This is what merit looks like to a lot of conservatives. You can see how qualified he is just by looking at his face.

"It was only corrected significantly, not withdrawn!"

It's the technicalities that really matter Nate, not the fundamental substance. /s

FT comments section this morning - saying what everyone else is thinking, right?

"How can you oppose war when Khamenei was evil?"

Simple. If you killed Donald Trump by nuking Washington DC, I would not mourn Trump but I'd still say you're an evil war criminal who belongs in the Hague. It's really not hard.

My guess is that Israel will also start bombing Iranian hospitals and universities, "in self-defense".

Gaza was a blueprint.

I wouldn't be surprised if Mike Johnson does his typical "I haven't heard about it" shtick.

It is a war crime to intentionally target civilians, even if they one of them were former politicians.

But Trump and Israel don't care about pesky things like the laws of war.

Only the US Congress has the power to declare war. Trump doesn't care about that, and the Republicans are too cowardly to stand up to him.

Football question: will there be another player like Lionel Messi within the next 30 years?

I want to see THIS Arsenal every game for the rest of the season.

If Eze played every game like how he plays against Tottenham, we'd have clinched the title by now.

Of course CBS would now be spreading and lending credibility to racist conspiracy theories.

Bari Weiss is doing all she can to impress Trump.

The UN has called the horrors in Sudan β€˜hallmarks of genocide,’ with thousands brutalised and killed.

The UK cannot continue to fail our legal and moral obligations to prevent genocide - we must act to prevent further atrocities and to hold those responsible to account.

And it's definitely a blessing, but still... when did I cross that threshold? And why did no one give me fair warning?

My back, hip and knees have been prepared for a while, but mentally, I wasn't ready. I still feel like a kid.

I'm fully at that age where there are often grown adults who refer to me as "sir".

I'm now one of the people young me used to call old people.

I've yet to encounter a single story that would make me think EVEN ONE member of ICE is a decent human being.

As much as I really love Arsenal, it feels like the team is lacking the mentality to lock this season up.

So much unnecessary pressure on ourselves now.

In most civilized countries, children can't be locked up for prolonged periods without committing the most heinous crimes.

Trump and his government just does it for fun.

A lot of food prices were bothering me and I finally found a way to rationalize them.

I just have to remember that what was reasonable for $10 in 2010, is very reasonable at $15 today.

They'll often talk about shared ancestry and shared religions, but everyone knows they aren't including groups like African-American Christians, who typically share both.

They just don't want to say "white" too clearly.

That this is the nonsense that Thomas Chatterton-Williams comes up with is not surprising.

What's surprising is that mainstream media continues to platform it and praise him as some insightful writer.

Tesla lost multiple racism lawsuits. He never took any meaningful action to fight racism at his companies. Because he's so rich, Elon knows that being wildly racist won't really hurt him.

A lot of us were calling out Musk's racism for years now, both online and offline. Even with this kind of info being easy to find, a lot of people will still refuse to believe it because they see him as a "genius".

Elon Musk posted about race almost every day in January Many social media posts by Tesla CEO on his platform are indiscernible from those of white supremacists, say experts

This story is not surprising to a lot of us but also hugely important, especially for πŸ”­ because this is who the space sciences are being handed to πŸ§ͺ

"Musk’s posts repeatedly echoed prominent white supremacist narratives and ideologies"
