I remember very clearly lots of people telling me some years ago that Netflix was in deep trouble from HBO MAX and this is a very funny coda to all of that
Also David Zaslav is maybe the most calamitously bad executive in media

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.), to reporters, after viewing video footage of the U.S. strikes on alleged drug boats in the Caribbean on Sept. 2:
"Righteous strikes." "Entirely lawful."

My impression is that Putin has outlined a vision to Trump where the U.S. withdraws from Europe and Asia, and in return is given a free hand to focus on dominating the Americas. This is where the Greenland and Canada annexation talk comes from.

It would be a lot more effective if we just stopped imposing punitive tariffs on everyone and offered win-win economic partnership instead.

The notion that we're going to prevent Chinese investment in Latin America BY FORCE is a bit far-fetched.

Wait, does this mean we're going to oppose European countries re-establishing colonies in the Americas? Oh, what a relief.
Reaffirming the Monroe Doctrine is a choice given the term has literally never been used in the history of the NSS. Including under the first Trump administration!

It’s all transparently bullshit and immune to rationality, but if struggling to stabilize half a burning boat to avoid drowning is “getting back in the fight,” what they’re really saying is there’s nothing the survivors could have done to avoid being killed. And that definitely isn’t the law.

Publishing all the other boat murder videos but refusing to release the one of the two survivors being killed is an admission they know exactly how bad it looks. There's no other distinction to draw there, no reason to publish the others while withholding that one.

helps to think about the details like any regular crime you'd see on one of the 800 cop shows that run on TV constantly: these guys committed one set of murders, thought it over, and then decided to kill the witnesses as part of the coverup. mention of drugs is just jingling keys at this point

If you see John Roberts in person, be sure to tell him he’s a worse Chief Justice than Roger Taney (pronounced “tawny”). That’s a nerd burn that will hit him where it counts.

It's good—very good, and very important—that district courts keep issuing these 100-page rulings upholding the law. It must be incredibly dispiriting to see them overturned in a two-page, lawless, unsigned order, but please, keep them coming. They expose SCOTUS' corruption like nothing else.

Renaming the Institute for Peace after yourself as you defend extrajudicial executions and prepare for war in Venezuela is really leaning into the mad dictator shtick.
