The video of a United States Senator joining the violent removal of U.S. marine from a hearing and hideously breaking his arm in a door is an example of what has been unleashed in this country. They’re tapping in to get in on the violence.
And then he bragged about it on X later.
There are often challenges with competence in Republican administrations.
Please let me give you an example. This is sick, AF.

Working on a q&a lecture for a class today: The story of robots is always a story about slavery. The story of LLMs labeled as AI is a story about class, and which humans pay the cost, including the physical toll on their bodies/minds, and the lack of water and electricity, so data centers can exist.

Quietly, calmly and forensically, BBC just dismantled the Trump communications shitshow on Iran.
No hyperbole, just laying out an unprecedented military, diplomatic and reputational shambles.
Worth a watch.

A lot of people say AI isn't very good for the world and its outputs are routinely unreliable, but these haters fail to see how it's revolutionizing how we incinerate schoolchildren.

the thing that the Democratic base cannot abide above all else right now is Handing It To Them
and being anti-trans is, in fact, Handing It To Them
don't do that, it's bad morals and bad politics

Republican Senators Ted Cruz and Tim Scott want to enact a $200 billion tax cut on capital gains without congressional approval, claiming it will help “everyday Americans.”
Baloney. This overwhelmingly benefits the richest Americans — just like their big, ugly bill did.
🚨 RSL head coach Pablo Mastroeni confirms post-training that U-22 striker Ari Piol has ruptured his Achilles against Seattle (after scoring a goal earlier in the match) and is going under the knife today.
“Gutted for him.” 💔 #RSL
Ugh. That is what I feared and I feel awful for Piol. He was showing improvement from last year too to build on.

Huge congratulations to a keeper I highly rate.
Big move, but to a club where he shouldn’t have to share minutes- massive for his development.
First win last night (3–1) with 5 saves 🧤📈

A black & white World War II era political cartoon by Dr. Seuss: A banner that says, "The Great U.S. Side Show" Two men standing on a stage. One has "America First" written across his coat. The other has a big swastika on his vest. They both have long white beards which are attached to each other in the middle. Below is a carnival barker (who kind of looks like Uncle Sam). He is using a cane to point to the men on stage & he is using a bullhorn to talk to a crowd that's gathered around. The text says: "And on this platform, folks, those most perplexing people... the Lads with the Siamese Beard! Unrelated by blood, they are joined in a manner that mystifies the mightiest minds of the land!"

I don't know who needs to hear this, but South Koreans took 6 hours to stop their insurrection, 10 days to impeach the president behind it, and just 6 weeks to convict him. He was sentenced to life in prison 2 weeks ago. Their country's stock market shot up 10%.
Exactly 💯

Screenshot of the statement explaining that The U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem issued a security alert Tuesday for any Americans trying to depart Israel as the war with Iran unfolds, saying the embassy is “not in a position at this time to evacuate or directly assist” anyone trying to leave. The embassy shared information about shuttles taking people to the Taba Border Crossing, but noted that the information was just a courtesy, and that “if you choose to avail yourself of this option to depart, the U.S. government cannot guarantee your safety.”
The insane hypocrisy and gall for this to be said and done by the people (GOP) who have spent decades screaming hysterically at the top of their lungs that democrats are responsible for any bad thing that happened to an American abroad.

Meiselas: Trump is a parody in the most extreme sense of the boogeymen MAGA created to go after Dems. He’s quite literally all of it. He covers up the pedo ring. He starts wars everywhere. He uses government to tread on people.
He's the most extreme example of what they claimed they wanted to stop.
as always "how would the court rule on this case to maximally advance Republican interests" is a better barometer for SCOTUS' actions than "how should the law be reasonably applied based on past precedent"

That tells you everything you need to know"

Screenshot of an X post by Acyn quoting a CNN exchange. The text includes Blitzer asking about U.S. military losses if the war drags on, and Mullin responding that it is not a war and that the U.S. has not declared war on Iran. Below is a CNN split-screen showing Wolf Blitzer on the left and Senator Markwayne Mullin on the right, with a “BREAKING NEWS” banner reading: “W: TRUMP SAYS NEW IRANIAN LEADERS ‘WANT TO TALK.’”
This is absurd. If another country hit our top civilian and military leaders and wiped them out, then bombed 1,000 targets and threatened five more weeks of bombings, we'd say it was war. Get real or get out of here with this.
