This week on MT @aaronfrancis.com's got a new theory he's trying out on @ianlandsman.com: In the AI era, languages don't matter as much - but frameworks & ecosystems, especially batteries-included frameworks like @laravel.com, increasingly do 🔥

They don’t know how war works and they don’t know how negotiations work—but they do know how grift works. Our oligarchs will make money, Putin will make money, and that’s the only "victory" they care about. As a war this is obviously a defeat for the US—had the US won it would be dictating terms.
JD Vance: "The bad news is that we have not reached an agreement. And I think that's bad news for Iran much more than it's bad news for the US. So, we go back to the US having not come to an agreement ... they have chosen not to accept our terms"

Can guarantee you that President Harris wouldn't get away with starting a war of aggression and then posting "open the fucking strait" on easter without being impeached on Monday
There is no excuse for downplaying or eliding the insanity of Trump’s morning post. It is the most unhinged public comment by a president in US history and should be reported and remarked upon as such.

Constitutional lawyer here. I don't think it would violate the Constitution for the VP/Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment, but the intended constitutional remedy for this behavior is impeachment & removal. The fact that that remedy is politically impossible is a scandal and a crisis.
If I were in Trump's Cabinet, I would spend Easter calling constitutional lawyers about the 25th Amendment. This is completely, utterly unhinged. He's already killed thousands. He's going to kill thousands more.
