When we were deployed, some Afghans risked their lives to help us. Now Trump wants to send them out to be killed by the Taliban.

Been really enjoying these Instagram videos by Peter Glomb, a Swiss-trained, American watchmaker at Wristcheck. Here, he's repairing a rare version of the Patek 96, first introduced in 1932 and widely regarded as the watch that set the template for dress watches.

Few acts in history have done more to incentivize political violence than the January 6th pardons. And virtually every mainstream Republican supported letting them all out.
