Got these framed for the new office I’m putting together.

He’d fit in just fine in The Villages.

Shameful and morally repugnant. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/21/w...

Thus why it’s bad to let the dumbest people alive dictate the strategy.

With the help of the Sandy Hook families, The Onion has reached a long-awaited deal to take over InfoWars. We've enlisted the help of @timheidecker.bsky.social, who will be InfoWars' Creative Director. Please stand by for more.

Krupp and IG Farben would find this statement a bit unsubtle

To be fair, if you told me RFK Jr. did this, my first reaction probably wouldn’t be to doubt it.

Really enjoyed this one. @johnsipher.bsky.social and Jerry O'Shea know the spy world inside out. Their take on what Hollywood gets wrong about espionage, and why real stories are often better, out now on @secretsandspies.bsky.social. Links below.

Whom among us hasn’t gotten so shitfaced that FBI SWAT had to blow our door off its hinges the next morning?

No shit www.politico.com/news/2026/04...

This is what is known as billionaire math. They spend little, park a lot, and make more bag every day. If they can blow a mil on a direct donation to a political candidate or spend god knows what on PACs, they can afford a little more in taxes so we can repair the damage they cause. It’s only fair.

Several of these mine-hunters were already in Bahrain before being redeployed to the Pacific mere months before the war. We started this on just vibes and a prayer that a couple TLAMs would collapse the IRGC. www.twz.com/sea/flurry-o...

RIP Roberto Calvi. You would’ve loved shitcoins and rug pulls.

Vance on AF2 right now

More than anything, today’s result in Hungary is a reminder that much of the public discourse is wildly overstating the strength of authoritarianism (F-word) and the weakness of democracy.

Peter Thiel’s gonna lock him in the crate again.

Much shit-talking is warranted, @chriscarrfilm.bsky.social

Since we’ve stumbled backwards into a naval strategy and this is getting reskeeted, I want to clarify: 1) Best option was not to start the war in the first place; 2) this is the least bad option now: 3) it still might not work!

Sean Wiswesser draws on 30 years in US intelligence to unpack Russian tradecraft. From dead drops to online active measures, he reveals how Moscow’s spies operate and why old methods still endure. Links in comments below 👇👇👇

Apart from your leverage, you have no leverage.

Begun, the Grifter War has.

From “A shining city upon a hill” to “How many divisions has the pope?”

Back in town for a couple days. Doing some research and thinking for my novels. Lot of pieces clicking into place in my head.

It’s important to feel all the stages of grief—even denial.

I maintain that Pope Leo still has the power to do the funniest thing of all time.

Amtrak rides are quality time for disassociating.

There is a "cease-fire agreement" to the extent that the US and Iran have agreed to (mostly) cease fire, for two weeks. There is no agreement beyond that, and news reports should make that clear.

The terms as reported last night are terrible for our interests, as many pointed out, but the Israelis are clearly determined to keep this going. Doesn’t matter if you’re paying $8 a gallon or thousands of Iranians die for nothing. As long as Bibi can delay that trial a bit more. Best ally ever.

Bibi’s gotta keep chasing that dragon somehow.

Project Hail Mary was wonderful, by the way.

FWIW I was in a screening of Little Women when I found out Soleimani got killed.

Going in to see Project Hail Mary, and I guess I’ll find out if Tehran is glass or not when it’s over. Worst reality show ever.

How Trump Took the U.S. to War With Iran www.nytimes.com/2026/04/07/u...

Obv in people's interest to shift blame, but if true this has intel community (Ratcliffe, not Gabbard), the uniformed military leadership, the VP, the Sec State, and the Nat Sec Advisor, ALL (*) telling POTUS "Bibi is bullshitting you", and Trump goes with Bibi (*) Hegseth notably not mentioned

FWIW, I despise Vance as much as the rest of them, but he wouldn’t post shit like that…

I’m really, really fucking tired of waking up each morning and having the first thing I see being some new utterly deranged anime villain monologue from a nuclear-armed Home Alone 2 extra.

To spell this out further: the issue here is that, when he backs down, it’s often because popular opinion is loud and angry enough. In other words, people who say “you fool, you thought he would do it” are getting cause and effect backwards.

This is going around from a planespotter in UK ~40 minutes ago. Just to pre-bunk some things: - The cruise missiles on the pylons are JASSMs (conventional-only), not AGM-86 (nuclear-only). - AGM-86 is a good deal longer (thus not two rows in line), and different livery <more>

there are many horrors contained in the Trump admin's war in Iran. but one of the lesser ones is the way he has turned us into the audience for his reality TV show. will he or won't he? tune in at 7! grotesque voyeurism that implicates us all.

This tweet will be used against him one day at The Hague.

This image would simply not exist if Putin had succeeded in his military ambitions in Syria and Ukraine. This is a moment that only exists in spite of him and in defiance of him, regardless of how conciliatory Damascus has been towards Moscow since December 8th 2024.

With the desert air strip used in the rescue being this close to Isfahan, seems likely JSOC repurposed the one they’d been planning on using for the highly enriched uranium raid if ordered. Safe to say these events drastically decrease the odds of the JSOC HEU mission taking place.

Whether it happens 6 hours from now, 6 days from now, 6 weeks from now, 6 months from now, or 6 years from now, it will be one of the largest worldwide celebrations in the history of the human race.

Wheels up all friendlies out. C130 got a wheel stuck in the sand at the FARP and a Delta element had to come in and blow it in place. Whole op sounds dicey as hell but they pulled it off.

Makes you picture what we could still do if we got our fucking shit together for once.

F-15 WSO recovered alive. Was escaping and evading. Massive fire fight on tgt. Iranians were actively looking for him in the area.

Great interview with @bluelouva.bsky.social here. Glad Chris was able to welcome him on the show. Do check it out!

“They were going to come. It was going to be a big thing. We were going to go to the beach right after. All those plans had to go out the window because they said ICE would be here."

A-10 down too, unclear yet why or whether it crashed in Iran or a neighboring country or was involved in the CSAR effort for the F-15E (supporting CSAR is a classic A-10 mission): www.nytimes.com/live/2026/04...
