“opération du sauvetage en cours”

i delight to inform you that once again we are getting brutally namemogged by the French

the main partisan distinction in foreign policy is simply racism: whether one understands that non-white people have also heard “we shall fight on the beaches, we shall never surrender” and take it just as seriously as white people

Trump Administration Set to Suspend Jones Act to Tame Oil Prices By Jennifer A. Dlouhy and Ari Natter 03/12/2026 10:47:10 [BN] (Bloomberg) -- The Trump administration plans to issue temporary waivers for a century-old maritime law requiring American-built ships be used to transport goods between US ports as part of its effort to stop surging oil prices, according to people familiar with the matter. The 30-day waivers for the Jones Act would allow foreign tankers to help supply refiners on the East Coast with fuel from the Gulf Coast and elsewhere in the US, according to the people, who were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly. It comes as President Donald Trump considers multiple options to stem the dramatic rise in crude and gasoline amid the war in Iran. On Wednesday, the administration announced it would release 172 million barrels from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve as part of a coordinated effort with other nations to unleash 400 million barrels into the world market.

I hope I'm wrong but I've settled on the idea that unless the next Democratic president is a generational talent with a sharp focus and an iron will we can pack this whole thing up and go home

Mamdani is considering ending free street parking in NYC. This would be another huge boost to NYC residents' quality of life, reducing traffic in ways that would be comparable to congestion pricing. And it would be another step in ending suburban free-riding on NYC.

CBS tonight talked about “a person with an IED outside Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s home.”

but… only about the cops. Mamdani’s name was mentioned *once*. no discussion about it being a hate crime or happening during a Trump-affiliated “anti-Islam protest”.

insane double standard for Muslims.

The case of temporary visitors was more complicated at common law. The parents, if lawfully present, were under the temporary protection of the sovereign. That is why one judge in a famous case, Lynch v. Clarke, held in 1844 that a child born of temporary sojourners was a citizen. But the rule was contested because of increasing international travel and the resulting dual allegiances. Joseph Story suggested that an exception for temporary visitors would be a “reasonable qualification” to the rule. Henry St. George Tucker in his treatise stated flatly that temporary visitors fell outside the common-law

I'm afraid I can't just sit here and say nothing when another law professor gives false testimony to Congress about the meaning of the Fourteenth Amendment.

Ilan Wurman has given false testimony to Congress, being fully on notice of the falsity. I do not think this is fairly debatable. 1.

Pretty crazy how important the blockade of a trade route is right now

Highland Park mayor: Why our town is re-examining DART Mayor of Highland Park says voters should consider leaving DART. His town subsidizes other cities and receives minimal service.

And now the urban island Park Cities are seeking an exit too, justification is the rest of the growing metro didn't join and isn't serving why should we remain. But it also nicely lays out how the Texas Lege created this mess -- www.dallasnews.com/opinion/comm...

After revelations that companies like Ring have been selling home security footage to ICE, the most common defense of keeping a camera up seems to be, “But what if I’m stalked?”

And as a violence researcher, I’m just here to state for the record that police do not care about your security footage.

I hate this so much because there is no, and has never been any, demand to impose sharia law in this country.

On the other hand, we do have religious extremists currently stealing our freedom and those guys should stop.

thank you!!

have the demining abilities of the LCS been tested IRL before? i notice you say “more flexible” but not “better”

KENNEDY: You said, 'Republicans think can troll their way to ethnic cleansing.' Did I read that correctly?

BIER: DHS tweeted for 100m deportations. That would be ethnic cleansing!

K: You don't think it's hyperbolic?

B: I think advocating 100m deportations is ethnic cleansing. Yes. Your time is up

i wonder what it’s like as a country to have your leadership turned over to a next generation. must be nice
