In April 1990, Bush [I] dispatched a high-level Senate delegation...to convey his warm regards to his friend Saddam and to assure him that he should disregard irresponsible criticism from the “haughty and pampered press,” and that such miscreants had been removed from Voice of America. (1/2)

(1990) Detente raises further problems here. What John Kennedy called the “monolithic and ruthless conspiracy” has been regularly invoked to mobilize support for intervention abroad and state industrial management at home. Now these policies are jeopardized as the threat loses its credibility.

Aggression is fine if it’s in U.S. interests. It’s bad only if it’s opposed to U.S. interests...The United States can claim it’s opposed to aggression on ABC News without ridicule because we have a disciplined intellectual class who look the other way and/or lie as a matter of course. (1/2)

Reminder: we are being trained not to care about other people. It underlines the attacks on migrants, on DEI, on trans youth, on so-called "wokeness." Sure there are legitimate critiques but this is not about critiques. It's about supercharging capitalism's culture of uncare.

President George W. Bush — the lovable goofy grandpa who was celebrated in the press on the 20th anniversary of his invasion of Afghanistan — let down all the bars. He brought in the Baltic states and others [into NATO]. In 2008, he invited Ukraine to join NATO, poking the bear in the eye. (1/2)

Never in a million years would I have imagined that the U.S. would fail in its obligations to pay Fulbright scholars. It takes one failed monthly payment to destroy the trust that took 80 years to build.

Kaja Kallas just pronounced that the EU opts for continued war in Ukraine, until the aggressor (Russia) is... defeated. Ms Kallas is the EU's phoney foreign minister (for we do not have one, really). Even so, who authorised her to make this pronouncement? No one. That's who.

RIP Gene Hackman (1930-2025) He didn't look like your typical Hollywood star but he owned every scene he was in and nailed almost all the roles. He's undoubtedly one of the greatest to ever grace the medium. The World will certainly miss him.

Kaja Kallas, the belligerent, corrupt EU foreign affairs chief, travelled to Washington for talks with Marco Rubio. There, she was told that he had no desire to see her. A little later, Trump foreshadowed a 25% tariff on EU exports, adding: "The EU was created to screw the US".
