America's chattering pundits say that Trump can declare the Iran War won and stop fighting.
He can only if Iran stops fighting too.
If Iran keeps attacking American bases, even at a low intensity, Trump will have to keep responding.
He will have no other option.

The president is handing out oversized clown shoes to his cabinet β€” and watching to see who refuses to wear them.

It's Solzhenitsyn's Stalin story come to life: the first person to stop applauding ended up in the gulag. The lesson then, as now β€” never be the first to stop clapping.

Elon Musk is now worth $845 billion. Tesla reported paying ZERO federal income tax on $5.7 billion of U.S. income in 2025. And yet we can’t tax billionaires because they would just move to somewhere they aren’t taxed.

I wish we didn’t have to pick up the tab for his mother’s refusal to hug him as a child.

This stone stopped me in my tracks. For a moment I thought I had discovered rock art, but up close the patterns were clearly natural. With my very limited geology knowledge, my best guess is a Liesegang ring. I’d love to take it home, but it weighs more than my backpack!

To the "I didn't vote for this" folks. You voted for a convicted felon. A twice-impeached president. A man found liable for sexual abuse, who tried to overthrow an election. And now gas prices are surging, we're at war, and soldiers are coming home in coffins. This is what you voted for. All of it.

Bush on why he quit golf during the war: β€œI didn’t want some mom whose son may have died to see the commander-in-chief playing golf. I owe it to the families to be in solidarity as best I can. And I think playing golf during a war sends the wrong signal.”

When BlueSky changes ownership, all I ask for is that I can still get a chronological feed as a default.

It no longer exists on Facebook, and Twitter makes it difficult.

I follow people because I want to see their posts when they post them.

Every news source other than US News says everything Trump says is not accurate. Stopping short of calling him an outright liar.

Please, if you are able, give even 5 dollars. My child is fighting to survive, and every small amount helps us move closer to the care he needs.

Always hard to tell if maga so misunderstands the gravity of war because they're psychopathic, or because they're so fucking stupid

I am so sick of the agenda of "sanitizing" the internet under the guise of it being to "protect the kids" or please these payment processors. Parents need to actually parent their kids and the payment processors should honestly have NO say where MY money goes. Just so annoying...

Good thing trucks that transport millions of products every day in the US don’t use diesel so we don’t have to worry about inflation getting worse.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a giant squid wearing a yellow Bart t-shirt and some terrible hypebeast shorts is looking in the mirror. It says, β€œneed groceries… but all my clothes are in the laundry.” Panel 2: the squid, now also wearing hot pink crocs, exits its apartment and says, β€œeh. I won’t see anyone.” Panel 3: two fisherman are pulling the squid to the surface of the water and pointing at it. An overlayed news caption reads: RARE SQUID SIGHTED - the fit was crazy

I’m seeing a whole lot of β€œbut what about” posts on here today.

We’ve reached the point of fascism (a long time ago, honestly) when things are really bad for a lot of people.

Someone naming how it’s bad for them isn’t taking anything from you. Solidarity with each other is the way out of this.
