Witkoff Advised Russia on How to Pitch Ukraine Plan to Trump
US presidential envoy Steve Witkoff, fresh from the triumph of the Gaza peace deal, held a phone call last month with a senior Kremlin official to suggest they work together on a similar plan for Ukraine — and that Vladimir Putin should raise it with Donald Trump.

One way to evaluate run games in college football is to compare scheme and OL (yards before contact) with RB ability (yards after contact):

Further right => Better scheme/OL
Further up => Better RB talent/ability

My two hottest Star Wars takes are that we should be ranking the roughly movie length arcs. ANd when doing it that way; Andor, Clone Wars, and Rebels arcs fill out the top ten without a movie making it.

I do like this list though. All I would add is the Aftermath series but the audiobook version.
The “Jack Canon” pan-medium SW order:

* ANH
* ROTJ
* ESB
* Andor
* R1
* Doctor Aphra omnibus
* Jedi: Fallen Order
* Solo
* Hunt for Jocasta Nu
* Thrawn trilogy
* Rebels
* Dark Forces
* The Mandalorian
* Clone Wars
* BoBF Ep5
* Prequels 3-in-1 fan edit
* Vader Immortal series
* Battlefront II (2017)

Sen. Mark Kelly has released a statement.

"If this is meant to intimidate me and other members of Congress from doing our jobs and holding this administration accountable, it won't work. I've given too much to this country to be silenced by bullies..."

It’s neither the lawful answer nor is it the oath they took.
BLITZER: I want to be precise. Should members of the US military obey clearly illegal orders?

McCLAIN: You're asking an enlisted person for their opinion on what they think is legal. That's a pretty slippery slope. Follow your commander in chief. That's the oath that you took

(Not a no!)

The Thunder are on pace to go 77-5, lost their only game of the year by two points, are outscoring their opponents by 16.9 points per game, and as of now are scheduled to have three picks in the lottery. Also their second best player has yet to play in a single game.

My infantry Bn had a really hard time parsing the gender and sexuality issues of Southern Helmand.

When people say, "you wouldn't want a 'purple haired gender studies major' in the Marines" I reply "YES we desperately needed them!" We had teams of anthropologists who published studies for us.

If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand”

Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

X rolled out a new feature overnight showing where accounts are based. This network of “Trump-supporting independent women” that claimed to be “real Americans” are based in Thailand.

The photos were stolen from European models & posts pushed pro-Trump lines while targeting Islam and LGBTQ people.

Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.

My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

We came to LA as refugees from the USSR in 1991. Life wasn’t easy, but we persevered and, I dare say, came to contribute something of worth to this nation.

Had I experienced the following when I was a boy, I don’t know what would have become of me.

I once knew a Federal bank examiner, and one time someone asked him why we had to KEEP inspecting banks over and over. He basically said every new batch of business school grads invents bank fraud from first principles.

The underlying cause of every bubble - debt masquerading as financial innovation - depends on not just short financial memory & speculative neophytism, but reinventing jargon of finance, like how each generation of kids has new ways to say same things.
