Fox host says he 'hasn't washed hands in 10 years' Harvard and Princeton graduate Pete Hegseth says germs don't exist because he can't see them.

I just remembered the first time I heard of Pete Hegseth www.bbc.com/news/world-u...

Marco Rubio wearing a navy suit and black dress shoes. He's looking down at his feet.

"i think he bought the wrong size"

people joke about what experiencing even the banalities of modern society would do to a medieval peasant, but here's a German tourist from a small farming village who says some Times Square salsa verde physically incapacitated him gothamist.com/food/theres-...

In particular, my understanding is that once storage fills up, wells have to be 'shut in,' at which point restarting them is a long, costly, slow process.

So there are points where an extra day of closure locks in days or weeks or months of reduced production and thus higher prices.

leaders like trump are why sun tzu had to write a bunch of advice like "don't write your enemy a letter detailing what tactics you really don't want them to do"

democrats still seem to be laboring under the delusion that they can introduce stuff to pass while trump is president and they, not trump, will somehow get credit for it. they learned nothing from trump taking credit for covid stimulus checks

Court documents expose Rubio, Wiles and Conway's ties to $50 million scam And they're just the tip of the iceberg

Inside a $50 million Venezuelan lobbying deal and a court battle ensnaring White House power brokers — including Secretary of State Marco Rubio and chief of staff Susie Wiles.

OMG they released the deposition videos where they revealed that these two DOGE bros were just feeding grants into ChatGPT and saying "tell me if this is DEI in less than 120 characters."

you know its a weird coincidence but it seems like we never really get those helpful explainers about how the stock market circuit breaker works when a democrat is president

AOC: The Pentagon has not passed an audit, and they are out here trying to kick people with disabilities off of Medicaid. It is corruption that is stealing from the public coffers — and that is the actual waste, fraud, and abuse.

Donald Trump has called me a "really bad person," a "radical” and an “election stealing lawyer.” I think he is a deranged authoritarian.

Anyone Else Have Those Weird Dreams Where Sobbing Future Generations Beg You To Change Course? The human subconscious is such an interesting thing. No matter how much you think you’ve got it figured out, it’ll always spit out the most random stuff. Take me, for example. After coming home from a...

The meme with a guy and two girls. The guy is labeled 1:59 AM. His girlfriend islabeled 2 AM. The cute girl coming the other way is labeled 3AM.

The US and Canada go to Daylight Savings Time tomorrow morning.

I'm too bored of this to try and be clever about it anymore.

If you think that two men kissing, or two women kissing, requires any more explanation than a man kissing a woman, that is homophobia.

okay but having a kid in a Pixar movie prompts the question of where babies come from and the answer is "the parents fucked"

those complains aren't and have never been about difficult conversations with kids, it's about making life easier specifically for bigots at the expense of everyone else

Wow -- as first spotted by @BadFoxGraphics on X, Fox & Friends this morning used *old footage of a previous dignified transfer* to mislead their audience about the fact that Trump wore a baseball cap during the one yesterday

'One year of failure.' The Lancet slams RFK Jr.'s first year as health chief In a scathing review, the top US medical journal's editorial board warned that the "destruction that Kennedy has wrought in 1 in office might take generations to repair."

The Massachusetts Department of Correction has been fighting me for months, trying to withhold data about its collaboration with ICE.

Yesterday, I won that fight, and obtained records showing that the state has transferred more than 2,000 people into ICE custody since 2009.

A quick thread:

I’m sorry, doing this in a baseball cap sold by your campaign store is deliberately disrespecting the dead.

Calvinism was a mistake

never, ever, ever, ever accept "how will you pay for it?" as an argument against social programs.

RFK Jr. wants Dunkin’ to prove drinking its iced coffee is safe - The Boston Globe The warning comes as Kennedy is leaning heavily into his agenda to improve American diets.

This moron has no idea how much of a third rail this is. If he goes through with a public fight with Dunkin he will never live this down. In the words of my people "fuck ya motha."

F-15 loses its perfect record to the HORNET?????

no. give him a medal. a kill’s a kill

Since July, more than a dozen pregnant children have been moved to a single facility in the small town of San Benito, along the south Texas border. The children kept in Texas are as young as 13, and about half are pregnant because of rape, according to a joint investigation by the Texas Newsroom and the California Newsroom. In Texas, abortion is banned in nearly all circumstances, including rape and incest.

the phrase “more than a dozen pregnant children” ringing in my ears www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

With Us or Against Us, Again Congress didn’t authorize this war, and the only response to questions is a loyalty test we’ve fallen for before.

Afghanistan started at 92 percent approval. Iraq started at 71. Iran started at 27. The "whose side are you on" rhetoric is identical. The country underneath it isn't. I wrote about how the framework works, and who's deploying it. www.readtpa.com/p/with-us-or...

How OpenAI caved to the Pentagon on AI surveillance The law doesn’t say what Sam Altman claims it does.

"OpenAI caved + framed it as not caving, and screwed Anthropic while framing it as helping them". www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...

Three Americans dead and Trump’s UN Ambassador waves it off with some bullshit jingoism. From the people who wailed about Benghazi for a decade. Absolute soulless ghouls.
