Definitely broken for some of us. Always has been.

Are we going to bomb the bond market? What?

If you voted for the Big Beautiful Bill, please don’t get on here and express righteous indignation that the debt is now $40 trillion. Anyone with a room temperature IQ knew that cutting taxes and increasing spending was going to balloon the deficit.

The amazing thing about @ossoff’s comments is how utterly benign they are. Trump wants to “travel with Natalie.” But because Trump is a sexual predator and Natalie’s relationship to him is completely bizarre, it’s the MAGA brains who are conjuring the sordid “implication.”

I applaud all the dunking on Rolling Stone for its utterly predictable, conformist, suck-uppery to Piker. My only objection is that a lot of it implies normal people *should be* scared of Piker. They shouldn't be. He's a poseur and fraud. The only people who should be afraid of him are Democrats who want the Democratic Party to be appealing to mainstream American voters. But lending credibility to Piker's pathetic shock-jock version of radical chic is a mistake. He says indefensible things because he's not very bright and wants the frisson of transgression he can't earn on the merits. He's the sort of dude who likes to be seen at a cafe reading Sartre, but hopes no one notices he never turns the page. And the journalists who buy his act are either complicit in the grift or so shallow they can't see they're the mark.

That said, one can make the case that Piker *represents* something "scary": how easily duped a lot of young people and journalists are and their willingness to mistake a rich kid loser's support for communism, authoritarianism, terror and rape as heroic and sophisticated.

So everyone is sharing an out-of-context incorrect analysis of data to suggest that 82% of pregnant women who received the COVID vaccine had a miscarriage and therefore wildly claim it was "like an abortion shot."

That is absolutely not true. And, of course, if this had actually happened, it would've been apparent and would've shown up in the massive, global data analysis that has been done and never found any increase in miscarriage rates associated with COVID vaccines in pregnancy.

Meanwhile, the whole statistical misinterpretation everyone is sharing is based on an incorrect denominator, and the actual number, when calculated correctly, is 12%, which is the same as the typical 1st-trimester miscarriage rate in a pregnant population.

But millions of people are just falling for and sharing insane misinformation, and countless understandably heartbroken mothers who experienced miscarriages are now accusing doctors of murdering their babies.

We are so cooked.

This is an astonishing document. Not a single war aim has been achieved, but Iran receives enormous financial incentives, and even Hezbollah gets some benefits. What an absolute disaster. https://t.co/uj3990eh6q

[Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump]

What a rotten deal we made with Iran. We get nothing (except laughter at our stupidity). They get everything, including delay and big cash!

[Rushi @rushicrypto]

Greenland is now asking Trump to invade, hoping to secure a deal similar to the one Iran got.

[Ro Khanna @RoKhanna]

The ceasefire agreement with Iran with the opening of the Strait of Hormuz is welcome news. Democrats should support it. I am glad it includes a provision for mutual respect of the US & Iran's sovereignty so we do not launch a dumb war of choice again.

The war was a costly lesson for the US. As expected, Trump failed to bring about regime change. The terms seem no better than what Obama secured under the JCPOA nearly a decade ago. America lost 14 precious service members and wasted billions of dollars on this foolish endeavor.

But today, we can be relieved that gas and food costs will start coming down for Americans. And that no more American or civilian lives will be lost.

It also shows that when the Congress votes to end war --as we did last week -- it can be a wake up call for the President to listen to the anti-war sentiments of the American people.

[Sam Stein @samstein]

Pretty solid that "Iran reaffirms that under no circumstances will Iran ever seek, develop or acquire any nuclear weapons."

It is stunning to hear this from Kellyanne. Does she not hear herself? Is she truly not aware of the staggering hypocrisy?

[Fuck You I Quit @fuckyouiquit]

If the governments job isn’t to secure even basic shit like clean drinking water for its citizens, what’s its actual purpose?! THIS IS WHAT WE WANT OUR TAXES PAYING FOR

[David French @DavidAFrench]

I for one would like to join Batya in opposing serial cheaters who insult vets and enjoy massive inherited wealth from dad. I'm sure she'll be consistent in this stand. Won't she?

[Sarah Longwell @SarahLongwell25]

Preach.
