Mayor: The Best Job in Politics
Michael A. Nutter
Ex Philly mayor Michael Nutter, who is African American, unloaded on the White, progressive DA: “I have to wonder what kind of messed up world of white wokeness Krasner is living in to have so little regard for human lives lost, many of them Black & brown.”https://t.co/aaIK84iSbh

Max Boot
And for all the instant experts telling me I have no idea what happened in Afghanistan, I humbly suggest you read the chapter on that subject in my book "Invisible Armies: An Epic History of Guerrilla Warfare from Ancient Times to the Present." https://www.amazon.com/Invisible-Armies-History-Guerrilla-Warfare/dp/0871406888 https://twitter.com/MaxBoot/status/1500914071998238723

The Committed
Viet Thanh Nguyen
Want to give belated props to @viet_t_nguyen. I finally read “The Sympathizer” and it’s as good as everyone says. A flat out masterpiece. One of the two best novels of the Vietnam War (the other is “Matterhorn” by Karl Marlantes). Can’t wait to read “The Committed”! https://t.co/xbtWIoj0FE

Strategy
B. H. Liddell Hart
If you want to understand the Ukrainian way of war, you could do worse than to pick up, as I recently did, a 1954 book called “Strategy” by the influential British military thinker Basil Liddell Hart. https://t.co/IOCv1hhvQO

JFK: The Book of the Film
Oliver Stone
Good list. So many great movies like "Battle of Algiers," "Manchurian Candidate," "Dr. Strangelove," etc.! But... where's "Seven Days in May" and "Network"? And why include Oliver Stone's JFK? It's a pack of lies from start to finish. As I noted: https://t.co/fVOfq0SNF6 https://t.co/MvhC23u4E5

The Road to Unfreedom: Russia, Europe, America

Normal People
Sally Rooney
Sally Rooney doesn’t want her new novel published in Israel, but her bestseller “Normal People” was published in China by a publishing house with close links to the tyrannical Communist regime. That bespeaks an inexcusable double standard. My latest. https://wapo.st/3aQqKOc

Trial
Richard North Patterson
.@RicPatterson’s new novel is out. I’ve read it and recommend it highly. It’s a gripping legal thriller set against the backdrop of the fight for voting rights in modern Georgia. Verdict: It’s a great beach read and a compelling portrait of modern America. https://t.co/RlHJp4eTnw https://t.co/mcY5CBSmjH
