This one should be unbelievable.
It is absolutely unforgivable.

Stephen M. Walt (professor of international relations at Harvard University) argues at Foreign Policy that a one-size-fits-all world system is bound to fail. Walt cites three objections to the “hyperglobalization” currently favored by global elitists:
This is the great battle playing out around the world. The U.S.A. foreign policy elites and their allies are trying desperately to maintain the post World War II liberal order in a world that no longer wants to be bound by the “Golden Straitjacket” of that world order.
“Looking ahead, greater respect for national sovereignty and fewer efforts to force the whole world into one way of living will help emerging rivalries stay within bounds and help countries with very different values cooperate on those critical issues where their interests overlap.”
Jeff Snider at Real Clear Markets makes the case for capitalism
Capitalism sure is messy, unpredictable, and, most of all, lumpy. It doesn’t go in a straight line, can cause tremendous stress and pain, and there are times when it gets caught up, for prolonged periods, in the bureaucratic messes of interfering morons. But once it is eventually set free, stable money, the world’s workers end up united if only in having no interest in the deplorable Marxist revolution – Trotsky, Lenin, or Mao – and its authoritarian Hotel California.
Now that is some 100-level gangster sh*t right there.
You might have thought a federal judge overseeing a case brought by the U.S. Department of Justice was untouchable.
But you would be wrong.
So did the bank have her son killed? Did Benjamin Netanyahu do it? Or was it Bill Clinton? Or Her Highness’s Royal Hit Squad?
Think the judge got the message?
Did you?
Update: okay, well, who knows? — “authorities” now say the murderer was a lawyer with a parochial grievance. Could be. He’s also dead, so there’s no asking him.
Will this most political general’s self-promotional PR tour ever end?
You are a guilty war criminal, Colin. It’s not just your obituary. Your gravestone will say so too. And for all of the rest of human history you will be known as the useful tool who knew he was lying but went ahead anyway, killed one million people, turned the entire Middle East upside down and got the entire-damn 21st Century off to a bad start. Forever. Always. Guilty.
So go ahead and shut the hell up right now and just be thankful that the “law” in this country doesn’t apply to you and you get to die near family in your giant mansion instead of in a Supermax cell where you belong.
Now, go back to ignoring all these veteran suicides you caused and pretending they are someone else’s fault too.
Well Steve, Taylor might have made a compelling witness if she’d lived (or That’s Why They Call It “Murder”).

Survey results show good news for police reform. 63% of Americans support ending qualified immunity for police. The problem is those in power don’t – a majority of Republicans, police (as represented by the unions) and the judicial system.
