Someone should tell Iran to issue a statement confirming they will only negotiate a peace settlement with Obama.

one of the ways the mid to late 20th century political world has distorted the historical memories of even sophisticated observers is in the idea that you can achieve major transformations of american political life through something like bipartisan consensus

The energy we need to send fascism back into hiding.

The right gambled, tried to rig the election, lost, and now it’s excuses and tears.

Thanks for everything, Virginia. 🙏🏽

One of the most telling pics of the year ... so far.

They think you're stupid.

Wishing this fabulously competent—and joyful—crew a safe return to a planet that, frankly, doesn't deserve them.

The primary energy fallacy is the idea that all primary energy from fossil fuels must be replaced with equivalent amount of clean energy.

BUT: Not necessary because conversion losses don’t need to be replaced. 2/3 of all primary energy is lost as waste heat. knowledge.energyinst.org/new-energy-w...

i'm surprised by how low energy and farcical that whole military parade situation was. I was expecting Moscow 1945 and we got Spirit Halloween instead.

Trump looking absolutely inconsolable at his fascist-themed 79th birthday party which no one turned up to other than those who had to because he's their boss.

Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

He only cares about the photo op, the sound bites that will repeat incessantly on fox news, and the fawning press coverage in the moment. He doesn't care about what happens afterward.

And probably cheated his entire way thru undergrad. Probably paid people to do his work and take his exams

So he thinks that he's "fixing the trade deficit" (which is NOT a problem btw) by decreasing trade? What a fkn moron

He's so exhaustingly stupid.

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A “TRADE DEFICIT”—IT’S JUST CALLED “BUYING THINGS.” YOU DO NOT HAVE A TRADE DEFICIT WITH YOUR DENTIST JUST BECAUSE HE NEVER BUYS ANYTHING FROM YOU.

Again, worth at the last considering the possibility that he’s a malevolent idiot who has no idea what he’s doing.

Pete Hegseth is a f*cking liar. This is so clearly classified info he recklessly leaked that could’ve gotten our pilots killed.

He needs to resign in disgrace immediately.

Well, they lied. Obviously.

The latest from an award winning Canadian Political Cartoonist Andy Donato.

AP Reporter: "Why is Trump prioritizing tariffs over tax cuts?" White House Press Sec. Karoline Leavitt: "Tariffs are a tax cut for the American People." Reporter: "Have you ever paid a tariff, because I have." Leavitt: "I think it's insulting that you're trying to test my knowledge of economics."

Freeland: "If these tariffs are put in place, it is going to hurt Americans ... your grocery prices are gonna go up, bc you know what you need to grow food in the US? You need fertilizer. 80% of it comes from Canada and you're gonna be a 25% tax on it? ... the WSJ is right. This is dumb."

We warned you.....

Project 2025 is a recipe for disaster: decimating education funding, abandoning vulnerable students, and handing tax cuts to the wealthy.

Dont Defund Public Schools

Leaders of the free world stand united in London

The United States is not among them

EU to Trump on tariffs: Go ahead, make our day. The European Union said on Thursday it was ready to deploy its strongest trade weapon against the U.S. after President Donald Trump threatened to impose sweeping tariffs and scorned the EU as having been created to “screw” America.

Maddow: That has never happened at this scale in this way before when it comes to programing changes, presumably because it's not the right way to treat people and it kind of drops the bottom out of whether or not people feel like this is a good place to work

Gov. Mills: I’ll comply with the state and federal laws

Trump: We are the federal law. You better do it because you’re not going to get any federal funds.

Gov Mills: See you in court

This is how it’s done.

TRUMP: The NCAA has complied immediately. That's good. But I understand Maine -- is the governor of Maine here?


JANET MILLS: Yeah I'm here

TRUMP: Are you not gonna comply?

JM: I'm going to comply with state and federal law

T: You better do it bc you're not gonna get any federal funding at all
