New and fascinating from Bernard Harcourt.
I just posted an essay on Marco Rubio’s speech this morning at the Munich Security Conference 2026. It is an extraordinary historical fabulation about Western civilization and needs to be dissected to get the full import of these Hegelian times. Read here: open.substack.com/pub/bernardh...

It doesn’t say it as directly, but at its core all of this stuff is Calhounism and Dred Scott: An assertion that the Declaration of Independence and U.S. Constitution were conceived in purely racial terms and to include exclusively the white race.
The Rubio speech really is appalling, and if you haven’t read it yet, you should.

We don't prosecute fare evasion in Winnipeg, so it would be misleading to publish it. We *do* prosecute criminal assault charges against drivers and passengers, and an overwhelming share of those assaults are committed by people who aren't paying a fare.

i think this is what drives me nuts. people talk about how, say, the UN was founded by "starry eyed idealists" who didn't understand "reality." the truth is that the UN was founded by those who had just fought and *won* the bloodiest war in human history.

Best I can tell, rationale for bombing Syria is retaliation against remnants of ISIS (who Trump previously declared defeated) for killing US troops there.

US didn’t intervene against ISIS in 2014 due to threats against the homeland.

And Trump admin doesn’t seem to be claiming any such threat now.

Free piece just released. Marco Rubio called on tolerant, democratic, liberal Europe to destroy itself and embrace a Trump-like future. He received a standing ovation and we are told some people are reassured. If so, Europe will deserve everything coming its way. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

One point I’ve been banging on about in interviews the last few weeks is that the mere threat of the use of force by the U.S. President is illegal both under Article 2(4) of the UN Charter but also the U.S. Constitution by virtue of the Take Care Clause.
