Weekend Update #136: The War In A Nutshell
The Trump Administration Is More Terrified of Escalation Than Biden Ever Was; This Week In The Sanctions Pantomime

Happy weekend, friends

Well, fuck. Had I known ahead of time, I’d have flown to Hawaii for the long weekend.
#scomo #auspol https://aus.social/@maude…

Paul Krugman says nothing here the well-informed don’t already know, but I’m quoting here because he says it so crisply:
❝Until ICE moved in Los Angeles was, in fact, remarkably peaceful.…Los Angeles [minus ICE] is probably as safe as it has ever been.❞
❝The events unfolding in Los Angeles as you read this and, I fear, the events likely to unfold across much of America soon, quite possibly this weekend, suggest that the motivations of Trump and his cronies go deeper than mere (mere!) sadism. They want to use false claims of chaos to justify a power grab that, if successful, would mark the end of the American experiment.❞
