Media when the GOP vice president of the United States is in group chats with teenage groypers: I sleep Media when random Dem senate candidate follows women on Instagram: real shit

1/ A Russian soldier fighting near Pokrovsk says that the area is a scene of carnage, with dead Russians lying everywhere. Soldiers' families are being sent death notices even before the men go into assaults. Only four out of his group of 120 men survived one assault. ⬇️

It still blows my mind that the lawless government paramilitary stormtroopers from every 1990's conspiracy theory have arrived and all the don't tread on me 1776 people just pulled a fade.

This shit is bonkers. Give the GWOT the ol' college try one more time? Don't you need a Gulf of Tonkin before you start talking about this kind of crap?

This was a really good book.

there will be a prominent political assassin that did it bc of an unhealthy AI relationship.

Passes the sniff test

Thanks, Obama.

I've heard shit like this before and my question is always, what the fuck is a red city?

It's a silver lining, but I'm happy that we are finally mask totally off on these corporate news outfits, and who they really serve. Hint: it ain't you.

We got a great interview coming up today with a retired NYPD detective who worked Harlem, the Bronx, counter-terrorism cases, thwarted a school shooting, and deployed to Afghanistan to work a kidnapping case. youtu.be/LRiptKsdP94?...

The BBC visits an IDF outpost on the eastern edge of Gaza City: “The Gaza of maps and memories is gone, replaced by a monochrome landscape of rubble stretching flat and still for 180 degrees…there's almost nothing left to orient you here or identify the neighbourhoods.”

It's wild to me how these big media outlets constantly platform the grossest people available as if they have something relevant to say.

Garth Ennis writing The Punisher is fucking amazing.

AI is the new COVID destined to clip the most vulnerable 1% and our government is too pussy to do a thing about it because our economy is held together by scotch tape and bullshit promises about technology.

I have a sense that people are starting to get fed up with this shit.

They tried so hard it was hilarious. It reminded me of 2016. You gotta vote for Hillary. Yeah, but we hate her. Okay, but you still gotta vote for her cause we said so. That went swimmingly of course.

why does RFK just zoom off instead of helping the dude

bro

Same trams I rode on when I was there twenty years ago. Would have thought they would be replaced, but if it's not broken don't fix it I guess.

The late stage manifestation of why go to school and learn anything when I can just google it.

If the sub does not fit you must acquit.

Yet another data point for why US intelligence does not trust its German counterparts. Also why we actively seek penetrations of their services.

"The irony of Trump now threatening military action against Nigeria, even as uncertainty lingers over his intentions in Venezuela, is as obvious as it is bitter. In both places, he seems poised to reinvent America’s failed global war on terror from scratch, using new justifications." Gift link.

🥴

That Fox News story about people threatening to riot of they don't get their welfare bennies, but it was AI generated BS to begin with, is getting interesting traction on social media regardless. Like, people know it is fake but it becomes real for them in their mind.

Who knew that FDNY had deal breaker views about...Israel which is a foreign country I believe. Do they have any other views about any other countries we should know about? NYC Fire Commissioner to Quit Over Mamdani Stance on Israel - Bloomberg share.google/u4nCw8SxcGCX...

It's crazy how when a brown guy gets elected the narrative is that he is going to install secular administrative Soviet style Marxism while also installing Islamic Sharia law.

This war on Christian's thing seems to have very narrow left and right limits.

What Mamdani Giving His Victory Speech At 11:19 PM Says About How He’ll Govern - And Why You Should Be Concerned

I'm sorry to do a whataboutism, but the press can't normalize a fascist cult and then expect me to freak out because some young guy wants to open government subsidized grocery stores. That math there just doesn't compute for me.

I'd be lying if I said I'm not enjoying all the meltdowns.

What happens when you distill 2025 into a single social media post? This. This is what you get.

The press has acted as if this is a national, if not international, election.

It’s cool how there is an entire group of people who get influence over DOD and security clearances despite drug use, unethical behavior, and shady financials because something something innovation and something something lethality

I was promised Ayn Rand style ubermensch titans of industry. What I got was a bunch of twinkle toes light weights that could be blown over by a moderately strong gust of wind.

This is amazing content.

war is hell(mann's)

Probably going to be your next Secretary of War.

Almost a minor footnote in the grand scheme of things, but Kyrgyzstan is set to pass new legislation to grant security services access to telecom operators & block communication in cases of “emergency” The “revolution-proofing” of Kyrgyzstan continues kg.akipress.org/news:2357741...

Portions of the DeSantis crew are trying to pivot to this (I think because they see the direction some of the wind is blowing) and like, no, you willingly hired guys you were aware knew what a sonnenrad was and would put it in a campaign ad for the lulz Sure you fired him after he did it, but cmon

Approx. 100 Special Forces vets were interviewed for this book with chapters on Det A, Det K, Blue Light, Green Light, and the Commanders In-extremis Force. 183 reviews and going strong! Makes a great holiday gift... www.amazon.com/We-Defy-Chap...

LMAO. Never been to an NRA event I suppose.

If there was an app that blocked AI content I would gladly pay a monthly subscriber fee for it. I make no apologies.

Looks like my little project had been "leaked" onto Amazon. The book is going to be super topical considering the subject matter. www.amazon.com/Most-Dangero...

Probably accurate but the DNC sure as shit won't accept it until they hand the Republicans five more presidencies.

That's actually a pretty huge security package in this city. Most billionaires are not going to have anything that robust. Maybe a couple guys working in shifts, a car, and a guy at home monitoring cameras.

Next up. I've wanted to read this one for a long time.

Remember, they're currently arguing that Biden's pardons are illegitimate because he signed the actual forms with an autopen. Trump, meanwhile, repeatedly insists he knows nothing at all about one of his very controversial pardons. Never heard of the guy! Sorta seems like a problem.
