It just occurred to me that this is not the Putin playbook. This has Netanyahu all over it.

In the last few weeks we’ve watched ICE:

Pepper spray the Portland frog
Tear gas members of Chicago PD
Zip tie children
Grab Chicagoans from their beds in dead of the night
Open fire on a civilian in her car

Yet they say immigrants are the threat.

Protesters are the threat.

We know better.

A golden ram and a stone lion, found in a tomb at the archaeological site of Gonur Depe (2400-1600 BC) in Turkmenistan.

The finger in the background shows how small these figures are, demonstrating the extraordinary skill of the craftsmen.

I wrote about Ta-Nehisi Coates and Ezra Klein, why swallowing live frogs is a bad idea, and how context and history can release you from bright-kid syndrome, the illusion that you yourself are going to have every answer or fix the world.
You don't have to swallow frogs
Klein and Coates show that if you don't know what your core beliefs are, you're going to get played.

Hahahahahha I also loved that about it too. Just admitting you don’t know everything and putting your foot in your mouth and then fessing up also moved me

My Dearest Darling. I am writing to you from the front lines of war ravaged Portland. Just today I was elbowed by a hurried man in a waistcoat while in line for my double-shot-no-whip-moca-frapacino at the Starbucks on the corner. What is this world coming to? Send reinforcements.

A man was just chased and arrested outside of the Broadview ICE facility in Chicago. When legal observers from the National Lawyers Guild asked why, an agent threatened to arrest them too.
