Whoa, Koufax is here! It’s been a few years

“Obstacles are not a roadblock, obstacles are stepping stones… don’t fear failure. ” — Billy Wags

I was also 23 and nobody every called me a racist

And I’m conservative

Honestly I'm glad they picked Harvard to try out this novel "we're mad" legal theory of revoking tax-exempt status, given its infinite resources, deep network of powerful alumni, and law school attended by 142 sitting federal judges.

Good luck! 🫡

4) How do you save a country which doesn't even believe in its own ideals anymore?

3) The only way I see this being fixed is if Donald Trump so clearly mucks things up that NOBODY could conclude he succeeded, and I don't even know how we get there: I fear many Americans just stick it out until the end

Because this may be who we are

2) How do we even fix a country which voted for this?

Watching Americans vote for Donald Trump, twice, and then watch the GOP just stand by and let him burn the country down is beyond demoralizing: it's numbing, it's just another 'this is who we are now' moment of clarity

Eulogy for a Republic A former government official prepares to leave the United States.

1) Reading "Eulogy for a Republic" is heartbreaking and honestly I've felt similarly

Part of me wants to fight for America, a country I love, but there's another part that wonders if it's worth fighting for anymore?

My sympathies

At least you live in a proper country (the UK)

Fair enough

And Mearsheimer is the broken clock who was right once

Isn’t that even a little unfair to Sam Huntington?

It’s Time for Ukraine to Accept an Ugly Peace Seven things for Zelensky to keep in mind as cease-fire negotiations start.

I mean many Mearsheimer 'realists' I am not including our Dear Leader, who I think actually wants Russia to win

I am more referring to people like this

Honestly: I don't get what deal they think is so good for Ukraine to take? It's like they've just assumed Russia will accept Finlandization, when in reality they want Mongolia (from 1928-90)

Guardians Extend Bibee and add much needed stability to the rotation for the next half decade
