We were absolutely floored by the millions of you that watched us make silly water sillouettes on our driveway last summer. We are starting out the summer the only way we know how, and this time it’s all about movies! What else do you want to see? We have a whole summer ahead, a driveway and a hose. The possibilities are endless!!!
The @NASAArtemis crew captured this view of the Moon eclipsing the Sun yesterday. The three "stars" to the lower right of the Moon are actually planets. The middle one has a slightly red tint.
That's Mars.
MAGA calls Europe freeloaders. Here’s what they’re not telling you.
1. Ramstein Air Base, the most important US military hub outside America, is built on German land provided rent-free, with Germany contributing hundreds of millions to its upkeep. The US couldn’t replace it anywhere in the world.
2. Every US military operation in the Middle East, Africa and Central Asia flows through Ramstein. Lose it and US power projection in the Eastern Hemisphere is crippled.
3. The UK provides and maintains RAF Lakenheath used almost entirely by the US Air Force. Italy provides Aviano. Greece provides Souda Bay. Turkey provides Incirlik. European land. European infrastructure. American operations.
4. The US Sixth Fleet depends entirely on European ports for fuel and supplies. Souda Bay, Naples, 11 Greek ports. Without them the Sixth Fleet cannot operate in the Mediterranean or project power into the Middle East.
5. The majority of NATO’s intelligence and surveillance capacity is hosted on European soil and fed directly to the CIA, NSA and Pentagon.
6. Early warning radar at Fylingdales, UK. Missile tracking in Greenland. Norwegian monitoring stations near Russia. All dependent on European goodwill.
7. It would cost America MORE to bring the troops home than keep them here. European hosts subsidise roughly a third of all basing costs.
8. Europe is America’s largest arms customer. Stop buying American and part of their defence industry goes bankrupt.
9. The bases aren’t charity. They’re America using European soil, European money and European goodwill to project power across the world.
10. We’re not the freeloaders.
Hello, Moon. It’s great to be back.
Here’s a taste of what the Artemis II astronauts photographed during their flight around the Moon. Check out more photos from the mission: https://t.co/rzM1P0QbOl
The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it.
This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.
Trump's recklessness is needlessly putting our brave service members in harm's way, destroying America's global standing, and making life even more unaffordable for the American people.
We must all stand against this and oppose funding this illegal war of choice.
Viruses and Joint and Tendon Pain
You had a cold two weeks ago. Nothing serious. But now your knee hurts more than it has in months. Your achilles is flaring. Your easy run felt like a half-marathon. You didn't do anything wrong. Here's what's actually happening...
TWEEPS: On the ACA anniversary, remember: every BILLION spent on war could be used to bring down your healthcare premiums. Republicans value war over OUR health.
I need 1,000 RTs & replies with #HealthcareNotWarfare.
Please and thank you! 🙏💪
Okay but this is officially the best hiring story ever. A company in Mexico rescued an orange stray cat and decided not only to keep him… but to hire him.
They named him Engineer Miauricio and gave him the title of Emotional Support Director. His responsibilities include smiling at coworkers, gently meowing, and walking around the office making everyone’s day better.
The US has lost roughly 82k manufacturing jobs over the last year—though it posted its first monthly gain since November 2024 in January
Wood, electronics, and chemicals are the biggest losers, though almost no subsectors are doing well
Mandate? Trump won by roughly 1.5% points, and he would lose if election was today in a heartbeat. Let’s check your other nonsense:
Border: Biden backed a stricter bipartisan deal than Trump ever signed. Trump killed that bill, remember? Then turned around and took credit for enforcement rules Biden put in place.
"Criminal aliens": Biden focused removals on serious offenders and recent crossers instead of sweeping up anyone with a pulse or shooting American citizens in the streets for protesting.
Economy: Trump inherited near-full employment, cooling inflation, and factories already being built from Biden’s infrastructure and manufacturing push. Now, he is destroying it as he did with Obama's economy.
Crime: Trump left after the biggest one-year murder spike on record in 2020. Under Biden, homicides and violent crime dropped back toward multi-decade lows, with billions sent to local police.
So if those are your 4 brag lines, be ready to be demoted this November.
Chris bishop admitted in parliament that national has funded & built 45 houses.
Today on RNZ morning report willis claimed national has built more houses than labour did in 6 years.
Liar liar pants on fire.
