A Twitter trial would expose Elon Musk to scrutiny. Buying Twitter might help him avoid it.
[image: Elon Musk onstage wearing a cowboy hat and dark glasses and speaking into a microphone.] Elon Musk at Tesla’s Gigafactory in Texas, April 2022. | Suzanne Cordeiro/AFP via Getty Images The billionaire might buy Twitter after all — and for once not get his way. Elon Musk wanted to buy Twitter. Then he didn’t. Now, according to a letter he sent to Twitter earlier this week, he does. Yes, again. The news in this months-long saga came the very week he’s expected to be deposed in a lawsuit Twitter filed against Musk for breach of contract. The exact reasons for his 180 are unkn... read more
Liz Truss's Tin Eared Conference Speech
By any measure, it's been a terrible conference for the Conservatives. Liz Truss kicked it off with her Laura Kuenssberg interview, in which she said there would be no about-turn on abolishing the 45p tax rate. Conference attendees woke up the following morning to find that it had been scrapped. And with the new PM visibly weakened, cabinet collective responsibility broke down. Suella Braverman took time out from her BNP-sourced rants about *Benefits Street* and dreams of deportation flights to Rwanda to attack Tory MPs who "staged a coup" against the Prime Minister. Meanwhile, amid... read more

The Republican Party's Splendiferously Shameless Belly Flop Into the Moral Mudpit of the Inhuman Psyche

That source, one of Walker's countless girlfriends, literally brought the receipts. Among them were the invoice for the $575 procedure from the abortion clinic, a cancelled check signed of course by Walker for $700 plus a Get Well card.

Politics By Other Means
With the sole possible exception of the great Sun Tzu and his “Art of War”, no military theorist has had such an enduring philosophical impact as the Prussian General Carl Philipp Gottfried von Clausewitz. A participant in the Napoleonic Wars, Clausewitz in his later years dedicated himself to the work that would become his iconic achievement - a dense tome titled simply “Vom Kriege” - On War. The book is a meditation on both military strategy and the socio-political phenomenon of war, which is heavily laced with philosophical rumination.

Fortunately, God came into my life and rescued me, and now I'm a good man." I've been assuming that if he said that, Christian conservatives would swoon, and he'd actually go up in the polls.
