Someone finally explains the Battle Of Gettysburg in language we can all understand. It all makes sense now. Robert E Lee told them not to fight uphill. This must have been after he ordered them to fight uphill and saw the results.

To be sure, many of these people said on video that they support Hamas.

The damage made by the US against Ukrainian military capabilities is irreversible.

This 7-month long betrayal has irreversible consequences for a lot of decent people who have been fighting against raw evil.

It's not just Krugman. Almost every historian who has looked at the origins of money, thousands of years ago, has noted that it has some similarity to a contract for debt, in that it is useless by itself, and only becomes useful if someone else is willing to eventually give you…

Today, Ukraine lost Pavlo - the hero that changed Ukraine and had to continue to do so.

Pavlo defended Ukraine with 59th brigade. He was unique, brave and vocal.

We also supported him and his unit back in the day. R.I.P.

Remember the price of freedom, my friends.

What are we doing for Ukraine today?

I'm re-posting this today because today I was in a meeting where exactly this problem played out again, with the product designer getting overruled by marketing, because the product designer didn't have a bunch of studies and statistics they could quote. But the product designer…

COL (Ret) Jeff in 🇦🇹 Former SecDef Rumsfeld once famously said, 'You go to war with the army you have, not the army you might want or wish to have at a later time.'

That applies not only to us, but also to our adversaries. We found out after the Cold War ended that the Soviets were not ten feet…

Pokahontas 1244 I'd say wars of revanichism driven by nationalist ideology and involving ethnic cleansing and genocide are more appropriately labeled Nazi, and that's what you're whitewashing.

These canoes, in Italy, are 7,000 years old. This discovery would not have surprised a historian such as Fernand Braudel. He would have seen this as an example of the 'Longue durée'.

The US policy on Ukraine has failed. The US has not delivered sufficiently strong arms in time because of flawed analysis, believing that it would be harmful for the US to stand up to Putin.
Unless President Biden sacks all the people who misled him so badly, he will be blamed.
Clean up!

The realization that there is no cavalry of smart people that are going to save you often wrecks people

I’d like to take this moment to inform you that Iran is the current Chair of the UN Conference on Disarmament.

The UN is a joke.

In 2022, a Democratic House approved 4 aid requests to Ukraine totalingi $75 billion. Since then, a Republican House has refused all aid to Ukraine. It's not 'the United States' that is abandoning its friends. It is the Trump Republicans. theatlantic.com/politics/archi…

“It is perverse to tell a party not to attack the war machine of the aggressor while not delivering military aid to the victim.The administration’s pathological fear of escalation and of Ukrainian success is one reason for the death of so many Ukrainians.” thehill.com/policy/defense…

This is what I expect. Trump is not the same person that he was in 2016 and his financial problems will damage his ability to build a campaign.

We just witnessed a catastrophic and historic failure of American/Allied deterrence.

There should be no celebration. No cheers. This is the new normal unless we change course. More chaos is coming.

Andrew A. Michta implores everyone to put down the champagne. 👇

This.

Last night was by no means a success by any metric. The unthinkable, an attack from Iranian home turf on Israel, has taken place.

Like the invasion of Ukraine, when ‘expert’ talking heads said such a war was inconceivable, the inconceivable occurred. We are letting the…

For me, it's been the American return to economic dominance. Growing up in the 1980s I was overwhelmed everyday with America's decline and America's deindustrialization. In 1990 I thought America had no economic future, that it was doomed to permanent decline. But then, suddenly,…
