I think the dromedary camels should be allowed some plumping to offset the two humps of the bacteria camels. As a treat.

As an IR professor, it's depressing that this is outperforming all others as the best theory of US foreign policy

We're going to do a Gallipoli aren't we?

Absolutely positive Madison Sheahan is the Noem protege who quit DHS to run for US Representative against Marcy Kaptur.

Fox & Friends co-host Brian Kilmeade tells oil tankers to go through the Strait of Hormuz: "Show some guts and go through that strait and and do it"

Simple as that! Brian Kilmeade tells oil tankers to go through the Strait of Hormuz: “Show some guts and go through that strait and and do it”

‘A very dangerous person’: alarm as Pete Hegseth revels in carnage of Iran war Critics say brash, bombastic Fox News host out of his depth to guide US military through murky new Middle East conflict

This is how you do it.

“With machismo, Christian nationalism and callousness toward the lives of US troops, they say, Hegseth’s puerile displays on TV are aimed at sating Trump’s desire for a warmonger worthy of the manosphere.”

I never owned a Walkman, so 19 for me.

The Post and Courier, which is leading the investigative work on the woman who accused Trump of sexually assaulting her when she was a child, looks into the woman’s FBI interview and substantiates many details through public records

Her trip to Ireland was ruined by this one question?? Gee, I wonder why…

Asked if the US attacked a desalination plant in Iran, Pres. Trump says Iranians are "among the most evil people ever on earth." "They cut babies' heads off—they chop women in half..." "I know nothing about a desalinization plant, other than to say, if they're complaining about a desalinization plant, we complain about the fact they shouldn't be chopping babies' heads off." Trump envoy Steve Witkoff and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth can be seen nodding in agreement.

A pretty clear demonstration here of how the lies told to sell the destruction of the Gaza Strip to the public helped to create the structure of impunity required to destroy as much as possible of other countries too

Periodic reminder: Binance reportedly helped $1.7B flow to Iran-linked entities.

When internal investigators flagged it, Binance fired them.

Balance is a major business partner of Trump’s.

Really worth watching this.
