I’m not convinced this is a nazi salute (especially compared with the really overt one that Musk did), but it isn’t like it matters, given all the other signal you get with Hegseth.

Greatest thing on Bluesky. It’s not even close.

Counterpoint: Limiting how US troops can be used illegally in unconstitutional wars of the president’s own choosing *IS* supporting “the troops.”

There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.

Caitlin KALINOWSKI over X

I resigned from OpenAl. I care deeply about the Robotics team and the work we built together.
This wasn't an easy call. Al has an important role in national security. But surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got. This was about principle, not people. I have deep respect for Sam and the team, and I'm proud of what we built together.

Couple things here:

1. What the fuck
2. I am allllllmost more offended by the suggestion that I would give this shitbox edit than having my identity stolen
3. The CEO is scheduled to be on Decoder soon and we will see if they back out!

"Who knew that putting a guy with a Crusades tattoo in charge of the military would lead to an attempt to turn the largest military in the world into an instrument of his own jihad?

Map of Iran, clearly located.

Map of Iran, clearly located.

Primer 101 on US-Iranian tensions. How did they start? 🧵

It’s important to know a couple of points:

* Iran sits between Iraq and Afghanistan

* Iranians are _not_ Arabs (neither Iranians nor Arabs appreciate this confusion)

This is a result of:

1. The passing of the World War II generation

2. Abandoning the continuous fight against anti-semitism and replacing it with Israel-first advocacy by groups like the ADL

I would also argue that a senate candidate should be held to a higher standard than a rando poster.

To give you a sense of how Georgia Democrats are doing, North Carolina Democrats are running candidates in all 170 legislative districts and all 14 congressional districts this fall

‘Keep bombing people until they stop talking about the Epstein Files’ is the main plank of U.S Foreign Policy in 2026.

The Handbasket 100% independent journalism by Marisa Kabas

Now that CNN and WBD are set to become state media in a sale to Paramount/Oracle/TikTok, it is especially important to support independent media.

Off the top of my head:

It’s a great fight to pick. Valve is targeting kids and essentially creating the Draft Kings addicts of the future.

“I Have Been Here Too Long”: Read Letters from the Children Detained at ICE’s Dilley Facility Hundreds of children are currently being held with their parents at an immigration detention center in Dilley, Texas. In letters and drawings, eight kids convey the pain of feeling trapped with no end...

“I miss my school and my friends I feel bad since when I came here to this Place, because I have been here too long,” wrote 9-year-old Susej, who said she had been held at Dilley detention center for more than 50 days.

Here's the floor plan for the new ICE concentration camp in Georgia. Look familiar? Let's take a look at some similar blueprints throughout history.
