Trump's announcement on Tuesday that the US would cease bombing the Houthis, not even two months after he foolishly escalated the cynical sea-and-air assault he inherited from the Biden administration, came as a surprise, particularly while Sanaa International Airport lay smoking on Monday from Israeli warplanes.

The Ben Gurion airport attack underlines the great difficulty the U.S. has had in confronting the Houthis, who began a military intervention after October 7 in solidarity with the besieged population of the Gaza Strip. In addition to the airport attack, Ansar Allah has attacked a number of naval vessels in the Red Sea, including aircraft carriers, while causing the losses of numerous U.S. fighter planes and surveillance drones. This week, the U.S. government announced that it had reached an agreement with the Houthis that they would stop targeting U.S. ships in exchange for an end to the U.S.-led aerial campaign against Yemen.
There exists a peculiar phenomenon in the intellectual landscape of our time — a man who hides behind the armor of credentials while spouting nonsense with the conviction of Moses descending from the mountain.

The US Treasury ramped up its estimate for federal borrowing for the current quarter to account for a much smaller starting stockpile of cash than it had projected — a consequence of Congress having failed as yet to raise the federal debt limit.
A further aspect of post-truth is that participants often willingly participate in their own deception because ignoring the truth makes them feel good.

The Biden administration allowed Israel unprecedented leeway to carry out its military offensive, despite the enormous death and devastation it inflicted on Gaza. Former Israeli ambassador, Michael Herzog, made a startling admission about Biden’s support:

Sass is a popular open-source CSS framework for building websites. It is commonly used in some of the most popular open source projects, like Next.js. It is one of the few open source projects that when developers navigate their website for docs or whatever, they see a banner at the top of the page that says "Free Palestine." It is a shame that more software projects are too scared to show their support for Palestine, or that are actually opposed to Palestine's existence.

Bluma Altmed, a Polish Jew disguised as a Gentile outside the ghetto, recalled a conversation with a Catholic woman who was upset with Jewish resistance fighters for disturbing her sleep: “I have a constant headache because I can’t sleep in such conditions. All night long, I hear machine guns. . . . The explosions and shootings never end. What are those Yids thinking, anyway? They have to die, one way or the other. The least they could do is to give up.”
One of the thorniest issues that has arisen in the wake of the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs—which, in overturning Roe v.
