This week on Rational Security, Alan, Quinta, and Scott went guestless to discuss the week\u2019s big national security news, including:

• \u201cNe Me Quitte Pas.\u201d The nearby island nation of Haiti is hitting new levels of instability, as paired economic and political crises have given way to open gang warfare in broad swathes of the country. While the events have some calling for external intervention, others have expressed major reservations with such a step, given its past failings in the country. Where might this crisis lead?
• \u201cI\u2019m Rubber, You\u2019re Su(ing).\u201d Last week, the Fifth Circuit released a real barn-burner of an opinion in the matter of NetChoice v. Paxton, wherein it adopted a narrow reading of the First Amendment in order to resurrect a Texas law severely limiting how social media platforms can moderate content. What will this case mean for platforms moving forward?
• \u201cFlying Worst Class.\u201d Florida Governor Ron Desantis became the latest Republican governor this week to fly undocumented migrants to northern cities in purported protest of the Biden administration\u2019s immigration policies. But his move has sparked unexpected furor among Florida\u2019s Cuban and Venezuelan immigrant communities\u2014as well as at least one criminal investigation. What was he thinking and where will this controversy go next?
