"The recent drone attack in NATO airspace serves a triple test for Poland, Europe, and NATO, as any weak response could embolden Russia." A quote from Cordelia Buchanan Ponczek and Joel Linnainmäki from FIIA Comment: Russia's drone incursions: A triple test for Poland, Europe, and NATO.

Excellent Substack convo with @timkmak.bsky.social and @mcfaulmike.bsky.social. In addition to previews of Amb McFaul’s book, an almost perfect short outline by Mak about the rise of new journalism following a discussion of ABC’s Kimmel removal. This is the new way to « news. »

Some of these cabinet officials are acting like presidential immunity applies to them. They might need to read that case.

Trump Admin. Cancels Dozens More Grants, Hitting Civics, Arts, and Higher Ed. The multi-year initiatives are abruptly losing funding midway through their grant periods.

Here are the details of Trump's $1.2-billion call to remake UCLA in a conservative image The Times describes the details, for the first time, of the 28-page proposal the Trump administration has made to remake the UCLA campus.

So much for State’s rights. Trump and administration attempt to make UCLA over in a conservative image and force Californians to give the Feds our money from our university taxes. It’s a whole state assault against taxpayers. www.latimes.com/california/s...

I’ve read most of the birthday book and come to a disturbing conclusion. We are not all alike “deep down”. We don’t all want the same things. Epstein’s friends are terrible people. They all knew he was raping girls. They are shallow, cruel, crass, antisocial and suffer from arrested development.
