Requiem for a Pete
Well, the primary is moving pretty quickly and we’ve seen the demise of the Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar campaigns. We obviously have no love for Pete, and we’re happy to see him go -- even if this means we’re likely to see him all haunting Democratic politics for the rest of our lives. But for now, he’s done.
We also discuss the US-Taliban peace agreement and whether or not it will mark an end to the Afghan war. We certainly hope so, but there’s very little way of knowing at this point.
Additionally, it seems the Marine Corps is trying to banish Confederate imagery and titles from its ranks and bases. This forces us to say something we very rarely even consider saying: well done, Marines.
