We are taking the family to the airport today. We've logistics well in hand with supplies of whisky, chianti and Arturo Fuentes stockpiled in strategic locations. We plan on drinking a lot over the next ten days. Wish us luck. We have a dinner date Saturday night with friends. Look at us!

'“Eliminating racial discrimination,” Chief Justice John Roberts writes in today’s ruling, “means eliminating all of it.” That ruling released just minutes ago swept aside decades of affirmative-action programs at Harvard, the University of North Carolina, and likely everywhere — even if Roberts reserved a narrow test on other challenges.'

Israel Radar reports: 'Israel's security forces face most dangerous period since 1948 war with threats on multiple fronts, warns military journalist Ron Ben-Yishai. IDF intensifies war drills but most info remains classified as defense officials discuss threats behind closed doors.— Israel Radar (@IsraelRadar_com) June 29, 2023' Lots of stuff still classified, and that's interesting.
