So according to the WSJ a US Senator conspired with another country to manipulate the US into starting a war, am I getting this right

Make that $90. And how convenient for Russia...

Chat, is this bad?

Oil at $85+ now. Highest since April 2024.

Up ~27% since the Friday before the Iran stuff blew up...

Hope is not a good investment strategy though 🤝

Nah, hope's alright man...

Something tells me we aren't going to hear any contrition from anyone involved when they're asked about this. Horrifying.

Certainly will help with affordability

Highly respected? By who?

Are we sure this Iran attack isn't just a way for Donny to goose oil for his buddy Putin and his pals in the fossil fuel biz? Crude above $80 for the first time since early 2025...

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

A picture of PEW poll on global attitude survey, saying the % who rate the morality and ethics of people in their country as good vs bad, where the US has the worst rankings and Canada the best

Americans: we live in a fallen state—embroiled by sin, cheating, lying, and evil. You cannot trust anyone, not even those who claim to know you best

Canadians: I love my neighbors and my friends!

Excellent point from the comments section at FT.

Anthropic gets credit for putting some guardrails on their systems but I fear the oversight of what they actually WILL do is probably severely lacking.

Just read a story about this guy and calling him "embattled" is putting it mildly.... His staffer, who he sexually harassed, lit herself on fire...

Thoughts & prayers to the EPA :(

Check out the big brain on Brad!

(fully agree btw👇, but I never miss an opportunity to use that pulp fiction quote)

This is not the way to win hearts & minds.

If this is true I'm annoyed/upset... and how is Josh OK w/ this? #GoBills

Korean Stocks are still up 101% over the last 12mo.

Reading a story about the Kospi index over in South Korea and it just goes to show there's nothing new under the sun. Too much leverage and a stock market that was up 101% over the last 12mo. And that's *after* the 2-day crash.

We need to pass a House rule or law that requires them to work a certain number of days to get paid. Since Mike Johnson took over these people hardly ever work. When they finally come back after weeks off they work 2 days and he sends them home for 2 more weeks. It’s ridiculous.

I've been drifting,
For years at Sea.
But now, you've come along
to rescue me.
And the Fog is lifted,
We got the moon & the stars above.

Clearly, the secretary of WAR at the newly renamed Department of WAR would not start a war. Shocking that you would even suggest it.

This would be far more impressive if he wasn't retiring...

Ossoff: "The president owes Americans a real explanation. 2am posts on Truth Social just aren't good enough when you're sending Americans into combat. He was dancing at his beach club the same night he ordered air crews to launch into combat & hours before our service members endured missile salvos"

My Discover feed has been bad lately -- all doom & gloom non-stop (Maybe it's the things i've been liking/posting). The "Quiet Posters" tab is way more interesting.

I clearly need to do a better job curating but does the "I am not interested in this" button even work?
