I had the opportunity to confront Pete Hegseth's bigoted spiritual mentor, Pastor Doug Wilson, and call him out on his history of hate, his misreading of the Bible, his hijacking of Jesus, and his cosplay Crusading.
It was worth it.
Refreshing to see someone tell it as it is.
This is what all main stream media should be doing every single day.
Kevin Warsh just lost me. He argues he's going to be an independent Fed Chair, but refuses to acknowledge that Trump lost the 2020 election. If you can't state simple facts when you're in the political spotlight, you aren't independent. You're a coward.
The Strokes concluded their Coachella 2026 Weekend Two set with a visual montage of world leaders targeted in CIA-backed regime change campaigns over the decades, alongside footage of universities in Iran and Gaza that U.S. and Israel have bombed and destroyed. They ended with the track "OBLIVIUS," from their 2016 EP Future Present Past, with lyrics that include: And we take What we hide from them And then say "What do you want from me?" Don't wait so long Way too long They wait too long I can't stay awake too long You never wait for some Other generation I'll wait somewhere Alone, get it in your head What side you stand on?\What side you standing on? What side you stand on? What side you standing on?

The idea that every social problem needs a technical solution is so myopic. If you're worried about the smarts of the population, why not just fund public education? And if you're worried about Skynet, maybe try regulating the AI industries...
“The UN can’t stay silent watching what’s happening in the world. Trump invades Iran and bean prices spike in Brazil, corn prices rise in Mexico, gas prices rise elsewhere. It’s the poor who pays for recklessness of wars that nobody wants”
— Lula da Silva, president of Brazil
The psychology of FOMO in tech sales is fascinating — our brains literally short-circuit when we think we're missing "the next big thing." Revolutionary tech whispers; scams always shout.
Way to prove your point 😂
1/ Less than 24 hours before broadcast, the BBC called me and said: we're editing a line out of your lecture. The line? That Donald Trump is the most openly corrupt president in American history.
Over 80% of people want a wealth tax for billionaires. Of course they’re resisting with their army of lawyers and lobbyists, but we’re building ours.
I’m so excited to be teaming up with @gabrielzucman.bsky.social 👉
One down, three to go. #hope
Glad someone says it out loud. Nice photos though.
See, the thing about ceasefire agreements is that you actually need to cease fire. That’s the most important part. Anyone can make a “ceasefire agreement” *writes vaguely on a piece of paper in space*, but the key thing is to CEASE firing.

Summary: Sam Altman is shown a viral video of someone asking ChatGPT (in voice mode) to time a run. Even though they stop after just a few seconds, the response is that the run was 10 minutes. [cont.]
Listen closely to what far-right figures are now saying about immigration, and you will find few differences from the xenophobic debates of the 1920s. www.hatecomestomainstreet.com/p/in-far-rig...
US is not a kingdom or a one-ruler regime. If you have been elected, you have a duty.
Where are you.
I feel sick to my stomach waiting around to see what atrocity Trump has in mind for the people of Iran this evening. It's hard to fathom our other elected leaders aren't able to check him in any meaningful way. It's an indictment not just of voters but of our whole system. We're ruled by a mad king.
The world desperately needs some good news.
A reminder that E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G he does is a distraction from the sex crimes he, if there is justice, will be imprisoned for.

Excellent discussion from two retired JAG lawyers: Trump's tweet—if followed through—would amount to the most serious war crimes—and thus the president’s statements place servicemembers in a profoundly challenging situation. As former uniformed military lawyers who advised targeting operations, we
If I were in Trump's Cabinet, I would spend Easter calling constitutional lawyers about the 25th Amendment.
This is completely, utterly unhinged. He's already killed thousands. He's going to kill thousands more.
Sorry, which side is supposed to be religious zealots here, someone remind me.
