Guess they're to figure out how to get the senator out of legal repercussions before letting him have access to a lawyer who can initiate those repercussions.

To be clear, I don't think they are bombing Iran to let Russia sell oil to India, but I definitely think they are happy to capitalize on the opportunity.

I've felt that way about far too many American food products to agree with you absent evidence.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent
@SecScottBessent
President Trump’s energy agenda has resulted in oil and gas production reaching the highest levels ever recorded.

To enable oil to keep flowing into the global market, the Treasury Department is issuing a temporary 30-day waiver to allow Indian refiners to purchase Russian oil. This deliberately short-term measure will not provide significant financial benefit to the Russian government as it only authorizes transactions involving oil already stranded at sea.

India is an essential partner of the United States, and we fully anticipate that New Delhi will ramp up purchases of U.S. oil. This stop-gap measure will alleviate pressure caused by Iran’s attempt to take global energy hostage.

So American and Israeli fascists are killing hundreds if not thousands of people and conveniently manufacturing an energy crisis to justify letting Russian fascists re-enter the global market by providing oil to Indian fascists. Cool.

Friends, it’s a cult. MAGA is a cult. Pleaseβ€”for God’s sake, after a decadeβ€”accept this.

Accept it, internalize it, and then decide what you think America should do.

And as you think about that, think about all the other cults you’re aware of, what they did, and how they ended.

This thread is not about whether Platner is a Nazi. It’s about how he lies like a toddler when he’s cornered. And that’s enough. He’s not electable, and Susan Collins knows it. You can too, if you can read this thread, or this 18-page document. 2/

Let’s talk about Graham Platner’s Big Lie, finally. In 2009, at the height of the Gulf War, the Marines barred him from active duty. Platner claims it was his forearm tattoos. But his one forbidden tattoo was the Nazi symbol on his chest. He knew - and he left the Marines rather than give it up. 1/

Claude is not Data or C-3PO committing war crimes in a fictional universe. Claude is an advanced LLM used by evil folks with power to enhance their cyborgic capabilities.

Shout out to Dr. Miles’ work on youth cyborgic literacies in Detroit. I was his dissertation chair & I learned so much from him.
