Thousands of African Americans fought for the British during the Revolution—then fled the United States to avoid a return to enslavement. Andrew Lawler on the journey of the Black Loyalists:

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

America was born of two traditions: no kings and white supremacy.

They’re fundamentally incompatible. But the latter always was compelled to present some allegiance to the former. And it turns out that was the only glue holding us together?

The Case for the Forever Shutdown Senate Democrats actually allowing the GOP to stop funding the government is only the first step. Now they have to make the case that Trump’s government is illegitimate.

“Let Republicans have the literal blood of American citizens on their hands—and make that the central issue of the shutdown. Otherwise, enjoy having your health care subsidy debate in the gulags these people would happily send us all to. I hear that poll-tests great.”

Or that they’ll honor any deal they make? They wiped their collective butts with the last budget and the CR. They don’t want a budget, they want Ds to get dirty with them, to give up any contrast, to cancel their crimes through complicity. Don’t do it.

I’m still processing what happened this morning.

Is it now the administration’s position that the U.S. military does not observe or adhere to the laws of war?

Was thinking the same.

Parliament burning

Protestors in Nepal overthrew the government in less than 48 hours due to corruption. They refused a curfew, spread protests across all cities, fought police in roaming street battles, burnt down politicians' houses, stole military weapons, stormed the parliament & burnt it, forced the PM to resign.

You just meant white supremacy is bad, but white people love it. Fify. I'm sorry too.

Nope.

Air Force Academy cancels lecture after discovering speaker disparaged By Mary Shinn Aug 27, 2025

All of the U.S. military service academies are canceling lectures and ceremonies which feature speakers critical of President Trump. Dark times.

Over the decades I have spoken at all of the service academies and War Colleges. They've all known I was "a critic" of many policies

This is a really, really ominous development

(AFAcad cancelling a speaker, in endowed-lecture series, because she has criticized Trump.)
