I will say if that whole military meeting had been an email it would have been a pretty weird email

Senior military leaders are, overall, very smart

Nearly all are broadly experienced, around the world. They have spent their careers in orgs more representative of the whole US than most corps, law firms, finance firms, univs, media orgs.

They have learned to judge character. And honesty.

Audio of Adam Driver and Scarlett Johansson arguments from Marriage Story used to scare off wolves in the US β€˜Wolves need to know humans are bad,’ says US department of agriculture representative, explaining unusual strategy to save cattle

Makes sense to me!

Apparently, inflation is bad, but we must impose tariffs to raise the cost of cheap imports so people buy expensive American goods. We can re-shore manufacturing, but to be cost competitive, we have to fully automate factories, replacing American workers with robots.

My cold dead heart might be getting a slight adrenaline injection over this one... Trying to keep my expectations low, but this seems pretty bad for him 😈

Sitting here with COVID (which I had on my 40th birthday 2 days ago πŸ‘ŽπŸΌπŸ‘ŽπŸΌπŸ‘ŽπŸΌ), thinking about how much I hate this timeline.

Honestly, it's easier to just have your head in the sand these days.

We in the press need to do some real soul-searching over our failure to talk more about Biden’s memory lapses. In the meantime, we’re going to completely ignore Trump’s obvious advanced dementia and even more obvious personality disorder.

Harvard today, your institution tomorrow.

It's all part of the Project 2025 plan to destroy high education in America.

All leading US universities depend on federal funding and tuition dollars from international students. They severely curtailed the former. Now they're eliminating the latter.

This is the stuff of authoritarian regimes. There isn't even the pretense that this is anything but persecution, unbound by law.

Nothing justifies murder. If you think working for the Israeli embassy, or worse being Jewish, justifies these heinous murders please go ahead and block me now to save me the trouble

America's ability to recruit top talent from other countries is one of the most important things keeping us a superpower in the world. Like how is this not extremely obvious to literally everyone? WTF.

The simple truth is that Trump believes that, if we send money to a county in exchange for stuff, we've just lost because now they have our money

screenshot of some tweets. @hassankhan is posting about how it will be difficult for large companies eg Boeing to onshore their complex international manufacturing and supply chains on timeline shorter than many years

user @maishamazingira responds that it should be trivial to do in under 24 months because of "part that can be 3-D printed" and "many americans have a garage open for parts printing business"

chairman trump, the people yearn for a great leap forward. we will revitalize american manufacturing with a fleet of garage 3d printers that stretches from sea to shining sea.
