Holy fucking shit it's real lol Olivia Reingold of the Free Press asks Abdul El-Sayed "does Israel have a right to exist as a Jewish state?" AES: "What do you mean by a Jewish state?" [...] "If you can't define the question, I'm not gonna answer it.

This WSJ headline, “Gulf States Fear an Emboldened Iran after Trump’s Ceasefire,” doesn’t seem quite to accord with Trump’s claim of “a total and complete victory.” www.wsj.com/world/middle...

Pete Hegseth has "Deus Vult" God wills it tattooed on his arm. It was the battle cry of the Crusades. He is directing a bombing campaign against a Shiite Muslim nation while comparing a military rescue to the Resurrection of Christ. The Pope called this a distortion of Christianity. He is correct.

If only a dozen Republicans in Congress found the will, they could impeach and remove him today.

“It’s difficult to cover him in a way that conveys how unhinged he is. Journalists are trained to be like, ‘OK, what did he say that was newsworthy?’ So you convey that to your audience. But in reality, when you actually watch, you see he's full of hatred, lying constantly, and very incoherent.”

Bloomberg reports California has surpassed Japan to become the world’s fourth-largest economy. With about 39 million people, the state’s GDP now exceeds that of Japan, which has a population of roughly 123 million, marking a major global economic shift

As a journalist, I find the mere fact that this insipid event is happening this year to be several steps beyond disqualifying. You’re watchdogs, not lapdogs. Have some damn integrity.

Not the first to make this observation, but Mamdani's political superpower basically seems to be that he is happy and enjoys life.

I just don’t think you need to love war crimes to be a real man.

Of Trump's wildly incompetent and corrupt Cabinet, Donald has only fired two people: Kristi Noem and Pam Bondi. Both women. Just a coincidence, I'm sure. I mean, Pete Hegseth may be the worst Secretary of Defense in history, but at least he has a penis.

Oh this is a quote that will never come back to haunt him.

After the White House complained about an unflattering photo of Karoline Leavitt, it was removed from AFP and Getty’s systems. This is the photo in question. Please do not repost it. 👇

There's a big Hasan Piker discourse going on over on the other site. So in honor of that, I will repost my favorite Hasan video in history. Featuring: "Fuck you old lady. Shut the fuck up you stupid fucking idiotic old lady." "Suck my dick old lady." "God damn dude. Yo, fuck this refugee!"

Hegseth's claim that God wants us to bomb people bears a resemblance to the antebellum South's claim that God wanted them to enslave people. Terrible people use religion to defend evil. As Greg points out in his fine essay, there are more legitimate moral positions that Hegseth chooses to ignore.

“The number of immigrants in ICE custody has nearly doubled in the last 14 months,“ and the country’s largest immigration facilities are described as “places where disease and illness are rampant and detainees are often denied sufficient food, clean drinking water, medications & medical care.”

Please stop spreading this rage bait. The quote everyone's angry about, about "crappy identity politics," is not from Weir.

I'm sorry if you're getting sick of the vole photos. There's going to be a few more. I spent a half an hour on the floor of the deck with my back up against the wall and my good camera perched on my knee so I could get some close-ups of my little friends. It was worth the pins and needles #mammals 🌿

This really proves this was a coordinated plan by Republicans to create an airport crisis by jamming TSA agents while cynically claiming in their messaging campaign that Dems were to blame. Republicans used airports as their negotiating leverage.

1/ It's not just that unilaterally paying TSA agents is illegal. It's that Trump has now repeatedly undermined the core of the congressional power of the purse. He's not spending money that has been appropriated by law (impoundments) and he's spending money that has not been appropriated.
