Pardon, I was running to get my kids from school and outpaced my reasoning. This is Rear Adm. Paul Lanzilotta, commander of the Ford strike group. He will soon be tasked with executing illegal orders. We will see whether Professional Military Education instilled in him the integrity to refuse.

The Peace President is sending the Ford carrier strike group to illegally murder Venezuelan, Colombian, Trinidadian etc fishermen. Let’s see if the Ford commander is going to obey illegal orders

Might not be the greatest time to have a political talk in an outdoor setting, but if you’re at the Baltimore Book Festival on Saturday at noon, come on by the 32nd Street Stage!

Hey Baltimore. Want to talk about the lineage of all this cascading, compounding, militarized social repression? And maybe also talk about representing it in popular fiction? Come out on Saturday to the 32nd St Stage of the Baltimore Book Festival on Saturday at noon!
