The past couple of weeks have been crazy — even by the insanely high standards for absurdity that President Donald Trump has set. There were so many things that were either completely bonkers, brazen, or bizarre that we couldn’t pick just one for our weekly editorial. Instead, we offer a sampling of random thoughts on Trump, Ukraine, politics, the Kurds, God working in mysterious ways, and much more.

Sylvie Goulard ne sera donc pas Commissaire européen. Personne n’avait vraiment vu venir le vote des eurodéputés rejetant la candidate française (par 82 voix contre 29), coup de théâtre qui a pris Emmanuel Macron par surprise.

L’ouvrage d’Alexandre Devecchio, Recomposition[1], se veut un plaidoyer pour la démocratie sous la forme d’une enquête sur les mouvements populistes qui se déploient aujourd’hui en Europe et aux Etats-Unis. L’auteur décrit donc ces différents mouvements, non sans laisser entendre une sympathie à leur égard, et conclut son ouvrage par un appel à Réconcilier le peuple et les élites pour sauver la démocratie. Vaste programme pourrait-on dire, en paraphrasant une phrase bien connue.

Reading Time: 1minute Polls show that more and more Americans want President Donald Trump impeached — and that includes some Republicans. But why? They all have their reasons.

Jeremy Hammond, Former Wikileaks Source, Held in Contempt (Chris)

The author writes, “Former hacktivist Jeremy Hammond, a one-time WikiLeaks source, who admitted to leaking stolen files from a private intelligence firm, was held in contempt on Thursday after allegedly refusing to testify before a federal grand jury in the Eastern District of Virginia.

We live with the belief that political liberty is a durable construct, arrived at by some process of “enlightenment,” and that the architecture of the Constitution will somehow save us. Daron Acemoglu, an MIT economics professor and the guest of this week’s WhoWhatWhy podcast, thinks this view is a fantasy.

The majority of people are being emotionally manipulated and played like a fiddle by none other than corporate mainstream media that do the bidding of the corporate political elite. If you’re here, chances are you already know that. But it’s a truth that cannot be repeated enough.

‘It’s Ridiculous’: Gas Prices Spike Above $4 in California (Reader Steve)

The author writes, “The state has had the biggest increase in the country over the past week, and its prices were significantly more than the national average of $2.66 a gallon Monday, according to a AAA report.”

A CIA employee who lodged a whistleblower complaint over President Trump’s request that Ukraine investigate former Vice President Joe Biden has a “professional relationship with one of the 2020 candidates,” according to the Washington Examiner‘s Byron York – citing a source familiar with last Friday’s impeachment inquiry interview with Inspector General Michael Atkinson.

Israeli foreign minister suggests it’s a step closer to “peace agreements.”

J'ouvre le dictionnaire à la lettre H... c'est le moins que je puisse faire pour accomplir une tâche d'ordre intellectuel... C'est le Président Emmanuel Macron qui m'interpelle avec son hydre islamiste.

As we predicted in the wake of the White House’s late Sunday announcement that “Turkey will soon be moving forward with its long-planned operation into Northern Syria” and that American troops will withdraw from the “immediate area” — this will ensure that the United States’ Kurdish proxies in Syria, now in Erdogan’s cross hairs, will quickly do a deal with “the devil we know” — that is, come unde

Agissant sur le fondement de la loi pour l’élimination des armes biologiques et chimiques (1) et au regard de l’implication alléguée de la Russie dans le cas Skripal, les États-Unis (2) ont mis en œuvre le 6 août 2018 (3) un ensemble de sanctions à l’encontre de la Fédération de Russie qui devait, sauf revirement exprès des autorités russes constaté dans les trois mois, être complété par une nouvelle vague de sanctions.

Un an après, nous revenons sur les développements intervenus en matière de sanctions mettant en jeu la Russie.

L’économie de la Russie s’est beaucoup transformée depuis les années 1990. Pas toujours en bien faut-il ajouter. Ce que l’on appelle la transition – soit la construction d’une économie de marchés – a eu un impact fort, et souvent destructeur. Ceci fut aggravé par des politiques économiques ineptes du temps de Boris Eltsine, politiques qui furent largement soutenues par les pays occidentaux, ces derniers n’hésitant pas à intervenir dans la vie politique russe, comme lors des élections présidentielles de 1996.

Russia’s response to the White House’s late Sunday shock announcement saying “Turkey will soon be moving forward with its long-planned operation into Northern Syria” has been relatively muted.
