Biden begins to sanction Russia for Ukraine invasionNational Review: President Biden announced several new economic sanctions against Russia on Tuesday, one day after the Kremlin moved to formally invade two separatist regions of Eastern Ukraine that have long been under the control of its proxies. “This is the beginning of a Russian invasion of Ukraine,” Biden said. “I’m going to begin to impose sanctions in response, far beyond the steps we and our allies and partners imposed in 2014. If Russia goes further with this invasion we stand prepared to go further.” In what he referred to as the “first tranche” of expected sanctions, ... read more

The administration was planning on using the entirely fictional number of $51 per ton of carbon dioxide emissions to calculate taxes, fees, and the cost of infrastructure spending.

Nicaragua: Augusto Cesar Sandino’s Rebellion Against The USWhile Sandino is not a household name in much of the world, as these others are, he was one of the most important and successful guerilla fighters of the 20th century, successfully driving the US Marines out of Nicaragua against nearly impossible odds. His image, with his iconic Tom Mix cowboy hat tilted to one side, continues to be the most ubiquitous symbol in Nicaragua – a country led by the Sandinista Front, named in his honor. Unlike the aforementioned revolutionaries, Sandino was not an intellectual and he was not a Marxist. Rather, he was a mechanic from a small town outsid... read more

Activists Are Occupying The Woods To Block A New Police FacilityInside Atlanta’s sprawling South River Forest, city officials are moving forward with plans to raze dozens of acres of woodlands to build a $90 million police training facility that locals are calling “Cop City.” In response, Defend the Atlanta Forest activists who call themselves “forest defenders” have begun occupying the woods in an attempt to physically halt the facility’s construction—sabotaging construction vehicles and building barricades around a police-free autonomous zone that serves as both a living space and staging ground for the resistance effort. The forest defender... read more

How Courts Can Protect Democracy From Abuse of Emergency PowersInside the United States Supreme Court. (Phil Roeder, https://flic.kr/p/9sMTg8; CC BY 2.0, https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/) Elected leaders establishing autocracies often use emergencies, real or imagined, to justify measures that undermine democracy. Justice Robert Jackson’s opinion in the Youngstown case, after discussing the then-recent experience of Hitler using emergency powers to subjugate democracy in Nazi Germany, said that “emergency powers ... tend to kindle emergencies,” which provide “a ready pretext for usurpation.” The Supreme Court has not taken concer... read more

When Newton Minow gave a speech...*TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 2022* *...Gilligan's Island responded:* Long ago and far away, Newton Minow gave a famous speech. He spoke on May 9, 1961. He was delivering his first major address since the newly elected President Kennedy made him head of the FCC. At that time, a basic view was widely held, at least within certain cultural groups. We refer to the widespread belief that American popular culture tended to possibly be a bit dumb. Needless to say, the question of whether something is dumb always involves matters of judgment. Also, issues of courtesy may arise when popular en... read more

* I thought my silence was caused by having nothing to say.* I was wrong. It was more about having *too much* to say. My apologies to all my faithful readers for the long silence. And to all those who have emailed me without a response, I will correct that over the next few days. For many years, I had certain expectations of the manner in which civilized people ought to act. It was something I believed. Of course, that would mean realizing the veneer of being civilized was very thin on many people. I didn't. I also believed there were bad people, aka as evil people, in the wor... read more

Should Iran Bet Its Future on Russia?*Mohammad Javad Mousavizadeh* *Iran Russia, Middle East* Officials believe that Russia is a reliable friend of Iran, but public opinion remains divided. After the Soviet Union fell in 1991, Iran and Russia’s relationship has had its ups and downs. During the Iran-Iraq war, for example, Russia armed the Iraqis against Iran, but, over time, their relations improved, and, today, the two are strategically aligned in opposition to the United States. Presently, most Iranian officials think that the West block is diminishing in power, and that the East is rising in influence. Thus, desp... read more

Time to Turn the Tables on Vladimir Putin*Dov S. Zakheim* *Ukraine Crisis, Europe* Washington fears that too deep involvement on the ground could bring on a war with Russia. Why should Putin not have the same fear? For years, Vladimir Putin’s detractors have been calling him a mere tactician, rather than the strategist that he is. How wrong they have been. He has positioned Russia in the eastern Mediterranean to an unprecedented degree. Russia now has a long-term lease on a Syrian airbase, Khmeimim, in addition to a new lease on the Tartus naval base, from which the Soviet Navy operated during the Cold War. He has maint... read more

Mali's Parliament Approves Five-Year Plan for Democratic Transition*Trevor Filseth* *Mali, Africa* The political and economic turmoil within Mali has strained the country’s relationship with France. The military-dominated parliament of Mali approved on Monday a timetable for a democratic transition, allowing the military government of Colonel Assimi Goita to continue ruling the country for up to five more years. The legislature also declared that the current president, who officially serves in an interim capacity, would not be allowed to stand for a democratic election at that time—in theory preventing Goita from running for office. However, so... read more
