Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent had insisted just a few days ago that oil sanctions relief on Russia was a “deliberately short-term measure".
I guess now we know what Trump's call with Putin this afternoon was about.
It's true. He is One Special Boy. This is something that is doing an amazing job of explaining things and is being recognized more and more, I notice 🤔
As an IR professor, it's depressing that this is outperforming all others as the best theory of US foreign policy
Those who have tamped down concerns about the SAVE Act’s chance of passage in the Senate are wrong. Keep your eyes on the prize. The potential for a blowout in 2026 is top of mind for Trump, and there are only a few ways to avoid it.
Call your Senators. 202-224-3121.
Almost every dystopian outcome warned about/fought against by thoughtful observes of digital media & machine learning systems over the past ten years has come to pass, of course I'm fucking cranky
In der Apokalypse wird es mein Motor und Antrieb sein, mich bis nach Kauai Island durchzuschlagen, dort zu Mark Zuckerbergs Doomsday Bunker vorzudringen und ihn höchstpersönlich aufzuessen.
Ich bin sogar bereit einen eigenen Kult um diese Mission aufzubauen.

TRUMP: Nothing to see here folks.
Don’t look at Epstein.
Don’t look at gas prices.
Don’t look at America’s collapsing reputation overseas.
Look over there… aliens. 👽
🚨BREAKING: Attorney General Pam Bondi violated federal law when she replaced Alina Habba, the former interim U.S. Attorney for New Jersey, with a “triumvirate” of attorneys, a federal judge ruled Monday. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
📌In the hour before the stock market closed, Trump told CBS News that “the war is very complete, pretty much.”
The market surged on the news.
📌In the hour after after the market closed, he said not so fast, could be longer.
📌He just made himself and his billionaire buddies A LOT of money.
the pattern we saw today was also how it went during Covid and the Liberation Day crashes. The market crashes, Trump says exactly what the market wants to hear and the market rallies back, it's then revealed that what Trump was saying is bullshit, but the market stays up instead of crashing
“The president, Walter Carter Jr., who has led the school for two years, said in a statement that the relationship was with “someone seeking public resources” and that he had “made a mistake in allowing inappropriate access to Ohio State leadership to support her personal business.”
Da fuq is this circular logic? He wanted to (allegedly) free them from their oppressive regime, but now he’s not going to free them because they’re not behaving to his liking, because they live under an oppressive regime.
Oh my god no! The Iranians were developing Trump's healthcare plan.
“I didn’t vote for THIS,” say the manosphere podcasters who simply had no way of knowing that Trump would lie about being a populist to get into office and then govern like a autocratic lunatic once in power, other than the fact that he did it for 4 entire years before that.
AOC: The Pentagon has not passed an audit, and they are out here trying to kick people with disabilities off of Medicaid. It is corruption that is stealing from the public coffers — and that is the actual waste, fraud, and abuse.
AOC: They wanted to issue this statement as though we’re just going after these 30-year-old men on Medicaid playing video games in their basement, right? This was the narrative that we heard.
First of all, I think everyone should have healthcare in America, regardless of who you are
Wahls: The war in Iran is going to be devastating for farm states like Iowa. You mentioned diesel — that is what the vast majority of farm machines, like tractors or combines, run on. And the cost of oil not only has a huge impact on fuel costs, it also has a huge impact on other farm inputs
Johnson: I think what we are learning from the Epstein files was a well-coordinated act of treason. If you think about how they use blackmail to get policymakers to act outside of the best interests of this nation and our Constitution, that’s treason.
Schlossberg: If this becomes the new normal and the president is able to trademark America’s birthday and issue his own currency while weakening the dollar, having gold skyrocket, and increasing prices on every commodity and input cost in our economy, we’re getting screwed and he’s getting rich.
Trump: All of the people that died through the roadside bombs. Died and are right now walking around with no legs.
to me it rocks that this company that has never come within light-years of making money and has a bad product with zero practical use cases is the pivot point of the global economy because a bunch of embarrassing Burning Man dorks just decided it should be
The constituency of Americans who see DEI as detrimental to the country is vanishingly small, the sort of constituency that can easily be ignored if politicians want to ignore it.
The correction fails to air the real footage or inform viewers what was different about it. It claims the error was inadvertent and pretends to honor the fallen service members, but at the end of the day Fox still doesn’t show or describe how they came home to spare Trump from its viewers’ scrutiny.
This ad shows her getting attacked by ICE as she protested.
I was there.
I saw what happened.
It was worse than these clips show, and her bravery was obvious.
After tear gas and pepper balls, after getting thrown to the ground, when the gas cleared she sat at that very spot, and started knitting.
if you believed this you should be fired on the spot because you are one of the dumbest people alive
Oh he knows, it's just this again
in a healthy society with corporate boards tasked with managing long term success, every ceo that chose to publicly support republicans with company money would be fired on the spot for the willful destruction of the company theyre supposed to be protecting
As good an image as any to illustrate America’s contribution to Middle East peace, order, and stability over the last 30 years.

“At some point, the family said, they lost Naqvi's location that was being shared from her phone. Relatives said federal agents continued to tell them that Naqvi was not in custody, despite her location previously showing her at the Broadview Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility.”
