93% counted. It will be De la Espriella vs. Cepeda in Colombia's second-round voting. Pretty interesting that only 1 in 7 voters in Colombia went for a candidate not considered "furthest left" or "furthest right" in the first round.

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse laid out documented Epstein-Russia connections on the Senate floor: Russian girls, Russian money, Russian intelligence contacts, and a DOJ actively burying files allegedly detailing Trump's assault of a teenage girl.

This is incredible. Absolute cinema.

Min VAR-kjepphest har blitt at me ikkje må bli så opptatt av å diskutere VAR-situasjonar opp og i mente at me gløymer å diskuterer kvifor VAR ikkje fungerer – og kvifor VAR aldri kan fungere. Diskusjonen i @rabonapod.bsky.social illustrerte godt: Me blir aldri einige uansett. 1/4

“The world produces fewer than 900 Patriot missiles a year, while Tehran can churn about 10,000 Shaheds a month. “Mismatch” doesn’t begin to cover it. A Ukrainian interceptor drone can stop a Shahed for around $10,000. A Patriot missile costs $4 million…” nypost.com/2026/05/09/o...

The EU flag is flying at Hungary’s parliament again after Péter Magyar was sworn in as prime minister — the first time it’s been displayed there since Viktor Orbán had it removed in 2014.

Hungary’s parliament sings “Ode to Joy” — the anthem of Europe — after Péter Magyar is sworn in as prime minister. Hungary is once again a proud member of the European Union.

Congress legislated a prohibition on withdrawing any troops from Europe or Asia without an extensive study of costs/consequences and an assurance by the Secretary that it’s in U.S. national interests — neither condition has been met. It’d be great if Congress would exercise its authority.
