CENTCOM says six U.S. service members have now been killed due to ongoing military operations related to Iran.
NYT says the damage to the hospital was likely from targeting "Network 2", a state-run news outlet.
What NYT DOESN'T say is that targeting civilians, even those who happen to work for state-run TV, is a war crime. I wonder why they didn't want to print that? One can only guess... π

Congress has appropriated the funds to NSF but OMB is delaying the release. When funds are released, NSF, which has lost almost 1/5 of its staff, will struggle to evaluate proposals. Since they have to award the funds, big projects with established PIs will benefit. This is how US science dies.

The richest man owns X.
The second and third richest men control Google.
The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.
And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.
See the problem here?
"I thought the joke was distasteful & unfortunate, & I think the way women are represented, it's a great teaching point to really shine light on how women should be championed for their amazing feats. Now I have to sit in front of you and explain someone else's behavior? It's not my responsibility."

Huh. Perusing the media landscape, I've noticed that the *women* hockey players are being asked questions about what the men did while most of the men have not had to answer a single fucking one about any of it.
So weird. Odd. Strange.

Trump celebrating the end of DEI is exactly what you think it is.
This is a speech for people who saw two lesbians holding hands at their local outdoor music festival, and felt weird.
βthe presidentβs speech is going to be over two hours long!β theyβre doing kalshi shit guys. theyβre leaking a bunch of stuff about a super long speech and heβll go about 2 minutes short of the supposed mark and everyone in the white house will make $200k on it

The US Justice Department withheld testimony that Donald Trump sexually abused a girl when she was 13 or 14 - according to a source who viewed unredacted Epstein files.
This is the worst scandal in US history and should be the biggest news story on the planet right now.
