Trump has agreed to end the war in Iran if Iran agrees to rename the Strait of Hormuz the "Strait of America".

Is Trump’s Strait of Hormuz disaster Biden’s Katrina?

Liberals are always railing against war. So why aren't they celebrating Pete Hegseth's destruction of the U.S. Army from within?

Trump Administration sources say that the president gave Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer 30 days to either stop abusing her office or become a man like Pete Hegseth and RFK, Jr. She did neither and was summarily fired.

I was a lifelong liberal Democrat. Then I learned that Alan Dershowitz was leaving the party to become a Republican.

Doctors say that measles is one of the deadliest and most contagious infectious diseases in the world. A guy who snorts cocaine off toilet seats and cuts penises off raccons says you'll be fine if you drink raw milk and bathe in raw sewage. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

At Atlantic staff meetings, I politely nod after explaining basic things to Conor Friedersdorf. But in my hip-hop heart, I'm like and if you don't know, now you know.

"I was mildly offended by a professor at some conference, so I decided to help the neo-Nazis destroy our education system" is a much too common backstory.

The next six months in Iran will be crucial.

We wanted to understand what nuclear dust is. So we talked to three unemployed Joe Rogan listeners at a Wendy's in Toms River.

Republicans may lose both Congress and the White House in 2028. But if they can cause a long and deep economic downturn, they are likely to return to power in 2030 and 2032.

Trump may have closed the Strait of Hormuz. But it's up to the incoming Democratic president to reopen it.

Liberal men aren't attractive - Katie Miller, wife of nosferatu Stephen Miller

She’s literally married to a Nazi vampire.

For those wondering why NATO exists and why countries want to join the defensive alliance.

Gil Duran tweet: TLDR: Fascism in response to Palantir's long fascists screed on X.

"Your Account is Suspended" Message on X

The CEO of Palantir posted a fascist manifesto on X.

I pointed out that it was fascist—which resulted in a permanent suspension from X (my second time!).

So, when you hear the tweeters complaining that BlueSky is intolerant, remember why many of us came here in the first place.

What a debacle.

For the first time in a while, I feel proud to be an American again.

There should be no place in Congress for people like Nancy Mace.

Expelling Tony Gonzales and Eric Swalwell from Congress could have a chilling effect on future Congressmen's ability to sexually harass their staff members.

When Donnie Met Ali

Trump sent his top gun to Iran to analyze this, but the failure of those meetings of Monsters Inc left city slickers like me sleepless and running scared. Are peace talks D.O.A. or is all this serious moonlight just a prelude to a kiss?

This rules. Every now and then the universe works.

I study racist politicians from the Jim Crow era and this is on par with anything that John Rankin, Theodore Bilbo, or Cotton Ed Smith ever said in public

Russian units now say it themselves:

•shells are running out, •comms are breaking, •coordination is failing.
•Not friction.
•Not temporary.

A system under strain, losing tempo in real time.

Trumpers are stubborn dumbasses.

Bars in Washington, DC had been struggling since Covid. So why are the city’s Democrats so eager to get rid of Pete Hegseth, Kash Patel, and Jeanine Pirro?
