OPEN THREAD: Hump Day.
YOUR TERMS ARE ACCEPTABLE: Hamas to NYT: War of Annihilation Is Exactly What We Wanted.
WELL, THAT’S A RELIEF: ‘Rogue’ star won’t collide with our solar system in 29,000 years after all.
STEPHEN GREEN IS DRUNKBLOGGING THE REPUBLICAN DEBATE.
WELL, OKAY: Striking Actors and Hollywood Studios Agree to a Deal. “There is uncertainty over what a poststrike Hollywood will look like. But one thing is certain: There will be fewer jobs for actors and writers in the coming years, undercutting the wins that unions achieved at the bargaining table.”
THEY’RE ALWAYS IN THE LAST PLACE YOU LOOK: 115 Million Years Ago An Entire Continent Vanished. Now We’ve Found Where It’s Hiding.
PUSHBACK: US military strikes Iranian weapons facility in Syria following attacks against troops.
They must have read Austin Bay: Time To Strike Ayatollah Iran? “Despite waging proxy offensive wars throughout the Middle East — wars in Syria, Iraq, Yemen, in the Persian Gulf littoral, Lebanon, the West Bank, Gaza and Israel — Iran’s ayatollah regime has escaped deadly retribution.”
SHOCKER: The Real Drivers of Global Migration: A Twenty-Year Analysis Debunks Common Narrative. “A study has found that socioeconomic conditions, rather than climate factors, are the primary drivers of global migration.”
WELL, THIS IS THE 21ST CENTURY, YOU KNOW: Drones could deliver defibrillators to save patients in cardiac arrest.
THAT SEEMS WRONG: 2025 Ram 1500 Drops Hemi V-8s, Swaps In Hurricane Turbo Sixes.
BECAUSE BEEF IS DELICIOUS AND HEALTHY AND NO ONE WANTS TO EAT YOUR F***ING BUGS: Why cutting back on cow consumption is so hard. Eating less beef, cheese, and ice cream would slash emissions. If only it were that easy.
SOME OF THEM MAY EVEN RUN: Russia Still Has Three Years of Tanks in Storage Based on Satellite Imagery.
THE 21ST CENTURY ISN’T TURNING OUT HOW I’D HOPED: CDC sounds alarm on newborn syphilis ‘epidemic.’
WHY, INDEED? Why does the ‘party of abortion’ keep winning?
Pro-life Republicans will lick their wounds, blame each other, and point to uniquely unhelpful factors in each race. But the pattern is now so obvious as to be irrefutable. Since Dobbs, in elections where abortion is on the ballot, the party of abortion keeps winning.
The pro-abortion electoral tide could be stemmed in next year’s presidential elections, when turn-out will be much higher and the highly mobilized “reproductive choice” lobby will have less sway. But for the Democrats, who are losing on the economy, on immigration and so much else, the tactic is clear. We can expect the party of abortion to add ballot “reproductive rights” measures in every state in November next year to drive up their support. And Joe Biden, a practicing Catholic whose Church teaches that abortion is an excommunicable sin, will make it a major campaign issue — assuming his re-election campaign isn’t itself terminated in the coming months.
Donald Trump saw this coming.
WELL, SO HAS ACADEME: “Judges Have Long Deferred to Academe. That’s Changing.” “Activist politicization is not the entire problem. In other recent high-profile decisions, courts have demonstrated that they do not understand the purposes of academic freedom or the norms of academic governance. All these developments threaten the relative latitude courts have long granted colleges and universities to manage their own affairs.”
FUNNY THAT THIS IS NOW CONTROVERSIAL: Ben Shapiro praises Western values, denounces Hamas at UW-Madison.
WELL, IT WORKS IN BRITAIN: Campus Reform went to the DC pro-Palestine rally. Activists tried to get us arrested.
