This isn’t a peace plan. It’s a ceasefire. Why is the media calling it a peace plan?

Apparently, they don’t hand out a Nobel Peace Prize to those who negotiated a ceasefire they had sabotaged a year ago just to get elected.

I sense a pardon on its way.
A tweet by Jacob Shamsian reads: “The Wall Street Journal reports that Ghislaine Maxwell had a meeting with an unknown person in her new prison camp, during which the entire prison was on lockdown. Inmates say she’s getting unusually favorable treatment by the prison.”

I’d estimate something like 99% of white American adults have no clue how their government actually works—School House Rock stuff. Basic civics.

I can’t help but think today about how many young people were savaged on social media, branded as anti-semites and abandoned by their schools for daring to call for a ceasefire. I remember saying that it was the first time I can remember that calling for ceasefire was regarded as a hostile demand.

We are forever cursed to be trapped in the ongoing Story of Trump: he makes things unimaginably worse, and then reaps credit from Republicans, the media, and a certain flavor of anti-Democratic leftist for partly fixing his own fuck-ups.
