So we are back to the old “maximum pressure” campaign of his first term after the JCPOA withdrawal, minus even more credibility and a lot of munitions, plus immense human suffering, the Strait as a new problem, and higher incentives for Iran to go nuclear.
Humiliation, maybe escalation later.
Unbelievable
Vance Says the Pope Should Be More Careful When Talking About Theology www.nytimes.com/2026/04/14/u...
There's an emerging ideological divide over whether unexplained #SCOTUS rulings must be given precedential effect. Today's "One First" argues that there's nothing "conservative" about saying "yes"; it's just cover for bad behavior that has nothing to do with ideology—and everything to do with power:
on CNBC Trump blasts Pope Leo for criticism of U.S. foreign policy 54 minutes ago CNN Trump says Pope Leo is 'terrible for foreign policy' 33 minutes ago Breaking News AP AP News Trump lambasts Pope Leo XIV, extending feud over Iran war with first.. 1 hour ago ^ Axios Trump unleashes tirade against "weak," "terrible" Pope Leo 31 minutes ago New York Post Trump blasts Pope Leo after pontiff's veiled jabs over Iran war,... 44 minutes ago.
Rather than treat Trump’s comments about Pope Leo as deranged, embarrassing and offensive to (many) Catholics, early headlines (and stories) paint it as Trump just bashing back against a political opponent. Truly broken media environment.
We all get to witness the social media bullshit economy that financially rewards hateful and extreme discussion.
Donald Trump just posted a video of Somali people enjoying the Mall of America to the soundtrack of “Mad World” because he is a bigoted POS
The word unsubstantiated is missing in reference to the “viral video.”
Today is a good day to read the paper.

40% of officially-counted homeless people have jobs. And that's before we get to the millions who are rendered invisible, who are never counted at all.
Wyoming Has One University. Can It Survive Its Own Legislature?
The state’s flagship dodged a $40-million cut but not the bigger questions it raised.

I think many people say similar things about him
Perhaps that speech was not a good idea.
Two-year-old Kaleth is being locked away at the Dilley trailer prison. He is getting sicker with each passing day. He will not eat the food CoreCivc serves, which detainees have said sometimes has mold and worms. He now has a fever.
Gift Article - “It is the activities of the three lesser-known Trump allies mentioned in the Danish news report, though, that seem to have most alarmed the Danes. Asked about the three men, the White House declined to comment…”

The Minnesota Star Tribune has done a wonderful job this year. Much of its reporting has been through photojournalism. Photos tell a story.
Cori Bush is running to reclaim her old seat. And like the left populist she is, she simply cannot admit that people rejected her and her message. I'd just love for some populist on the left or right to admit that they lost their election fair & square.
A month into Iran, the GOP’s political reality sinks in
Republicans in battleground states are largely sticking by the president's war — but they’re finding it harder to brush off the consequences.

NEW: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has been transforming a government that long championed vaccines into one that questions their safety.
This is what could happen over the next 25 years if shots are unavailable even to the people who want them.
One of my biggest griefs about the ongoing destruction of American journalism is it's such a thrill to read about someone's life. No amount of hot takes or superficial "content" compensates for that loss. Susan Du shows how to do it expertly in this story: www.startribune.com/how-ice-deta...

The Trubio Doctrine: Military power, no allies, no diplomacy, no planning

I know our expectations for this administration are in the basement but it is INSANE they started a war without a plan for the Strait of Hormuz.

II guess it is war again
Yeah Trump pardoned Cuellar on bribery charges so Trump could bribe him
