Early reports that Russian and Syrian forces have fled Hama airbase.

More consequences of Putinโ€™s war in Ukraine - heโ€™s overcommitting troops to try to make progress in Ukraine and leaving himself vulnerable elsewhere.

Losing in two theaters at once is pretty impressive.

As Eisenhower Knew, Hegsethโ€™s โ€˜Warrior Ethosโ€™ Isnโ€™t What Wins Wars The U.S. defense secretaryโ€™s emphasis on warfighting ignores the other important factors that make a military cohesive and effective.

Eisenhower wanted a society made up of Americans who were citizens first and soldiers second, and of soldiers who can behave in polite society, effectively offering a counterargument to the โ€œwarrior ethosโ€ Pete Hegseth keeps pushing.

U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth seems to think it is a โ€œwarrior ethos.โ€ But as @profpaulpoast.bsky.social writes, Eisenhower offered a much stronger argument:

I just took a Tylenol and one of the side-effects was chronic curiosity about who else is in the Epstein Files. Ask your doctor if apprehending pedophiles is right for you.

Trumpโ€™s quest to fire Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve is now with the Supreme Court.
THIS CASE IS CLEARLY ABOUT HATRED OF AFRICAN AMERICANS.. Letโ€™s follow what the severely Conservative Supreme Court rules.

Donald Trump has always been CORRUPT And a King of Falsehoods and a success as written only on Fake Documents by corrupt and enemy subordinates.
With our Democracy and the U.S. Economy he is a DISMAL FAILURE - only a SHOWBOATER.. Just a Con Man.

We must end the scourge of gun violence in America.

We also need to have honest conversations about the ways internet platforms profit from fear, hatred, and division.

Both are vital to the future of this country.

The real issue isnโ€™t left vs right.

Itโ€™s not white vs black.

Itโ€™s not citizen vs immigrant.

Itโ€™s not gay vs straight.

The real issue is that a lot of powerful people have a vested interest โ€” and a lot of money invested โ€” in dividing us, and itโ€™s working.
