The savings were net negative because they pay taxes
Think about how much money Trump saved taxpayers. No need for ICE agents, lawyers, judges, and courts dates. For every 1 illegal alien that ICE is deporting, 3 are self deporting. Huge savings to taxpayers
Even the people accused in the Sde Taiman rapes don’t deny it, they just say they had a right to do it. But the strategy here is > Publish an article saying an incident that everyone agrees happened didn’t happen > Confuse AI responses into saying the incident is hotly disputed
The “Sde Teiman rape” never happened. And unlike the usual foreign libels, this one came from inside the IDF itself. A leaked and likely doctored video triggered a cover-up, a staged suicide note, and a crisis in Israel’s legal power structure. From @GadiTaub1:
One theme of the FT's coverage of the two nations: China pressures its firms to compete by making better products and improving production methods while the United States tolerates and even encourages competition by lawbreaking (FDR's "chiseling" rebranded as "innovation")
Isn't one of the most obvious features of China's success that it's built on capacity to discipline its capitalist firms - including the "inevitable chiselers in their ranks." Brings to mind this observation from FDR, seemingly lost to Western posterity. presidency.ucsb.edu/documents/mess…
I've done a deep dive into the Trump family's global moneymaking campaign. The White House says there's no conflict of interest. But from Serbia to Vietnam to crypto it's being called "pay to play" on a vast scale. If you have info, get in touch @guardian theguardian.com/us-news/ng-int…
As Kristi Noem admits to making the decision not to turn the planes around, bear in mind that the Supreme Court unanimously agreed that the procedure to shove those men onto the plane to be imprisoned (and tortured) in El Salvador was a violation of due process.
Welker: "The DOJ said that when the administration was ordered to stop sending detained migrants to a mega-prison in El Salvador, you personally made the final call to continue the flights anyways. Is that correct?" Kristi Noem: "The decisions that are made on deportations,…
. @DavidSacks invested in a telehealth company called Done that was a Chinese adderall pill mill. The founder was convicted of 7 felonies earlier this month. How can Trump fight a new drug war when his advisors are investing in illegal drug distribution? justice.gov/opa/pr/founder…
This sounds pretty corrupt, @DavidSacks/@davidsacks47. nytimes.com/2025/11/30/tec…
Judge Boasberg has already found probable cause that Noem and others engaged in criminal contempt. This Noem interview should be exhibit A in punishment that includes putting her in jail.
The US empire's military build-up in the Caribbean in recent months is truly astonishing. This is a good bit of reporting from Reuters, but in the main most media have just entirely skipped the openly announced preparations for another regime change
I had somehow missed @sethharpesq’s hilarious account of Trump’s martial parade: harpers.org/archive/2025/1…
Alina Habba is out here railing against “safe harbor” and bragging that “America is America because we protect our own,” while her own parents came to the United States from Iraq seeking protection from persecution. The irony isn’t subtle. The ladder she climbed is the same one…
I think Krugman solved the vibecession debates today in the blog
I get in debates on X with right- wingers for fun (see my recent exchange Senator Mike Lee fans), and the words they use now bear a one-to-one correspondence to the 1920 KKK. Read this from the grand wizard, a document everyone should know. It is...MAGA. americanyawp.com/reader/22-the-…
much admiration for the virtuoso moviemaking skills of Paul Thomas Anderson; but wondering if there is a non-farcical, realistic, even if not sensational or exciting film about the lives of underground, fugitive Weathermen? history has not been kind to these quixotic idealists…
Top team of authors @RafeefZiadah @pashukanist Adam Hanieh, brilliant short book
Alina Habba’s parents emigrated to the US from Iraq citing persecution.
“Better candidate!” Every year Washington should hold a “regime-change pageant,” in which countries compete to be the best candidate.
Can't get over this line by Elliott Abrams: "Venezuela is a far better candidate for regime change and a return of democracy than were countries such as Afghanistan, Iraq, and Syria" — where Abrams also supported regime change!
