Thread with excerpts from "Iran's Grand Strategy: A Political History" by Vali Nasr Image
Khamanei & the top leadership of Iran saw the widespread protests in September 2022 as evidence not of religious disillusionment or economic discontent, but as the products of USA plots aimed at destabilizing Iran at home to undermine Iranian successes abroad. Image

Thread with excerpts from "Government by Judiciary: The Transformation of the Fourteenth Amendment" by Raoul Berger Image
Description is not prescription, but in constitutional law it is close enough that this book damaged the reputation of the author. Arguments by author drove Justices Marshall & Brennan to assert that words & intentions of founders were less relevant than constitutional spirit. Image
Image
Image
Image
The Fourteenth Amendment was passed during the 39th Congress. The discussions surrounding it were fully stenographed, and leave no ambiguity as to the meaning of the amendment by its writers. Image

Greenland was not colonized by the Amerindians or their predecessors. It was only discovered in the mid-to-late 3rd millennium BC nemets.substack.com/p/greenlandImage
Image
The Belkachi people migrated across the Bering Strait in the early 3rd millennium BC. They expanded across Alaska and the American Arctic. Their descendants reached Greenland towards the end of the millennium, forming the Independence I and Saqqaq cultures. Image
Image
Image
The climate shift which led to the Bronze Age Collapse in Eurasia also afflicted the Arctic, reducing the Saqqaq to a refuge in southwestern Greenland by beginning of the first millennium BC. They were overrun by their Dorset relatives from continent in mid-1st millennium BC. Image

the kinds of women who joined the FBI in 2010, immediately before enactment of Obama's 2011-2 DEI policies: Coast Guardette, two financiers, Air Force lawyer, accountant, hotel directoress, two engineers. Two were single mothers. Image
Image
Image
Authoress claims a minority of FBI agents do most work, a phenomenon reinforced by lack of performance pay. 60 statistics were kept for agents, & their nature drove agents to focus on simple crimes & those which afflicted celebrities. Complex financial cases were neglected. Image

apparently it was more dangerous to be a polemicist in 1870s Kansas than in the South Image
persecution of innocent poasters by hack judges & sinister feds is sadly an old American tradition Image
