Shoutout to The Atlantic reporters for publishing these massive scoops instead of waiting years to put them in a book.

Magyar Péter (Ne féljetek) * ... @magyarpeterMP 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.

Hungary’s Péter Magyar issues an ultimatum.

This is a snapshot of the failure of MSM and the concomitant ignorance within the American electorate about what is happening in and to their country.

Power without accountability: The Palantir manifesto The problems with our tech philosopher kings

hard pass

Absolutely

we have gotten bits and pieces about the atmosphere at DoL under Chavez-DeRemer so far, that’s why she’s resigning, but after somebody’s gone is when the stories really flow and about two weeks from now we’re going to start getting the craziest most toxic sex shit you’ve ever heard

Too many shirts for an Apple ceo...

Pretty racy stuff in some of that Symposium...

Faculty Defect From Texas Publics, Citing Censorship Fed up with the state’s censoring of Plato, Joan of Arc and Romeo and Juliet, humanities professors are leaving Texas public institutions in pursuit of academic freedom.

'Texas A&M philosophy professor Martin Peterson is leaving the university after administrators told him in January that he couldn’t teach Plato’s Symposium in his philosophy class; they said the ancient Greek philosopher’s work violated the system’s restrictions on gender and sexuality content.' 1/3

I mean, it's hard to see how refunds to the consumer would even be logistically feasible in most cases. "I'd like a rebate on the markup on a meal I ate six months ago attributable to tariffs on several of the ingredients..."

She's not "stepping down".

She got her sorry ass fired.

I shall, grasshoooper...I shall

This is just to ask

How does one do that?
because I do not want

I think before you build an Arc de Triomphe you should be able to identify at least un (1) triomphe

"Some analysts say..." should be replaced with "everyone knows..."

Right?

Why is this difficult?

Why is this guy worthy of any attention whatsoever?

Modern high yield crops on which we depend only produce that yield with several rounds of fertiliser application. A big proportion of that fertiliser can’t get out of the Middle East now. Millions of people are going to starve as a result of Bibi & Trump’s war.

Cancel the White House Correspondents’ Dinner Trump will be guest of honor at the “nerd prom,” with journalists serving as suck-ups

People are urging participants in the White House Correspondents’ Dinner to wear pro-1st Amendment pocket squares or take a bathroom break when “guest of honor” Trump speaks.
I have a better idea: Cancel the damn dinner.

That's um...not at optimistic chart...

That's...impressive

You live in my music brain...

Mike Johnson's district...

Not a dime of taxpayer money or govt contracts should go to Palantir.

The United States is destroying itself | Rebecca Solnit The daily news can’t adequately convey the administration’s sabotaging of our government, economy, alliances and environment

Only US Votes Against Women’s Rights Document At UN Commission - Health Policy Watch President of the UN General Assembly Annalena Baerbock told the opening of CSW that the backlash against women's rights "feels as though we are forced to

For the first time in decades, consensus broke at the UN Commission on the Status of Women. The United States cast the lone “no” vote on a document aimed at improving justice systems for women and girls worldwide. Misogyny is the official policy of the US under Trump.

Also because they never agreed to them anyway....

Iran rejects Trump's alternate reality of peace talks happening tomorrow in Pakistan, due to "excessive demands, unrealistic expectations, constant shifts in stance, repeated contradictions, and the ongoing naval blockade," says IRNA news agency.
