No normal human being should ever have to read the Washington Post’s op-eds and unsigned editorials. But the Post’s words have a huge impact on the hive-mind of America’s foreign policy apparatus — and hence where we’re going to war next — so it’s important that someone normal pay attention and report back.So as a quasi-normal person, I recommend you pay close attention to this, from a by the Post’s deputy editorial page editor, Jackson Diehl, about North Korea:[North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un] has shown no interest in talks — he won’t even set foot in China, his biggest patron.

This past week the S&P 500 went up 301 points, or 12 percent, its best performance in 46 years. During the same week, the reported number of Americans killed by Covid-19 went up 11,499, or 161 percent, the coronavirus’s best performance ever. So this seems like a good time to reevaluate our treasured belief that a rising stock market reflects general human flourishing. Consider a few more events that happened this week around the same time as this excited tweet from Donald Trump, who somehow is the president of the United States: Hurrah! Meanwhile, the Covid-19 death toll that day...…This past week the S&P 500 went up 301 points, or 12 percent, its best performance in 46 years.

When the news that Brent Bozell faces three federal charges in connection with the January 6 assault on the Capitol, students of the U.S. right’s past might have wondered: Which one?It turns out that this particular Bozell was Brent Bozell IV, a Brent Bozell who previously had not made as much of an impact on politics as his father, grandfather, and great-grandfather — all also named L. Brent Bozell. But now Bozell IV — of obstructing an official proceeding, engaging in disorderly conduct at the Capitol, and entering a restricted government building — takes his place in the family...…When the news that Brent Bozell faces three federal charges in connection with the January 6 assault on the Capitol, students of the U.S. right’s past might have wondered: Which one?It turns out that this particular Bozell was Brent Bozell IV, a Brent Bozell who previously had not made as much of an impact on politics as his father, grandfather, and great-grandfather — all also named L.

President Donald Trump declared at the White House last night that “we did win this election” and that “we’ll be going to the U.S. Supreme Court.” He also claimed on Wednesday via Twitter that Democrats are “trying to STEAL the Election” and that votes that hadn’t been counted by the end of Election Day are somehow illegitimate.However, Trump’s ability to stick to this position and maintain support for it within the Republican Party — critical for any attempt by him to wage legal battles to exclude any votes — appeared fragile by Wednesday afternoon.
