The Justice Department shared those findings, detailed in a January 2023 briefing document written by then-special counsel Jack Smith’s team,
with lawmakers as they conduct a …

Trump showed classified map to passengers on his plane in 2022, memo says
The document offers a snapshot of an early moment in special counsel Jack Smith’s investigation and adds new shading to the public understanding of Smith’s probes.

Iraqi ambush of Americans made a mockery of 'Mission Accomplished'
A year after President George W. Bush launched the 2003 U.S.-led invasion of Iraq, four U.S. civilian security contractors in SUVs took an ill-fated turn into the Iraqi city of Falluja.

Towards Fearless Macros
Macros are tricky beasts. Most languages—if they have macros at all—usually include a huge “here there be dragons” warning to warn curious would-be macro programmers of the dangers that lurk ahead.

Moreover, making macros easy to use safely is an open area of research—most languages that have macros don…

Unfortunately I don't expect much. Some calls for restraint. Maybe some polite condemnation. The more likely the further west but nothing with teeth.

We are not getting independent (of the US) foreign policies until we have taken charge of our security and of critical financial and technology infrastructure.

Yes, they are even bragging about it.

But - besides the environmental insanity and the theft - it's doubtful it will even work out economically. I doubt they can get a return on what they'd need to invest any more. They'll need to plunder more than oil.

Point taken. I was thinking of processes that started already in 2020 and are still ongoing, making a different point.
