amorphous conflict.
Haven't heard the term for a while since going through the old articles about the end of apartheid in South Africa, since "hybrid warfare" became the cool term.

Politburo of JPMorgan believes Trump can, in fact win.
https://www.bloombergquint.com/business/elon-musk-is-now-richer-than-mark-zuckerberg-on-tesla-surge
Musk beats Zuckerberg as the third richest person in the world.

Other news:
*France sent the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle against the Turkish invasion of Greek territorial waters. US aircraft carrier Eisenhower was previously sent against Turkey with the old Byzantine Flag, but eventually Trump forced the Pentagon to partially cooperate with Erdoğan.
*Tikhanovskaya, the Belarusian opposition leader, is going to address UN Security Council on the invitation of Estonia.
*Montenegrin opposition, primarily composed of pro-Russian Serbian minority parties, might have the majority to form a government against the 30-year rule of Democratic Party of Socialists of Montenegro, which is known for its illegal tobacco smuggling. DPS preserved its rule in the small country by siding with the US and EU during the post-Yugoslav period.

Trump and right wing media are defending Rittenhouse, emboldening right wing militias and setting the stage for amorphous conflict.
Thanks. Yea that's not good.

Eh, ragazzo!
The Rittenhouse fiasco is really starting to upset me (to say the least).

People made a fuss about peaceful protestors who have been violently repelled who are asking for racially equal treatment under the law, but you have one person who took two lives that are never coming back, and he is declared the hero? What positive change is coming from him taking lives? That isn't his job, nor is it really anyone else's job. I'm getting sick of how oblivious people are about the inequalities of justice.

It's meat for Trump's base. To stir them up, incite them.

(Dang it phone... it keeps on changing words)

Trump stupidly encouraged his supporters in NC to vote twice.

Voting twice is a felony and enough to throw you in prison for 10 years.

Oh, and William Barr totally didn't know that part, and he's the attorney general.

Mr. Rogers was a Republican, but I strongly doubt he would have ever supported a man like Trump.

I don't think Mr. Rogers was one of those people that had a bad bone in his body despite what political faction he may have aligned with.

I give Mr. Rogers bonus points for getting Fox News to say that he ruined the younger generation for saying they were special.

Trump wishes to exclude wounded veterans from military parades, because, in his words, "nobody wants to see amputees."

This also comes from prior evidence when he called veterans who died in the war "suckers and losers" when asked to visit a cemetery honoring them.

hard to glorify war when you show off how it hurts the people who are involved while the assorted fatcats and colonizers who order it escape unharmed
