Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far:

A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

A proper headline. Take note, @washingtonpost.com

Billionaires of the cyber industry have laid siege on the U.S. government.

Is it techno-­fascism? Sure! Should it concern us that Trump appears to be a trojan horse for Silicon Valley’s most neo-reactionary ambitions? Absolutely!

It's not brains. It's bile.

Let’s be clear: Israel, an occupier, has no authority under international law to board or divert the Madleen.

This is a hijacking, plain and simple. A hijacking of a UK-registered ship, with multiple *European* citizens on board.

Does the EU or UK government have anything to say? Anything??

What’s the opposite of all in? One might say limp, perhaps flaccid, definitely anti-anaconda.

Trump’s ‘fear factor’: Scientists go silent as funding cuts escalate Many worry about retribution. But for others, speaking out is worth the risk

Great article with lots of perspectives from scientists who are scared to speak out — and other scientists who are scared of what will happen if they don't. Trump & Musk & Kennedy are devastating U.S. research and setting progress back decades

Since leaving Twitter, I had forgotten Jonathan Turley existed. Apparently he is still obsessed with me. It is amazing people still pay him to teach them law. He is just Mike Lindell with tenure.
