The US is (again!) bankrolling two wars with no clear endpoint that don’t advance the interests of the American people. I would at least tentatively support any movement or formation that might effect a radical shift in our foreign policy. I don’t see that happening at all./1
Christopher Rufo describes the Gaza War as a faraway "foreign conflict" that most Americans do not understand their Government's direct and decisive role in -- and he'd like to keep it that way, purely for the purpose of advancing Republican electoral interests. He also wishes to…

Greg Abbott, Tom Cotton et al are proving themselves to be dangerous authoritarians—just as many of their Democratic counterparts have. Such leaders are the reason we need the Bill of Rights. Unfortunately I fear not many will agree with me on this very basic point.
None. Not one. America has not waged a legitimate war since 1941 and even then, that war and every one since has done nothing but deform and distort the American political project away from its original goals.

@compactmag_ I review Ecuador’s recent referendum as well as the state kidnapping of Jorge Glas. Thus far, it doesn't seem likely that Noboa will have the same success as ES' Nayib Bukele in his respective war against gangs compactmag.com/article/ecuado…
Practically the whole right-populist flank of the GOP from Trump down committed to funding the foreign policy blob's forever wars this week, so not surprising they want us to be focused on some campus stuff that will be over in a few weeks when the semester ends.
Businesses are upset about the FTC's ban on noncompete clauses not because they will lose trade secrets or valuable employees, @BetseyStevenson says, but because they just lost bargaining power to workers trib.al/vtnnMDi via @opinion
I’m always happy when a friend supports the gradual rehabilitation of Richard Nixon. In all seriousness, nuclear energy is clean and can be affordable with proper regulation and incentives. If you want a green future, go nuclear. #NucleaEnergy

The latest in @compactmag_’s expanding global coverage:
-Mozambican sociologist Pedrito Cambrão on the 50th anniversary of the end of colonialism in Africa
-@rojasrjuand on the mixed results of Ecuador’s effort at a Bukele-style crackdown on gangs

@The_Nietzschean@rojasrjuand Here's a paragraph I wrote after Bukele's reelection. How you could extract that conclusion from it or the larger article, I have no idea (other than maybe you're illiterate?). compactmag.com/article/bukele…
Can the anti-crime model pioneered by El Salvador's Nayib Bukele be exported to other countries?
Gang-ridden Ecuador has become a test case for that question, and as @rojasrjuand explains, the results so far aren't promising: compactmag.com/article/ecuado…
Remember when it used to be at least mildly controversial in Progressive™ circles for the President to take "secret" unilateral military action? You know, by concealing it from the American public? Who are ultimately the ones paying for it?
For all the talk about a global rebound, this really isn't in the data. US activity is slowing and a key indicator of stronger global demand - the manufacturing PMI (blue) - looks weak in the US (lhs) and the Euro zone (rhs). Rate cuts are coming. Market pricing is too hawkish...
