To be fair, I've always wanted a Secretary of Defense who could 'feel' Communism...🙄 jfc these goddamn people.

Huge news from @status.news. Hoping many others will join in this effort.

Ray Dalio tells Kristen Welker this country should prepare for something worse than a recession. Our world economic conflict could turn into a military conflict!👇

There’s a special place in HELL for anyone who stands before the Supreme Court and argues that a man they wrongfully sent to an El Salvadorian death camp should stay there.

Truth

Last I checked Trump had an EO prohibiting antisemitism in his Federal govt. Pimping a guy who stans Hitler would seem to violate the EO but maybe I'm misunderstanding how it all works.

The Fourth Amendment, right out the window.

Part of the 'success' of Gender Critical, aside from the red carpet rolled out for it by the media, is that it functions as a kind of Axis beach head inside the brains of people who think of themselves as liberals. It sets up mental pontoon bridges for panzers.

Palestinians remain on the scene, examining the wreckage left by last night’s Israeli airstrikes on Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital in Gaza City.

WTAF is this?! Some of y'all made a lot of excuses for her photo-op with that Demon this week but this is downright egregious. I see no great presidental leadership at all. If Kamala did this shit, y'all would blow a gasket.

"Trump cannot assuage the bond market. He cannot convince it that he is 'normal' and should be given the benefit of the doubt. He cannot scare it into submission. He cannot bribe it. The bond market is not like the Supreme Court or Paul Weiss or Columbia."

Donald Trump is now badly wounded. Europe and the UK can seize an advantage. The impact of US tariffs will shrink UK GDP by 0.7%, while a deeper deal with the EU 🇪🇺 could instead lift GDP by 1.5%, despite US tariffs. - Time to act in the national interest Starmer! www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

RFK Jr.’s clearest proposal so far is his campaign promise to create wellness farms where Americans would reconnect with the soil, an old idea that’s failed many times, @shaylalove.bsky.social reports:

🎤 drop Kennedy aims to reconnect Americans with the soil. 😅

New colonialism. Trump ‘demands control’ from Ukraine of key pipeline carrying Russian gas to Europe. All part of US plan to takeover Ukraine energy and mineral assets; handing territory to Russia. Trump is no friend. Ukraine can pay back US aid over next 75 years, without being enslaved.

Again, that Musk/DOGE penetrated this deep into the government this quickly is the most damning indictment of supposed American norms and guardrails imaginable. These are fuckin pirates; unelected, unappointed, unqualified marauders. A functional country would have laughed them out of the building.

A Palestinian family is devastated as a doctor, who had fought to save their son’s life, delivers the heartbreaking news of his passing. The young man had suffered critical injuries in an Israeli airstrike and later died at Al-Ahli Arab (Baptist) Hospital in Gaza City.

The Fall Of Pax Americana

“The level of vitriol I receive for mentioning "masks," is deeply upsetting and any bill that discourages or criminalizes masks will only increase these sentiments.” —Charlotte Friend has Chronic Active EBV for 14 years —sharing her deep concerns about Texas anti-mask bills HB3061, SB2595 & SB2876.

The U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services has repeatedly claimed: “If you’re healthy, it’s almost impossible to die from an infectious disease in modern times.” That is dangerously false. www.medscape.com/viewarticle/...

Over 70 tents housing displaced families were destroyed in intense Israeli airstrikes on Bani Suhaila, east of Khan Younis.

These signs are glorious!😂

Suggest you read first Quora section below, profiling the issues around building a new plant in the US. Very helpful and full of most of the issues that companies must consider. Bottom line: due to Trump's unpredictability, NO COMPANY will be building a new plant here. NO ONE! www.quora.com

No spoilers please. I can’t wait to see what drama happens next on White POTUS.

Travel Warnings will do that.
