As far as I can tell, Tulsi’s big “secret biolab” bombshell is recycled Kremlin propaganda. These labs were never secret.
The U.S. spent decades funding biosafety and disease-surveillance work abroad under Nunn-Lugar, with the facility lists posted publicly by the State Department and our own embassy in Kyiv.
Russia invented the “secret bioweapons” spin in 2022 to help justify invading Ukraine. Our own intelligence flagged it as disinformation. Now Tulsi is laundering that exact line, while conveniently forgetting the first Trump administration funded this same research.
Nothing was hidden and the only thing being manufactured here is the coverup.
Tulsi, don’t let the door hit you on the way out.
Had the back patio redone last week.
Four guys showed up at 8:15.
At 8:30 I went outside and asked if they had five minutes for a quick standup.
The foreman said "a what."
I said "a standup. Quick sync. Five minutes. What did you do yesterday. What are you doing today. Any blockers."
He said "we just got here."
I said "right so no blockers. Great. Let's reconvene at noon."
He looked at his crew. His crew looked at the ground.
At noon I went back outside. Asked for a status update.
He said "we're on track."
I said "on track relative to what baseline."
He said "the plan."
I said "is the plan documented somewhere."
He pointed at the patio.
Fair enough.
My wife came outside around 2 PM.
She said "have you been out here all day."
I said "I've been providing board-level oversight."
She said "you've been sitting in a lawn chair watching four men work."
I said "that's what board-level oversight is."
She went inside.
They finished Thursday. One day ahead of schedule.
The foreman shook my hand at the door and said "good working with you."
I said "likewise. I'll send over a post-mortem."
He said "please don't."

For a thousand years we have traded blows, barbs, and the occasional reluctant alliance, from Agincourt's muddy fields to Waterloo's decisive square, from the Entente Cordiale that saved civilisation to those moments when we eye each other across the Channel like quarrelsome spouses who secretly relish the rows. No other rivalry quite measures up: the Germans are too earnest, the Americans too distant, the Scots too familial.
It's a relationship that has shaped empires, toppled monarchies, and produced Concorde and the Tunnel precisely when we deigned to cooperate. Other nations may compete or clash, but they lack our delicious, centuries-honed intimacy. It's knowing that we alone are permitted to tease and prod one another, because beneath the froideur beats the certain knowledge that when the world truly turns dark, the English and the French will, with maximum grumbling, stand shoulder to shoulder once more.
What fantastic news from Hungary. Proof that if you stand up to it right wing kleptocratic populist authoritarianism can be beaten. Orban will now flee somewhere with his wealth. But this is more than a bad night for him. It is a bad night for Putin who as in Moldova spent a fortune trying to rig it. It is a bad night for Trump. It is a bad night for Vance and Rubio who believed that their mere presence in Budapest would swing the vote Orban’s way. They helped Magyar! . It is a bad night for Farage the AfD and Le Pen because it shows that when their brand of politics is exposed to serious opposition and scrutiny it collapses. Magyar is far from the perfect leader but my God he deserves all the congratulations coming his way for ousting Orban and showing how it can be done. He now has the tough job of dismantling the corrupt systems and bodies installed over 16 years. The people of Hungary deserve our thanks for showing these people can be beaten. And Zelensky now deserves far greater support from Europe.

A true disaster
main difference between americans and europeans is that americans think money and net worth are the ultimate status and intelligence signal
while europeans view it as more cross-domain and dependent on a mix of art, aesthetic, philosophy, and so on
this is why we have such a conflict between how the two different continents choose their idols
young americans desperately idolize people like Elon, Trump, Silicon Valley tech moguls, and anyone who achieves billionaire status, as if their word is law
young europeans can’t stand them, doesn’t matter how much money Elon gets, europeans will never respect or like him, because he doesn’t embody the european standard for what is seen as a great man - he is no philosopher, he is no artist, he is no scientist, thus he doesn’t measure up in any meaningful way to the historical european greats, despite how much wealth and resources he may hoard
this disconnect in evaluating masculine competence and what defines the admirable traits of man is what creates the greatest conflict between european men and american men
we simply don’t respect american men intellectually, and probably never will
and they can’t stand that
they can’t stand that europeans won’t be bootlickers like them
they can’t stand that europeans have a rich deep soul that requires deep stimulation in order to recognise greatness
they can’t stand it because it reveals the underlying truth that americans don’t have a soul
it reveals the truth beneath the floorboards, the soulless fast food culture of america, the culture of strip mall churches and hyper slop
they can’t stand that europeans hold a mirror to their face and show americans what ugly creatures they actually are
You IDIOTS elected a conman to presidency, not once but twice, and now look at you. Can’t afford gas, farms going bankrupt, masked men shooting Americans in the streets, and your kids are dying in Iran to distract from the EPSTEIN Files. While his family makes BILLIONS. DUMBASSES
Conan: This is the first year since 2012 no British actors have been nominated for Best Actor or Best Actress.
UK: Yeah, well at least we arrest OUR pedophiles. BOOM! 💥💥💥

Strong support in the UK, Canada, New Zealand and Australia for a CANZUK deal to allow free flow of goods, services, professionals, and capital.
Now is the time.
Hey White House, please remove the Tropic Thunder clip. We never gave you permission and have no interest in being a part of your propaganda machine. War is not a movie.
Life is fucking electric bro. Don’t fall for the doomer shit. That’s for losers and normies scared of their own shadows. Walk around like God sent you and smile at everyone you see. Spread light and abundance. Build things and take chances. This is the best time in history!
A UN vote on a lasting peace in Ukraine and we abstained. Go figure. The Russian Federation was against the proclamation. Is not four years of war enough? Is not missing children, shelling of cities and the killing of innocents enough? It is not a business deal-it is war.
Putin said that plans are in place for the TurkStream and Blue Stream gas pipelines in the Black Sea to be destroyed by Ukraine.
He says this because it terrifies him because it will cripple the last of Russian gas exports. He says this because he thinks that people give a fuck if we collapse the Russian economy.
He also stated nuclear components are also being considered for use against Russia.
He says this because he’s a fucking paranoid idiot and he’s also trying to use the nuclear narrative to scare the world about a nuclear apocalypse. No one talks about Nukes other than Russia because the treat of them is the only power they have left.
The reason why he’s giving these speeches is because Ukraine has him on his fucking knees and he’s scrambling to not only stop losing the war which he has been doing for the past 4 years, but to also save Russia and his life, he knows when he loses this war his head in on a chopping block.
Fuck Putin And Fuck Russia.
you're telling me you're strong enough to battle your way through a medieval penalty box to try and get a header away but when it's the other box and you're a bit uneasy your legs cannot handle all the gravity
Hi, I live in Hungary, and I can safely say we have many thousands of Asian migrants, our infrastructure sucks, housing prices raised by around 200-300% since 2010 and Fidesz are pedophiles.
Also, Sonic the Hedgehog ain't in Budapest. Stop looking for him here, Eggman.
The thing Keir Starmer cannot say:
"Of course I knew the man had sinister secret ties to Jeffrey Epstein. That's why I chose him. The job was to protect Britain from the madness of President Caligula. Epstein connections are a bona fide job qualification for that mission."
2.1 million relationships, 1.5 million nodes from the Epstein files are now in a 3d graph to explore connections and export data.
nodes are up to 3 layers deep, 13,800 orgs linked, 38,000 people
