Two Lebanese journalists were trapped by the IDF in South Lebanon. One of them, Amal Khalil, is still trapped. Israel did a triple tap strike. Again. The second strike injured the journalists. The third strike trapped them.

real little sweetie hours

A Nissan Sentra weighs a little more than 3,000 pounds (I picked a small, common car) An Aventon Level 3 E-bike weighs 67 pounds (plus rider weight) These things do not pose remotely the same risk when traveling at 28 mph. I am begging people to understand basic physics.

Okay, but what’s the source wearing

I would submit that a gerrymander by politicians saying fuck the voters and one by voters saying fuck the politicians are two wholly different animals

One of the most frequent causes of Charlie Kirk related cancellation was accurately representing his views, or even quoting them verbatim. She expressed grief about Kirk's murder, and the only hateful thing in the comments came from Kirk himself.

but nothing is more expensive. you are simply hallucinating this

"No your honor, I didn't mislead or defraud anyone. I just have a different way of doing math."

WE HAVE NEW IMAGES OF EARTH FROM ARTEMIS II!!! LOOK AT HOW BEAUTIFUL OUR PLANET IS!! HAPPY EARTH DAY!

Absolutely dying at “we’re celebrating Confederate Heritage month for mysterious reasons”

Syria should be given 8,000,000,000 USD in free military assistance per year in order to deter this kind of behavior from its aggressive neighbor

if you could detect transness in the womb couldn't you simply assign the baby the correct gender once it's born

SCOOP: Two weeks ago, the head of the CDC delayed publication of a report showing covid vaccine cut likelihood of ER visits and hospitalizations by half. Now that report is no longer allowed to be published in CDC’s flagship scientific journal. My latest. 1/2 www.washingtonpost.com/health/2026/...

Rich guy grievance is so pathetic. Retaliating against my unprovoked abuse is the real abuse. Lashing out and then crying as official national policy

Alan Dershowitz's defection to the Republican Party could have a chilling effect on Democrats' ability to recruit authoritarian pro-Netanyahu pedophiles who continually go on Fox News to praise Donald Trump.

Sources say that if Kash Patel cannot stop binge drinking and spending taxpayer dollars on his personal travel, Donald Trump is prepared to fire the highest ranking woman at the FBI.

Jay Bhattacharya falsely accused people of “censoring” him for years — including Stanford Internet Observatory. He has his job because of pretend censorship — he parlayed being a fake victim into a government appointment. Here he is suppressing a paper because he doesn’t like its conclusions.

🚨 Donations Open 🚨 Gift giving thread will be open in 48 hours and the games will begin. If you're a person who prefers your gifts to be anonymous and want to pre-load the pot, you're up to bat. Time to make some magic, y'all.

i think it is cool that the president of the united states routinely slurs black people as biological inferior

Uni came to me! He fell asleep so peacefully

Hope John Roberts, who assured us that absolute immunity would prevent presidents from going after their predecessors, sees this

NEW: I've been shocked by some of the numbers I've been seeing on behind-the-meter power plants for data centers, so I did a little math. less than a dozen gas plants being built to power data centers for big tech companies could emit a maximum of nearly 130 million tons of CO2e each year (!)

We need Democrats to pledge that they will be every bit as ruthless as Republicans fear we will be. This is the most corrupt, lawless administration in history. If we don't hold people accountable—with real, serious consequences—it will only be worse next time.

This is Fitz and June. Fitz just got here and thinks this place is pretty great. June was here first and thinks it's time to return Fitz. 13/10 for both (TT: muester)

The number of Republicans crashing out about getting nakedly gerrymandered is, unironically, a sign that we need to do more of it. You guys are correct! This shit sucks! Welcome to the party, pals! We can all stop doing it any time you like!

A thing about the heaviest users of chatbots is that they acclimate to cloying obsequiousness. Like a billionaire and their entourage of viziers, it becomes normal to them. Any interaction that is *not* abject simpering they'll now perceive as a slap to the face, an aggressively violent outburst.

He's a liar and a killer. I don't know what else to tell people, he's a rich eugenicist, he wants as many poor people as possible to die in the name of 'health.' He's a genuinely and uniquely malign figure in American life and his appointment was an act of violence

When all this is over, I'll keep coming back to the fact that the US both 1) un-sanctioned Iranian oil and 2) blocked Iranian oil exports within a 30-day period as the best encapsulation of the strategic incoherence of this whole war.

you can make it pretty far in life by just not being an annoying dickhead. which is why it's strange that so many people seem to be dickheadmaxxing

Climate removed from top level navigation on BBC News.

A reminder while Republicans bitch about Dems finishing the redistricting fight they started: they have full control of gov’t— they can pass a law banning gerrymandering any time they want. They won’t. Republicans aren’t mad gerrymandering exists; they’re mad that they’re not the only ones using it.

One big political divide is between people who believe germs cause disease and people who believe Those People cause disease. It was pretty evident right away during the pandemic

"I was ABSOLUTELY told that the Democrats would be bringing knives to the gun fight. What the fuck are they doing bringing guns?" --a whole lot of Republicans looking at the results from Virginia right now

"should we really resort to playing dirty to defeat the nazis i–" yes. kick em in the fucking balls. what kind of question is that. grow the fuck up

every conservative political complaint comes back to "those people shouldn't count because they disagree with me"

“enhanced interrogation” instead of torture walked so “detention centers” instead of concentration camps could run.

as it becomes clear that Yes has won in VA and gerrymandering will pass, a message to Republican voters: you brought this on yourselves you convinced the most fairness-obsessed, That Wouldn’t Be Fair-minded voters in the country to affirmatively vote to put you in the dumpster you earned this

Remember, Democrats have repeatedly advanced measures to ban partisan gerrymandering and Republicans have voted against them time after time. This is the game Republicans wanted to play. OK, then.

My most liberal idpol radlib take is that I think it's pretty bad that right wing forces are actively intervening on behalf of the Klan with the full weight of the state legal apparatus

Trump is within sight of an under 30% overall approval rating. One of the most important causes right now is to establish a media narrative and popular support behind severe punishments and consequences to our present criminals running things.

Important that we had like a month of cable news beard pulling about this fellow

Alright, I’m home now so here’s the Norm update. Yesterday at 4pm, I got a text from a family I’ve been helping who had a loved one abducted a couple of days after Renée Good’s murder. This was the family that Norm Nation kept from being evicted (and you delivered). ICE had released their loved one.

Media needs to stop with "critics say" and just quote the actual language of the bill. HB 249 creates a new category of "seminudity" which can be used to arrest women who aren't nude, but are wearing clothing — leggings, t-shirts without bras — that religious groups feel is too provocative.

RFK Jr no longer disguising his MAHA movement for what it really is: eugenics

You know who else famously used paid informants to infiltrate extremist groups? The Justice Department.

It’s critical to note that this clip should be taken as evidence that Trump is (obviously) taking cuts of the funds being used to build his new white house ballroom, the arc, etc

everyone with real American manliness and a basic knowledge of military history knows that serious war efforts have never been derailed by such trifling matters as "communicable diseases"

Because some comments make me think people missed the PSAs I do semi-regularly: if you were born before 1987, you should get a MMR booster now. The second childhood dose of MMR wasn't added until 1989, and folks who were older than 2 (the age for the 2nd) may not have gotten it.
