So, on this basis, if Iran kills or forces out Trump, they get to pick the successor? Yeah, it is that insane.

BREAKING: The U.S. government must refund all tariffs charged under President Donald Trump's now struck-down IEEPA tariff regime, regardless of whether they filed a suit at the U.S. Court of International Trade seeking a refund, a CIT judge ordered Wednesday. www.law360.com/artic...

Not that Democrats should get cocky (the all-time champs of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory), but so many GOP candidates bailing from Congress has to make you think rank-and-file members know November is going to be a GOP disaster, despite Trump’s efforts to cheat.

This is conduct unbecoming of a US Senator. I feel so deeply betrayed by him as a resident of Pennsylvania who supported him both in the primary and general. He will lose the ‘28 primary (unless he changes party, which I kind of expect).

Nukes. Public executions. I dunno…the list is getting short.

He is averaging 15.1 PPG for his career. Again, there are teams where he fits (not the Bucks, IMO) but it was clear that he wasn’t a fit for BKN — they tried to trade him all offseason and couldn’t get a 2nd Round pick for him.

Or maybe, they noticed Cam doesn’t pass the ball or play defense. He’s a weapon for the right team — a team that needs scoring off the bench. A young team chock full of rookies is not the ideal place for Cam Thomas.

The thing about the U.S. and Israel is that both of their leaders are trying to stay out of prison.

Is Convicted Felon Donald Trump’s super-duper secure SCIF with soft banquet-hall curtains, open air top, unsecured electronic devices, and roving guests located next to the bathroom where the classified documents are stored?

To clarify: I was suggesting that Philadelphia could not support two teams in the 1950 to 1965 era. The Phillies had long been the weaker franchise -- but the 1950 Whiz Kids changed the dynamic, at the same time the A's were kind of floundering.

The attack on Iran is an attempt to keep two guilty, corrupt old men out of prison.

I think if the A’s hadn’t moved, the Phillies would have. Philadelphia probably could not support two teams.

the current position of the US government is that NVIDIA should be allowed to sell chips directly to China but banned from using Claude, because the latter is a larger national security risk. that is the level of absolute insanity coming out of the White House & Pentagon nowadays

The entire Democratic strategy debate — "moderate" or move left? fight or compromise? — is based on a misreading of data. Voters don't think Dems are too progressive; they think Dems are weak. The actual math on what to do about this isn't even close!

According to NBC, Jeanine Pirro has "shelved" the pursuit of Democratic lawmakers over their video informing service members they don't have to follow illegal orders.

BECAUSE. IT. WAS. BS. FROM. THE. START.

I pulled the plug in Nov. 24. Too toxic, too many bots and being forced to see awful content was enough. Been much happier at BlueSky and have had much better interactions.

I can’t I’d the player, but my guess is that he is a minor leaguer and a switch hitter. Dual ear flaps are mandatory in the minors, and the extra flap is worn by players in both minors and big leagues. In MLB, switch hitters have separate, single-flap helmets for hitting R or L.

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing people local newspaper reporters are rarified elites instead of ink-stained wretches driving their Honda Civic to a crime scene so you know don’t have to rely on Nextdoor and the police press release.

Aside from the fact that Elon has the IQ of a wicker basket, he is relentlessly racist and mysogynist (and insanely greedy). He will face consequences someday.

Like, I dunno, you might wanna start asking @theverge.com if they consider it acceptable for one of their writers to be amplifying fascists while peddling antisemitic conspiracies

Has anyone notices that it’s always Trump supporters who are trying to kill him? It’s never Antifa (which basically doesn’t exist) or left wingers — it’s always someone with a red hat disappointed when the lies become too evident for them to ignore.

Thank you to Greenland for providing emergency medical care to a US sailor on board the submarine, since we did not have adequate resources in the area to treat him. I’m sorry that our president felt the need to cover up our shortcomings with a deranged ghost hospital ship post.

A lot of places are about to be bombed in a country far away and a good many people killed because Donald Trump cannot make anyone forget or ignore the accusations of what he did with young girls.

That is now the foreign policy of the United States.

A Norwegian immigrant was arrested at her green card interview.

She’s also insulin-dependent and was denied insulin for 9 days while in detention.

The cherry on top?

“While I was in detention, an agent or guard stole my credit card and started using it WHILE I WAS STILL IN THERE.”

I love how people are cool with Trump being a child rapist — and maybe murderer — and it just doesn't matter to them. Amazing how bad some people are.
