The number of leaders in history who have made dumb claims about short wars and been massively wrong…..is very, very, high.

Bet the rate’s even higher for illegal warfare.

I personally was deeply appalled that there was a Polymarket betting market where people wagered on someone's death.

In unrelated news, I wonder what the oil markets are going to do tomorrow.

Is there a common theme for stripping of birthright citizenship? For example, across countries and across times, was it used solely as a tool for oppression?

Screenshot of a tweet from x.com by Senator Dave McCormick that reads: Now would be a good time for Democrats to drop their opposition to DHS funding and pass the bill to support our homeland security.
