BREAKING: The Trump administration has quietly added 37 troops to the Iran war casualty count this week without explanation, 29 Navy sailors and 8 Marines, bringing the total to 880 wounded or dead, per WaPo. More than half the casualties are now logged under "Overseas Operations" rather than Operation Epic Fury, a reclassification the administration made after the July ceasefire collapsed, with Trump and senior officials claiming since then that the conflict is not a war and Vance saying on September 3 that "right now, there is no active shooting." It comes a week after as many as five US military deaths are still missing from the same database, a discrepancy that remains unresolved.

No, he's saying inter alia if you were once maga-curious and now think trump is a disaster you need to take a decade to work out why your predictive faculty was so flawed in the face of overwhelming evidence before you re-engage in political activity.

The deepest, most serious mistake of the IR field is the concept of « Russia’s legitimate security concerns ». They don’t exist. Never have. Russia has not been threatened even vaguely in its entire post-1991 existence.

Killing every last dodo wasn't that hard. We weren't even trying. All it took was a bunch of superintelligent primates (humans with technology) pursuing their own inscrutable goals that didn't prioritize dodo welfare.

for those monitoring the situation this seems to be the official US department of education account doing a dogwhistle about getting rid of some Indian kids attending a UT football game

"Kremlev, 43, is also involved in an org called Healthy Fatherland, run by his 23-year-old wife’s twin sister. The group — which promotes healthy eating & youth sports — is under Ukrainian sanctions for its alleged role in a program of abducting Ukrainian children and relocating them under the guise of “rehabilitation"

HOLY SHIT -- Tapper plays Mike Johnson footage of Republican candidate Brandon Herrera describing moms as "cum trophies," mentions he called Nazi machine guns "the original ghetto blasters," and asks Johnson how he can support him. Johnson says "Herrera has run a very effective campaign ... that was his persona online."

Holy shit! Mike Rogers voted NINE TIMES to deny 9/11 first responders life saving healthcare. Beyond cruelty, this is nothing short of PURE EVIL — and about as anti-American as it gets.
