Investigation finds โ€˜secretlyโ€™ added chemicals of unknown safety in US food supply | CNN Over 100 chemicals of unknown safety were secretly added to foods and supplements without notifying the public or the FDA, a new investigation found.

This is not comforting to me, at all.

Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"

Blowtorching diplomatic and humanitarian capacity while burning through military capabilities and alienating allies is malpractice of the highest order by the Secretary of State, the nation's top DIPLOMAT, and by the National Security Advisor. It does not help the military to kill US diplomacy. 14/

But you need actual people in post who know the region. You cannot rely on real estate magnates who do not understand what the adversary is offering and who only care about making money after the war. You need people who know how to play hardball and whom to call to reassure behind the scenes. 11/

Thanks. It shouldnโ€™t be on Spotify at all. I had it removed years ago because Spotify are swindlers. 39,000 plays generated ยฃ0.90. Spotify keeps โ€˜accidentallyโ€™ reactivating it - and keeping all the money. ๐Ÿคฌ

Fooling people into thinking things prefaced with "BREAKING" are news feels like the equivalent of chatbots fooling people into thinking they're sentient just by using the pronoun "I".

One thing I hate about all the defenses of Platner is the underlying, deeply dumb and destructive belief that it's all about casting.

I planned to share my report on the body cam footage early next week when I learned that a DC news station had obtained some of the footage as a result of my lawsuit and they were going to scoop me. After working on this for a year, I couldn't let that happen. Published 2 mins before they aired :)

1/ Russian bloggers are waking up to the fact that they live in an oppressive dictatorship with declining living standards. 14 years after Vladimir Putin was reelected as "a strong leader for a great country," commentators are asking: what has Putin ever done for us? โฌ‡๏ธ

A recurring theme in Tolkien's works is that evil doesn't have the ability to create. It can only steal, corrupt, and mock.

Aside from the childish unseriousness, the thing that just really stands out to be here is just the artistic and cultural leeching. They can't produce anything anyone actually wants to watch themselves so they just pinch a load of clips to repurpose.

Let's be clear that this plane wasn't sent to the Middle East to rescue Americans. It was already in the region and had been stuck because of Trump's war.

Not only that, this aircraft was IN the theater of engagement hours before the war started. Trump risked the safety of this and other aircraft.
