WASHINGTON (AP) — Pentagon tells Congress the first week of the Iran war cost the US $11.3 billion, an AP source says.

No president has ever been as stupid and as criminal as Donald Trump.

Just going to leave this here.

This is a big fat lie. And this guy was in charge of our negotiations with Iran that involved all sorts of technical details? It’s truly amateur hour.

Trump to Local 12 Cincinnati: "There's never been a better year for a president. I've been rated. That includes the stoppage of 8 wars with a 9th to come. The economy is roaring. It's phenomenal. That's why I'm here. This is an excursion, a little excursion, and I think it's only that."

If most Americans care about the climate, why is the US clawing back protections? | Colorado Public Radio Two thirds of Americans say they are concerned about climate change. Asked whether they are directly affected, and the percentage plummets. Asked what they should do about it, and it shrinks further. ...

I was unaware how much tobacco marketers went on to influence our perceptions of climate change.

It's always eye-opening -- and inspiring -- to speak with atmospheric scientist and educator @katharinehayhoe.com:

This administration is committing Watergate level crimes multiple times per week—and those are the ones we know about. It’s crazy to think about what else will come out after.

It’s absolutely essential these criminals are held responsible for their crimes. We must end elite impunity.

I CANNOT wait for the next No Kings Day.

It’s going to be incredible to be once again surrounded by everyday people who reject this madness.

Everything is maybe slightly worse than we said it was going to be.

Anyone paying attention could have seen this coming a million miles away.

It’s a mystery!

Why. Why are humans this fucking ignorant?!

This is the opposite of the thing Mr. Burns put up in the whole “Who Shot Mr. Burns?” episodes of The Simpsons, but it’s just as fucking awful.

Saying that you -must- be grateful is what domestic abusers and Russian prison guards do. You must take the violence and say you like it. It is a mark of fascism.

Quite amazing the way Leavitt lectures the press and insists they should be "grateful" to the Trump government. She also says media should be grateful to the armed forces, but she leads with the "administration" then quickly catches herself and switches to the troops.

How the US far right bought into the myth of white South Africa’s persecution The long read: When Trump granted white South Africans refugee status, he was echoing a falsehood about Black people taking revenge for years of brutality. But no one flourishes in a repressive police...

V interesting piece www.theguardian.com/news/2026/ma...

Calling for a more coherent policy response to driving harm Abstract. High rates of population-level driving are associated with multiple adverse health outcomes arising from road crashes, air and noise pollution, p

NEW STUDY: “Thanks to the influence of the road lobby, the harms of driving are underestimated & overlooked, while measures that make walking, cycling, & public transport the easiest option are viewed with suspicion. Policy responses to reducing population-level driving…can create positive change.”

Reddit screenshot from Glasgow thread. Bright flames rising out the side of a Victorian building.

Video screenshot from Reddit. Building is now a shell with flames visible in every window.

The roof has collapsed embers rise into the night sky.

The fire at Glasgow central station is utterly devastating. Shops, homes and our transport link to England are being wiped out.
I am amazed by the limited news coverage.

“AI is going to revolutinize how we murder children.”

Nah, he knows. Seen the depo video? He just doesn't want to answer. Because he knows how bad it would make him look. Typical depo evasion. He thinks it's funny all the work people are having to do (like this depo), & nobody has fixed it yet. Thus the smirk.

For those who haven't seen it. ⤵️

As a Claude user I can interpret this for you. He did not read the EO and does not know or care what DEI means. He fed the EO into an AI, clicked "accept all changes without asking" and went back to bed. That's why he can't answer and why he thinks the EO can.

Kristi said habeas corpus was Trump's authority to deport people

All the President’s Men quote has such range in this administration. “The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.”

Also

These people are, to be blunt, substantially less intelligent than they believe they are.

Tbh I never thought there’d be a senator from the Carolinas whose death I’d celebrate *more* than Strom Thurmond or Jesse Helms but damn Lindsey you really rose to the occasion. Respect. Also, die in a fire.

“I didn’t vote for THIS,” say the manosphere podcasters who simply had no way of knowing that Trump would lie about being a populist to get into office and then govern like a autocratic lunatic once in power, other than the fact that he did it for 4 entire years before that.

I wonder how much of Jared Kushner's "negotiating" involves trading national security secrets for beneficial financial arrangements ...
