So after tonight’s big breakthrough we are $30-60 billion poorer from a month of war, all the same nuclear material is in Iran’s hands, and now you have to coordinate with their military to transit the Strait (not necessary a month ago). An enormous blunder, in no way a “deal.”
SECRETARY RUBIO: Imagine if instead of spending billions of dollars supporting terrorists or weapons, Irans had spent that money helping the people of Iran. They would have had a much different country.
objectively the funniest critique an american could level at another country
The world was not privy to the widespread horrors of The Holocaust as it was happening. This is happening in broad daylight and no one is stopping them!
WHY IS NO ONE STOPPING THEM.
"No to war... and free Palestine"

“But, as you see, it's a beautiful day, the Strait of Hormuz is open and people are having a wonderful time.”
These guys are constantly telling on themselves that they can’t imagine anyone acting on an actual principle. Protesters? Must be getting paid. Bishops noticing that Jesus had some thoughts on welcoming the stranger? Gotta be a payday in there.
"a guy who believes in Trump's war also believes that being interviewed by Isaac Chotiner will go well for him" is in and of itself a data point against the war
Yep. When Iranian generations grow up hating US, just like generations of many other middle east countries citizens where we kill in the name of "democracy" (aka colonialism), that hatred is human.
This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t
The phrase “preemptive strike” is as insulting as when we were sold “humanitarian pauses” in the middle of a live-streamed genocide. The powerful looking you straight in the face and telling you your common sense simply doesn’t matter.
I cannot tell you how much doubt was consistently directed at the Gaza Health Ministry’s casualty numbers and how much pressure was put on news organizations to couch those numbers as unreliable.
Biden himself said they were fabricated!

Man who works in sewer wonders why there's all this shit down here.
The movie ends, Rob stands up, and Frank braces himself for the double-barreled shotgun blast. Rob walks up, tears all over his face, and says, quietly, "It's the best film Castle Rock has ever released. Good work." And then he left.
Class. Fucking. Act.
Rob Reiner was a capital-M Mensch. #RIP
This entire grift relies on convincing people that they don't know how to do the things they have always known how to do, and ironically, if it works, we will, in a very short amount of time, forget how to do all the things we have always known how to do.

"The 'ceasefire' is a diplomatic sham – a cover for the continuing extermination, displacement and erasure of the Palestinian people in Gaza and a distraction for the international public and the media."

new euphemism for "fact" dropped, today's is "scientific orthodoxy"
Did we check with Dem Senate leadership on this? Because, bear with me because this is some deep thinking, if we end same-sex marriage, voters in '26 will remember who did it and that could help us. How about if we nullify gay marriage in exchange for a floor vote on legalizing it? Just spitballing!
And in that pause between pitch and contact - longer than logic, shorter than hope - we remembered why baseball existed long before we judged a sport's value by viral moments and betting apps. It is the romance of failure. The mortal beauty of trying and missing seven times out of 10 and still being considered great. It is the only sport where patience is a weapon, and panic the surest death. You cannot simply run out the clock in baseball; you must face it, pitch by terrifying pitch, until it finally releases you.
Did not expect one of the best paragraphs I’d read about baseball would come from an Irish newspaper

The ceasefire continues according to virtually every media outlet. Israel is demolishing entire neighbourhoods in Gaza to make sure Palestinians never go back.
The genocide is ongoing
so what's in the news today
It’s also been so amazing to watch liberals go from dismissing protestors and the calls for Biden to pressure Israel to end its genocide to now blaming those people for the Dems losing the election. And somehow the party that was sponsoring the event and watching it cost them has no responsibility.
It's really simple
Voters want an opposition party that will fight for them, and democracy, like there's no tomorrow
Dem elites want a members-only social club where polite, dues-paying members who they like to see at cocktail parties get rewarded with plum roles www.politico.com/news/2025/10...
Joe Biden said without Israel, Jewish people wouldn't be safe.
Israeli officials just dragged an American Jewish man to his knees, made him take a photo op with the Israeli flag, and yelled in his face and called him a terrorist
