I struggle so much with this b/c, on the one hand, I'm incredibly empathetic to the frustration and grief of a community fighting against an insane and overwhelming bureaucracy... ...and, on the other hand, LA has been like this for 3 decades and these powerful people could have…

The latest Los Angeles liberal insanity: Here’s the producer of the Simpsons explaining how a city trying to recover from the biggest disaster in its history has somehow prioritized forcing his iconic tree house, which had been a fixture in the community, to finally be removed.

Just had a fascinating lunch with a 22-year-old Stanford grad. Smart kid. Perfect resume. Something felt off though. He kept pausing mid-sentence, searching for words. Not complex words - basic ones. Like his brain was buffering. Finally asked if he was okay. His response…

This election has really divided us. One guy found out his parents voted Harris for president and he said he's going to stop visiting their graves.


First day of class was today; students spent the day getting to know their faculty and classmates, making sure they could sign in to our computer systems, and going through safety training. Who thinks we'll set another enrollment record this year?

One of the best western sources on how Russia will respond to the Ukrainian invasion.

Russia begins its response to Ukraine's incursion into Kursk. Multiple ministries are involved and the command structure is still forming. Someone in Ukraine knew what they were doing and exploited a weak seam in Russian C2. A few important issues to watch: 🧵

Y'all. Seriously. Hardly anyone even understands the unbelievable depth of Tolkien's linguistic genius. If ever there was an artist just straight up making jokes that only he would ever get, omg. So get this, it's epic. You know the "Brandywine River" in Lord of the Rings?

I commanded dozens of major bases in Europe for 4 years as Supreme Allied Commander of NATO & Commander, US European Command. We had plenty of scares, but nothing that required this level of alert. Clearly there is a deep concern and that is consistent with everything I can see.…
