I hope that Mamdani understands that he'll stride into City Hall and find that the mechanisms and relationships of city governance are about as functional and up to date as the Chernobyl control room.

I just made a small donation to the Royal Canadian Legion for Remembrance Day. It is a token of this American's high regard for the Canadian armed forces, who have stood on guard for liberty and been our stalwart allies. I hope we will soon repair the damage we've done. Lest We Forget 🇺🇸 🇨🇦

Albert Hazlett, a distant cousin I think, was a member of John Brown's raid on the federal arsenal in Harper's Ferry on this day in 1859. Before his hanging, he wrote: "I am willing to die in the cause of liberty, if I had ten thousand lives I would willingly lay them all down for the same cause."

An early version of the "Gadsden flag" of the American Revolution. Some versions of this "Don't Tread on Me" flag have been associated with right-wing organizations, but the sentiment belongs to the true heirs of 1776 -- those who refuse to be governed by a modern wannabe king.

And I am sure he would be the *first* to reply that the Russian Navy can only boast one (1) nonfunctional rust bucket smoke-belching aircraft carrier, the Admiral Kuznetsov. www.janes.com/osint-insigh...
