The Supreme Court’s newest decision could make it impossible to end the shutdown How do you negotiate with a man who can break his promises at any time?

The SC allowing Trump to refuse to spend Congressionally appropriated funds makes budget negotiations impossible. This is breakdown of constitutional order stuff.

Scuttlebum, from what little I’ve found thus far, was featured in a series of posters displayed at the Damage Control Training Center at Philadelphia. Aside from his illustrator (Bil Sullivan), that’s it. I’ve found nothing else.

Thank you for the live-action shot of me at #McMullen2025, Mark! hope everyone who attended—standing room only!!—enjoyed our panel on damage control.

I plan to do *something* with The [Twenty] Tragedies of Scuttlebum: The Navy’s Damage Control Caricature, so stay tuned!

I ran into Dr. Ed Marolda (whose work I low-key fangirl over) at #McMullen2025, and he told me that my chapter in the forthcoming volume 𝘚𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘺 𝘚𝘦𝘢𝘴: 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘜𝘚 𝘕𝘢𝘷𝘺 𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘌𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘝𝘪𝘦𝘵𝘯𝘢𝘮 𝘞𝘢𝘳 required **no edits** 🥹

He hopes @usni.org will release the volume in 2026. 📖 I can’t wait.
