Except, it didn't work? Because they converted. Because the RB had all day to get open.

You rushed 2 on 4th and 3?

Fire Zach Orr right now

Don't tempt me with a good time

General strike.

ATC threatening to walk off ended the last shutdown stalemate, it can and should end this one.

X is a propaganda machine.

Clinging to her own shit legacy like a toddler clinging to a security blanket.

Her and Obama both.

Bringing a Survey to a Gun Fight “Pollingism” Has Failed Democrats and Voters. Here’s Why, and What to Do Instead.

Here it is, my answer for every time I get asked "why don't (most) Dems just...[message better, be bolder, sound authentic...etc]"

Prices... And unemployment. And the collapse of the US tourism and hospitality industry. And the loss of at least one kind of federal assistance for a quarter of the US population.

If you say Dems should negotiate with Trump, please confirm you've read the pre-shutdown Trump EO that authorizes you and yours to be probed as terrorists if you commit any thought-crime listed on the right-hand side of this Ken Klippenstein report excerpt.

*That* is who you want to negotiate with.

I never thought I’d say this, but I agree with MTG 100%.

And for the record, I’m not paid for any of my opinions. Never have been, never will be.

Air Force has the highest number of potential recruits on record The Air Force already has enough potential recruits waiting for boot camp to meet more than half its 2026 recruiting goal.

The US economy is in deep 💩

This is a bit like Stevie Wonder telling you he's confident that Ray Charles could've driven us all home if the tires hadn't gone flat.

And don't forget Ukrainian strikes on ammunition depots in Russia. Not long afterwards Russia stopped using S-300s to attack ground targets, and this year SAM use during long-range strikes against Ukrainian positions and infrastructure has become exceedingly rare.

Western analysts love to lament the general shortage of Patriot SAMs but Russia has been ignoring the cost-benefit imbalance of intercepting cheap drones for the entire duration of the war.

Russian GBAD crews have been filmed exercising precisely zero impulse control around the use of ammunition.

About a year ago I wrote a thread on X explaining that Russia would exhaust its ground-based air defenses because it fires missiles at literally everything.

A Quick Analysis of Secretary Hegseth’s General Officers Meeting Secretary Hegseth has called an unprecedented meeting of nearly all DOD's generals and admirals. The purpose is unclear but likely to inform them about strategy and organizational changes combined wit...

Hegseth doesn't like having his conversations on-record, and he isn't about to invite most of the military to his signal chats. It's probably to tell them something vaguely treasonous and/or illegal to their faces.

Trump modeling the country after Russia

Updated map of the regions of Russia where there are shortages of gasoline or diesel and how early was it first reported. Also the occupied territories are suffering even more than this. Included is this morning's Izvestia article and 1 other source.

Welp. "Bull" Elon is not an image I'm going to be able to forget without an insane amount of alcohol 🤮

And simultaneously pinpointing Ravens fans' actual frustration with Harbaugh:

Playing to not lose

Prevent Defense, Rushing 0 on 4th-and-long, "ball control" Offense, "trust the defense"

That actually might've been the best throw of Lamar's career (so far)

There was a 0.5 square foot space for that ball and that's where he put it

Lions overplaying Lamar all night; surprised it took them this long

I'm a Ravens fan but this is fekkin hilarious

Ravens might actually lose honest tonight. Lions are playing with a lot more energy.

Dude might actually be more accurate with this feet off the ground

😮‍💨

"Will you actually be happy while you're there if you spend the entire time thinking about how your experience depends on the suffering of your neighbors?"

We are fast becoming a banana republic, with two standards of justice. If you oppose the leader, you go to jail just for speech. If you're a loyalist, you get immunity for your crimes.

That's what happens in Iran - not the United States. This is a decision moment for America.
