Wtaf is this rape apologist garbage.

This is zero percent surprising to anyone who's worked with Jared. Even as a businessman, he's a shitty negotiator because he doesn't understand diplomacy there either. In some ways, he's a product of his industry. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/13/o...

‼️ TRUMP ATTACKS POPE LEO (Yes, this is real.)

Regret to inform everyone that Peter Magyar beat the world’s smartest illiberal populist in large measure by working incredibly hard for 2 straight years, meaning the rest of us are just going to have to get off our asses and do shit rather than just complaining.

ORBÁN CONCEDED

Fuck yeah

More than 20 women. And leadership knew.

Of all of the post-splashdown photos from the Artemis II mission, this is my favorite. It captures the best of who we are, the best of who we can be. (More here: www.nasa.gov/gallery/arte...)

You’re right. That might not be enough time to bury the Statue of Liberty and distribute 400 million ape costumes.

Two things will happen to you when you hit play. First, you'll see how long that video is and think to yourself, "There's no way I'm going to be glad I watched that whole damn thing." Second, when you get to the end, you'll say to yourself, "I'm so glad I watched that whole damn thing."

STAT: Trump administration drops court fight to cap NIH payments for research overhead costs by Megan Molteni @statnews.com @mmolteni.bsky.social bit.ly/4tVncB5

He’s 100% getting a cut.

Recklessly producing and then accepting a situation where a foreign power can restrict freedom of navigation is not just a strategic defeat, it is a reversal of the most fundamental foreign policy and national security priority of the United States since the founding of the republic.

@welch.senate.gov looking for your name here

@balint.house.gov please get on this list

This is how democracies fall... Look at the cynical fatalism that so many Russians have. They have given up their agency. When you abandon your agency, you are easy to control. Care. Fight for your future. Fight for the future of people that will come after you. It is the right thing to do.

Reason Kuwait is a main target of Iranian fire: FRANCE 24 has verified and geolocated multiple videos showing that, on at least two occasions, on March 24 and 31, US missiles were launched from HIMARS launchers inside the territory of Kuwait. www.france24.com/en/middle-ea...

Rumor is it was a very dicey situation

I feel like “the world passed peak gas-powered car sales in 2017” is not a widely known fact

NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has taken steps to block or delay promotions for more than a dozen Black and female senior officers across all four branches of the military, according to nine U.S. officials familiar with the process.

You kind of have to remind yourself, because it just breaks the brain, but the Atlantic is still publishing this "random lefty used words that annoyed me" shit *while fascists are destroying the country*. Not that there's a "threat" of fascism. It's here! Look out your goddamn window!

Enjoy those RTO mandates!

Trump: We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country, we have 50 states, all these people, we're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things

“Last justice of the mochicans” lmao perfect.

Over the weekend, LeMonde and @francoisdm.bsky.social published a VERY interesting image of what appears to be some of Iran's highly enriched uranium enroute to a secure base in Isfahan last June. Amidst all this talk of seizing Iran's uranium, it's worth discussing in a little more detail...🧵

In elementary school I observed that children who were ashamed of their ignorance called things they did not understand “stupid” and “dumb.” The practice protected their egos at the expense of their minds. Both words remain favorites of the insecure Secretary of Defense.

I’ve seen enough. Congrats Broadview Six!

I would love for journalists to look into this fairly low-level overflight of 101st Airborne attack helicopters over the downtown Nashville #NoKings rally. Does the 101st often fly that path through downtown Nashville? If not, why there and then? Was this deliberate?

I’m high key obsessed with the fact that there are 50 million white men in America that are specifically afraid of cities in 2026. Like totally terrified of a 7 Eleven. Pissing their pants at the sight of a mixed-use development. It might be the funniest thing in the world to me.

Market Alert: #$PSKY (Paramount-Skydance) is officially in a death spiral. 📉 As of today, the stock is cratering toward $8.88—a level not seen since the 2009 financial crisis. This is a massive red flag for the upcoming April 23 merger vote. #WBD #Paramount #StockMarket

This is quite something from Singapore's Minister of Foreign Affairs, Vivian Balakrishnan, in an interview with Reuters. The end of the post-war order, diagnosed in technocratic language. www.mfa.gov.sg/newsroom/pre...

But anyways, sure, let’s bring back a statue to a loser traitor who couldn’t even win a single battle outside one state and is responsible for the death of more Americans on both sides of the struggle than most nation-states that we’ve fought, seems great

Cowcaine compound

All costumed-up tho

40 minutes into SCOTUS oral arguments about whether to ban postmark deadlines for mail ballots, someone finally pointed out that it’s desirable for voters’ ballots to count
