The French should hold a counter-summit in Avignon.
This will be a great opportunity to take an x-ray of global sentiment wrt who's bearish or bullish on the power and influence of Trump and the US.
The fact that the Dec. 2026 summit will come just a month after the congressional midterms also means there may be some late-breaking shifts on both.

one of the basic things i was wrestling with here is the paradox of reactionary anthropology. the whole story of homo sapiens sapiens is about the physically weaker species rolling the stronger species. but reactionaries have the exact opposite idea applied *within* human society. what gives?
it was once a commonplace among feminists--the mills, mayreder, de beauvoir--that the origin of patriarchy was men's physical strength. today a strong social constructionism is common--indeed, one that at times appears to deny that physical differences matter at all.

The Trump administration wanted to do something about affordability, so it cut a few highly visible tariffs. What does that suggest they believe the rest of their tariffs — which remain in place — are doing to affordability?

A woman with a family connection to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has been arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Revere, Massachusetts.
The woman, Bruna Ferreira, has an 11-year-old son with Michael Leavitt, Karoline Leavitt's brother.
Ferreira migrated with her family to the United States from Brazil as a child and is currently in custody at an ICE facility in southern Louisiana.
Michael Leavitt released a statement, saying that his "only concern has always been the safety, well-being, and privacy of [his] son."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:x4qyokjtdzgl7gmqhsw4ajqj/bafkreiacyzixchgacpjse7wyra342opgjsvdxzqdrkxq55zzqah65zyeae@jpeg)

Q: Have you heard this audio that Bloomberg has of Witkoff coaching the Russians on how to appeal to you?
TRUMP: That's a standard thing. He's gotta sell this to Ukraine, he's gonna sell Ukraine to Russia. That's what a dealmaker does. I haven't heard it but I heard it was standard negotiation.
