it is, among other things, incredibly striking to see that roberts was so solicitous of the burden the clean power plan might put on fossil fuel executives, when, a decade later, he is indifferent to the way trump’s moves have thrown hundreds of thousands of lives into turmoil.
Seems like the Strait of Hormuz is only open when the stock market is.
The Atlantic journalist, Sarah Fitzpatrick, who wrote the story on FBI Director Kash Patel and his alleged erratic behavior, paranoia, often being MIA, and excessive drinking, after he threatened to sue her:

Trump just posted this without context, this could mean anything from a rambling press conference to nukes being dropped on Tehran at this point.
This is incredible.
Spoke with President Trump. He told me the conflict should be over in days, not weeks but if no deal is made he’s blowing up the whole country with “very little” off the table. "If happens, it happens. And if it doesn't, we're blowing up the whole country,” he said. I asked if there’s anything off limits. “Very little,” he said.
Again, I don’t see how you can read this as anything other than Trump trying to normalize the idea of using nuclear weapons
This can’t be allowed to continue. It just can’t.
Trump Escalates Threat to Hit Iranian Power Plants After U.S. Rescues Downed Airman President Trump used an expletive-laden social media post to taunt Iranian leaders, saying that the United States would attack if they did not fully reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
Sane-washing thread. Just a handful of choice responses to Trump's "open the fuckin' strait you bastards praise be Allah" Easter message. NYT: 1/
How does Donald Trump keep clinging to life? Well, right now, he desperately want’s to stay alive at least long enough to see Louis C. K. at the Hollywood Bowl.
The 2026 World Cup is shaping up to be the new 1936 Summer Olympics.
Remember that Nigel Farage is Donald Trump's biggest supporter.

This is the sort of insanity Reform want to bring to the United Kingdom.
If the president of the company I work for tweeted what the President of the US tweeted today he would be suspended and fired within a day lol
The Serbia/Austro-Hungarian angle worked in 1914 but now it just feels like lazy writing.
"When asked directly whether he believed the war was justified, he replied, 'I would think under the just war theory, it is not.'"
You think it's bad here?
god he's been in the news nonstop for more than ten years now, it's so exhausting
So galling! The NYT has this excellent story about Trump raving about committing war crimes — but every other article about Iran treats his conduct as if were normal.
Sure, the most influential accounts on X are all right-wing influencers who spew a steady stream of misinformation and hatred, but I'm sure you're not feeling any downstream effects from all of that.
You're just too smart and savvy to be influenced by propaganda, not like literally everyone else.
Elon Musk is now worth over $800 billion.
Tesla reported paying ZERO federal income tax on $5.7 billion of U.S. income in 2025.
Meanwhile, millions of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck and household debt has risen to a record high.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.
If you were wondering whether the President’s weekend bender helped or hurt the long-term interest of American business, futures markets just opened, and delivered their verdict.
CBS’s excuse for why it killed the investigation into CECOT was that it wasn’t original and news-distinctive enough.
If you’re lost behind enemy lines, we will move heaven and earth to try and bring you home alive.
If we can’t do that, we’ll move heaven and earth to bring you home anyway.
That’s the promise, and it’s non-negotiable.
I’ve been worried about the WSO all day. Glad he’s safe.
Today I learned I can read German
Christianity is the biggest, most profitable scam in America.
DOOCY: Congressman, do you want to see the US start hitting civilian infrastructure like the president says?
ISSA: Of course, the president didn't want to do it. He'll do what he has to do. When you take away bridges, you take away the ability for them to transport future weapons.
After Trump took office last year, the US Holocaust Museum quietly removed educational material about American racism from its website and canceled a workshop on the "fragility of democracy," @iriesentner.bsky.social reports. www.politico.com/news/2026/04...
No. No No No NO No No No. Trump is not an unwitting victim of bad advice. He is the president. He is responsible for everything and everyone under his command. He CHOSE his peers.
Guess who didn’t write this post.
Are cis people aware that a large number of UK journalists don't even call us 'trans' any more, they call us 'trans-identifed'?
