It’s like government run healthcare: so bad we only give it to our heroes, the troops
Re Zohran’s grocery store plans- the government already runs discount grocery stores ALL OVER THE WORLD.
They are called commissaries and they are on every US military base.
No one has ever had a problem with their existence

remember when Elon Musk straight up performed a Nazi salute, twice, on stage, and the NYT was like "hmm, huh, what can this mean, who can say"
Zohran Mamdani, with a record of anti-Israel activism, won over some Jews in the New York City mayoral primary, but confirmed other Jews' worst fears about the American left.
Mamdani’s Success Spotlights a Deepening Rupture Among U.S. Jews
While Zohran Mamdani won over some Jewish supporters, other Jewish Democrats suggested that concerns about their community’s safety are being dismissed in a movement and a city they helped build.

I guess it's good to know that there is a line for elite conduct somewhere but it is depressing how it's more commonly drawn in response to breaches of etiquette rather than, say, dropping of bombs or withdrawals of food aid
One of Norway's largest fuel companies just announced that they will no longer refuel US Navy vessels after Trump’s treatment of Zelenskyy.
“It made us sick... We encourage all Norwegians and Europeans to follow our example.”

So - I've actually led Ebola outbreak response at USAID.
This is bunk from Elon. They have laid off most of the experts, they're bankrupting most of the partner orgs, have withdrawn from WHO, and muzzled CDC.
What's left is a fig-leaf effort to cover their asses politically.

FYI, folks from Bluesky. Reporters at The NYT, among other news organizations, are now generating a giant wave of accountability stories about the new Trump era. Reading these stories, sharing them, is a form of accountability as well. It is a form of participatory democracy too. Substance matters.
