The Americans, who really don't like public enterprise and are highly suspicious of government, have launched themselves into a war, the largest public enterprise of them all. Everyone involved, from the most senior admirals to the newest recruit, is a public servant on the government payroll.

It’s pretty wild that we KNOW there is compromising blackmail on our current president and it’s just kind of ignored.

Someone in NYC should do interviews with middle-school kids who take the subway to and from school every day, to see if they have any advice for Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy who can't seem to go a single day without pissing himself in fear over them.

Trump is a fucking narcissist, and has put us all in danger.

I’m sure this be very useful for Scotland at the UN when the English Gvt tells them Scotland isn’t a colony because it has self governance.

Sickening racism from a sitting senator. The Ogles hate is contagious.

You’re either calling this out or normalizing it. There’s no third option.

is there a term for how too many people fucked something up for there to be any consequences?

"We started a war of aggression for no reason & commenced it by accidentally bombing an elementary school & killing over 100 kids."

That simple fact is so horrific that it's just kind of bouncing on the surface of our collective consciousness. We can't absorb its full implications & significance.

My Year as a Degenerate Sports Gambler Practically overnight, America made wagering on a game as frictionless as checking the weather. I was determined to understand the consequencesβ€”for my country, and for myself.

I was assigned to go with McKay to Vegas and teach him the ways of darkness. Best assignment I ever had - and included as a story in here.

"Covid will be over in two weeks. Gone by Easter"
"We're signing a health care plan within two weeks"
"They’re dying, Russians & Ukrainians. I want them to stop dying. I’ll have that done β€” I’ll have that done in 24 hours"

Based on his record, this isn’t ending anytime soon.

58-year-old woman struck, killed by hit-and-run driver in Jamaica, Queens: police Police say a 58-year-old woman was crossing from north to south on Jamaica Avenue, when she was struck by a dark-colored sedan.

Three people killed by drivers this week in NYC. If this had happened on the subway we wouldn’t stop talking about the DaNgER

Trump's supporters cheer the destruction of diplomacy. They applaud when he mocks climate science and bombs schools. But history will not be kind. 54% of Americans already oppose his handling of the Iran war . Humanity deserves leaders who prioritize peace, not personal profit.

eventually the rest of the world is going to come to the conclusion they have no choice but to punish the american electorate collectively for refusing to take our responsibility seriously

This might be the greatest split-screen ever broadcast.

They’ll play this in museums in future.
