WARREN: That's not my question. Are you refusing to tell us if you have investments in vehicles set up by Jeffrey Epstein?
KEVIN WARSH: Those assets will be sold if I'm confirmed
Cancelling Iran for punching down. Bluesky deserves to be attacked by a peer adversary. Does Tuvalu have beef with the US at the moment?

Possibly record breaking levels of Congressman to attendee ratio at this campaign rally
Every minute the President spends playing video games with you is time that he isn't spending fucking up the world, so thank you for your service
A nationwide warrant has been issued in the first criminal charges against an ICE agent for on-duty actions during the enforcement surge in Minnesota.
This is why I have no patience for Hasan Piker and his I wouldn’t vote for Newsom crap.
And, if Dems were to nominate someone from the Bernie/AOC wing, I’d have no patience for Third Way types complaining.
The anti-Trump vote must be united and overwhelming. No caveats.
I get that people will read point 1 and go “yes, people will have to rally around my preferred candidate.”
But it actually means exactly what it says. Whomever Democrats nominate, someone will have to hold their nose and vote for a person they didn’t want in the primaries.
Tough. Do it.
I think there are two key takeaways for Americans from Peter Magyar’s ouster of Orbán:
1. We must rally overwhelmingly behind the 2028 Dem nominee
2. We have to be ready to send people to prison if we win

Tbf there is also like several chapters where Sun Tzu says you don't actually have to do a war if there is no good reason for it and we threw that advice in the trash like it was a female officer
This is not the first time a Trump January 6th pardon has led directly to a criminal conviction for something else entirely. It will not be the last.
This law, passed in 2022 and applies to all parking lots. The timeline for incurring fines for noncompliance just varies by size of lot (m2 not number of spots). Noncompliance for large lots ~80 spots goes into effect this year and all lots goes into effect in 2028.
Another Jan. 6 rioter pardoned by President Trump will plead guilty in a separate case involving child exploitation of multiple victims, according to federal court records.
Curious why divers always seem to aim for the pool instead of jumping off the ladder headfirst into concrete
Fox News doc on lower fertility rate: "The problem is teens and young adults, from ages 15-19 the fertility rate is down 7%, and it's down 70% over the last two decades, meaning we're telling people that are young not have babies, to wait until they're in a more stable life situation"
That shrine (Fushimi Inari Shrine in Kyoto) charges about 400,000 yen for a small gate.
Republicans might be saved in the midterms if the Artemis crew discovers oil on the moon and we get that flowing by November

Saw an opportunity to leave this planet behind and took it
In college, my friend went on a first date with a woman who made fun of guys who just slept on a mattress on the floor. After receiving some panicked texts, we managed to set up one of our bedframes into his room before the two of them finished up dinner.
Gf likes explaining to me the extremely heated flamewars that go down in the matcha online community.
Every man has exactly three roommates and it is wild that anyone is claiming otherwise. Maybe you just haven't met all three yet if you think he has one or two??
Turns out covering up for pedophiles isn't a winning strategy. See you at Nuremberg 2.0
Trump gets couped if hotdogs get shortaged by start of grilling season.
I think Ron Johnson and Dave McCormick would be excellent cabinet picks
A cool thing about Trump II is seeing how many different professions and areas of expertise get to individually witness apocalypse. IR professionals and epidemiologists and supply chain experts all joining hands to weep into the abyss. It's a real communal experience.
