    Cat's Eyes
    Jan 10 2026
    The story was told later in newsprint (January 10, 1943, Hanford, CA), folded into a Sunday paper in California, trimmed to fit a column and given a confident headline that promised reassurance to families far from the sea. It said there was never a dull moment for a submarine, and that submarine duty was not a job but a way of life. It said the night belonged to sharp eyes, steady nerves, and a skipper who knew when to act. All of that was true. None of it conveyed what the night of February 3, 1942 actually felt like aboard USS Searaven SS-196.

  • The Rubicon

    The Rubicon
    Jan 10 2026
    Rome did not fall in a day, and it did not fall because one man crossed a river. That is the version history likes because it is neat and dramatic and wrong in the ways that matter. The crossing of the Rubicon in 49 BC was not a sudden act of ambition. It was the final symptom of a republic that had been quietly coming apart for a generation. By the time Julius Caesar reached that narrow stream, the Roman political system was already jammed solid. Power had shifted away from institutions and toward personalities. Laws had become weapons. Compromise was treated as weakness. The Senate still spoke the language of tradition, but it no longer controlled events. When a system cannot resolve conflict through its own rules, it eventually hands the problem to force. This not about celebrating Caesar or condemning him. It is about understanding the machinery that failed before his boots ever touched the water. We will trace how informal alliances replaced law, how fear radicalized politics, and how a constitution designed for a city state collapsed under the weight of empire. The Rubicon matters not because it was crossed, but because by then there was nowhere else to go.

  • Connecticut Ratifies

    Connecticut Ratifies
    Jan 9 2026
    In January 1788, the future of the American experiment advanced not with shouting crowds or dramatic reversals, but with a quiet vote in Connecticut. It was the fifth state to ratify the United States Constitution, and the outcome was never really in doubt. What makes this moment worth our attention is not the margin of victory, but the manner in which the decision was made. Connecticut was known then, as it often is now, for being steady, deliberate, and restrained. That temperament shaped how the state approached revolution, governance, and ultimately the Constitution itself. This video explores why that restraint mattered. Connecticut was not indifferent. It was cautious. Its delegates understood that the Constitution was imperfect, that power carried risks, and that liberty did not preserve itself automatically. They accepted the document not as an article of faith, but as a workable framework designed to survive uncertainty, foreign threats, and human fallibility. At the heart of the story is a simple idea. Union was not an abstract ideal. It was a matter of survival. Connecticut’s ratification helped legitimize the Constitution at a critical moment, proving it could earn the assent of the most careful members of the union. This is a story about decisions made without applause, and why those decisions often matter most.
