Gotta prosecute everyone in the chain of command. Sucks if you’re the O3 pilot , but you were trained in the LOAC and know who lawful combatants are and aren’t. No sympathy for the everyone above that.

I didnt realize this was about Covid while reading it the first time, I thought it was about the ICE assault on Minneapolis this winter. Thanks for sharing it with us.

interesting that conservatives were militantly “we must reward hustle” when the target was affirmative action at elite universities and now, when faced with the success of south asians and other groups, it is “i think we are too meritocratic”

This admin has consistently broken the law in a way that cuts to the core principles in the constitution, and so far congress has just sat back and watched. Hopefully this is a step in the right direction.

NASA released a bunch of 16 and 35mm film engineering footage of the Artemis II launch today. Naturally I knew what I had to do with it.

I’m so old I remember when conservatives were indeed quite vocal about saying children should not have babies.

A remarkable essay. www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

Not that anything matters anymore, but Oman hosts U.S. forces including USAF air wings alongside allowing us access to naval support facilities at Duqm. Great coalition building Mr. President! Very reassuring to our security partners!

these guys need to go to jail for this, theres no coming back from this without it

I hope the next admin is ready to hire an army of attorneys to prosecute corruption. Taking bribes, steering govt contracts to yourself or your buddies, all of it.

This was *by far* the craziest story to come out of election night. youtube.com/shorts/J2H1w...

DSA-aligned Democrats are now the most pro-free-trade voting bloc in the United States, in an incredible turn of events www.theargumentmag.com/p/who-suppor...

Man discovers the Czech Mliko pour.

This got me to finally read the entire New Yorker article on the Tates and... yeah. I don't see how what they're doing is any different than what everyone has accused Jeffrey Epstein of doing. Except they're *more public* about admitting to what they're doing AND getting young men to join in.

This is insane and should not be hand waved away as normal. There would be wall to wall coverage if a Dem withheld disaster funds to Alabama.

Scalded her with boiling water Put a gun to her head Punched her in her face Broke your grand daughters collarbone And Bennie Moreno ain’t beat his ass yet???? Every time i see you in DC it’s on sight

Really though, that movie is fantastic. I watched it based on @swiftonsecurity.com ‘s recommendation. Similarly I say, go in cold without looking it up first.

Egypt absolutely robbed by that VAR decision. Unbelievable.

I’ve been thinking about the America I’m proud of and that I want to celebrate tomorrow, and it’s things like hip-hop and blue jeans and sending a man to the moon and this.

this video from the bbc about texas bbq is frying me

Insurance, how does it work?

The facts of this case are bad. County wrongly claimed family owed $2,000 in taxes, foreclosed on the home, and sold a house it assessed at $190K for just $76K and tried (unsuccessfully) to keep all $76K. Screwed a family out of tens of thousands to collect $2,000 that they didn't actually owe.

Amazing match from DRC there, just incredible for them to hang on for a 1-1 draw with Portugal.

Folarin Balogun, born in New York to Nigerian parents. People like JD Vance would say he's not *really* American when, in fact, he's the epitome of American. 🇺🇸

Canadian fans just LOUDLY booed America at the opening cermony of the world cup game today. 👀

North American Schengen region, we should absolutely make this happen! Pitch it as a huge money saver by reducing regulations and costly border enforcement and creating more freedom for Americans.

Wow. We’ve come a long way from the ai being unable to figure out how many R’s are in strawberry.

🤔

This is textbook racism. As in, this is an example that an elementary teacher might use to explain racism to a child: "If someone says all members of a particular race are stupid, that's racism, kids." Any news outlets that uses any word for this except racism is not reporting the truth.

The criminal justice system doesn’t just demean defendants, it degrades and lowers its participants.

Kavanaugh, 7 weeks before an election, when a lower court prevents Alabama GOP from discriminating against Black voters: 😠 🛑 STOP Kavanaugh, during an election, when the Supreme Court empowers Alabama GOP to discriminate against Black voters: 🥳 🍻 LET'S GO ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

“My ‘this is not a golden calf’ statement has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my statement.”

The economics are brutal. Anywhere that a litre of diesel costs more than 10 kilowatt-hours of electricity, an EV truck pays for itself in 12-14 months. After that, it will be more profitable than diesel every single month: www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

What do conservatives always say when liberals criticize a Supreme Court decision? "Get Congress to pass a law," right? That is EXACTLY what happened here. In 1982, Congress explicitly overruled a Court case that narrowly interpreted the VRA. Today, Sam Alito said, nope, we were right all along.

The people have spoken and we demand the ability to hedge our exposure to onion prices. Repeal the Onion Futures Act!

Neither of those calculations is correct. (It's a 500% increase and an 83.3% decrease.)

If Republicans have had a belated realization that gerrymandering is bad, they should work with Dems to ban it entirely. I suspect though that they think it’s just bad when it happens to them. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Uhhh... were they doing a lot of business in Tehran or something???

The implicit media consensus is that urban voters should not be able to overrule rural voters, but that rural voters should be able to overrule urban voters, an assumption so axiomatic and unquestionable that nobody even understands they're making it.

This is a well written piece on how NYC's new tax on wealthy non-resident property owners is good tax policy and good politics. open.substack.com/pub/betterci...

Oil just dropped 11% on news the Strait of Hormuz is “open.” But “open” doesn’t mean normal. Right now, 800+ tankers are stuck in the Gulf. The strait is effectively a 3-lane highway merging into 1. ~400 loaded ships trying to exit. ~100 empty ships willing to enter. 3 years until normal.

These people responsible should never live this down. Also, prosecutions for those who broke the law.
