Why Is Attempted Murder a Crime?

I mean, nobody died right? — Of course, that’s a stupid question. But considering how… relevant the question is this week, just indulge me. If a man gets some bad ideas in his head, say, he thinks he’s the first genius to think that if his wife died *and* had an insurance policy he would be…

A New Plan for Gun Control

Gun Control Advocates need to seize the name, spirit, and tactics of the Pro-Life movement Take the name. The “Pro-Life” movement in America is anything but. I’m only the millionth person to point this out, but banning sex education in schools, denying access to contraception, equal pay, maternity leave, and childcare result in more abortions rather than fewer. And when you walk hand in hand with people who…

Inflation and CRT vs Forced Pregnancy and White Supremacy

The midterm battle lines are drawn — It took a while to get here. The parties know that repetition and discipline are even more important than the message in national campaigns. Because of this, they like to adopt something as early as possible and harp on it for years. If they get lucky, whatever made-up bullshit they…

Russia vs Everybody

100 Years Ago, it was the same story — The years between 1904 and 1922 were almost unbelievably violent for the Russian people. During that period, the Russian government fought large-scale military conflicts with Japan, Germany, Austria, Poland, Ukraine, the Ottoman empire, and during their civil war: the White Russians, the Czechoslovak legion, Georgia, Armenia, Belarus, the Cossacks, the…

Ukraine in Transition

A snapshot in 2017 — First off, apologies dear readers for going dark the past few weeks. I lost communication with a contact within Ukraine and feared the worst. Also, the U.S. domestic political scene got to be more than I could bear as the Republican party simultaneously ▻acted as an outlet for Russian propaganda…

Winning Battles and Losing Wars

Sometimes a meat grinder is the most humane way to end things — Writing is tricky work, especially when one is trying to disseminate specialized information to a general audience. Go too basic and people yawn because you aren’t telling them anything new; lean heavily into jargon, data, and industry specifics, and you may look knowledgeable but you may also wind up incomprehensible. …

Ukraine Part III

The ground war — The full-scale, conventional invasion of Ukraine by Russian ground forces began last week along lines widely predicted. Before we address the international response and the long-term fallout, we will examine the conflict phase in greater detail. Military conflict on this level has not been seen, in some ways, since the…

Ukraine Part II

Consequences — Last week we examined the current state of the Russian armed forces currently pre-positioned around Ukraine, what their capabilities are, and what a conventional invasion of Ukraine would look like if it were to be launched in the near future. In short, a broad pincer movement from Belarus and Russia…

Modern War: Ukraine Part I

The Order of Battle — Like my earlier analysis of the Slow Moving Coup, this piece on the looming potential conflict between Russia and Ukraine will be a factual summary and history in the first part followed by a course of action analysis in the second. I rely heavily on open-source data, Ukrainian media sources…

Grandpa Joe vs the Press Corps

Like watching pigeons fight over old French fries — President Biden held his big press conference yesterday and it sure was a thing to behold. I watched the bulk of it with closed captioning on at the gym which made for a nice change from Judge Judy and endless commercials for personal injury lawyers. I’m not sure when the…
