What are the names of the U.S. Navy officers carrying out these orders to serially bomb civilian boats that pose no threat to their own vessels, killing everyone aboard? Surely they’ll want to take personal credit for this honorable service and perhaps wear a little campaign medal on their chest.

Reporter: Multiple reports indicate Tom Homan was recorded accepting a bag with $50,000 in cash from FBI agents posing as business executives in an undercover sting operation. But the Justice Department closed the case under Trump.

Critical part of the President's new $100,000 charge for H1-B visas: The Administration can also offer a $100,000 discount to any person, company, or industry that it wants. Replacing rules with arbitrary discretion. Want visas? You know who to call and who to flatter.

Standing armies! Yay!

Amazing photo of Windsor Castle taken last night

They arn’t interested in facts, they are interested in narrative shaping. Pay attention

I am so pleased I had the opportunity to provide this commentary in @dialogueshg.bsky.social about why I think that #energygeographies are so important to understanding the drivers and dynamics of #energytransitions and #energyjustice doi.org/10.1177/2043... @aag-energy.bsky.social

It was weirdly fitting that the Charlie Kirk murder blended into the 9/11 anniversary as once again Americans were told to “watch what they say” The hypocritical censorship around a “free speech hero.” My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/comm...

Today would be a really good day to call your rep. If they're red tell them to sign the Epstein files discharge petition. If they're blue insist on the healthcare cuts being reversed permanently or not at all. Why on Earth give Americans just a few more months so the GOP gets reelected?

We're outside of the US Open because their sponsor Chubb is insuring methane terminals that hurt people and planet. Chubb: it's match point and the ball is in your court. 🎾 🎾 Listen to communities and stop insuring Freeport LNG NOW! #ChubbAtTheOpen #USopen @planetoverprofit.org @ran.org

Remind me again which party spent the last decade railing against so-called cancel culture?

See ICE? Mark the location on Waze as "icy conditions". Brilliant tactic being used in DC. Let's spread it.

Ohio even had a wide loophole until *2024*. "Up until now, drugging and sexually assaulting your partner wasn’t a crime as long as they had a ring on their finger."

Iran has murdered another Woman, Life, Freedom protester in its textbook way of no transparency or due process. And according to this piece “from July 23 to August 22, at least 160 people were executed in Iran, averaging one every five hours.” One person every 5 hrs. www.iranintl.com/en/202509062...

At least 19 have been killed in Nepal; police have been using force against protesters demonstrating against the government and the ban on platforms including Facebook, X and YouTube.

Exclusive: Jeffrey Epstein’s estate has given Congress a copy of the 2003 birthday book, including the letter with Trump’s signature that he has said doesn’t exist.

This detail from the WSJ’s new Trump-Epstein reporting also seems pretty bad www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

"[A]t least nineteen dead and over 100 injured during a crackdown on the youth-led protests against corruption and social media ban in Nepal." "Police responded with water cannons, tear gas, rubber bullets and live ammunition." #Nepal #Policing

Really good question.

#Pinks #ProudBlue More detailed breakdown on RFK Jr.s claim that “everyone can still get the Covid vaccine.” This fact checking article concludes that the barriers his meddling has caused makes this statement mostly false. The man is a liar. www.pbs.org/newshour/hea...

Yesterday, Nazis in Ohio defended the Epstein files while calling for the death of pedophiles. Yeah, I know. You can't make this up.

“Over the past 20 years, Paris has undergone a major physical transformation, trading automotive arteries for bike lanes, adding green spaces and eliminating 50,000 parking spaces. Part of the payoff has been invisible — in the air itself.” Leadership, strategy, real action, common sense. #Paris

BREAKING: Big moment as CDC staff stage a mass walkout. They have lined the street outside its HQ to greet and salute the four top officials who have resigned in protest at RFK Jr’s attack on the agency’s science base. (🎥 AP)

I realize NO ONE else has this take, but I'm gonna say it: The National Guard are scabs now. These are potentially union jobs, many of which were outsourced, now they're insourced, but without union labor.

Yup. Also: a person can be a citizen of Israel without being Jewish! About 20% of Israel’s population are either Muslim, Christian, Druze, Bedouin, etc. Many are descendants of Palestinians who remained inside Israel after 1948.

This is so obviously true it makes you wonder why so many people refuse to see it

Bastards.

The prolonged public torturing of a single man because the state cannot admit to its errors is not something that occurs in a free country

Information about Trump's alleged, inappropriate sexual interest in underage girls comes from witness testimony, court filings & investigative journalism, not directly from Epstein. Demand personal & professional integrity in our leaders.

Trump is costing Midwest residents millions in higher energy bills by forcing an old coal plant to remain open, now for a second time bridgemi.com/michigan-env...

Hundreds of people have died in Pakistan from deadly flooding. Rising temperatures due to burning fossil fuels allow the atmosphere to hold more moisture, leading to heavier downpours during storms. Pakistan is responsible for less than 1% of global greenhouse gas emissions.

Again I didn’t start out thinking Trump was hiding something truly horrific vis a vis Epstein, but literally every single thing he’s done…

unusually great coverage in English of the 'new' guerillas in #Colombia amazonunderworld.org/the-state-of...

DeSantis is pure, unadulterated evil...as is the rest of the GOP. “I can’t believe that the DeSantis administration would insult the families and survivors of the Pulse tragedy in this way,” Smith said. “But I suppose I should not be surprised.” www.orlandosentinel.com/2025/08/21/r...

Great clear explanation of how proportional representation solves gerrymandering. No constitutional change required! www.ifyoucankeepit.org/p/how-to-end...

Full @theguardian.com coverage of our 31st annual Executive Excess report on CEO-worker pay gaps and stock buybacks at the 100 largest low-wage corporations: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Soldiers in MRAPs rolling around Union Station—blocks from the Capitol—seems silly, performative, and useless. But it raises a much darker question: What would Trump have done on Jan. 6, 2021 if he had possessed then the kind of control over local law enforcement that he seeks to acquire today?

Curious how this Guardian headline compares to the coverage in other outlets. I mean really, do we have to even ask if it's true?

Where's the "more speech" we were promised?

Imagine the shitstorm if a judge cited their understanding of Islamic obligations in such a ruling...

A message for the most “transparent Administration” in history: Release the Epstein files.

"Their resilience is why these sites still exist today to offer a fuller account of American history—and as a visitor, it is a privilege to hear their stories, on their own terms." 🗃️ www.cntraveler.com/story/museum...

It’s clear: Republicans believe government should be run by and for billionaires. Democrats believe government shouldn’t work just for the wealthy – but for everyone.

Gulf of Epstein

Are we winning yet? Release the #EpsteinFiles www.wxyz.com/news/region/...
