Gutting US counterterrorism and federal law enforcement capacity was a bad idea.

Sorry to get so partisan. I know the president wants to see more political violence in the US, and thinks it's important for federal forces to prioritize crackdowns on nonviolent, noncriminal migrants. I just disagree.

I guess it’s a good thing we were so concerned about the right to speak our opinions being outlawed by a ruling class that we guaranteed it by making it the very first amendment in our Bill of Rights when we formed the country.

“To find top Kenyan runners, Stuetzel promoted the time trials widely. Still, he was shocked by the talent that arrived. In 2022, he recruited Doris Lemngole, who ended up at the University of Alabama. Within two years, she had won both track and cross-country national titles.”

A recruiting drive in Kenya is changing the face of U.S. college athletics. Time trials have become bitterly competitive as runners seek a way out of poverty.

It's not just that the United States has stopped trying to promote liberal democratic ideas internationally. It's that the United States is actively trying to promote the contrary. It's trying to turn more countries into Hungary.

I don't see how Tesla's Model 3 can survive if Benz can offer an alternative EV this cheap, with this kind of performance, on top of the 15% tariff that it's charged in the US.

Imagine what this model does to Tesla in Europe, where Benz pays no tariffs.

If the executive can unilaterally shift all functioning out of an congressionally established agency, then what is left of Congress’ lawmaking?

Why should Congress authorize executive agencies to do anything at all, ever?
