The real ceasefire is the friends we made along the way 🙏

This pretty well sums it up

This Trump language to permanently end Iran as a civilization seems to be code words for the employment of nuclear weapons. Congress and the Supreme Court need to carefully watch this. We are standing on the edge of a cliff.

Liberals say it will be sad if our democracy ends in a fiery nuclear apocalypse. They're wrong—it will be sad if our republic ends in a fiery nuclear apocalypse.

So much for turning the Iranian population against their government.

Wow that was really well done

A thread of MAGA protesting with guns and not getting murdered for it... Arizona, November 2020

"This is my Rick Santelli moment, this guy. We need to track him down." @timmiller.bsky.social and @samsteindc.bsky.social on an everyday protestor in Minneapolis who gets itL

This needs to be played in front of #GestapoNoem during a hearing. #ICE is NOT being protested by organized groups, protests are full of people like @MNAngryman.bsky.social youtube.com/watch?v=d83v...

They’ll keep killing until we stop calling them killers? Tom, put down the glass and sober up.

US policy on how American citizens should respond to paramilitary groups in Venezuela somewhat different from US policy on how American citizens should respond to paramilitary groups in US www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

US policy on protests in Iran somewhat different from policy on protests in US: “On Friday, the US repeated that killing protesters would be met with a military response.” www.bbc.com/news/article...

I support the protesters who seek to end dictatorship in Iran. But I also support the president who seeks to start a dictatorship in the United States.

Opinion | As a moralizing Christian conservative, I believe the ICE agents were right to kill Renee Good for protesting. But I condemn their use of the F-word and the B-word in the aftermath.

“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”

Polls show that 70% of Americans oppose the war in Venezuela. But at this CBS News staff meeting, that number feels much smaller.

Varnish project begins…

We wear the crucifix to humbly affirm a core conviction: the righteousness of torturing the innocent. by Pam Bondi and Karoline Leavitt

Here we go again #reinvent2025

I’m so confused. Who is the “conservative” and who is the “communist”? Cutting red tape / regulation for small businesses and supporting services to support small businesses is pretty conservative (in the old school sense). I hope Mandami is able to get some of this in place.

Crisis of obesity among the face-eating leopards

My mistake has been trying to explain what "fascism" is to people who don't care what it is. So I'm going to try something else. Let's do this as a practical thought exercise. If America *were* fascist *today* - what would you have to do differently in your daily life? /1

Congrats to Blue Origin for a successful landing of the launch vehicle back on the barge. Was amazing to watch

Bernie’s democratic socialism is still compatible with liberal democracy. Trump’s national socialism is not. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Gov. Shapiro: “America has a president, a vice president, that don't give a damn about all Americans…When I see hungry people in my state who are hungry because of J.D. Vance's bullshit politics, that makes me angry…America deserves better than J.D. Vance.”

Explain to me again who is socialist?

Pope Leo is doing Catholicism the wrong way. by Ezra Klein

Andrew Cuomo can still be mayor, if Mike Pence has the courage.

A flash survey shows that fewer than 2% of New Yorkers will be flipping their vote to Cuomo following Donald Trump's last-minute endorsement. But at this Washington Post editorial board meeting, that number seems much higher.

WOOT

Andrew Cuomo to join Harvard’s Institute of Politics

LMAO

Ah geez hugops to the folks over at MS today. It's been a rough couple of weeks for everyone...

I’m so old I remember when the normal response of folks in the tech community after an incident was “don’t dunk on companies - it happens to everyone #hugops”. I liked those responses better than trolling and “hot takes”.
