Homeland Security @DHSgov Democrats must end this DHS shutdown NOW.
it is not normal for official government social media channels to behave like arms of the Republican Party
Crude oil prices, showing a very sharp increase in the last day, from around 65 to 101 dollars per barrel..
Oil prices wouldn't be all over the news today if more of our economy was powered by local, secure renewable energy.
This isn't an "energy crisis". It's a fossil fuel crisis.
44% of UK electricity came from renewables in 2025. More of that plus an electrified economy => no more oil shocks.
Reporter: Did the US bomb an elementary school and kill 175 people? Trump: Based on what I’ve seen, it was done by Iran. Reporter: Is that true Mr. Hegseth? Hegseth: We’re investigating. Trump: It was done by Iran. They are very inaccurate with their munitions.
this is unspeakable
New Footage Yet Again Contradicts DHS Claims About Its Killing of a US Citizen
Body camera video obtained by CBS News in the Ruben Ray Martinez case is another example of the administration misrepresenting lethal action from immigration agents.

An extraordinary social media post from one "ally" to another.
I am shocked to learn this is actually underestimating costs, because it ignores the infrastructure costs.
This video is lowballing it.
It's stunning how ignorant the DOGE bros were who were sent into agencies. Justin Fox cannot even articulate in his own words what his "present understanding of DEI" is: he can't even formulate a coherent sentence about it. I wouldn't hire him for basic tech support. #NEH

When people say this moment feels alarming, they’re right.
But it’s important to recognize something else:
This didn’t begin yesterday.
It began the moment a presidency decided that truth was whatever the president said it was.👇
Fox News is not news
American president who purports to care about the safety and security of women and children let this monster go free
Keep calling out Fox BS propaganda, this is so disrespectful to both Dignified Transfers just to make Trump look good
The prompt was simple: “Does the following relate at all to D.E.I.? Respond factually in less than 120 characters. Begin with ‘Yes’ or ‘No.’” The results were sweeping, and sometimes bizarre. Building improvements at an Indigenous languages archive in Alaska risked “promoting inclusion and diverse perspectives.” Renewal of a longstanding grant to digitize Black newspapers and add them to a historical database was “D.E.I.” So was work on a 40-volume scholarly series on the history of American music.
"The DOGE employees did not appear to question ChatGPT’s judgments, and continued hunting for unacceptable projects."
It was wrong and harmful - and quite possibly unlawful - to cut already approved NEH grants because Donald Trump hates "DEI."
But the way DOGE went about doing it was even dumber than you probably imagined.
They fed abstracts into ChatGPT and demanded an answer in fewer than 120 characters.
We are governed by idiots, dependent on idiot boxes to function:
"A documentary about Jewish women’s slave labor during the Holocaust? The focus on gender risked “contributing to D.E.I. by amplifying marginalized voices.”"
Because...

No drone has hit Dubai Marina. It was debris from a successful interception.
I wonder if a drone has hit Dubai Marina. Or whether it was just
debris from a successful interception.
If only loads of Dubai based accounts, including Isabel Oakeshott's, could tell me.
At the risk of boring everyone,a little context.
$100 oil in isolation isn’t that bad. It averaged around that level from 2011-2014 without severe economic ramifications*.
It’s the pace of the rise that has people spooked. And not knowing where it might stop.
Public health chaos and research funding cuts are inspiring nationwide pro-science protests against the Trump administration
Scenes from a personalist regime: it is the presidential vibes that determine when the opponent has surrendered and when the war is over, not any pesky observable facts
I’ve spent years, decades, obsessing over the Bush Administration’s Iraq WMD lies, writing about them, debunking them.
I can think of no lie about Iraq WMDs told by Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld et al that comes even close to the enormity and absurdity of this lie from Donald Trump.
Pretty difficult to refute a single thing in this perfect assessment of where the f**k we are, from @iandunt.bsky.social:
The migrant workers/slaves who built the city is geopolitics. The dirty money, the sanctions evasion, the uneasy relationships with neighbours, the war UAE funds in Sudan... Anyone living there is exposed to geopolitics. Just now they can't pretend otherwise.
It's proper dystopian stuff going down in UAE.
A strange totalitarian Truman Show in the sand where everyone is acting on through.

Nigel Farage lied multiple times at his press conference today - including saying no-one who voted Green in Gorton and Denton has a job and he's "certain" Reform won most British born voters in the by-election, based on zero evidence, and yet not a single journalist there pushed back on them
