This is one of the most jaw dropping moments of Trump’s presidency. Up there with brainstorming about injecting bleach and shining light up orifices to cure COVID.
Excellent 🧵 on how the Administration's deliberate destruction of U.S. diplomacy is making this war both harder and less likely to achieve its ends (whatever those are).
I made dinner for a Nobel laureate in a trailer in the middle of the desert (macaroni and cheese; he made spaghetti for us the following night).
The breathtaking stupidity of saying "we destroyed their nuclear capabilities" a few months ago only to pivot to "they were two days from having THE BOMB" is absolutely stunning. They are the Miles Davis of stupid, forever capable of stripping stupid down to its roots and reinventing it.
Calling it: Secretary of State Marco Rubio, the nation's top diplomat, is not very good at diplomacy.
If you’re following the conflict via sm i highly suggest reading this guide on vicarious trauma and ways to minimize it, not explicitly mentioned but v important is not watching stuff in your bedroom and also, if you dont have a professional reason to consume this stuff stop mainlining it
see this is actually a quite good statement
Because of new USPS rules, voters who mail registration forms near the deadline may risk being left off the rolls. One solution: requesting a manual postmark at the retail counter of a post office.
If you were at work today and you got a phone call from your wife that France just blew up your kid's school, your lifelong opinion of France is probably not going to be anything other than "Death to France"

Grammy-nominated R&B singer Jon B. posted that he is going to the stove – perhaps to "cook up" another hot, hot radio single. Frogs and toads, which are the same, can live on the Sun and often choose to.
Hooray!! WHAT a show. Every single episode leaves me like exhausted (good kind)
This is extremely dangerous for those who use wish lists for organization & mutual aid. Please share far & wide.
The Postal Service released one album called GIVE UP and then they gave up and never made another studio album. That is commitment to the bit.
Is there any time, place, or context in which a government hanging enormous banners of the Leader’s face was not a sign of a diseased and authoritarian society? Because I certainly can’t think of one.

These are all adult cops escalating into violence against teenagers. Many of the students are now being held by the cops who assaulted them.
From the Editorial Board: In the endorsement business, it is both rare and heartening to be genuinely excited about a candidate for Congress.
We feel that way about Thomas Fisher, an emergency room doctor at University of Chicago Medicine, a former White House fellow.
Trump has ordered the Treasury to send him $10 billion in cash & $10 billion for a slush fund (on top of the $200 million in cash stolen from Venezuela for another slush fund), on top of $10+ billion gotten from foreign governments in exchange for favors, but do go on about not taking a salary ...
They said it. We’re all thinking it.
This is a sports app now.

gotta do investigations into DHS “waste, fraud and abuse” as pretext for killing the agency
One of my black pill moments was that Biden actually focused on lifting the lowest quartiles up at the expense of the rich and the online left screamed at him about student loan forgiveness.
Doctors say that vaccines protect children from dangerous diseases. A nepo baby who barbecues dogs and snorts cocaine off toilet seats says that vaccines make children vulnerable to 5G radiation. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.
Trump posted a video depicting the first Black president and his wife as apes and his excuse for this is that it's a riff on The Lion King, a movie that does not feature any apes. Somehow this was a one-day story and we've already moved on.
The Border Patrol agents lied. They always lie. And they lie to destroy other people's lives for fun.

"Deux morts, des milliers de personnes arrêtées, deux villes ébranlées et Donald Trump défait. Ainsi s’achève l’opération anti-immigration « Metro surge », conduite par l’Etat fédéral dans les « twin cities », les villes jumelles de Minneapolis et Saint Paul, depuis début décembre. Tom Homan, le « tsar des frontières » de la Maison Blanche, a annoncé jeudi 12 février le retrait prochain des troupes de l’ICE (Immigration and customs enforcement, la police de l’immigration) et de la CBP (Customs and border protection, l’équivalent des douanes)."
How Trump's withdrawal from Minneapolis is being covered abroad.
In Le Monde, the lead French daily, the homepage article starts with:
"Two people dead, thousands arrested, two cities shaken, and Donald Trump defeated."
