The attempted mugging of a visiting president was about the world war that Musk, Trump, and Vance have chosen. If we attend to what Vance and Trump said yesterday, we can work our way to the unreason of American policy, and to the chaos that will follow.

“The Founding generation believed that oaths have consequences, binding those who took them to a course of action.”
As applied to the incoming president, that’s unfortunately wishful thinking. If you’re listening tomorrow, let that sink in.

I’m always looking for things that explain a lot but that people have a hard time remembering.
Examples: Air is stuff. Pee comes from blood. All land vertebrates have a single common ancestor. Venus is bright enough to cast visible shadows. Clouds are heavy. Bones are alive.
Any others you know?

I’m planning on a rewatch that ends just in time to start season 2. I can’t bear to wait, again, after that season 1 finale, even for a few minutes.

On Dec.7, 1941, the date FDR rightly said would “live in infamy,” Japan launched its sneak attack on Pearl Harbor. But without it we might never have declared war on England’s side in its battle to save civilization from Hitler and the axis powers, and we might face a fascist future. But wait . . .

Republicans Built an Ecosystem of Influencers. Some Democrats Want One, Too.
Democrats were badly outflanked online in the election, and progressive influencers are now trying to create networks to be a left-wing answer to Turning Point USA.
