Remarquable article du NYT sur la grande divergence technologique entre les deux grands empires du 21e siècle : les USA et la Chine.
L'empire du pétrole fait face à celui du soleil dans une confrontation qui embarque le reste de l'humanité.

Putin routinely throws people who disagree with him out of windows or blows up the planes they are in. He has not just invaded Ukraine. He is killing anyone who disagrees with him.

In just a couple of months, America has gone from the guardian of global order to a predatory gangster state.
This will not end well for anyone, including the people who engineered that shift.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.
This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

I was just an Ed Department guy under Reagan and the most junior WH senior staffer under GHW Bush, so what do I know? But if I were an ex-president, and the current president were executing the most disastrous turn in American foreign policy in 80 years, I might say something?

All my life I have studied democratization and autocratization. My 1st field trip was to newly democratic Argentina. I then added autocracies to my portfolio: Cuba, Ven, etc. I think I can recognize the stages of transition to authoritarianism. Here are the boxes checked off.

I’m just going to ask this again because I didn’t get a definitive answer the first time…
WHY THE FUCK IS ELON MUSK DOING PRESS BRIEFINGS IN THE WHITE HOUSE FROM THE OVAL OFFICE?!?!

I may well have missed it, but I've yet to see DOGE offer a single example of actual fraud, as opposed to examples of the government funding programs people disagree with.

I drew this last November 26th knowing full well no self-respecting family newspaper in the country would be likely to print it. I was right. But given the events of this weekend, I’m gonna to let ‘er rip anyway.

Si vous vous interessez au lien qui peut exister entre la dégradation environnementale des USA et le vote conservateur/Trump, ce livre est pour vous.

I agree with this. Pretty much every half-brain I know is supporting Donald J. Trump.

Watch this space tomorrow.
We are going to start this national conversation about the mental state of the Republican Party’s presidential nominee.
It’s about time.
Indeed they did that years ago. The media ignored them. This has to stop. The double standard being applied for Trump’s benefit has to stop.
We talk incessantly about one guy being old and making verbal mistakes … while barely touching on the facts that the *other* guy is also old and making verbal mistakes (a hell of a lot more of them, frankly) *AND* is a psychiatric basket case to begin with???
It’s absolutely absurd. We must make this stop.
