David Pogue: “I’m wondering what your thought is on the ban on foreign students, the proposal. I mean, you were one of those kids, right?” Elon Musk: “Yeah. I mean, I think we wanna stick to, you know, the subject of the day, which is, like, spaceships, as opposed to, you know, presidential policy"

Showing that modern warfare is hostile to large immobile bombers, and probably naval ships as well. The small drone swarms strategy & tactics will be taught in military schools from now on.

Please read and share. And share again. Trump, Musk and Rubio have sent millions of the poorest people in the world to their death. On purpose. Why? For tax cuts for billionaires? To appease Putin? What is the possible justification for this?

Remarkable scenes at Belaya airfield in Irkutsk, Russia. Ukraine has launched a devastating attack on Russia’s fleet of strategic bombers. The base is over 4000 km from Ukraine, but $500 drones are currently wiping out $100 million planes. Russia’s Pearl Harbor.

Sat down with the great @ronbrownstein.bsky.social for a conversation about his seminal essay, The Gray and The Brown, and the question he posed then that remains so relevant today - would aging whites pay for an America whose kids did not look like theirs? www.hopiumchronicles.com/p/revisiting...

The president of the United States is mentally compromised. He’s spreading the conspiracy that Biden was a clone.

So erstwhile co-president Elon shows up in the oval for his goodbye ceremony with a shiner and obviously high and the next day his handpicked choice for NASA administrator, official with most immediate impact on businesses, gets kicked to the curb. Thoughts?

Totally inappropriate and really unprecedented for a cabinet secretary to overtly intervene in an election of an ally like this. And even more wildly (though unsurprisingly) on behalf of the pro-authoritarian party.

Raskin: This is a gangster state. This is not basically a legitimate government that is sometimes doing corrupt things. This is an essentially corrupt enterprise. It's like watching The Sopranos. Every day, they get up and they try to figure out how to plunder and pillage the people

Between this and the Venezuelan TPS ruling, #SCOTUS has now cleared the way for removing more than one million non-citizens who, until now, were legally protected against removal. This also ratchets up the stakes in the "third-country" removal case, since many of these folks can't be sent home.

Every day Trump posts or says something that suggests he is dangerously unwell, disconnected from events around him, living in a land of make believe that should be raising questions about whether 1) he needs to step aside 2) his staff is covering up his condition as they did Musk's epic drug use.
