you see this red splotch covering Gaza? it is made of red dots, each single dot represents an airstrike under the Biden’s administration. it took two years of tremendous relentless unforgiving bombing and 4 US vetos to complete. you can’t regret your way out of this.
Wow. The SNAP cuts in the Big Beautiful Bill — already estimated at the time to be the biggest in history — are turning out to be far, far, far deeper than expected (no shade at CBO, cost estimates are hard).
We’re witnessing the beginning of a hunger crisis in America.
THEY BANKRUPTED THE PENTAGON should be the kind of scandal that results in resignations, Congressional investigations, and wall-to-wall media coverage but as well know with all things Trump, one news cycle and then it will be forgotten 🙃
just in: the Ohio EPA is NOT moving forward with general permits for data centers to discharge wastewater into lakes/other bodies of water, according to a spokesperson, after the “significant volume” of comments the agency got. it also saw political pressure from both sides (1/2)
This document is a bone-chilling signal that the new McCarthy era has already begun.
But it is all the more bone-chilling to see that the entire report was 100% written by Claude.
We are asked to prepare for a lethal LLM-powered Red Scare. What a dreadful time to be alive.
Vivek Ramaswamy ran for President for a few months, then begged to be appointed to the Senate after getting fired from DOGE after 69 days then declared for Governor.
there’s a whole chapter at the end of Against the Day where Pynchon talks about planes flying at dangerously low altitudes as a symbol of encroaching fascism
and here the trump era blue angels are just…doing it
I would like to remind everyone that Robert Mueller was 100% correct: Russia DID help Trump, repeatedly and illegally. His investigation produced 37 indictments, and seven guilty pleas or convictions.
There is only one person committing widespread election fraud: Donald Trump.
I think a lot of people are hoping democrats come in in 2028 and undo all these cuts but not a single 2028 hopeful has talked about that. The only one to touch it, Mayor Pete, said we shouldn't go backwards and that while DOGE was too harsh their general mission made sense.
And there you have it.
Donald Trump released these documents tonight believing they would finally prove the 2020 election was rigged against him.
Instead, his own release reinforced the exact opposite: Russia interfered to damage Joe Biden and benefit Donald Trump.
The central @HunterBiden -Burisma bribery smear was built on fabricated claims from an FBI informant with Russian contacts, a man now serving six years in federal prison. Meanwhile, Hunter Biden is winning millions in court over defamatory lies.
Trump tried to expose a conspiracy against himself and accidentally exposed the operation that benefited him.
Absolute, breathtaking incompetence.
Thanks for releasing the receipts, Donald!
Trump is so fucking dumb that when he heard that semiconductors use "transistors," he thought they said "transgenders."
That's how fucking stupid our President is.
Up until ~10 years ago, most boreal forest lightening strikes and human ignitions fell on damp ground, often damp from recent snow melt. Climate change has transformed this, turning the northern half of North America into a giant tinder box, where even the soil carbon can burn.
