It turns out firing a lot of the federal workforce who lives in Northern Virginia was a bad move

A group of Ecuadorian fishermen survived a US drone strike, were detained at gunpoint, hooded, 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.”

Tucker Carlson: I'II be tormented for a long time by the fact that I played a role in getting Donald Trump elected. We're implicated in this. I misled people.

It'd sure be nice if Kamala Harris' campaign organization wouldn't constantly promote Tucker Carlson, Alex Jones, Megyn Kelly, and whatnot. But oh well.

Exclusive: ICE Glasses Homeland Security is making “smart glasses” to collect intelligence on Americans

I love Jupiter so much.

BREAKING: A Closer Look at the King of Planets. 🪐🛰️

NASA has just released a new perspective of Jupiter so sharp it’s almost impossible to comprehend. Those intricate, marble-like swirls aren't just clouds—they are colossal storms, many of which could swallow Earth whole. 🌍🌪️

“In a conflict like Sudan where women’s bodies are the battleground (GBV, lack of SRHR, acute malnutrition), how are we supposed to work when ‘gender’ has been erased from our vocabulary.” Powerful remarks by MSF at @humconberlin.bsky.social SRHR session.

During the peak of COVID, a number of parents learned or re-learned that teaching is difficult. But this has had no lasting impact. Hasn't translated to calls to increase teacher pay, for example.

WARSH: The broad contours of the economy are improving. The potential of the economy, the real results of the economy are improving.

TINA SMITH: The reality is there was almost 0 job growth in 2025. That looks to me like not a roaring economy, but a weak economy.

Israel escalates attacks on medics in Lebanon with deadly ‘quadruple tap’ Lebanese health ministry says killing of 91 healthcare workers shows ‘total disregard’ for international law

The Israeli army struck civilians in the Lebanese city of Mayfadoun.

And then, the Israelis double-tapped the medics who arrived onto the scene.

And then, they triple-tapped the next wave of medics.

And then, they did it one more time for good measure.

"What we are trying to look at is, how do we use one problem which is water hyacinth to solve the other problem which is plastic waste pollution,” says Joseph Nguthiru.

“We work with fishermen who are affected [by it] and we contract them to harvest the water hyacinth for us.”

Benjamin Netanyahu... @netanyahu X.com As the Jewish state, Israel cherishes and upholds the Jewish values of tolerance and mutual respect between Jews and worshippers of all faiths. All religions flourish in our land and we view members of all faiths as equals in building our society and region. Yesterday, like the overwhelming majority of Israelis, I was stunned and saddened to learn that an IDF soldier damaged a Catholic religious icon in southern Lebanon. I condemn the act in the strongest terms. Military authorities are conducting a criminal probe of the matter and will take appropriately harsh disciplinary action against the offender.

While Christians are being slaughtered in Syria and Lebanon by Muslims, the Christian population in Israel thrives unlike elsewhere in the Middle East. Israel is the only country in the region that the Christian population and standard of living is growing. Israel is the only place in the Middle East that adheres to freedom of worship for all. We express regret for the incident and for any hurt this has caused to believers in Lebanon and around the world. 4:56 AM • 4/20/26 • 1.3M Views

Netanyahu released a statement about the incident claiming he was “stunned and saddened” and referring to the Christ statue as a “Catholic religious icon.”

He released it in English only.

He also claimed “the Christian population in Israel thrives,” when anti-Christian hate crimes are frequent.
