It's the *Strait* of Hormuz, Pete, not the Straits.

So disconcerting the the guy placing so many American lives at risk has no attention to detail.

Darkly funny, all the more so for being real.

Donald Trump is notorious for filing lawsuits at the drop of a hat. He's filed over 4,000 of them. Many for defamation.

But Donald *will not* sue Ted Lieu for defamation. Why? He's been told by lawyers that in defamation actions, truth is an absolute defense.

Design of a waving black flag on a red background. It has "MY GOVERNMENT DOES NOT REPRESENT ME" written on it.

🗺️ This is for everyone who has a #government that does horrible things in their name, who voted for a campaign promise but got nothing or the opposite, who has been disappointed repeatedly, who feels unheard, or who never even got a chance to vote at all!

"Why can't we all just get along"... Rodney King

Trump sounds so deranged, frenzied, and dangerously unbalanced on Iran that every Republican refusing to say it publicly is drifting toward something that looks a lot like criminal negligence.

Bartenders have gone to prison for enabling one drunk driver.

Many military members may get care at hospitals at risk of financial distress -- partly due to Trump cuts Up to 724,000 military community members may rely health care they need partly due to President Donald Trump's cuts, according to a new analysis.

Trump and MAGA republicans love vets so much that they are gutting the VA all while sending our troops to another Middle East war.

Pollster: Trump has been just downright awful with independents. He is 38 points underwater. That is worse than Obama by 20 points. That is worse than George W. Bush by double digits.

British Sentiment over Trump shitting on Starmer, UK and "Special Relationship"

I don't agree with Labour policies half of the time, I don't like Sir Keir Starmer.

Washington state is about to ban noncompete agreements.

The state's House and Senate have both signed the bill, and it's headed to the governor's desk.

Washington would join a short list of states that prohibit almost all noncompetes.

Removing race from kidney function algorithm helped more Black patients access transplants Removing race from the eGFR had a big impact, resulting in 5.3 more kidney transplants per 1000 Black candidates.
