People who claim everything would be more efficient if the government privatized everything have probably never worked for a large company. In my experience it means waiting days for almost everything with no real way to make things happen faster, at every private sector technical job I’ve had.

Just 35% of Americans approved of what Musk was doing in the government, according to a poll from April. 57% disapproved, with 46% strongly disapproving. If Dems are serious about only supporting ideas that are popular, they would never entertain the idea of allying with a guy who was so hated.

I want to talk about those bridge collapses in Russia for a bit. I’m going to have to give a little speculation warning knowing that we don’t have evidence and likely never will. But there’s a REASON why I want to talk about this and an impact that may be tangible.

The great battle for Europe is underway. The USA,China&Russia are all interested in Europe. But they are not interested in a united, strong Europe. They want a decentralized, deindustrialized, and weakened Europe. That way, it becomes easier to wage economic wars with individual European countries⤵️

If Trump were really a master negotiator he would have used this call to pressure Putin to end the war. Seems he's more content as a Kremlin SPOX, announcing Russian attacks on Ukraine, and making weak small talk with his dictator bud.

In a sane country the President embezzling funds to throw himself a birthday military parade would immediately lead to impeachment. #ImpeachTrump

OK, these are the obvious next targets for Ukraine to bomb. Then the utter obliteration of the supply lines Russia uses for their front line. kyivindependent.com/exclusive-uk...

Funny how that works... as soon as Ukraine is clearly winning the war and Russia has no negotiating position Russia no longer wants a peace talk. Also the way that when Ukraine strikes military targets Putin goes on about casualties. What an asshole. kyivindependent.com/putin-casts-...

The GOP pitches unpopular platforms, but wins elections because they stoke fear and anger in their base while Dems try to 'reach across the aisle'. An angry customer is more likely to leave a review on Yelp than a happy customer. It is the only play they got, but it is also quite effective

This map makes it very clear where Ukraine's next strike will be. Russia's military presence has two main nodes supporting their occupying forces in Ukraine, in Luhansk and Donetsk. This is where Ukraine's strategy becomes very obvious. gfsis.org.ge/maps/russian...

With the Kerch bridge out of commission, and Russia’s air force reeling, these factories are likely the next target in Ukraine’s D-Day defense, in today’s @kyivindependent.com kyivindependent.com/exclusive-ru...

The operation lasted several months. Security Service agents mined the supports of the bridge and activated the first explosive device today at 4:44 am. The underwater supports of the bridge were severely damaged at the bottom level - 1100 kg of explosives in TNT equivalent were used.

How telling is it that Zelensky pulls off a major win, and the Rs are screaming about what an insult that was to Putin.

After politely rebuffing Trump’s rude pressure to surrender, Ukraine, the supposed American proxy, is pulling off one daring military operation after another and the US govt is as surprised as the Russians. Some proxy 😂 Zelensky is the anti-imperialist leader of the century. Pass it on.

It says a lot about where we’re at in this country that a beloved voice actor was murdered by his homophobic neighbor and every headline is still running passive defense for his killer, doing everything not to call this hate crime what it was. These are scary times. RIP to Jonathan Joss.

The bombing of Russia’s air force was the equivalent to D-Day. Today the Kerch bridge was destroyed. This is the equivalent of when the Allies connected the various landings to fully control the Normandy beach.

The Kerch bridge is destroyed. Russia’s air force has been severely reduced in size. Russia’s economy is collapsing. Ukraine is winning.

Holy shit Ukraine's SBU security service now says it has attacked the Kerch bridge in occupied Crimea in a months-long operation. It says SBU agents "mined the supports" of the bridge with 1,100kg of TNT under the water line and detonated it this morning.

If someone were to drop a deadly pathogen into the water supply because they believe in herd immunity, they would be a bioterrorist. Antivaxxers are no different.

Dutch PM Dick Schoof's coalition government has collapsed because Wilders' far-right and xenophobic PVV party pulls out of the coalition. Not surprisingly, the other 3 coalition parties didn't give in to his demands on immigration. Just like other populist idiots, he wanted to close the borders.

⚡️ Zelenskyy urges NATO’s eastern flank to prepare for a summer threat from Belarus. At the B9 summit, he called on leaders to “ask your intelligence” about Russia’s next move and stressed Ukraine defends not just itself, but all of Europe.

Same way the BBC said Medvedev was a moderate reformer. It’s the same people who say talks with Russia will work. Same people who pushed for Brexit. Most British media is pro-fascist.

When left-wing American Jews comment on a rise in antisemitism in the US - without ever mentioning Israel or attempting to scapegoat Palestinian solidarity activism - here are some trends over the course of the decade since Trump first ran for President that they are likely referring to:
