He also invented the question mark.

In a nutshell: Iran - zero nuclear weapons pre-Trump bombing — many nuclear weapons afterwards.

Losing his sh*t It’s Tuesday. There are 497 days until the midterm elections. Orange SCOTUS endorses slavery and human-trafficking, chickencrap Cassidy has some concerns and a Trumpian tantrum.

For perspective, 202,000 lost jobs is a bit more than 1 out of every 1,000 people currently employed in the US. $46B is about $1.6 out of each $1,000 of current US gdp. These cuts are gonna hurt and they are only one part of the oncoming economic damage.

Oh, the president *said* that? Well, that's good enough for me. His word is his bond and he has never gone back on it.

No one should be surprised, alarmed yes!

Performative public lying is a hallmark of far right authoritarian parties

I can’t speak for every city, but here in LA, ICE bounty hunters aren’t going after gang members. They’re hunting the vulnerable: gardeners, street vendors, day laborers. Easy money, no risk. Folks need to stop pretending this is about crime. @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social—thank you for your words.

God bless this woman. She is a hero. Every damn word 🔥 The only thing I’d add: call the local police and report the group of men impersonating ICE and the attempted kidnapping—while they’re still lurking around.

Some folks will get pissed at me for this, but sometimes I think this country deserves Trump. We elected him twice. We had his playbook: Project 2025 and still looked away. This nation has deep rot. Misogyny. Racism. The question is: will enough of us learn the lesson?

We need to start pushing back—legally If they’re masked, unmarked, and flashing Amazon gear, report it for what it is: an attempted kidnapping by law enforcement impersonators. 🎥 Record. 📍 Share location. 📞 Call the police. “ICE vest” is not an ID.

Thank you @cwebbonline.com for the advice below. I live in Virginia, ICE raids are happening here. Nothing to compare with the scale in L.A.. Virginia does have a republican governor in Glenn Youngkin. I feel L.A. is the test and it will soon be coming to my local areas.

I live in LA, not NYC, but I just want to say how refreshing it is to see big city politicians who give big cities the love. We LOVE our cities and we'd die for them. That's why we all live here

But…last night Trump said the Israel-Iran ceasefire will last 'forever’.

UPDATE: Hero at the Torrance car wash, Bertha Alicia Guzmán, is speaking out after stepping in like a boss during an “immigration raid”. She helped stop a worker from being taken by “ICE” agents suspected of being imposters.

JUST IN: A federal appeals court has ordered the return of yet another man deported to El Salvador in violation of a court order. Jordin Melgar-Salmeron was deported on May 7, 30 minutes after the court ruled. Details TK s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

Well executed

RUIZ: Did you read the report & fact-check its sources prior to publication? RFK JR: I did not fact check RUIZ: It included citations to sources that don't exist. How does that happen? RFK JR: All of the foundational assertions are accurate RUIZ: They did not exist. How can they be accurate?

Powell Says US Oil Industry Is More Cautious And Focused On Making Profits 🛢️

The guy that was facing prison or white house time last November is now starting world war three. who would have guessed

UPDATE: “The man who impersonated ICE to intimidate the employees of a Philly auto repair center — and steal about $1,000 — will face numerous felony and misdemeanor charges…”: www.phillyvoice.com/philly-robbe... Fake ICE agents were inevitable. How can cities be proactive about this?

The Supreme Court approved this today.

WATCH: “He was cutting grass.” Soboroff & Wallace on the sickening beating of the father of 3 Marines, and how @joerogan says he wouldn’t have signed up if he had know it would be like this, “tearing the fabric of the community”. (But he should have known)

NEW YORK TIMES: IRAN COORDINATED WITH QATARI OFFICIALS TO PLAN ATTACKS ON THE U.S. AL UDEID AIR BASE IN QATAR, GIVING ADVANCE NOTICE TO MINIMIZE CASUALTIES, ACCORDING TO THREE IRANIAN SOURCES.

Can anybody help identify this bird that just flew over me?

What America needs is a “cease-liar.”

I didn’t have the Supreme Court destroying the authority of federal district courts on my bingo card. But in retrospect that’s perhaps where all this shadow docket decision-making was going all along. Really scary stuff.

The US Army just commissioned four techbros as Lieutenant Colonels in a newly created detachment: Palantir's CTO, Meta's CTO, OpenAI's CPO, and OpenAI's former CRO/previously exec at Palantir and PayPal (Shyam Sankar, Andrew Bosworth, Kevin Weil and Bob McGrew respectively). (ping @gilduran.com)

This is absolutely dystopian. #Palantir #OpenAI #Meta and #ThinkingMachineLabs executives, will now be commissioned as lieutenant colonels - without ever having served and without even having to attend boot camp. #Detachment201

oh come the fuck on

The US Army just swore in tech executives as Lieutenant Colonel: Shayam Sankar - Palantir Technologies Andrew Bisworth - Meta Kevin Weil - Open AI Bob McGrew - Open AI These unqualified civilians will now have access to sensitive military info they can hand off to their company.

KAINE: “You didn’t call any of the families. They learned about it from the press.” @sentimkaine calls out @petehegseth for not having the courtesy to call the families of the 🇺🇸 soldiers whose names he’s stripping from military bases to put the names of Confederate generals back.

Pete Hesgeth is currently busy meeting with his top Generals, Hennessy and Daniels, with a later follow up meeting in the office of Gen. Smirnoff
