I laughed so hard

Kegseth appears not to know what the flu did to the US Army in 1918-19. And beyond that, he truly is a moron.

Starting a mid-decade redistricting war only to end up with -1 seats is the same fine strategic genius and subtle grasp of game theory that brough us the Strait of Hormuz.

‘We were terrified they were going to kill us’: fishers who survived US boat strike speak out An Ecuadorian fishing crew describe their ordeal as victims of Trump’s purported war on ‘narcoterrorists’

A group of Ecuadorian fishermen survived a US drone strike, were detained at gunpoint, phones wiped, ship blown up, disappeared to El Salvador, then released without charge. “They knew we were fishermen. Even the Salvadorian authorities said things had been handled very badly.”

It’s not even Tuesday!!

I’m not into conspiracy theories but holy hell does this all feel like market manipulation

With a final tally of 213-214, the war powers resolution to disengage US forces from the war on Iran failed by a single vote.

Representative Jared Golden of Maine was the sole Democratic lawmaker to vote against the measure. Had he voted for it, it would have passed, handing Trump an historic loss.

BREAKING: The U.S. bishops’ Committee on Doctrine just issued a formal statement defending Pope Leo XIV's teaching authority on just war doctrine — less than twelve hours after JD Vance told a Turning Point USA crowd the pope should “be careful” talking theology.

This is a serious escalation.

Exposing a global ‘online rape academy’ that is teaching men how to abuse women and evade detection CNN exposes an online network of men encouraging each other to drug and assault their partners, and swap tips on how to get away with it.

CNN exposes a global “online rape academy” that teaches men how to drug and rape women without detection. Over 62 million men attended in February alone.

it’s rather infamously not an actual quote from the Bible

She was granted withholding of removal from India *decades* ago, and had been living and working legally (including for the U.S. government!) ever since.

But with third country removals now a real option, TSA shared her data with ICE and they arrested her at the airport on her way to a job.

That the president dictates American policy is perhaps the most honest thing JD has ever said.

How to Prevent 9 Million Deaths Rich countries must understand foreign aid can actually be popular—if people see the results.

A recent study estimated that another 9 million-plus people, including 2.5 million children, could die as a result of cuts in aid.

Supreme Court of the United States MARKWAYNE MULLIN, SECRETARY, DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY, et al., Petitioners, v. DAHLIA DOE, et al., Respondents. DONALD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, et al., v. FRITZ EMMANUEL LESLY MIOT, et al., Petitioners, Respondents. On Writs of Certiorari Before Judgment to the United States Courts of Appeals for the SeCOnd Circuit and the District of Columbia Circuit BRIEF OF ECONOMISTS AS AMICI CURIAE IN SUPPORT OF RESPONDENTS

SUMMARY OF THE ARGUMENT Terminating Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for nationals of all designated countries would elimi- nate employment opportunities for American workers, reduce growth and income opportunities for American businesses, and harm the very public interests the Government aims to serve. The Government’s defense of terminating TPS turns in part on claims about na- tional interest, resource strain, and public safety that are economically and empirically false. The record and every credible source of data show that ending TPS for these populations would not relieve pressure on U.S. communities or strengthen the national econ- omy—it would inflict massive harm.

The US Administration has ended deportation protections for nationals of 13 countries so far.

Writing as lead amicus, I join with three Nobel laureates and 16 other leading economists to assess the impact of these actions on the US economy, in a new brief for the Supreme Court. CC @piie.com

It also turns out the boats strikes in the Caribbean were a direct precursor to boat strikes in the Persian Gulf.

Pete Hegseth Is Trying to Resegregate the Military “Color-blind and merit-based” now seems to be anything but.

As the Pentagon purges some minorities and women from high-ranking positions, the message being sent to lower-ranking officers is that “they will be assessed on the basis of their gender, race, or politics, rather than their abilities,” Adam Serwer writes:

Spotted this AM: a black MAGA hat…. Trying to not be as conspicuous?

Magyar mindenkit megnyugtatott, hogy ma megjelent Szijjártó Magyar közölte: azt az információt kapta, hogy sokan úgy vélték, eltűnt Szijjártó Péter, hiszen nem lehetett látni Orbán vasárnapi beszédén, majd megnyugtatott mindenkit, ma megjelent Szijjártó Péter....

Hungary's prime minister elect Péter Magyar says that Orbán's FM Péter Szijjártó, who had vanished after tapes of his obsequious phone calls with Russian FM Sergei Lavrov surfaced, has reappeared at the Foreign Ministry today, where he was seen feverishly shredding documents.

Hungarian opposition ousts Viktor Orbán after 16 years in power Péter Magyar’s Tisza party wins election as prime minister concedes defeat, in result likely to reshape ties with EU

Know what Orbán did when he knew he lost? He congratualted the winner. Just saying.

Am I the only one wondering what drove Adam to the point where this needed to be declared?

wild to actually think "it would be safer to fight in the octagon" but that is the proper response to the counteroffer of modeling for someone prominently featured in the Epstein files
