There's a larger point to be made about how these guys aren't building durable authoritarianism, but watching this video all I could think is "I can't wait to see these guys go to jail"

BREAKING: Pope Leo XIV is set to effectively disband Opus Dei in the coming weeks. This would be the most sweeping internal reform of his pontificate — and a dramatic continuation of Pope Francis’s legacy.

My favorite part is Cuomo saying “yeah.” Like he got burned so bad he agrees 🤣

Learned that an anonymous outside expert on submersibles did an interview with the OceanGate Titan investigation, and they released a transcript, with all the names redacted. The first line of his first answer? "I'm sure you're familiar with my film Titanic."

Wait, WHO did the wrap?!?!?

I've meaning to transfer my playlists off of Spotify for a while, and the ICE ads finally gave me the nudge I needed.

Nobody can know everything, let alone everything by their own research. We always rely on experts to navigate our complex world. The question is whether we pick credentialed and experienced people or internet demagogues and grifters.

Listen to the response to this and look how easy it is to say it.

To overhaul its football program, Oklahoma didn’t look to other college greats. It looked to the teams playing on Sundays.
