Putin's chief propagandist tells Europe, "You want a ceasefire? I want your death". Imagine how sick a society must be for this to be their prime-time, mainstream news. Note the slow-zoom near the end.

SPRINGSTEEN, on tour in the UK: “.. "In my home, the America I love, the America I’ve written about, that has been a beacon of hope and liberty for 250 years is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous administration." @variety.com variety.com/2025/music/n...

When asked if the United States should have a military parade to show off its might, President Eisenhower responded: “Absolutely not. We are the pre-eminent power on Earth. For us to try and imitate what the Soviets are doing in Red Square would make us look weak.”

Coloradan Trisha Calvarese is working to unseat Lauren Boebert. A longtime fierce progressive and dear friend of mine is working on this campaign, and I'm excited to see someone with a real chance to consign Boebert to the cesspit of political history.
