    Every year, devastating wildfires burn across the United States. In January, catastrophic wildfires gutted parts of Southern California. The Eaton and Palisades Fires destroyed homes and took lives. In Arizona, wildfires are burning hotter, with more intensity – and burning longer than in years past.

The idea that this is an outrage without precedent reflects a complete lack of historical knowledge. Read any history of the Cold War. Washington and Moscow have gone after each other with ruthless tactics for 75 years. Not defending this, of course. Just noting it is the norm.
