Warnock: "Any nation that tolerates this kind of violence year after year, decade after decade in random places, on our college and school campuses, without doing all that we can to stop it is broken and in need of moral repair."

Even Derek's reply guys are shooters, do not come for that man.
I was right. It was a meth lab. Its on the dea's clandestine lab registry. Incident august 4th, 2004. Has probably been abandoned for the last 20 years.

The 800 lbs gorilla in the room of course is that youre not likely to get this capability any cheaper than the just canceled Connie FFG, which is/was the minimally viable Burke flightI replacement
You need a cheap, potentially expendable AEGIS-capable frigate to screen your big assets. You need cost-effective anti-drone SHORAD. You need enough anti-shipping capability to render the Strait of Taiwan a death trap.
And so on.
And so on.

Look at those hiring numbers under Biden-Harris vs. the numbers now under Trump-Vance.
“.. The US lost an average of 4k private-sector jobs per month over the last 3 months (ADP data), the first 3-month decline since the 2020 recession.”

I for one am shocked...SHOCKED...that an alcoholic talking head with no meaningful leadership or government experience and well documented anger issues is finding themselves in over their head trying to run the world's largest bureaucracy.
Bad news for Hegseth, it turns out the Pentagon is a big bureaucracy filled with people who got there because they know how to fight bureaucratic battles and they will wait for you to lie about something then leak details about it. Who knew?
A most important question on the Sept. 2 double-tap strike is who had "target engagement authority" (TEA).
Wall Street Journal:
"A Defense Department official ... said Hegseth was the 'target engagement authority,' the key figure who authorized the strike."

Notably, Jeffries has been saying this occasionally on the Sunday shows for months now. It's a "slogan" in the sense that it's how he summarizes the Democratic approach to social welfare, not in the sense that they're slapping it on bumper stickers and making ads out of it.

My favorite theory of the origin of the Hamburger ground beef sandwich is that it was invented by Jewish immigrants based on what they thought Americans ate like. A whole ecosystem of copies with no original

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.
We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."

Somehow pre-Plaza Accords Japanese industrial policy has returned.
there's an old stereotype of china as outcompeting america because of masses of cheap labor. but as michael pettis puts it, contemporary chinese firms don't act as if labor is free. they act as if capital is free
“Yang Jiemin, VP of the state-owned company behind the port, said its highly automated operations require 60% fewer workers than traditional ports. It underscores one advantage Chinese companies have in deploying AI versus the U.S.: no independent labor unions.” www.wsj.com/tech/ai/ai-r... (🎁🔗)
