I think Hegseth is fundamentally a broken human being.
US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth vowed in an interview that the execution of the man who killed 13 people in a mass shooting at Fort Hood in 2009 would be "public." cnn.it/3VzJ0X2

“After everything I’ve seen throughout my career, I can confidently say this: scaling too fast can be just as dangerous as not scaling at all. It's important to grow smart and strategically.”

Here is a joke from a Russian Jew, who told it to me in Germany.
Everyone is standing in line at the butcher shop, because there is a rumor of meat. After waiting in line for about an hour, an official comes out and shouts, "There is not enough meat for everyone. All the Jews must go home." So, moaning and groaning, all the Jews head home.
After another hour of standing around, the official comes out again and shouts, "There is STILL not enough meat. Everyone who is not a Party member must go home." All the non-Party members go home, cursing their luck.
After yet a third hour of waiting, the official comes out one last time and shouts, "Well, there isn't any meat at all really. Everyone go home."
So Ivan turns to Yuri and says, "See? This is how it always is. The Jews get all the breaks."

They should call it the “Anti-Kulak Bodega Act” of 2026.
Mamdani: Today, I am proud to announce a collection of essential staples that will be predictably 30% cheaper at all five of our city-run grocery stores. This core set of goods will include all fresh produce, meat, and seafood, along with 20 other essential items like cheese, milk, and bread.
Here's how it will work. Once a month, our five city-run grocery stores will set prices for this core set of goods at 30% below typical retail prices. No exceptions, no gimmicks. The savings will last for the entire month. That means no weekly fluctuations or sticker shock at the checkout line—not for our seniors living on fixed incomes, nor for the parents who rely on a regular supply of apple slices to keep toddler tantrums at bay.

This is unsustainable and bad, and has created a massive culture of functional benefits fraud that every active-duty service member and every veteran knows about. Like similar feel-good cases of spending, it's political suicide to touch, so I guess we'll see how high it can go.

Hot take: the fact that the Founders were big natural law guys and designed a really successful country should make us more prone to believing in natural law

Historian Stephen Kotkin returns to @UncKnowledge with @P_M_Robinson for another round of five questions, this time on Iran, China, Ukraine, and the future of the American republic.
Kotkin argues that America still possesses unmatched strengths—economic, technological, military, and cultural—but warns that self-inflicted political dysfunction could squander them. He dissects Trump's Iran strategy, explains why China wants Taiwan "for free," argues that Ukraine has already won the sovereignty war against Russia, and delivers a powerful defense of America's founding ideals at a moment when both authoritarian regimes abroad and political extremism at home are testing them.
Sharp, provocative, and deeply informed, this is classic Kotkin: history as a guide to the geopolitical storms of the present. Watch the full conversation here:

.@carsonjbecker: Do you still own the cattle ranch in Bolivia?
@ELuttwak: I sold it last year because neither my son nor my daughter wanted to take it on. And there has to be an owner. In Bolivia, the ownership is the owner, not a piece of paper. You don’t go to court in the Amazon. But I love doing it. I love cows. I now understand Hinduism; sitting there in the evening, slowly the light is fading, and suddenly — hundreds and hundreds of cows walking, following a leader, who is another cow, down to the lake to drink water. Complete silence, hundreds of cows moving. You don’t hear anything, because of the grass…
"Victory is a dirty word." In the latest Principals, @ELuttwak — strategist, combatant, rancher — talks to @carsonjbecker about post-heroic warfare, broken procurement, and why Caesar can't arrive in an era that won't fight. Read it at @arenamag

New York City spends more money per pupil than many public-school districts—and yet its educational outcomes “are average at best,” @MarcNovicoff argues. He examines how the city’s education budget became untouchable, and what that means for students: theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0…

Grocery stores have been ‘solved.’ They’ve been solved. Anything with a 2% profit margin is solved. Maybe you could wring some more efficiency on an industry level with improved logistics but that’s going to an incredibly complex technical endeavor above the pay grade of municipal government.
That’s why the ‘public grocery stores’ are such a good example of Dem Soc silliness. They’re a political set piece with ~0% chance of any net public benefit and an extremely high likelihood of wasted resources and opportunity costs.
