I hope Venezuela or Cuba wins the #WorldBaseballClassic because MAGA sucks

In 2017, a mandatory review request by the @nsarchive.bsky.social forced the CIA to release previously redacted portions of an internal history on the overthrow of Iranian Prime Minister Mohammad Mossadeq in 1953. nsarchive.gwu.edu/briefing-boo...

I really hope Spain win the World Cup. That would piss Trump off nicely.

Also a dishonorable mention to everyone that plays for the Israeli WBC team that should have been banned from the tournament

We no longer like to think about bureaucracy, yet it informs every aspect of out existence. It's as if as a planetary civilization, we have decided to clap out hands over our ears and start humming whenever the topic comes up.

Israel's last regime change war backfired. This one could too For the first time since 1956, Israel is openly fighting alongside a Western imperial power in a war whose political repercussions are far from certain.

Remember when we were told that the fact that Fred Trump was a member of the KKK had nothing to do with Donald Trump and it didn’t mean Donald was a racist?

‘Good riddance’: Trump fires Kristi Noem from DHS, names ‘MAGA warrior’ as replacement “Trump’s violent, cruel deportation agenda didn’t begin with Kristi Noem, and it won’t end with her firing,” said Rep. Summer Lee, who called for dismantling DHS and prosecuting everyone “violating ou...

“Trump’s violent, cruel deportation agenda didn’t begin with Kristi Noem, and it won’t end with her firing,” said Rep. Summer Lee, who called for dismantling DHS and prosecuting everyone “violating our rights.”

Kritsti Noem lost her job because she’s too embarrassing for even the Trump administration

lol, as if Markwayne Mullin is gonna do any better at not making Americans hate the director of DHS

Israel should have been banned from the World Baseball Classic but watching them get eliminated in the first round works too

The WBC is awesome but it would be even better if MLB would get the insurance nonsense figured out so that Puerto Rico isnt unfairly treated again.

I don’t understand why letting Bad Bunny guarantee Lindor and Alvarez’s contracts when the insurance failed to do so was an issue for MLB.

An influential organization in Hollywood is trying to smear ’The Voice of Hind Rajab’ ahead of the Oscars.

@premthakker.bsky.social explains the effort to stop the film from winning Best International Feature Film & how the group has ties to the Israeli government.

You know Karoline Leavitt is lying when she’s at a podium and her lips are moving…

So ridiculous. They want to lock up a 94 year old man.

Those flights violated Cuban airspace, they were within their rights to shoot those gusanos down.

Trump: "We broke 50,000 on the Dow"


(the Dow has lost more than 1,000 points since then)

We need to un-invent AI, like just dismantle every AI center and let the knowledge of how to create AI just get lost to time.

Fuck SkyNet

What a total crock. These plutocrats actually think we’re as stupid as they are.

The NYPD and the DA are SO ridiculous.

Sean O’Brien sold workers and unions out to Trump—these Teamsters are running to oust him. “As a labor leader, [O’Brien] should be disqualified…. Donald Trump has done nothing to help the working class, only the people in the Epstein class.”

Well I was hoping the Mets would get Skenes when he becomes a free agent but now not so much…

#NoWarWithIran

PUYO, ECUADOR — Rosa Elvira Chuji Gualingai, 50, came to the city to pressure the government. Watching the traffic outside her office window, she says, ​“I can’t get used to this lifestyle.” The indigenous activist, leader of the Shiwiar community of Kurintsa, was raised deep in the Amazon rainforest, surrounded by towering ceibo and palm trees. With no roads, the only way to travel is up to six days by boat or to charter a plane. With little electricity and no plumbing, the Shiwiar bathe in the nearby rivers and live mainly by hunting and fishing. But this way of life is under threat, as the Ecuadorian government sells rainforest land to oil companies.

Why is Trump attacking Ecuador?

Same reason he’s in Iran + Venezuela: oil “secured” by force, sold as fighting a “dictatorship” and/or “drugs.”

Ecuador’s Indigenous organizers forced a pullback in drilling in 2019. Now they face the US military.
