Coda: I've wondered if the fact that the fascists currently running the global hegemon are obsessed with a warrior ethos but also make literally all the mistakes that Sun Tzu identified, basically they're just the kind of failsons he was warning against, might make people appreciate Art of War more.
Inviting Trump to speak was a really big mistake by the mainstream media.

I assume that my Albemarle County people will put us over the top.
For decades, I was gerrymandered into being represented by some GOP choad. Change it, Commonwealth.
It's right up there on the masthead.
There is nothing that Trump won't do for his billionaire bribers. Including destroying evidence of America's absolutely unique indigenous culture. This is a criminal act against world culture.

I know that I have done everything for my Zizou. My wife, who loves the dog very much, tells me that I'm just about the only person who would be dedicated enough to him to save him. And, when his time comes, I'll still feel like I was the lucky one, and it probably won't help me.
We truly feel you.
This is some racist MAGA shit passed off as protecting Americans from undesirable people, ones who who trusted us. These Afghans are not "the worst of the worst" and, anddoes anyone still pretend that tossing violent criminals out was ever the point of Trump's promises? It's about whitening the USA.
Looks to me it's perfectly ready for Jeff to take a space ride.
Anyway, I thought that one gave away certain aspects of "freedom" when one signed on to the armed forces, though the freedom to drink on the job seems to be observed.
Washington himself survived smallpox during his single overseas trip, when he accompanied his tubercular brother to Barbados. He decidedly knew the risks.
Technically, "inoculated" using a live virus harvested from an infected person's pock then introduced into an incision in the skin of the patient. This method is much more invasive than a vaccine since the patient actually suffered smallpox, just one hoped to be mild.
Jon Husted on Trump's Iran war: "This is good news for the global economy"
I will happily vote this November to throw this empty suit out of office.
Great. In order to land, aircraft will be required to throw out women and persons of color on final approach.
Fractures Emerge Between GOP’s Pro-Pedophilia, Extremely Pro-Pedophilia Wings
I haven't held an infant in years but if someone offered me the chance I'd be happy to do it. Weird generalizations.
I'm certainly not opposed to punishing these soldiers, but it is hard not to notice that they're facing harsher punishment than IDF soldiers who committed document war crimes against human civilians. www.cnn.com/2026/04/21/m...

As a Virginian-in-exile, I urge current residents of the Commonwealth to MESS WITH TEXAS.
He has a point. Our mistake was turning our Cold War foreign policy over to the best and the brightest instead of trusting it to the worst and most moronic.
Was it paid in crypto?
Almost everything we argue about is a substitute for the thing we should be arguing about: the immense wealth & power of an oligarchic class, which captures governments, ruins lives and wrecks the living planet.
This class redirects our rage at scapegoats. To resist its lies is to resist its power.
A screenshot of a post on X (formerly Twitter) by Magyar Péter (Ne féljetek), with the handle @magyarpeterMP. The post reads: "Until 31 May, the Orbán puppets may voluntarily step down from their positions. This applies to the President of Hungary, the President of the Curia, the President of the National Office for the Judiciary, the President of the Constitutional Court, and the Prosecutor General. On 12 April, the Hungarian people voted for a complete political transformation. If these officials do not step down voluntarily by 31 May, then — on the basis of the mandate received from millions of Hungarians — we will remove them from office." At the bottom, the timestamp reads "3:04 AM • Apr 21, 2026" alongside "19.9K Views".
Peter Magyar is not playing around at all. He's going to purge every single remnant of corrupt Orbanism. This is exactly how Dems need to be when they retake power.
If only...
All that Law School and not a single lawyer thought to file a copyright.
In the article, a senior Hungarian government official likenes Rod's importance to that of Napoléon.
I am not joking.
ICE detained the wife of an active-duty U.S. Army Sgt. First Class after she showed up for an immigration appointment in 📍 El Paso—then still threatened removal despite legal protections.
Her husband (27 years active duty) said it plainly: ICE is out of control.
