Bombshell Report from no less than the Wall Street Journal: wsj.com/world/russia/m… Since Russia is engaged in cyberwar against the U.S., Musk may be guilty of treason--a capital offense. After this election, we will need to talk about what should be done to Putin, and Musk.

A year ago, Vox asked five scholars if they considered Israel to be committing genocide in Gaza. One said yes, the others said no. Returning to the same scholars a year later, Vox found that three of those who said no have subsequently changed their mind. vox.com/politics/37891…

The Western response to North Korea becoming a belligerent in Ukraine so far has been wholly inadequate. The introduction of a new country to the war is a very big deal and a major escalation. It really should prompt a fundamental reevaluation of Western policy.
