in honor of The Onion officially taking over InfoWars, what’s a conspiracy theory you 100% believe? Michael Jordan was doing the exact same shit as Pete Rose (gambling on games his team played in) during his playing career and Nike+the NBA have…done what it took to keep that quiet.

This video shows how seismic waves from the M7.4 earthquake in Japan were detected across North America and Europe. These ground motion visualizations are created by the @earthscope.org

⚒️ 🧪 A M7.4 earthquake offshore northern Japan today led to a megaquake advisory: a warning that the risk of a M8+ earthquake is ten times higher than usual. What does that mean, and how does this event fit into the mosaic of earthquakes in this seismically active region?

Now from a16z more propaganda with AI disclaimer. “It's for illustrative purposes only, and if the robot made a mistake, hopefully that doesn't ruin anyone's weekend.”

New from 404 Media: a hacker has compromised Doublespeed, an a16z-backed startup that uses a phone farm to flood social media with AI-generated influencers. Hacker tried to use the account to post a meme calling a16z the antichrist www.404media.co/hacker-compr...

“a16z is the antichrist. sponsored by doublespeed.ai,” the meme says. It includes images of a16z co-founder Marc Andreessen; a woman pole dancing; and occult symbol Baphomet.www.404media.co/hacker-compr...t/

You always have to pay attention to what is actually happening, not what Trump says is happening. Because Trump lies about everything. Too often media serves as Trump’s daily stenographer, passing along his propaganda verbatim.

OMG Kash Patel appears to be a drunken national security threat "Meetings and briefings had to be rescheduled for later in the day as a result of his alcohol-fueled nights." "A request for 'breaching equipment' ... was made last year because Patel had been unreachable behind locked doors."

Iran is rejecting Trump’s claim that Tehran agreed to hand over its enriched uranium stockpile. A source close to Iran’s Parliament Speaker said “no form of nuclear material transfer to America has been negotiated,” directly contradicting Trump. 1/

And there it is.... Update in Trump's $10 billion lawsuit against his own I.R.S., in which he seeks taxpayer-funded damages for the prior release of his tax records Trump legal filing says he's in "discussions" with his own I.R.S. to "avoid protracted litigation"

Chief Foreign Affairs Correspondent for the Wall Street Journal:

The DoD spent over $93 billion in a single month, a record. That included $6.9M on lobster tails, $2M on king crab, $15.1M on ribeye, $1M on salmon, $139K on doughnuts and $124K on ice cream. Meanwhile, troops got carrots, old beef, and a fried boot. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

We reviewed an 18-page report detailing the second-by-second surveillance of a trans woman. They followed her as she went in and out of the bathroom, even though she posed 'no threat." It's one of a bunch of new details in this deep dive that @robertsilverman.bsky.social and I took for @wired.com

Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.

It's SO BAD NOW even TELEMUNDO AND UNIVISION are reporting on Trumps blasphemy. These "conservative" networks just had enough too.

Aluminum foil us up 40% !!!!🚨🚨 I went to the store and my happy ass picked it up and i glanced at the price and skipped back 1x and put it BACK!!! TOO EXPENSIVE. ALSO the grocery store ran out of TOMATOES! Have you seen any shortage in your neighborhood? 🚨🚨🚨

He’s lost his damn mind. Also, if he thinks Iran will “never close the Strait again” he’s delusional. He’s acting like the war is over because it’s back to status quo…ish. Still haven’t solved uranium or missiles. All we’ve done is get the Strait re-opened.

if you are growing a garden for food this year, the fertilizer shortage might not affect you -but it also might. There are many ways to DIY fertilizer, and this is a really easy one made with free raw materials

NEW: Growing fears of food shortages on USS Tripoli & other US ships in the Middle East. This photo is the kind of meals now being served. It was sent by a sailor to her family. Families are now trying to send food parcels to the ships. Full story 👉 www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

In other news, Florida reports a sudden shortage of tomato ketchup.

Popped into my favorite local burger joint for lunch. Sign on the door: "due to statewide tomato shortage, tomatoes will only be provided if specifically ordered." Why a tomato shortage? Tariffs on imported tomatos from Mexico AND lack of laborors to pick tomatos grown in TX, Ca, Fl. Thank you 47

Here's my latest for our newsletter about the consequences of the Iran war, Aftermath. We're about 3 weeks away from mass flight cancellations in Europe and already there in Asia, because of shortages of jet fuel, which is not refined widely. prospect.org/2026/04/16/a...

RUSSIA SAYS IT SUMMONS MEXICO'S ENVOY

TRUMP, throwing insults at Pope Leo: “weak on crime” “terrible for foreign policy” “catering to the Radical Left” “owes his position to me” “sit down and mind your own business” POPE LEO, unbothered: “We are called to love.”

Here’s the thing—especially on April 15: cutting the IRS isn't some abstract budget trim. It's a tax cut delivered through weaker enforcement. And it mostly goes to people with the most scope to hide income.

I pay every penny I owe in taxes, but I must say that this year really felt like a gut-punch on account of all the illegal shit that the federal government is doing with our hard-earned money

Pilot shot down in Iran visits the White House. Looks familiar, can’t quite place her though

It’s been a week and a half since the second crew member was rescued from the F-15E Strike Eagle that Iran shot down. Why haven’t we heard anything more about him, or is he in Butler, Pennsylvania?

Was there even an F-15 shot down in the first place? You have to question everything coming from this administration and being covered up by his Congressional Cleanup Crew. Personification of Jesus, doctors, DoorDash McD deliveries, etc. It’s the fake administration.

Oh!!?

Oh!!?

Few Americans paid attention to this aspect of Trump's agenda, but it was predictable (and predicted by me) that this would happen. Trump is arguably the most anti-legal immigration president ever. Congress should stop him before the damage is permanent. www.cato.org/blog/trump-h...

A man who filmed an F-15 crash in Kuwait has been jailed since March 2, and his X and Instagram accounts have been taken down. His arrest comes amid a broader wave in which hundreds have been detained for filming similar incidents, with critics calling it a crackdown on dissent.
