The breathtaking stupidity of saying "we destroyed their nuclear capabilities" a few months ago only to pivot to "they were two days from having THE BOMB" is absolutely stunning. They are the Miles Davis of stupid, forever capable of stripping stupid down to its roots and reinventing it.

This is the funniest list someone has added me to

It is wild to me that DOGE/Musk could dismantle so much of the government in just a few months from a combination of anti-regulatory personal greed and fascism-tinged stupidity and no one will ever face any consequence for it.

Crockett concedes: “This morning I called James and congratulated him on becoming the Senate nominee. Texas is primed to turn blue and we must remain united because this is bigger than any one person.”

What on earth

The fuck did I just watch?!

Hey, that's not fair. There are also people with inside information manipulating the betting pools to take the addicts' money.

This is a good piece, but I am struck by how he explains that Trump's brazenness has taken every 'congress must authorize' and turned it into 'congress needs a super-majority to stop.'

And I think the solution, to be frank, is in 2029 to put administration officials on trial for their illegality.

Steve King 9 @SteveKinglA + Follow Wilders understands that culture and demographics are our destiny. We can't restore our civilization with somebody else's babies.

I'm teaching about early 20th century eugenics today and was reminded that 9 years ago Republican Representative Steve King was stripped of his committee assignments by his GOP colleagues for this post that simply states what is now bog standard GOP policy/rhetoric on immigration and "civilization."

A Running Count of How Many People ICE Has Killed and Injured - The American Prospect ICE is not required to report any use-of-force incidents against the public. So The American Prospect created our own running tally.

We updated our record of people immigration agents have killed or caused to die since Trump took office in January 2025.

As of today, agents have killed at least 28 people in the field and 48 people in custody.

We'd be in a better place right now if Congress had impeached Reagan, GHW Bush, and various Cabinet members over Iran Contra

LOL
LMAO, even

what the fuck is going on

No spoilers, but the final scene of #Shrinking s3e6 has me feeling anxious

Completely depraved

I know that the people who need to read this aren’t here, but here goes:

Rules of engagement aren’t for the enemy. They’re for you. They’re for your soldiers when they’re captured or wounded. They’re for your civilians when they’re in range of the enemy. They’re for your allies, to reassure.

Absolutely ridiculous that Republicans (minus Paul, plus Fetterman) all lined up to defend Trump's ability to do an end-run around Congress and just start a war unilaterally. Cowards.

"[The Congress shall have Power ...] To declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water"

Apparently nowadays we only have two branches of government.

Both of my grandfathers served in WW2 before other careers really started.

One became a lawyer, did stints at the IRS and FBI, then ran an insurance agency.

The other became a butcher with a sideline of being a firefighter, before eventually owning his own deli/catering operation

If Stoutland were still the O-line coach, the Eagles bringing Becton back on a cheap one year deal would be plenty intriguing. He had a very good 2024 for the Birds, and the Eagles need depth at both guard and tackle

Seems like you're leaving out something important, Mike...

Wondering if the fancy bedroom on the tricked-out 737 Noem bought for DHS for "deportation flights" has a cuckold chair

Kristi Noem Misled Congress About Top Aide’s Role in DHS Contracts Testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee, Noem denied that Corey Lewandowski had any role in approving contracts. But internal DHS records and interviews with current and former agency staffer...

Asked by Congress whether Corey Lewandowski has “a role in approving contracts” at DHS, Sec. Kristi Noem said: “No.”

Internal DHS records reviewed by @propublica.org show Lewandowski personally approved a multimillion-dollar equipment contract last summer.

Trending topics on Bluesky, apparently. Amused by how "Horror Writing" could include writing about any of the other four topics 😎

Trump has never taken responsibility for anything in his life. Why would he start now?

He's too distracted by his and his son's pr0n-tracker app

Arguably nothing is more important than Congress weighing in on whether the US should be at war
