Midnight Meme Of The Day!

DownWithTyranny at DownWithTyranny! - 21 hours ago
*by Noah* It's not hard for a normal person to see Moscow Mitch in the way he appears in tonight's meme. He's a very warped man. This has nothing to do with standards of physical beauty although perhaps Mitch's obvious anger at the world and his desire to overexert power over it and punish it has something to do with his actions. What often happens is that very warped, cruel people start to physically manifest what they are inside. In the case of Mitch McConnell, he seems to be a reverse of the Dorian Gray story. Perhaps, there's a normal looking, untainted version of him closed... more »

Fact vs. Myth: Who Really Was Julius Caesar?

Warfare History Network at The National Interest - 21 hours ago
*Warfare History Network* *History, Europe* Facts can sometimes become clouded within the Roman leader's incredibly long legacy. *Key Point*: Caesar's genius likely tilted more toward administration than toward directing legions. Few men’s names resonate after two thousand years, for it is a very long stretch of time. And yet at the sound of the name “Caesar” everyone knows who he was and roughly what he did. Flawed, terrible, majestic; soldier, general, orator, administrator, author—he strode large in his time, so large that he still treads in ours. So who is Julius Caesar? Tw... more »

Are America's Military Generals Just Another Group Of Self-Interested Technocrats?

War News Updates Editor at War News Updates - 23 hours ago
*Ryan McMaken, Mises Institute:* *Military Generals Are Just Another Group Of Self-Interested Technocrats* The United States has always had a love affair with certain generals. George Washington, of course, was immensely popular, and thirteen US presidents were generals before they were president. But prior to the Second World War, generals as a group were not revered or treated with any particular veneration or respect. In fact, in the nineteenth century, full-time US military officers were often treated with suspicion and contempt. While state militia officers were regarded as i... more »

Just As The Clash Warned, The U.K. Is Headed Straight To Hell

DownWithTyranny at DownWithTyranny! - 1 day ago
Trump is still telling his simpleminded supporters that-- even as the U.S. hurtles towards a quarter million COVID-deaths-- there's really no problem at all. "It affects elderly people, elderly people with heart problems and other problems. That’s what it really affects," he said yesterday. And on Fox a day before, he said "We’ve done a phenomenal job, not just a good job, a phenomenal job" and said he deserves an A+ for his efforts. No doubt the New Axis is delighted-- plus Duterte and Bolsinaro-- but most of the world is astounded, if not horrified. Yesterday, Fiona Hill, Tr... more »
