Pakistan orders army to fire on US troops if they invade Pakistan again. Something about that is a little troubling to me. Can’t quite put my finger on it.
One thing I don’t understand: if the US cannot be allowed to go into Pakistan, how are they going to capture Bin Ladin the week before the election? Don’t the Pakistanis know how important this mission is to John McCain the free world?
“White voters remain broadly behind Walker.”
Once again, white voters leave it to everyone else to save democracy.

I have been saying for years now that one of the biggest shortcomings of the community researching "extremism" has been and is its reluctance to name misogyny as an incredible central value of US fascists.

I don’t think a man’s continuous public harassment of his ex/mother of his children is any less serious than his racist rantings, actually. These are connected violences
Today I was with @johnbiggs at his house in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, talking about moving from Mailchimp to Substack as part of overhauling my famous author platform. "You're doing it now," he said, & proceeded to set up my substack account & move my mailchimp subscribers over. 1/2
I love a person who knows their priorities.
So good at quotes lol ☠️

Special master: gone. All restrictions on DOJ use of recovered Mar-a-Lago documents: gone.
Massive DOJ win. Great day for democracy and the rule of law.
The War on Terrorism is a Lie
The war on terrorism is a lie because terrorism is not an enemy, it is a strategy.
Terrorism is a strategy employed by weaker states and non-state actors when fighting an asymmetric war against a more powerful opponent.
No state or non-state actor enters a conventional war against an enemy it has no chance of defeating conventionally.
Since the U.S. has declared that it will maintain military superiority without challenge, it has done everything in its power to do just that. The US defense budget for 2008 is some $700 billion. There is no single state or non-state actor on this planet that can defeat the United States in a conventional war.
Therefore, any single state or non-state actor that finds itself at war with the United States will be forced to fight an asymmetric war. That is, they will be forced to employ terrorism.
Therefore the war on terrorism is a war against anyone at war with the United States. Therefore the war on terrorism is a lie. It is not a war on terrorism at all, but a war to promote and defend US imperialism.
