Bombing Iran Is Easy. What Comes Next Is Not. It comes down to a straightforward question: What’s the plan to translate military force into political change?

NEW: "It is true that air campaigns can destroy things. What they cannot do, by themselves, is build political outcomes."

Really superb piece from our @markhertling.bsky.social.

The U.S. does not need to annex Greenland to protect its security or economic interests. Doing so would weaken NATO, alienate us from Europe, and hand advantages to our adversaries. Read more in my latest Substack: michaelmcfaul.substack.com/p/invading-g...

The Longest Suicide Note in American History The Trump administration’s new National Security Strategy targets liberal democracy itself.

If we can't even identify our enemies then how can we fight them?

The crisis at the BBC shows how embattled and defensive serious news organisations have become - and how close they are to yielding, pre-emptively, and being overwhelmed, by authoritarian populists.

Anybody have any idea what they’re trying to hide with this puppet show? Is the big bill getting too much attention or is it something else?

The Trump administration has three wings you need to deal with: Fascist, Corporatist, and Incompetent

IMPORTANT: If you live in the United States or Canada, you’ve probably heard Trumpβ€˜s constant claim that the United States is β€œsubsidizing” Canada. It’s wrong of course, but here’s the best explanation I’ve seen about how & why it’s wrong. PLEASE WATCH & SHARE IT A LOT. Kudos to Andrew Chang & CBC.

The 100-Year Road to Car Dependency in the US October 8, 2024, marks the centennial of the publication of what would soon become the Los Angeles Traffic Ordinance β€” a landmark on the road toward our car-dominated status quo.


β€œAmericans did not choose car dependency. We didn’t vote for it, and it was not the winner in a free market competition. The real answer is complex, but a single turning point reveals an essential part of the story.”
