As I understand their argument, he would have the right to kill political rivals if he ordered the US military to do the hit - since then he would be acting in his official capacity. If he hired a hitman, then he would be acting as a private citizen and that would be illegal.…

On Russian reserves. To answer some of the reasonable objections: I am not very worried about precedent. I think the contingency is well defined. If you engage in physical war, then you are at risk. Holding dollar or euro reserves does not imply holding them in the US or in…

Wow.
How much must Palestinians pay to escape Gaza? At least $5,000 for an adult and $2,500 for a child, paid to a firm with ties to the Egyptian army and intelligence services. Amid fears of a looming Israeli offensive in Rafah, prices show no sign of falling. economist.com/middle-east-an…
Very funny piece by @j_amesmarriott on podcasts today thetimes.co.uk/article/6378c7…
NEW: I’m not sure people fully appreciate how dire the US life expectancy / mortality situation has got. My column: enterprise-sharing.ft.com/redeem/75e5e3d… And some utterly damning charts. 1) at *every* point on the income distribution, Americans live shorter lives than the English.

Still can't quite digest that a former and possible future American president is telling the supreme court that he should have immunity to kill political rivals. Utterly surreal.

It’s a double Ukraine podcast day. @FT listeners, there’s no escaping me. I joined @gideonrachman on this week’s Rachman Review to talk about what difference the $60 billion U.S. military aid package can make and whether Ukraine can still hope to win the war. 🎙️ US aid package…

Indeed- although the powerful catalyst in '68 was the draft. There was a more energised, larger protest movement partly because the Vietnam war intruded into everyday life in the U.S. Compare even the scale & intensity of campus protest now v. then.

When the Democrats held their convention in Chicago in 1968, there were riots outside led by anti Vietnam war protesters. I wonder if we might see something similar this summer over Gaza, when the Dems hold another Chicago convention?
