Journalists praising Trump for his ‘accessibility’ when he only uses that accessibility to insult and outright lie to them will never not be weird to me.

I would vote for any politician who made it their goal to remove immunity from law enforcement regardless of their rest of their views.

The Houthis started firing into the Red Sea, disrupting shipping traffic, in 2023.

In 2025, Trump/Hegseth launched an aerial campaign against the Houthis, promising to open the waterway. Then they quit after 2 months, lying about a deal.

Red Sea and Suez Canal traffic is still lower than in 2023.

American oil executives delivered a bleak message to Trump officials in recent days: The energy crisis the Iran war has unleashed is likely to get worse.
In a series of White House meetings Wednesday and recent conversations with Energy Secretary Chris Wright and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, the CEOs of Exxon Mobil
XOM 1.69% 1
Chevron
CVX 0.08% J
and
ConocoPhillips
COP 1.36% 1
warned that the disruption to
energy flows out of the vital Strait of Hormuz waterway would continue to create volatility in global energy markets, according to people familiar with the matter.
In response to questions from the officials, Exxon CEO Darren Woods said that oil prices could rise past current elevated levels if speculators unexpectedly bid up prices and that markets could see a supply crunch of refined products. Chevron CEO Mike Wirth and ConocoPhillips CEO Ryan Lance also conveyed their concerns about the scale of the disruption, these people said.

200,000/bbls of oil per day by truck seems like a big challenge, esp. on short notice.

That's 8.4M gal/9000 gallons per tanker(?) or 933 loads/day with a huge assumption that they can load, travel, unload and return travel all within 24 hrs (I have no idea).

Afghan asylum-seeker dies in ICE custody, US advocacy group says Mohommad Nazeer Paktyawal is at least the 12th person to die ​in ICE detention this year.

He wasn't just an asylum seeker. Paktyawal was an Afghan special forces soldier who worked with the U.S. Army's 3rd Special Forces Group. He was evacuated on August 30, 2021, entered the U.S. legally and had a pending case with a work permit and social security number. Killed by ICE maggots.

Underground schools in Zaporizhzhia.
There are already 19 such schools operating, and by summer there will be 25.

And this is not the limit - the next step is underground kindergartens.

It may sound like a scene from a movie about the future.
But this is our reality.

☝️💯 a banger of a movie reference. I would add that "M" starring Peter Lorre before he fled Germany is one of the all-time great movies. You can stream it on HBO Max. Much better than the Melania documentary if any of you were wondering. ;)

"Joe Biden refused to grasp the nettle and continue the US war in Afghanistan, and also he was doing the genocide in Palestine" is a buck ass wild set of takes to hold.
