this is just stunningly corrosive to public trust and there need to be congressional subpoenas and jail time this is actually a great use of oversight power the second dems take control of congress - haul polymarket execs up there and make them give you everything they have on this shit

The US press is going to hide this from you but the reason there are "strikes on Lebanon" and "confusion over the strait" is that TRUMP RANDOMLY AGREED TO THE CEASEFIRE TO ESCAPE HIS OWN BLUFF WITHOUT WORKING OUT ANY OF THESE DETAILS

Q: "How would it not be a war crime to strike Iran's bridges and power plants?" Trump: "Because they killed 45,000 people in the last month…They kill protestors. They're animals."

The horse op-ed is an instant classic. I can't tell you how much joy this piece gives me. It should be taught in every introductory writing class in no small part because the horse arguments are so compelling. "I have noticed that human children get to eat cake. But I am bigger than the children."

It’s that time of year again.

may this define her for the rest of her life. she was willing to stoop this low and still got fired. girl, bye.

PM of Poland

Both of Marco Rubio’s parents were born in Cuba. Marco Rubio was born in Miami in 1971, before they became US citizens. He is a US citizen because he was born in the US under birthright citizenship. #Hypocrites

She's a great cartoonist

"No president can decide to withdraw from NATO without Senate approval." —Marco Rubio in 2023 "It's the president's decision if we stay in NATO." —Marco Rubio in 2026

"Aktivointia on etenkin viime vuosina toteutettu yksipuolisesti lisäämällä tuenhakijoiden velvollisuuksia ja koventamalla (...) rangaistuksia." "Tärkeää olisi arvioida, mitä tapahtuu aktivointimalleissa niille ihmisille, jotka eivät pysty täyttämään velvoitteita". www.hs.fi/mielipide/ar...

SCHLAPP: Who wants to see impeachment hearings? CPAC CROWD: *cheers* SCHLAPP: No. That was the wrong answer.

Watching both sides of this war blatantly manipulate the US stock market is maddening.

Just a reminder that Trump hooked up with Stormy Daniels four months after Melania gave birth. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Tanskan velvoitetyö ei työllistä, mutta lisää osallistumista yhteiskuntaan. Tällaista hallituspuolueet kaipaavat nyt Suomeenkin. Päättäjiltä unohtuu, että kuntouttavalla työtoiminnalla on jo tällainen funktio. Sitä ollaan kuitenkin ajamassa alas liian kalliina. 🤷‍♂️ yle.fi/a/74-20214996

Trump: I’m going to put ICE in the airports, where they will target and arrest all the illegals, especially Somalis, because I hate the Democrats Headlines: Trump puts ICE officers in airports to ease long lines, provide relief for weary travelers

How can this go on for another 3 years?

It really is wild just how transparently full of shit Bessent is in particular

Just days ago, Witkoff told us on @cnbc.com that Putin said he WASN'T sharing intel and that we had to "take him at his word."

8–11 miljardin sopeutustoimien mittakaavaa yritetään nyt vähätellä puhumalla 160 miljardin euron kokoluokassa olevasta julkisesta taloudesta. Sopeutuksia ei voi kuitenkaan hakea läheskään tällaisesta osuudesta. 1/x

US lifts sanctions on Belarus as a result of today’s meeting w Lukashenko in Minsk Lifted on: Belinvestbank, Dev Bank and Ministry of Finance of Belarus, Belarusian Potash Company and "Belaruskali" “These have been removed from all sanctions lists”, per Trump’s envoy

Japanese PM Sanae Takaichi's reaction as Trump says "Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Habour?" Undoubtedly the worst American diplomatic gaffe in post-war US-Japan history.

I'm so sorry, @huffpost.com and @reuters.com, but what the hell kind of headline is this? We started the war, we killed their head of state, Israel just killed their chief of security, we killed dozens of children when we bombed a school, but IRAN is the one rejecting de-escalation? Really?

Any senator that votes to confirm this man must be tarred and feathered to eternity

Um, what? Mullin is claiming that as a congressman, he was selected for some sort of mission that required training that was "hell," and was then sent somewhere where he "smelled war." But it's all classified. And only four people know about it. And he can't share any more details.

Watch them pass this hot potato Reporter: How do you respond to attacks on the U.S. embassy in Baghdad? Trump [to Vance]: You—you want to answer that? Vance [shifts nervously]: Yeah—yeah. Marco, as Secretary of State, obviously has control over the embassy. Marco: [melts into couch]

Jännä juttu: kokoomuksen ajamassa perintöveron korvaamisessa luovutusvoittoverolla häviäisi pieniä perintöjä saava enemmistö. "Yksi selvä häviäjäryhmä olisi Lehtisen mukaan alle 30 000 euroa perivät. – Se on muuten yli puolet perillisistä, Lehtinen huomauttaa."

Welker: “Why is the United States rewarding Russia?” Wright: “This is not rewarding Russia. I understand that it can be seen that way…The oil we're lifting sanctions on…was already going to be sold. We're just changing the destination.”

If you think about it, what has happened here is that the US shut down the Strait of Hormuz and is now using the shutdown to blackmail other countries to do its bidding

There is absolutely no bottom. @cnn.com www.cnn.com/2026/03/13/p...

Inside the Department of War are two wolves: "We've shut down the Colleges of War because book learnings are woke, gay, and irrelevant to war fighting." "How come no one told us the Strait is important, there are different kinds of Kurds, Iran is big, and air power historically doesn't win wars?"

Hegseth: "We will keep pushing, keep advancing. No quarter, no mercy for our enemies." No quarter is the refusal to take prisoners and instead just execute everyone. It's been considered a war crime for over a century.

The thing about manually taking 50+ research papers and turning them into a thesis chapter is that you, the human being writing the chapter, actually absorbed some of the information about the papers and incorporated it into your own analysis.

what the fuck is going on in Sam Altman’s head

To summarize, Trump has offered asylum to Iran’s women’s soccer team and death to its men’s.

Trump: "The United States is the largest Oil Producer in the World, by far, so when oil prices go up, we make a lot of money."

Trump can just openly say “I am doing this to bring in a one party state for 50 years” and commentators will hem and haw about the intricacies of carrying off a talking filibuster

This is the exact same Guy you could find 2,000 years ago as a Roman senator gleefully listing the number of Germani slain and sold into slavery, 900 years ago exulting in the sack of Jerusalem, or 100 years ago celebrating 500 yards taken on the Western Front. Timeless chickenhawk scum.

I’m still struggling to understand the Republican definition of “war.” bsky.app/profile/atru...

Pääsemmekö kohti selkeämpää yrittäjän eläkevakuutusta? Työeläkeala on esittänyt YELin ongelmiin samaa ratkaisua kuin kansalaisaloite eli yrittäjien vakuuttamista todellisten tulojen mukaan. Aihetta pohtii Varman yhteiskuntasuhdepäällikkö @sampovarjonen.bsky.social. www.varma.fi/tama-on-varm...

COONS: Does DHS operate with arrest quotas? NOEM: No we do not. We do targeted enforcement C: I would prefer if you did, but just last year Stephen Miller went on Fox & said, 'We're setting a minimum of 3,000 arrests for ICE every day' N: There's no quota C: He's reportedly berating officials

Republicans are literally incapable of comprehending that the world doesn’t simply follow Trump’s orders the way that Republicans, or American CEOs, or Supreme Court justices do

It’s insane this is legal. People around Trump are profiting off war and death. I’m introducing legislation ASAP to ban this.
