"The incentive structure is almost too corrupt to believe:"The Commerce Secretary imposes aggressive, potentially illegal tariffs that disrupt trade and damage American importers."The Secretary’s own firm buys the rights to eventual refunds from these same injured companies — at pennies on the dollar."When the courts strike down the tariffs — as the Secretary’s firm clearly anticipated — it collects the full refund value."#USPolitics #TrumpCrimeFamily https://thedemocracydefender.substack.com/p/iran-war-we-follow-the-money-to-mar

"This is not a war with some corruption around the edges. It is a financial architecture disguised as foreign policy. Every layer of the conflict — from the decision to strike, to the weapons used, to the sanctions imposed, to the energy markets disrupted, to the reconstruction that follows — has been engineered to produce returns for a specific, identifiable group of people: “The Mar-A-Lago Gang”##Corruption #TrumpCrimeFamily #Iran https://thedemocracydefender.substack.com/p/iran-war-we-follow-the-money-to-mar

"This is a world which better serves states such as Russia and Saudi Arabia, where the state and the oligarchy are already in alignment. It is not a world in which the United States has much of a place, or at least the United States considered as its people or its representative institutions. It is the world of Trump’s Board of Peace, in which peoples are understood as objects of deals, not as citizens of states."#Politics #Iran #TrumpCrimeFamily https://snyder.substack.com/p/the-oligarchical-corridor

@mikro2nd @JonathanMBR They are nasty little creatures. I went to secondary school in Ibadan, Nigeria, and for some reason there was a large cage with maybe six baboons in it at the school. They got loose a number of times and someone always got bitten.

@nova If she's not leaping onto your neck when you've turned your back, she's doing it wrong.

@The_Whore_of_Blahbylon I have to object. This rank bullshit ruined my life. It was very popular when I was a young child, and my father and uncle decided that these are the lessons I should be taught. "No future tripping," they'd say. "Empty your mind," they'd say. Except I was a fucking child. I was made to believe that there was no future and to think about it was bad, to want anything was bad, to make any kind of value judgment was bad.FUCK THAT NOISE WITH PREJUDICE.

@internetarchive You know what's going to really make major archives vanish? The loss of the electric grid. Not likely to happen any time soon but ...

@gutenberg_org The video not only doesn't deliver on the promise but it borders on horrific when the limbs of some of the women in some of the paintings are made to move. #BinIt
