I wasn't planning to get too happy. Trump's party has a deep bench of corrupt, sleazy, stupid weirdos, like...this guy. www.nbcnews.com/now/video/wh...

Not that it matters. Rubio is supposed to be the Rex Tillerson (lol) or John Kelly (barf) of this clown show, and he's a gaslighting neocon lunatic who is extremely condescending and filibusters when he is called out for trying to gaslight reporters.

Trump didn't fire her because she did a bad job at being a Nazi. He fired her because she committed the worst possible crime one can commit in Trumpistan:

she caused bad press for Trump.

Miller controls the dotard. He’s just an imbecilic puppet of Miller, Kushner, Netanyahu and Putin.

I don't know why Dems don't use the same game plan on Miller they used on Steve Bannon. Just keep saying how Miller is running the presidency & not Trump. Trump can't handle that & will fire Miller like he did Bannon.

If he shared the values of most Americans, he would fire Stephen Miller.

Good news that the execrable Kristi Noem has been fired, but Trump should really be firing Stephen Miller, the primary engineer of the vile ethnic reengineering agenda and murderously violent civic tensions that are sucking all of them into a bottomless political sinkhole, Trump included.

The Texas Senate primary is a battle for the Democratic Party's soul. James Talarico is a "choir boy." Jasmine Crockett is a "street fighter." Their race will set the tone for the midterms clash to come.

After reading Tim Murphy's excellent @motherjones.com profile, I'm super interested to see the outcome of today's Talarico vs Crockett Senate primary in Texas. Very different, and both intriguing, candidatesβ€”and very high stakes.

No, it's them.

You Break It, You Own It? Not for Trump When It Comes to Iran.

The president who was so afraid of going to Vietnam he got his rich daddy to intervene wants everyday Iranians to somehow rise up and overthrow the people with all the weapons. But that's not how the real world works.

The Frog of War When biologist Tyrone Hayes discovered that a top-selling herbicide messes with sex hormones, its manufacturer went into battle mode. Thus began one of the weirdest feuds in the history of science.

The Frog of War, by Dashka Slater. Totally weird and worth reading.

A new California bill aims to ban paraquat. Yep, that toxic stuff is still around. Banned by 60 countries, the herbicide behind a 1970s marijuana scare persists in the US.

Syngenta just announced it's gonna stop producing paraquat, which I thought was a throwback to '70s Mexican weed before learning that US growers still use it. Syngenta, btw, was the subject of a wild story with one of my favorite headlines. See addendum to this post.

For most people, stable employment is disappearing and being replaced by precarious, low-paid work. Stability is a thing of the past now. Over 2 billion workers worldwide have no job security or benefits.

😁 Former Russian Deputy Defense Minister Tsalikov, Shoigu's right-hand man, was found to have hundreds of millions in real estate.

He is accused of creating a criminal organization, embezzling budget funds, and accepting bribes.

Even more surprising is that all of this came to light after 2024.

I am truly honored to receive the Hilde Mangold Award from @gfeev.bsky.social!

Mangold’s classic transplantation experiments transformed developmental biology and our understanding of self-organization. I am grateful to be associated with this legacy!

Kristi should take some comfort that she didn’t end up like her poor dog for being crazy and out of control.

Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone.

But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.
