    “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

    Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

      Crown — who is chairman and chief executive officer of his family’s investment business, Henry Crown & Company, and a director of General Dynamics and JPMorgan Chase & Co. — tipped his hat to Ken Griffin, the billionaire founder of the Citadel investment management company.

      In recent years, Griffin donated tens of millions of dollars to fund technology improvements for the Chicago Police Department and launch a training program at the University of Chicago for police leaders across the country. He moved his family and company from Chicago to Florida last year.

        I'm highly in favor of private efforts, since public ones have zero chance of making any improvements.

        Imagine thinking only 400 murders a year is progress.
