Tragic.
First the Hotel Okura, then Nakagin Capsule Tower, and now the Kagawa Prefectural Gymnasium —Japan keeps destroying its Modernist architectural masterpieces for the slimiest of pretexts: property redevelopment.

What do they all have in common?
They've all spoken out about Ticketmaster ripping off fans.
But Trump just gave Ticketmaster the equivalent of a corporate pardon.
It's a betrayal of every fan in America.
We can classify what's happening in oil tonight as an orange swan event.
You can’t expect a treasonous 5x draft dodging trashy criminal to properly and respectfully honor the fallen troops that he’s responsible for killing. I truly hate him.
CBS: If you could tell the American public the US definitively did not bomb that elementary school in Iran, you would tell us, wouldn't you?
HEGSETH: I would say it's being investigated, which is the only answer I'm prepared to give
Cosmically, there is something very darkly funny about spending an entire decade of American politics obsessed with repudiating the mistakes of the Iraq War, and then immediately doing it again at the first opportunity, but with even less justification, planning, strategy, or foresight.
NTSB is the last exemplar of independent professionalism in federal government, because we used to think stopping plane crashes was a goal beyond partisanship
Everything he touches dies.
I wonder what percentage of Americans knows that the CIA helped overthrow a democracy in Iran in 1953, installing a brutal dictator who tortured and murdered people. Republicans keep citing the 1979 Islamic Revolution as if that was the start of U.S.-Iran hostilities. Go back 26 years earlier.
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. (1/3)
🚨BREAKING: President Donald Trump declared Sunday that he will not sign any other legislation until Congress passes the SAVE America Act, dramatically escalating his campaign to force the voter suppression bill through the Senate. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Earth has the best museums though!
There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.

The 1973 oil embargo triggered inflation, political turmoil and global upheaval. As the Iran war now threatens energy markets again, history shows how quickly an oil crisis can ripple into everyday life.

It's simple really, it's because he faced no real accountability for his actions.
USUALLY presidents getting blame or taking credit for gas prices (or local crime rates, or etc etc) is dumb, because it’s a commodity whose price is set on a global market, USUALLY for reasons having little to do with the White House’s occupant. But this is 100% directly Trump’s fault.
Across the Persian Gulf coastline from Iran sit more than 400 desalination plants operated by Gulf Cooperation Council states.
In Kuwait, approximately 90% of drinking water comes from desalination; in Oman the figure is 86%, in Saudi Arabia 70%, and in the UAE 42 %.
Trump is thirsty for karma.

I suspect Hegseth/Miller think a silent majority will rally to zero-sum nationalism (tariffs), treating all immigrants as criminals, and a kill-first-think-later military posture (what Hegseth calls the “warrior ethic”). It's a big deal that this isn't happening. 6/

US Treasury Secretary Bessent: To ease the temporary gap of oil around the world, we may unsanction other Russian oil.
"There are hundreds of millions of sanctioned barrels of sanctioned crude on the water. And in essence, by unsanctioning them, Treasury can create supply."
The price of oil surged higher and showed no signs of halting its rapid climb a week after the U.S. and Israel launched major attacks on Iran that escalated into a war in the Middle East.
The Trump administration asked an appeals court to restore punishments imposed by the president on several prominent law firms, saying that judges who had blocked the sanctions infringed on his authority. The firms argue the orders were unconstitutional.
As the US military operation against Iran shifts into a new phase following last Saturday’s opening salvo, how the war ends remains the top question for many officials, lawmakers and US allies.
We’ll soon be measuring the Pentagon by the number of countries it’s NOT striking.
