It’s possible that they didn’t think of this and also possible that they did and want it to happen or don’t care. The one foreign policy issue these people claimed to care about was communist China but they have essentially given up — it’s all too hard for…

These are the places where American students learn about the world. These cuts are one sign — I know there are others — of a country that is shrinking away. https://www.dailytarheel.com/article/a4ee07aa-19e3-4fb2-89f0-9e2526a003df

Like many others I was probably formed by Rob Reiner’s movies more than I realized. I met him once and was struck by the practical efforts he made to translate his powerful understanding of people and how they relate to one another into a more durable and…

The president of Ukraine in a town that the president of Russia claims Russia occupies. Ukrainians can defend themselves if they are helped by their allies. We have a simple job here — help courageous people who are defending themselves in horrible…

Putin sits in Moscow claiming that his armies have taken a town that the Ukrainian president is personally visiting. There are cowardly tyrants and there are courageous elected leaders and it is good to know the difference. [contains quote post or other…

The Kremlin likes to exercise rhetorical dominance over Trump and they say this in the safe knowledge that we won’t invade or that if we do it will be a disaster. Trump might think of Putin as a friend but that’s not how Russia sees the US. The US is to be…

The mass deportation of undocumented people was one of Hitler’s largest coercive policies before the war. This set off a chain of events which can give us a useful perspective on where we are now. https://snyder.substack.com/p/self-terrorism
