"We hosted that Iranian ship. They disarmed for our naval exercise. Then America attacked."

India's ex-FM just exposed the setup.

The UK stays silent when our "allies" pull stunts like this.

CBS obtained video of the DHS killing of an unarmed man in Texas that DHS concealed for nearly a year, which clearly contradicts claims that he violently rammed anyone. He is shot with his brake lights on, car not moving or barely moving. Another DHS crime.

This is such a sick burn if you know you know.

Hegseth asked about Russia helping Iran to target Americans:

"We're not concerned about that... The only ones that need to be worried right now are Iranians that think they're going to live."

A grotesquely indiscriminate threat against the entire Iranian population.

It is no longer my opinion that Triangulation is connected to Trenchant, and I’ll share all I know in next week’s show

I will also say that it’s a bit wild to me that no press freedom organization or professional journalistic association has tried to contact me or even put out a statement here.

I mean Jesus Christ. A little solidarity from institutions would be nice here!

So now both Russia and China are assisting Iran.

I can't get over this, from @jonathankarl.bsky.social. Trump is working the phones to journalists, talking about his war as a "performance."

My advice to the Administration: With the U.S. uncomfortably close to a recession -- and already in a jobs recession -- don't do anything rash that could make things worse.

She also said she used to be Charlie Kirk’s lawyer πŸ‘€ & that we put him on a β€œcensorship list”.

No, sweetheart. We made a list of top bullshitters in the 2020 election AFTER the election, by looking at who spread what rumors. Your boy was on it. πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

Pointing that out isn’t β€œcensorship” it’s speech.

Names of Athenian Triremes: Investigating Group Cohesiveness and Social Identity in the Athenian Navy of the 4th Century BC - Journal of Maritime Archaeology The set of inscriptions known as the Naval Inventories of Athens (IG II2 1604–IG II2 1632) provide a wealth of information regarding the state of the Athenian navy in the fourth century BC. The inscri...

I guess I didn’t wake up thinking I needed to know the names of the 279 named triremes ⛡️in the 4th century BCE Athenian navy, but it appears we all do. link.springer.com/article/10.1... I do like that 3.58% had animal names like ΛΡοντῆ (lion skin) and Λέαινα (lioness). Greek epigraphy is fun! πŸͺ¦

This is a real video from the official White House account on a war that is currently killing people. I don’t know how the US is going to come back from this.

Justin Ling: Trump’s war in Iran shows Carney has lots to learn about the new world order β€” one thing most of all The U.S. case for war is built upon a stack of lies, and Ottawa has seen fit to rationalize every one of them.

Two decades ago, Canada declined to go to war based on lies.

Today, Cabada wasn't even invited to the war β€” and yet, for some reason, we're participating in the fiction. www.thestar.com/opinion/star...

My going theory is that while there are a lot of bad actors in porn (not in the thespian sense, though that, too, I guess), there are *only* bad actors in antiporn.
