Gen Eric Shinseki was fired for saying the U.S. would need several hundred thousand troops to control Iraq. 1:50 was the troop to citizen ratio, put the bill over 300,000. The U.S. tried to do it with 145K, peaked at 170K. There are 10,000,000 Americans in LA County. 1:50 = 200,000 troops.

This story is horrifying. Scammers got people to pay thousands of dollars to hire a fake lawyer. To keep the scam going and keep the money flowing, the scammers also set up fake USCIS appointments, fake ICE check-ins, and fake court hearings. Worse, they told one guy to skip his real court hearing.

I ran an experiment, simultaneously posting articles on Bluesky and X, and then testing to see how many people actually clicked and read them. The numbers on Bluesky are higher, both because the X algorithm downranks journalism, and because Bluesky attracts readers, not just shitposters.

I wrote about the recent spate of anti-Zionist violence against American Jews and how such assaults just make Zionism's argument for it. "The unwitting agents of Zionism throughout history have been those unwilling to tolerate Jews in their own countries." Gift link to the full piece:

Liberals fear that if people act unruly, Trump will be able to impose totalitarian control. That gets things backwards. Trump is already imposing totalitarian control. That's what is driving people into the streets. It's too late to avoid this fight. We can be passive and lose—or give it our all.

If ICE were acting entirely within the law and maintaining good conditions in all its facilities, they would not be turning Congresspeople away. But they clearly aren't. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/08/n...
