We’ve seen where 'forever wars' lead. Diplomacy isn't a sign of weakness; it’s the only sustainable path to stability. We cannot afford another trillion-dollar conflictπŸ˜’

For years on my old blog I published the names of servicemembers who died in Iraq & Afghanistan. No other outlets were.

These are the first 4 Americans to die in the Iran War.
Capt. Cody A. Khork, 35
Sgt. 1st Class Noah L. Tietjens, 42
Sgt. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor, 39
Sgt. Declan J. Coady, 20

Declaring war against Iran won’t stop us from talking about the Epstein files.

We can multitask.

I predict The State of the Union will sound like an angry drunk who just got dropped by their other half on Valentine's Day.

It's going to be epically bitter and messy.

@barackobama.bsky.social: "When I was POTUS, I suppose I could have simply unilaterally ordered the military to go into some red state and harass and intimidate a governor or cut off funding for states that didn't vote for me... but that is contrary to how I think our democracy is supposed to work."

We are all passengers in Trump’s death cab The nihilism of the regime is its most terrifying attribute.

@davidrlurie.com explores Trump's "nihilistic ambitions" and the legacy of "utter and complete destruction" he is buildingβ€”an echo of Putin's "heedless destruction of his own country in pursuit of a pointless war that has gutted Russia’s prospects for the future."πŸ˜” open.substack.com/pub/aaronrup...
