Trump Is Said to Be in Talks to Send Afghans Who Aided U.S. Forces to Congo

This is monstrous. Just profoundly shameful behavior by our government.

everyone with real American manliness and a basic knowledge of military history knows that serious war efforts have never been derailed by such trifling matters as "communicable diseases"

Alex Jones reaping is so much more enjoyable compared to Alex Jones sowing. Well done, @bencollins.bsky.social

Gonna spend the next two years spamming every elected Dem about the concept of "damnatio memoriae." Chisel his name off every inscription. Build over the various Trump Towers like they're Nero's Golden House. Remove him from physical memory, not to forget but as a sign of disrespect to the man.

i dont understand, 2 days ago i was told there was a deal, i was told it was over and we got everything we wanted, i was told the strait would never be closed again, i was told all this just as markets were hitting their stride on friday afternoon

"For I have seen the Throne of the Gods, and it was empty!”

Be sure to read the whole thing.

Oh sorry, so religion and politics should be separate? Is that what you're saying? bsky.app/profile/atru...

Nothing calculated or “distracting” about how he operates. He is simply that narcissistic, that impulsive, that drunk on power. We don’t need some grand, unifying political theory to explain sociopathy to future generations. And a responsible Congress would’ve impeached AND removed him by now.

I know BlueSky dislikes David Brooks but it was his 2017 line that gave me the clearest framework for Trump the political figure:

“…the vast analytic powers of the entire world are being spent trying to understand a guy whose thoughts are often just six fireflies beeping randomly in a jar.”

👇🎯 And a central reason why is ignoring, attacking, withdrawing from, & directly violating the terms of thr international treaties & institutions specifically designed to signal credibility & strengthen the credibility of commitments.

A series of posts from journalist Mark Chadbourn reporting on the acceptance speech of Péter Magyar after Hungarian elections: Péter Magyar: "Our country wants to live again. It wants to be a European country again." Mark Chadbourn• @chadbourn.bsky.social • 24m Magyar's speech is powered. From a contact in the audience: "He's basically just asked all the puppets, all the supreme justices, all the heads of media, all the heads of the ministries to leave their jobs tomorrow and not wait to be fired." •.. Mark Chadbourn• @chadbourn.bsky.social • 22m He's announced that Hungary will join the European Prosecution Office so anyone in the country can be charged. Mark Chadbourn• @chadbourn.bsky.social • 21m Magyar: "No mercy, they will need to take responsibility for all their actions." ... Mark Chadbourn• @chadbourn.bsky.social • 20m Magyar says he's starting work with the EU and NATO immediately. "The EU doesn't have to worry anymore."

From new Hungarian Prime Minister Péter Magyar's acceptance speech tonight. This is the absolute BARE MINIMUM platform for any Democrat running for President in 2028.

Current status of the Strait of Hormuz dispute

The fact that this isn’t an Administration-ending scandal, in and of itself, is astounding.

I don't remember seeing an image of Earth before that captures the (thin, fragile, tiny layer of) atmosphere so clearly. I mean, look at that.

Impossible to disagree with a single word that Ben Rhodes (Obama era NSC official) is saying here:

$2 million per ship — to cross a Strait that was free six weeks ago.

Is it an FCC violation to quote the president verbatim? Asking for a friend

Constitutional lawyer here. I don't think it would violate the Constitution for the VP/Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment, but the intended constitutional remedy for this behavior is impeachment & removal. The fact that that remedy is politically impossible is a scandal and a crisis.
