MY LATEST SUBSTACK ESSAY: Scott Pelley Is Out. So What? The demise of the news anchor as someone who matters.

THE ESTABLISHMENT PRETENDS TO DECENCY, BUT IS ACTUALLY ALL ABOUT PROTECTING THE ESTABLISHMENT AND ITS POWER:
It is rather obvious that NYT story was more of a cover up for Platner than an attempt to reveal the truth.
They essentially made the women in the story targets by intentionally withholding so much. I hope other women seriously take note to never trust the reporters or editors… https://t.co/Xxc9uiNqFY

I'm teaching my daughters that feminists and liberal women will NOT support them if they are abused by a left-wing man with any power
They will run the old familiar "you can't believe that bitch" playbook b/c, ultimately, they are religious zealots and their religion is politics https://t.co/WIBvCoQvdm

NOBODY I KNOW WOULD FAIL THIS TEST:
Here are things that might come out:
1. "I thought we were serious and he clearly wasn't."
2. "I introduced him to my family and we still broke up."
3. "He was an ass."
Things that won't:
"He locked me in a room for any length of time."
"He manhandled me."
"He scared me." https://t.co/GoZpRlfSKm— (((Not That Crown, Maybe))) (@CrownMaybe) June 5, 2026
The left moved almost immediately to the “Everybody Does It” phase of excusemongering for the Nazi who at the very least emotionally abused his girlfriends.
CHARMING FELLOW: Woman-hating Graham Platner made twisted rape comments and lied about Nazi tattoo, ex-girlfriends reveal.
Maine Senate hopeful Graham Platner is a woman-hater who once twisted an ex-girlfriend’s arm — and fantasized about killing people and raping intruders, according to a slew of women who’ve come forward to out his disturbing behavior.
The Democrat candidate also boasted about having a Nazi tattoo, calling it “my Totenkopf,” one ex recalled — contradicting his October claim that he thought it was merely a “terrifying skull and crossbones.”
Three of Platner’s ex-girlfriends recounted their troubling time dating the Marine veteran to the New York Times, with the women describing him as someone who “hated women,” referring to them as “hatchet wounds” in the latest scandal to dog his campaign.

If that wasn’t the Cat5 news drop, I can’t imagine what else we might learn.
Or at least I’d rather not.
UPDATE (FROM GLENN):
I would like to remind everyone that there is, to this day, no piece of evidence or testimony corroborating whether Bret Kavanaugh and Christine Blasey Ford WERE EVER IN THE SAME ROOM.
That was the number one story in America for months. The Platner story is much more robust. https://t.co/P5fwm5qQzr

TWANLOC:
The reigning ideology that controls all institutions in my country tells me that I’m supposed to believe we’re all just Americans who want the same thing.
But that is so obviously a lie that it doesn’t even merit refutation any longer. Reality itself refutes it.
There is no… https://t.co/o8PgVVavJe

“This man is not ‘my fellow American’ and we do not have any shared interests whatsoever. We occupy the same landmass. That’s it. And geography alone does not hold a nation together for long.”
Update: There’s more because of course there’s more.
One of the most shocking things I witnessed today was this woman in pink screaming “you gon end up like Metcalf, you gone be pushing up daisies”.

CHANGE: The Hormuz Squeeze Is Redrawing the Oil Map for Good.
Across the Gulf, governments are pouring billions into new oil pipelines, rail corridors and energy storage hubs to bypass the waterway in what is set to become one of the most durable outcomes of the conflict. The new energy links are part of a broader redrawing of the region’s logistics map, shifting trade toward trucking, rail and new ports.
“The legacy of the crisis will result in the construction of infrastructure to bypass the Strait of Hormuz,” said Hamad Hussain, commodities economist at London-based research firm Capital Economics. “The genie is out of the bottle given that the longstanding threat of Iran effectively closing the strait has now materialized.”
Even if Washington and Tehran reach a deal to reopen the strait and maritime exports resume, the shift toward an export network with multiple exits will endure because the conflict has proved that robust contingency plans are essential, officials and analysts say. Saudi Arabia’s ability to export oil via a previously underused fallback pipeline demonstrated the strategic value of a backup, while in recent weeks the United Arab Emirates and Iraq have launched plans to expand pipelines of their own.
The stakes extend far beyond the Gulf. Bypassing a waterway that once moved a fifth of the world’s oil will reshape how securely energy reaches all corners of the globe.
If we can’t get a Free Iran, this is the next best thing.
THEY WANT YOU TO FEAR THAT IT IS, THOUGH: It’s Not Racist to Notice Reality. “It is an especially galling dodge to hear that from the same people who will look you in the eye and talk about how whites are inherently racist. They have no problem making sweeping generalizations about white people; they are, as you saw with Senator Antonio, speaking over the question by calling it racist.”

UPDATE:
If you think it’s a “blow” to a jury trial that the jury doesn’t have a specific racial composition, then you don’t *really* believe in multiculturalism https://t.co/v2FG1gBrJ1

Nobody really believes in multiculturalism.
THAT COULD BE A PROBLEM:
Now you can buy an anti-aircraft weapon on eBay for $7,000 — and because this Chinese kinetic interceptor drone does not use rocket propellant or explosive, you don't even need a gun licence. A potential terror threat emerges — Story below. pic.twitter.com/g5ZcJhp9Ep

Reflections on the many and far-flung fields that writing can touch upon, from original inspiration to the final work.
Wizards. Metaphysics. Good, evil, virtues, and morality meters. Fairy tales in all their varied glory. Desert, forest, and other settings. Dragons and industry. Guilds of magic, quacks, and superstitions. Love and courtship. Portals. And more.
DISPATCHES FROM THE BLUE ZONES: ‘Jews Eat Children’: Deranged Outburst or Growing Threat? “The latest example of accusations against Jews becoming even more unhinged than the blood libels of the Middle Ages occurred on Sunday when a passenger on a New York City subway assaulted a Jewish woman. According to the Combat Antisemitism Movement, a black woman wearing a military-style camouflage coat with a patch depicting the German flag choked the 23-year-old Orthodox Jewish woman, threw her to the ground, and beat her. She managed to pull a patch of hair from the victim’s head. The victim said she suffered a concussion.”
