Surely the President’s task force on antisemitism will be looking into this pronto to figure out how this could have happened.
Again, more laws & more court orders cannot solve this problem of a personalist authoritarian who thinks he can just take three hour tours with aircraft carriers & B-2 bombers.
As an IR professor, it's depressing that this is outperforming all others as the best theory of US foreign policy
Given current events, seems like a good time to share this excellent article on geopolitical turbulence from the 25th Anniversary Special Issue of the journal Global Environmental Politics. @yixiansun.bsky.social @jennifer-clapp.bsky.social @matpaterson.bsky.social

He just had to wear his hat
Ah yes, the senator who challenged a witness to a fistfight during a hearing will definitely bring a steadier hand.
Much as the senator who keeps confusing Iran and Iraq and apologized because he "was mispoke" there will surely help restore public confidence.
I like this Ben Stiller fellow. When he made a movie in Wilmington, Ohio, he was nice to people. And look — he stands up for himself rather than allowing himself to be ritually humiliated.
To clarify this: the context is college sports. Trump is saying that Russia helping Iran target Americans in a war is less important than the pay structure for athletes.
Well, many countries in Europe and other parts of the world will remember about US behavior decades from now and it will not be in the US favor
Trump on the UK:
"Who gives a shit about foreign countries targeting American soldiers in the reckless war we started?" is just a hell of a take for a White House press secretary

“Who knows in which direction Trump’s narcissism and megalomania will push him? For now, what we do know is that one man has taken us to war. We know his party has voted to give him a blank check to continue it.”

It is amazing youd give up a first term job in the SENATE for a brief stint atop a game show host’s secret police police
Rep. Dan Crenshaw says culture of misinformation fueled his primary loss: "The truth didn't matter" The fourth-term congressman, who lost decisively to state Rep. Steve Toth, said baseless attacks about his alleged insider trading and gun stances fueled the upset. BY GABBY BIRENBAUM MARCH 6, 2026, 4:25 P.M. CENTRAL REPUBLISH SHARE

I’ve spent years, decades, obsessing over the Bush Administration’s Iraq WMD lies, writing about them, debunking them.
I can think of no lie about Iraq WMDs told by Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld et al that comes even close to the enormity and absurdity of this lie from Donald Trump.
So now both Russia and China are assisting Iran.
And when any news outlets write about the Trump/Rubio killing of US diplomacy, they better use ACTIVE VOICE.

Congratulations, WaPo, you did it, you published the worst take
EU-28 making a comeback! 🐟🍤🇮🇸
Just announced: Iceland has urgently moved up its referendum to join the European Union - to 29 August.
A reminder: 🇮🇸 is in many ways already a non-voting 🇪🇺 member because of the EEA. This would give them voting power to shape the laws they have to follow.
Zelensky has done everything he possibly can to satisfy this admin while he fights a war of survival for his people. And the Trump admin has done nothing but repeatedly treat him with disrespect, scorn & ridicule. 2 days ago, Trump called him “PT Barnum.” This is how Z responds.
were we wearing a suit when we asked? did we say please and thank you? it’s important to be grateful.
