Poor Yoon! The only person who can save him now is his little fascist pal @GordonGChang, who's doing everything he can to blame this man's crimes on the commies. "Yoon assigned inmate No. 3617, held in 6-meter cell at Seoul Detention Center."

Japan has a particularly cruel version of the death penalty. Very disturbing thread.
Japanese court in Osaka rejected an appeal by death row inmates to be notified sooner when their execution will occur. Currently they are told only an hour or two before. Up until the 1970s they were told at least by the day before.

Finally. Good on Ishiba.
Japanese Prime Minister Ishiba spoke about Trump's tariffs in a campaign speech today:.“This is a battle for our national interest. We refuse to be taken lightly. Even with an ally, we must speak clearly and with dignity. What must be protected will be protected."."President

Earlier & I'm still in the dark. MOOD on a thunder stormy day without internet and lots of lies from my provider, after 10 very bad days in DC due to unforeseen events - a story I will tell at the right time. I need 1976 Hard Rain live Bob. Send good vibes. WTF indeed.

The Senator from Maine is a Nazi collaborator.
Question: “Do you know how many Americans the Israeli military has killed in the past 20 months?”. Sen. Susan Collins: *silence*. Question: “No insight on the Americans killed by the Israeli military, Senator?”. Collins: “I’m pro-Israel”.

As I write today in Substack, this has always been true with respect to Japan. South Korea, too. This is not "unprecedented" at all: AEI just doesn't like how Trump goes about it.
Trump's aggressive use of economic and military power to coerce not just enemies but friends is unprecedented. But the emerging Trump Doctrine also risks depleting America’s future strength, writes @HalBrands.

Just wrote a Substack commentary about GM Korea's labor dispute "over possible walkout, facility sale tensions amid U.S. tariff woes.” Hidden history: GM invested in Korea in the 1970s under the protection of US troops, as illustrated below.
