vance is such a fucking asshole

Let Mark Cuban serve as a reminder that billionaires are not your friends!

Someone may have made tens of millions betting oil would fall right before Trump announced progress with Iran. If that trade was based on advance knowledge, this is not just a market story.

Total clown show. The entire world knows he’s bluffing. Iran knows he’s bluffing, and that’s why he can’t get them to make any concessions. He’s a complete fool who has no idea how to get out of the war he started by getting anything in return.

Yesterday a doctor popped by here to tell me to watch my language and it irritated the fuck out of me. Did I need to curse in this post? Yes I did. The word fuck is necessary to sufficiently convey my level of annoyance. Oh and also, the U.S. is being destroyed so swearing seems appropriate.

So, looks like they’re preparing another Gulf of Tonkin incident for Cuba. Expect them to follow the Maduro template. Potential tinder box.

A masked vegan with six genders? Who is this superhero?

I can’t believe the guy who invented “groceries” would be so unconcerned about prices

It’s really hard to describe how insane this story is. Of course Patel went snorkeling over the USS Arizona - that’s what happens when you put an irreverent internet troll in charge of a government agency. Disrespectful assclown.

NYT confirms — with new details: Last year, Navy SEALs used two boats to escort Kash Patel and nine others on what a Pentagon email called a 'VIP Snorkel' next to one of the military's most sacred sites, the underwater tomb of the U.S.S. Arizona. One Navy vet called the swim "horrifying."

Off, pluck off

“.. Dalio said the US is losing credibility as a global power willing to fight to defend its interests while China accumulates wealth and influence, fundamentally reshaping how the rest of the world views the two nations.” @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

The primary reason that unqualified RFK Jr. appointees at HHS are being kicked to the curb is because of the polling showing that anti-vaccine views will put candidates down by at least 10 points.

The only Fox News you should be watching This little guy was on the hood of my car on a cold cold night just outside the park. He was framed in the lights behind so I had to. Disco Fox.

You can’t live in a data center. Just like you “can’t eat an iPad.”

NEW: Trump is going to give himself $1.7B from the treasury to pay his allies who were prosecuted under the Biden administration- including pardoned insurrectionists. This is a “settlement” deal in his $10B suit against the IRS. abcnews.com/US/trump-poi...

Watch: Trump is going to be just as loyal to Taiwan as he was to Ukraine. Donald swoons before ruthless authoritarian power.

A new, well-conducted study reveals that Conservatives “experienced worsening health and higher mortality than Liberals during the 2010s”. The authors concluded that this gap is going to get worse, and that public health officials and doctors will continue to struggle to reach conservatives.

If you start a sentence with “I know you hate AI, but you have to see this video,” do God a favor and get fucked.

It really says something about the morality, empathy, and compassion of the people in the United States that many appear far less troubled by Donald Trump raping someone else's children than by Donald Trump raising their gas prices.

President Obama: “We pulled it off without firing a missile. We got 97% of their enriched uranium out. There’s no dispute that it worked and we didn’t have to kill a whole bunch of people or shut down the Strait of Hormuz.”

Every damn one of you needs to follow @auschwitzmemorial.bsky.social People are already forgetting in the USA and doing the run up to the next mass murder. Learn history folks.

Phillips O’Brien explains Ukraine’s “Seven Million Drones” and why they matter--a lot. youtube.com/shorts/kIv7M...

So Iran has access to their missile sites and missiles while our American supply is dwindling and we refuse to embrace Ukraine and their drone technology while we continue to lose allies. Burning it all down because #TrumpIsWeak #TrumpLies #TrumpMeltdown #Kegseth

The fastest President to lose a war!

Hegseth’s accusation was supposed to make Mark Kelly look reckless. Instead, Hegseth exposed himself as trying to criminalize a senator for quoting him accurately. zurl.co/FmdR0 zurl.co/lq7Sg

If THIS administration says the war has cost $29B, you know it's way more than that.

Real wages are falling.

Trump posted about 60 times over a few hours last night. He has these mental breakdowns a couple times a month these days, but last night was especially delulu.

October 22

Quarantining for 6 weeks is hard AF, but just imagine the risk:benefit to all of society. The balance is in favor of quarantine for the folks coming off of that ship. That said, quarantine should come with supports for the entire family of those affected. It would go like this:

Who needs water anyway?

Democracies usually die when mainstream actors fail their gatekeeping function. To every editor, judge, university president, law firm partner, and elected official reading this: your job description just got more important. To everyone else: your job is to make sure they do.

Why did Trump pardon drug trafficker and Honduran president Juan Hernández? According to leaked audio tapes, it was an initial payment in part of a agreement between Trump, Bibi, and others to take down Mexican president Claudia Sheinbaum. english.elpais.com/internationa...

A normal person: “Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there!” Trump: 300+ words attacking Powell, economists, Democrats, and promoting himself. He can’t honor women for even one paragraph without making it about his enemies list.

Did Iran agree to that peace deal yet?

Someone needs to school the orange idiot and his drunk secdef about the Gulf of Tonkin 1964. “Love tap” my ass. These ignorant idiots are going to bring more death and a global recession.

Top 10 reasons why Democrats need to talk about climate change now: 🧵

Maybe he should inspect the Strait of Hormuz

“.. After the close Thurs, three firms announced huge headcount reductions, including: #$BILL (30%) #$NET (20%) #$UPWK (24%) “.. Block kicked things off earlier this year with a ~40% cut .. and a bunch of other firms .. #$COIN (~14%) #$META (~10%) #$ORCL (mid-teens) #$PINS (~15%) #$SNAP (~15%) ..”

These sick fuckers

Here's an idea Trump wants to add 1/2 trillion to the US defense budget Why not instead subtract 250 billion from the current defense budget and not suck $500 billion from social programs. Force these Goons to live within a budget like everyone else.

Parents listening to medical advice from a former heroin addict environmental lawyer who collects penises off roadkill instead of their child’s pediatrician shows how messed up things have gotten. www.propublica.org/article/more...
