Q: "People suspect that there's insider trading happening on these prediction markets around the war. Are you concerned?" Trump: "The whole world, unfortunately, has become somewhat of a casino."

Has anyone done a study of the percentage that these attempted and actual non-school mass shooters are former/current cops or soldiers? Seems like it would be at about 2/3 of the cases, but maybe I just notice it.

I don't know why that soldier would use classified information to make bets on prediction markets who does he think he is, a member of the trump family???

A US special forces soldier involved in the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro was arrested for allegedly betting on that operation, netting him $400,000 in profits, according to a person familiar with the matter. www.cnn.com/2026/04/23/p...

Listen up, California: Chad Bianco is not the candidate that you want for Governor. Here he is in uniform, sworn to uphold the law—endorsing a convicted felon for the highest office in the land. You can do better than him. #VoteBecerraforGovernor @XavierBecerra.bsky.social *sound*🔊

Newly released records on the police response to the assassination of Melissa Hortman show officers knew a woman was lying motionless on the top of the stairs inside the Hortman home but waited 30 minutes to physically check on her.

Ukraine gave up the world's third-largest nuclear arsenal for a promise. That promise wasn't broken. It was discarded. Prince Harry, Kyiv Security Forum: this war is deliberate policy from the top. It started with the Budapest Memorandum — and that betrayal echoes far beyond Ukraine.

It’s a neat trick that Trump and his henchmen are pulling with their mafia DOJ. File a bogus frivolous lawsuit that you can never possibly win in a court of law, then have Todd Blanche settle it by paying them millions and potentially billions in taxpayer money. Theft by lawsuit.

NYT: “During a trip to the bathroom, they ran into Mr. Trump’s new wife, whom they had met earlier. Ms Maples clasped her hands, Ms Coleman recalled, and looked her in the eye. ‘Whatever you do, do not let her around any of these men, and especially my husband,’ she told Ms Coleman. ‘Protect her.’”

Imagine the hysterical reaction from the right had Hunter Biden gone on TV and bragged about getting millions of dollars from his father's government for doing something he had no aptitude or experience for?

Q: What do you say to the American people who question how much longer this will take? Obviously you know they're having higher gas prices TRUMP: You're such a disgrace. Did you hear what I just said? How many years was Vietnam?

Exactly. Blanche is the one who cut a deal with Maxwell to waive her sex offender status. He got her “out custody” and moved her to club fed. He’s the Michael Cohen of the Epstein era.

Do you know how South Korea got rid of their dictator? EVRYONE STOPPED HOW DO ITALIANS GET THEIR GOVERNMENT TO LISTEN? EVERYONE STOPPED WORKING IN AMERICA WE ARE THE STUPIDEST BECAUSE THEY HAVE US FIGHTING EACH OTHER WE NEED TO WAKE UP ITS THE WORING CLASS AGAINST THE EPSTEIN CLASS

“I carry with me a photo of a Muslim child who, during the visit to Lebanon, was waiting there with a sign saying “Welcome Pope Leo.” He has been killed in this final phase of the war. There are many human situations, and I think we must be able to think in these terms.”

Iran renaming the Strait of Hormuz to the Strait of Persia? While charging tolls? And banning ships from Israel? Love this for Netanyahu and Trump. 🤣

Trump lives in a dangerous reality that is only in his mind. People have laughed about it for too long at this point. This is the psychopath that no one can contain - and he has total control over the nuclear weapons.

Russian Foreign Ministry has officially stated that Trump/USA has invited Putin to go to the G20 summit. The US is working overtime to rehabilitate the Russian dictator and European states need to take this into consideration. kyivindependent.com/russia-claim...

"As is so often the case with commentary about the emergency docket, the Court’s defenders make arguments that sound outwardly reasonable, but that depend entirely on cherry-picking their examples and ignoring the counterexamples." Me on the barrage of commentary attacking the Times' #SCOTUS scoop:

Schumer should file a criminal complaint against this frustrated serial killer

Months of deadlock broke open. The EU approved €90 billion for Ukraine and a 20th sanctions package on Russia on 23 April, after Hungary and Slovakia dropped their vetoes. The loan covers two-thirds of Ukraine's 2026–27 budget gap. First tranche lands May or June – weapons, budget, energy defense.

PIMCO’s pulled this trick three times in six months and honestly it rules, they’re cooking in Newport Beach.

Try this on for size: Putin = Hitler Netanyahu = Stalin Trvmp = Mussolini I think it's more than apt. The thing is, our current evil is dug in, unimaginably wealthy and has full-on contempt for the Great Unwashed.

I have had each of my friends listen to Keith Olbermann's description of what happened during Keith's 2 dates with Laura Ingraham. Honestly, in the last few years, nothing has hit harder Pick it up at 37:28 youtu.be/hPYVJZTNNNk?...

The GOP is on track to spend 2.5 billion on 2026 and y’all want Dem candidates to turn down money?! It’s just like when yall banned partisan gerrymandering in the Blue states while the GOP was gerrymandering the F out of every Red state. Heads, people!!!

This is The Washington Post using its opinion section to manufacture consent for U.S. intervention in Cuba. When every “opinion” piece points in the same direction, it stops being analysis and starts functioning as propaganda.

New in PN: "Now, as part of the project to undo Reconstruction, the DOJ hopes to take out the SPLC using the very tools it used to defeat the KKK. And along the way, they can exculpate every bigot who ever swung a tiki torch. *Those boys weren’t bad, they were just stirred up by outside agitators!*"

My god in heaven what a revelation. It's the first time IN MY LONG LIFE I've heard a Democrat the obvious: "WE HAVE A RIGHT TO DEFEND OURSELVES" To fight these putrid bullies, to call out their awful-ness? A revelation

The fact that Trump had appointed a totally unqualified donor to be Secretary of the Navy leading into what turned into the biggest crisis for the US Navy since World War 2 could be covered like the media covered Michael "Brownie" Brown during Hurricane Katrina. They choose not to do this!

Rep Raskin speaks pure poetry below. Read, and feel your heart soar

Not only is this deeply corrupt and stupid for any government official, it just shows how desperately thin-skinned these MAGA fuckwits are when they face even the slightest criticism.

I'll be proud to cast my vote for anybody who says "I'll never say 'I'm a Christian but.' I'm an American, and I respect the separation of church and state." Who decided this i'm a Christian but scheme was the way to go? I'm Hindu. Maybe I'm Muslim. Maybe I'm atheist How safe does James make me?
