Again, I will be very angry if it takes this for it to matter, but Abulhawa is a fairly outspoken TERF too

All this was a choice. I can’t get over how all of this was a choice. A plurality of American voters saw corruption, bigotry, pandemic, economic crisis, coup attempt, and criminal conviction, then opted for more.

If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.

Just going to be clear: THIS is the person that the part of the left angry at Mamdani right now is insisting isn't an antisemite If you're supporting Susan Abulhawa, just block me, please. You shouldn't be anywhere near a Jew's timeline

Shout out to all the PSUV gusanos who pretended to be leftists for like 16 years just to sell out the homeland like this. Well played.

At least he’s not promising to cripple the government by destroying the tax base?

I mean that hasn't stopped people from saying Graham Platner is the great left wing hope

a unified theory of Donald Trump’s actions

Many Washington Post readers have been notified via email that their subscription rates are set to increase. Nestled at the bottom of these emails, you’ll find an asterisk and the following: “This price was set by an algorithm using your personal data.”

Re the Hormuz, not saying I'm an expert on the sitch, but are we really too proud to try historically vetted measures like sacrificing a high ranking member of the royal family to propitiate the sea god

this is extreme but imo any dem elected who advocates for no taxes on tips/cutting all taxes for individuals under $100k or w/enshould be primaried and removed from political life I’m sorry to channel Macintyre but this is not a recipe to build a functioning society. treats are not a telos

I am trying to think of any security assurances anyone could offer Iran as part of a negotiated cease fire, and I can't think of anything except the GCC+Iraq canceling US basing rights and closing the gulf to foreign warships.

they absolutely do have control over the situation Trump can stop bombing them today (he absolutely should) but the world economy is fucked unless Iran decides to open the strait and there isn’t really anything anyone can do about it

I don’t think this shit will work but i never want to hear about free speech from any trumpers or anti anti trumpers ever again, fuck off forever bsky.app/profile/cram...

In the 19th and early 20th century, a Great Power that so badly disrupted the world economy / balance of power and/or been humiliated would have been forced into a conference where a humiliating agreement would have been forced on them - while the other powers guaranteed a peace through force

This is officially the war of Leroy Jenkins now

It’s crystal clear now that Trump has lost control of this war. He badly misjudged Iran’s ability to retaliate. The region is on fire. 1/ I’m going to explain to you in this🧵what I’ve learned - in part from closed door briefings - about the four biggest current crises.

I will forever despise the American voter for putting these chucklefucks back in office

2006 slop. No one cares if you were in the Army or Marines. You need to be able to use complete sentences, not be a crypto shill, not sign on to the latest "tax break" mania gripping the party, you should despise liars and cheats, and you shouldn't care about attending the right cocktail parties.

I usually don’t like to brag about my expensive trips, but I just returned from a gas station ⛽️ Thank you, 🇺🇸

The emerging cases of AI psychosis have shown that all it takes to drive some people completely insane is to put them in contact with a sycophantic chatbot who always agrees with them. Now, what does that tell us about billionaire CEOs surrounded by sycophantic people who always agree with them?

lol, wars going well eh?

Oil markets are going to be fucked well into next year. We’re at something like a 15 day gap now in supply moving out.

he didn't create paypal, he didn't found tesla and he was never developing the hyperloop elon has plainly been full of shit for 20 years now. but yes, a lot of people - especially in the tech press - just didn't figure it out until he became a nazi drug addict publicly like 8 years ago

The CPC will champion Don Cherry until they poll 20%. Then they will tell you, "Quebec doesn't matter. The polls are fake. Youth love Pierre!" Then they will beg for money. The CPC is not interested in forming government. They are a fundraising scheme disguised as a political party.

"I ASSUMED the US Military had an active plan to open the Strait." How can people who are paid to understand geopolitics be so bafflingly naive?

Folks, president pedophile is touching the inflation numbers

The problem with the president of the United States breaking multiple treaties, including his own, repeatedly lying to just about every country on Earth, and holding peace talks as a perfidious ruse to murder other heads of state, means any promises he makes, oral or written, are worthless.

Where is that fell for it again award?

NEW: Alberta government’s power policies have battered existing renewable projects, and a major company now speaking out. ATCO blames province for $408M writedown to wind & solar, suggests it may pursue in court: www.cbc.ca/news/canada/... by me

New from me: Year One of Carney. He offered himself up as useful in a crisis, but he’s also spent the past year doing something no other PM has ever done: learn politics in real time, in front of us all. #cdnpoli www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/opi...

Trump enacting treatlerite genocide as part of his Great Leap Forward 🫡

the term “military excursion” is a pejorative term to describe military adventurism gone awry, needlessly draining blood and treasure so in that sense yes, Donald trump accidentally is describing his policies and actions accurately

“We have literally no precedent for what kind of price increase would be required to reduce demand by enough to offset the current shock to supply.” Some clear thinking here from Matt Klein: open.substack.com/pub/matthewc...

Spent most of my career talking down the endless stream of unjustified oil market alarm. Now I’m acutely alarmed to the point of disbelief, the oil market is still shockingly sanguine, and I feel like this guy.

Rory Johnston talks about an air gap in oil production. But the consequences of no one making clothing in bangladesh for like a month are quite dire

i was thinking to myself this morning how this admin was going to rediscover their own version of illegal Cambodian bombing campaign from first principles just as it did with its own Vietnam and would you not believe it but

Entire towns ceased to exist in Germany.

"Every country with a large Shia population explodes" was also foreseeable.

oh so the shit in iraq is like bad bad

Judge Barbra Streisand presiding.

The big risk here in terms of "millions of casualties" is us hitting the water infrastructure, and I'd put that at 50%

Maybe the strategic goal is self-humiliation

>I leave radio club >the US is bombing Kharg WTI $120 at open

This is a good lesson for journalists: Use plain language to state true things clearly.

If he actually hit the Iranian facilities, it’s a lolcow moment for oil futures

No Ossoff, Warnock, or Gallego.

Straight out of Crimea 2022 shit
