https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/duterte-arrest-icc-1.7480155 Philippine officials say arrested former Philippine president Rodrigo Duterte has left Manila on a plane and he will be turned over to the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague. A plane carrying Duterte left Manila late Tuesday. Duterte was arrested after arriving with his family from Hong Kong at the Manila international airport Tuesday morning on a warrant from the ICC. The ICC has said it would pursue an investigation of suspected crimes against humanity related to Duterte's role in overseeing a bloody "war on drugs" that killed thousands of Filipinos.

Pfftt. I abandoned it during the first Reagan administration.

We also have reading groups for modern fiction, historical fiction and non-fiction and maybe other things too. It introduces me to books I normally would not think of reading for myself. Following the dialogue in this book is more difficult than reading Chaucer.

I am not without appreciation where it is warranted. I did send Trump and Elon both an E-card of thanks for the fork they offered me. It had puppies and flowers in it.

Everyone is vulnerable to an overdose of fentanyl.

There's a channel on YouTube, Wings of Pegasus, where a guy uses computer software to look for post-production correction. It's become so industry standard, even people who have great voices get tweaked (Kelley Clarkson for example). Regardless... The Ringo special was filmed over a couple of nights in January and was done (on his part) to promote his new album. I do get a bit tickled when watching Ringo sing on stage. He's so used to keeping time behind a drumkit, he's bouncing in rhythm as he sings.

Let's go in with an open mind on this one.

To answer your question, the "files" weren't released yet, per se. The EO was signed to declassify the JFK and MLK files. That being said, almost all JFK files have already been released and are publicly available online, some in the 90s and the rest in 2017 and 2018 (per the 1992 order). Further, the files are 50 years old now which is a default declassification date for most classified documents. I guess the EO is focused on any remaining redacted sections that have been "in review" since 2017 or so by Agencies. Again, the files have been available for many years. I doubt any remaining redacted stuff will be game changing, but I guess we'll see. There are still folks who think JFK Jr is returning and that we never landed on the moon so my confidence that we can handle information intelligently is low.

I thought nothing was off the table to appease negotiate with Putin?

No projection, please.

Crenshaw in particular is an absolute poser. Seal or not, that guy is a poser.

Maybe he assumed they were too incompetent to ever figure it out no matter how obvious it was.

Muto held separate talks with U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick in Washington, two days before Trump's 25 percent tariffs on all steel and aluminum imports are due to take effect.
