"Unlike the chat in which The Atlantic was included, the newly revealed one was created by Hegseth. Named “Defense | Team Huddle,” it included his wife and about a dozen other people.... He used his private phone, not his government one, to access the Signal chat." www.nytimes.com/2025/04/20/u...

They love it when we fight. Over flags, borders, pronouns. While they hoard wealth, dodge tax, sip Beaujolais in peace. We scrap for crumbs, they dine like kings. Divide and conquer isn’t just their tactic. It’s their survival strategy. And we’ve been playing along too long.

Van Hollen on Fox News Sunday: "I'm not vouching for the man. I'm vouching for the man's rights. His constitutional rights to due process."

If someone is arguing against due process, just ask them if they believe someone is innocent until proven guilty. It's the same thing.

Nigel Farage defends allowing US chlorinated chicken into UK as part of trade deal. Farage/Reform want US style insurance-based healthcare; lower food/environmental standards, worker/consumer rights; return to gold standard, benefit cuts. Who in their right mind wants this.

Who could’ve foreseen that it would be a disaster to put an unqualified Fox weekend host with a drinking problem and sordid personal history in charge of the military

Friendly reminder. In the United States, criminals are entitled to due process. Even if you pay hush money rig an election, steal top secret documents, or incite a mob to overthrow the government; no matter how egregious your crimes, you’re entitled to due process.

Stop calling it deporting, so MAYBE more Americans will get it. "Deporting" is sending someone back, after due process, to the country they came from, where they arrive a free person. This is human trafficking to a foreign torture prison for the rest of their lives. GET THE LANGUAGE RIGHT.

Because it bears repeating. I am an American soldier. I am sworn to protect the constitution and the citizens of the United States. As a member of the US military, I want to let you know this. I am sworn to protect _YOU_ and I know what an illegal order sounds like.

If he has 34 felony convictions then he is definitely a convicted criminal.

Personally, I think it should be front page news for at least a month if a sitting US President is using falsified evidence to try and deny due process to a man who has committed no crime, but that’s just me

This is a nice thread about The Onion. Thank you for saying nice things, and I can confirm the premise: If you pay your staff well, and you allow them to do what they're great at, it works better than chasing algorithms. The art is better, the truth is found easier, and—bonus!—the revenue is better.

Alistair Arundell, Reform UK's candidate for Boston Coastal, Lincolnshire. Runs 41 businesses - does he have time to be a councillor? We ask because he quit after 5 months last time he was one. Saying he couldn't commit enough time to giving the job 100%: lincolnshirelive.co.uk/news/local-n...

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

It’s extraordinary that so much media still reports on Trump with the old, redundant tools of the trade. He lied about Ukraine, then he tried to extort Ukraine, and having failed he threatens to walk away from Ukraine. The idea that he was ever going to do anything unwelcome to Putin is ridiculous.

Exactly. Every piece of “red tape” is a response to an incident, death, food poisoning, mass disease outbreak, avoidable pregnancy deformation, Grenfell burning, money laundering, tax avoidance etc Anyone (looking at you , Brexiters) who wants to remove them values money more than life.

Something for Starmer to keep in mind as he figures out which relationship holds more value for the UK 👇 Ursula von der Leyen: “Europe is still a peace project. We don't have bros or oligarchs making the rules. We don't invade our neighbours, we don't punish them" www.euronews.com/my-europe/20...

Quite the paragraph: “Mr. Bessent's deputy, Michael Faulkender, will be the new acting leader, replacing Gary Shapley, the Treasury Department confirmed on Friday. Mr. Faulkender will be the third acting leader of the agency this week.” How’s that merit-based hiring going?

Universities "should collaborate on a shared litigation strategy, take a common approach in getting the public on their side, and...have Congress push back against Trump treating money allocated by the legislature as if it were a private slush fund to be used for political blackmail."
