New White House line: actually high gas prices are good for America*.

(If you're in the oil business.)

I mean, it's not actually a surprise that they think this; it's been pretty obvious for a while.

It is a surprise that they're stupid enough to say it out loud.

Olympian to grifter/influencer pipeline.

the imaginary working class these guys carry in their heads!

the working class in the US is majority female, disproportionately people of color, disproportionately immigrants from other nations

in his mind it’s just a bunch of white sitcom dads

Why Do Some People Still Wear Masks In 2026 And On A Completely Unrelated Note Why Is Everyone In The Office Sick Right Now Apart From The Guy In The Mask?

Not even Kobe himself would have believed this. Stop it.

I can't even find the words to express how repugnant and despicable this post is.

People who spew such Islamophobic bile don't belong in the United States Congress. The job of elected officials is to combat hate, not fan its flames. (1/2)

John Solly Is the DOGE Operative Accused of Planning to Take Social Security Data to His New Job A whistleblower complaint alleges John Solly claimed to have stored highly sensitive Social Security data on a thumb drive. Solly and Leidos, his current employer, strongly deny the allegations.

Seems to me that if you're upset that there's not more of a student movement fighting fascism in 2026, the first place to direct your anger is the people who crushed the wave of student organizing that crested in the months immediately preceding the fascists' rise to power.

You know what tho

If in the future there's an Iran-linked terrorist attack against the US, or if Iran get nuclear weapons, it will be Donald Trump's fault. But there will be immense social pressure against saying so, because while factually accurate, it'll be considered partisan, biased, and old news.

Here we go again.

Reminder that the CEO of Nike routinely tries to rig Oregon's gubernatorial elections to get Republicans elected.

After a series of fatal strikes involving civilians in Iraq and Afghanistan, Congress directed the Pentagon to reduce civilian casualties as part of a 2019 law. During the Biden administration, the Defense Department created the Civilian Harm Mitigation and Response initiative. The civilian mitigation teams – cut by 90% by Hegseth – work with military commanders on target planning, and making sure that targets are actually military sites. The teams help come up with "no strike" lists, including religious and cultural sites and schools

I knew that the Department of War shot a missile into a school & killed 175 civilians, mostly children.

This is learned today:

Secretary of War Hegseth had cut the teams assigned to prevent such tragedies by 90%.

We’ve never, ever had this before. A President completely untethered to truth. I mean completely untethered to truth. That’s such a bad thing. But you know what’s even worse? Way, way too many people don’t care. And way too much of the media no longer cares.

First 6 Days of Iran War Cost U.S. $11.3 Billion, Pentagon Says

LANDERS: Why did the FBI seize election records in AZ?

TRUMP: They probably thought the election was rigged

LANDERS: It wasn't though

TRUMP: Oh really? How do you know?

LANDERS: Your own AG said it

TRUMP: If you say it wasn't rigged, you're a rotten reporter

LANDERS: Where's the evidence?

Pentagon probe points to U.S. missile hitting Iranian school A military assessment suggests a U.S. Tomahawk cruise missile was responsible for at least 165 deaths at an Iranian girls' school, according to a U.S. official who was not authorized to speak publicly...

NEW: Preliminary assessment finds U.S. at fault for strike on Iranian girl's school. A source confirmed to @npr.org that U.S. CENTCOM had only one staffer assigned to mitigating civilian casualties.

Killing is fun.

So here we have the president deeming a lawmaker who has been mildly critical of him a traitor to the country.

Once again, just imagine Obama or Biden declaring some random congressman "disloyal to the United States of America," and the round-the-clock media freakout you would have seen.

Heard about Lord Sear. He was one of hip hop’s true characters and a radio legend. I’ve spent hundreds of hours listening to CM Famalam shows.

Donald Trump calls Thomas Massie a traitor for supporting the release of the Epstein Files.

Journalists need to start asking Trump what he is trying to hide.

CBS’ Mamdani Mania Under Bari Weiss’ leadership, CBS News staffers are increasingly worried the network’s editorial priorities are mirroring The Free Press, particularly in coverage of New York mayor Zohran Mamdani.

A person close to Mamdani told @nataliekorach.bsky.social that Bari Weiss "doesn’t even have the dignity to pretend to be unbiased."

"The lack of journalistic integrity, and blatant hostility, could make Fox News blush," the person added.
