NATO chief Rutte: "Russia has brought war back to Europe, and we must be prepared for the scale of war our grandparents and great-grandparents endured." 😳

the disney and openai partnership is a bleak look into a potential future where all of these creative arts companies and media industry of every type is entirely owned and operated by big tech

This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him. I don’t know how else to say it…

"We have made the University dismantle it's DEI committee!" "Great. Have they started any new committees up?" "Lessee, yeah, they have this new to make sure nobody is unfairly omitted due to background. Why do you ask?" "No particular reason."

Yikes

UPDATE: Another Chicago-area church has put up an immigration-themed Nativity scene. A church member at Urban Village Church sent this one along, where Mary, Joseph and Jesus are gone and replaced with a sign that reads: “Due to ICE activity in our community, the Holy Family is in hiding.”

Ending DEI practices in college admissions will expose an uncomfortable truth. Women now outperform men academically. If universities stop trying to gender balance incoming classes but instead admit based on merit, they’ll reject men at higher rates than they do today.

This is an abomination.

College football dominance since the mid 20th century can be traced to when black players started to thrive 70s-80s black Nebraska players 80s-90s - black Miami/ACC players 2010s - SEC finally gets it right with black players This theory is law. Prove me wrong.

My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’

Sabrina Carpenter made the White House delete their fuck ass tweet.

Rand Paul tells me that he wants the full video of the Venezuelan boat strike released. “And I think if the public sees images of people clinging to boat debris and being blown up, I think that there is a chance that finally, the public will get interested enough in this to stop this.”

It's kind of mind-blowing how these tech dorks think they're so smart and have the utmost confidence in their genius, while actual smart people are constantly doubting themselves and critiquing their own arguments.

(Bill Ackman places a $1m bet) “Well, now all we know what’s true!”

Never believe the fuckers who say "why bother, they already won"

????????????

This timing makes a lot more sense now, doesn’t it? Adm. Alvin Holsey resigned in October as commander of U.S. Southern Command right after flagging concerns about those U.S. military strikes on “suspected” drug boats in the Caribbean. He served for 37 years.

What a coincidence that, in addition to their passion for American politics, they also happen to be monetized.

TN07 is a story about gerrymandering: the GOP cracked Nashville into 3 districts when it redrew the 2022 map, destroying the Dem seat there. Fast-forward: a section of Nashville, which just 5 years ago had a Dem representative, is now voting Dem by huge margins but it's been designed to not matter.

The family of a Colombian man believed to have been killed in a US strike in the Caribbean has filed what’s believed to be the first complaint against such attacks with the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR).

“ i’m so surprised!!”……. said no one ever.

You can’t convince me that everyone involved in DOGE should not face DOJ investigation and prison time if convicted when this chaos is over.

“At a conference in Algiers, diplomats and leaders convened to advance an African Union resolution passed at a meeting earlier this year calling for justice and reparations for victims of colonialism.” Colonialism still shapes our present. Colonial states need to make reparations for their harms.

Oxford University Press has chosen “rage bait” as its 2025 Word of the Year. The open-compound word, which beat out “biohack” and “aura farming,” goes back at least to 2002. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/30/a...

MR isn't a youtuber she's basically a free nanny about 15million american parents are immensely grateful for, and trying to make out that she's a monster is just going to activate the critical thinking skills of the most oblivious soft zionist

New Yorkers kept telling me the same thing: they’re thinking of leaving because they can’t afford to raise their kids here. Universal childcare isn’t just a promise — it’s how we make this a city for everyone.

Good front-paging.

Oh yea… Austin Powers: Mission Possible (2027) Staring.. Sheila Buff and Anne Hathaway (there’s a reason those 2 are chosen)

Hahahahaha

Twitter was so traumatizing that people are timid to speak about good shit.

A sad irony in Washington, D.C., where West Virginia National Guardsmen were shot today. Six days ago, a court ruled their deployment was illegal, but stayed the order pending appeal. My heart goes out to these public servants and their families. oag.dc.gov/sites/defaul...

Unbelievable. Very few things piss me off more than anti-vax morons killing their children.

At the Vatican, I joined a Ukrainian delegation working to return tens of thousands of Ukrainian children taken from their families by Russian forces. I joined these brave parents and children to meet with Pope Leo XIV about efforts to bring these kids home.
