Happy OPSEC month to all those who celebrate.

This is one of the worst interviews I’ve ever seen. Moran keeps trying to move on from a point Trump is CLEARLY WRONG ON and just says “agree to disagree.” Do your fucking job!

In this vein - what are some things that make sense to stock up on (while supply chains hopefully adjust)? I already bought a new car...

May I suggest a solution:

if you're sad about the pope dying imagine if you were isis and your guy, abu bakr al-baghdadi (the pope of jihad), had just been killed in a raid launched by donald trump and when you turned, as one does, in a fit of heartbreak to the comfort of CNN, all you saw was Brett McGurk's mocking face.

I don’t really give a shit how much of a conservative this makes me sound like, but the United States has suffered an existential collapse in the civic virtue of our citizens necessary to sustain a liberal democracy.

Said this a little while back, but: These are all things *we eagerly stepped up to do* because we believed it to be in our national interest to occupy those roles. We're going to find out what happens when the rest of the world decides we're too erratic and unreliable to do so.

well, a very big congrats to the idiots on Wall Street that ignored every single sign that he was going to do this

Xi Jinping hearing the news that Trump is considering 20% universal tariffs:

I guess I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore. Fuck decorum. danieldrezner.substack.com/p/american-f...

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

So what the fuck is a T-bond worth when every action the USG takes is ultimately up to a single man regardless of how dried the ink on the pages of the laws is? Really don’t think Wall Street has even begun to approach actual correction territory yet.

Brandenberg v. Ohio, Elon Musk. Brandenberg v. Ohio, Donald Trump. Brandenberg v. Ohio, Mitch McConnell.

People think I’m joking when I keep saying I would abolish YA literature. No. You people need to be tied down and forced to read Homer, Shakespeare, and Dante until you’re ready to engage in democratic civic life as well ordered citizens.

Trump's cutting of Ukraine's access to intelligence feeds is already inflcting a catastrophic loss of life at the front. And today, North Koreans are pouring over the border for the first time. Americans will never be forgiven for this. eutoday.net/us-intellige...

The Fulbright program is required by law. It’s literally named after the senator that passed the bill.

This ain’t it chief

when the administration breaks many of these people will claim to have been against it all along and it is going to be really important to shout this down at every opportunity
