Banned over Easter Weekend. I guess I was a little too hard on Dan Bongino.

@timburchett @realDonaldTrump He’s an absolute buffoon and a liability.

@AlysssaHazel I like how "The Scarlet Citadel" ended up being a rough draft for "The Hour of the Dragon". I like both of them, but Howard really rolled up his sleeves on the second one.

"Victory meant further misery under his intolerable rule; defeat probably meant the sack of the city and red massacre. No word had come from Conan. They did not know what to expect at his hands. They remembered that he was a barbarian."
We finally have returned to our re-read of Howard's Conan! Today's story? A Witch Shall Be Born!
My perspective is definitely jacked because we just came off of The People of the Black Circle (my new favorite Conan story), but A Witch feels a little like a downgrade. It might be because, despite two engaging scenes (the crucifixion and the Mutiny) it feels like Conan is more an addition to the story rather than a central protagonist. Valerius is almost a dualagonist, which is the first time to occur in the Conan line up.
That being said, it's only real crime is proximity. It has unique Villains, Conan becoming more of an active agent in the world at large, and "Thaug" which I swear is the same creature as "Thog" from Slithering Shadow.
Anywho, definitely worth reading.

There's nothing more permanent than a temporary government program.

Over the first 4 years, the Big Beautiful Bill adds nearly $2 trillion to our deficit, beyond the deficit that would have been caused by Biden level spending. That’s right, Republicans have increased spending, and I’m taking all kinds of heat for calling them out on the betrayal.

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (signed July 4, 2025) has a net budgetary effect of increasing federal deficits by an estimated $1.8–2.0 trillion over its first four years (FY2026–2029). Per CRFB/CBO scoring: +$500B in 2026 and +$635B in 2027 alone, with elevated costs continuing into 2028–2029 before declining as some offsets phase in. Tax cuts (e.g., TCJA extensions, no tax on tips/overtime) are front-loaded; spending reductions (e.g., Medicaid/SNAP reforms) ramp up later. Total conventional 10-year deficit increase: $3.4T (+$4.1T with interest).
