Opinion | Trump Will Destroy Washington if It’s the Last Thing He Does

Disagree with Goldberger here. Trump is an unwell manchild obsessed with grandiose buildings and pet art projects.

The parallel isn’t Mussolini, it’s Ludwig II of Bavaria.

Amy Poehler and Aubrey Plaza in a very brightly lit room

an underrated explanation for why movies are so dark now is because all of those lights are being used for Amy Poehler’s podcast

Catalog called FAVORITES advertising 90sesque clothing items.

Every item here is incredible. I didn't know they still send out catalogs like this anymore. I thought they vanished alongside dial-up and Pure Moods infomercials.

Exclusive | Trump Administration Set to Receive $10 Billion Fee for Brokering TikTok Deal Investors in the social-media platform’s U.S. business agreed to give the government several multibillion-dollar payments, sources said.

this is just open and abject corruption, but the way U.S. journalism frames it you'd not really understand that there's anything untoward

This was also a nightly observation in Chicago during Operation Midway Blitz. I’m so glad some reporting is out on it now.

Again, leaders of other countries don’t talk this way. The glee with which our current leaders talk about killing people is not normal, and nor is their lack of concern for who exactly we’re killing. American bombs incinerated 100 kids in Minab. Were those the “right people”?

DOGE Targeted Him on Social Media. Then the Taliban Took His Family. Afghan scholar Mohammad Halimi, who fled the Taliban in 2021, had worked to help U.S. diplomats understand his homeland. Then DOGE put his family’s lives at risk by exposing his sensitive work for a U...

WHY did I have to keep going down this path? Nate Cavanaugh was part of DOGE outing Mohammed Halimi, who was exiled from Afghanistan.

DOGE accused Halimi of sending money to the Taliban through his work at the Institute for Peace.

The Taliban then kidnapped Halimi’s family.

If one is going to be this disingenuous and reactionary I suppose calling your publication The Editorial Board was the most sussinct way to advertise your views without anyone needing to read them.

Imagine if anthropologists visited a remote village with no grocery store and one restaurant that only served hamburgers and then concluded based on their observations that the villagers prefer hamburgers. That's essentially the discourse surrounding Americans and their relationship to cars.

We've seen another morning of increased ICE activity with DHS helicopter out and about in Chicagoland.

Feds have taken people from Humboldt Park and Ravenswood. Vehicles also seen in Rogers Park. ICE watchers are asking north side neighbors to get outside and keep an eye on landscapers & laborers.

To be clear here, they didn't just rape a man, they raped him with a knife and filmed it. They've been doing this for decades. Sometimes they use electrical prods instead. They do this to children, regularly, as has been documented by numerous human rights groups.

Anna’s hummingbird is perched on the edge of a diagonal twig in front of blue sky.  His beak points upward, his face and neck are brilliant shiny pink, and his tail feathers are flared straight out around him.  His body and tail feathers are a mix of green, gray, and white. His wings stick out to the sides.

Anna’s hummingbird looks like a tiny dancer as he displays his gorget and flares his tail feathers #PerfectlyPerched #birdoftheday #hummingbird #photography #birds
