I better stop flying with my giant sack of laundered money, the one with the giant dollar sign on it.

Well on the one hand we know stuff like this really turns off young voters but on the other hand at least no one in a leadership position within the Democratic Party had to have an uncomfortable conversation

They’re killing US citizens in cold blood, but good for you to prioritize stopping those Canadian hordes from swimming across the lake!

The Israeli government has displaced a total of 6 million people from their homes. (3 million Iran, 2 million Gaza, 1 million Lebanon).

6 million people.

The equivalent of the entire population of Maryland displaced from their homes.

By one government.

Confusion abounds over future of US vaccine advisory committee Former ACIP members make contradictory statements following judge essentially invalidating panel and recent decisions

“Congress needs to impeach Kennedy now and put a stop to this grotesque circus”.

When reporters would ask me about "how will the public see the effects of DOGE?" my answer was pretty unsatisfying.
1. Performance declines in orgs that deliver direct and measurable services (e.g. IRS, VA, SSA)
2. Emergencies reveal lack of expertise when you need it.

The Iran war is a #2 case.

Over the last few years, American tech oligarchs have become the greatest argument against their own existence.

The sheer scale of their erratic behavior and political interference proves that extreme wealth concentration is a structural threat to society

Pope Leo is the first Pope to have ever experienced the US healthcare system, so there's that

Kinda wild that the industry that has given us 27 Marvel movies and 6 Scary Movies got so mad over one small comment about ballet. Looks like the LA Ballet folded after its first decade and was dormant from 1985-2004 too. They just hate Chalamet that much!

Will Kash Patel be in the dugout if they win? #WBC

We kidnapped their president I think they’re due for a win

Companies never returned their prices to normal after 2-3 months of slowdown in global manufacturing during COVID so this time ought to be great too!

Excellent thread.

This is the true promise of AI: allowing people to live in a fantasy world of their own design. Just psyching yourself up with nonsense images that reflect a completely deranged worldview with no connection to actual events at all. Your life gets worse and worse but the images get better and better

There's a hauntingly beautiful irony in these morons thinking that carefully crafted American hegemony was actually weak and woke, and they would be the ones who would do Power and Dominance properly, and immediately bringing everything crashing down

Protesting students were arrested, expelled, and beaten up for an entire year while Democrats were in charge. Now Democrats expect them to keep protesting? Gtfoh

Real men prohibit unflattering photographs

I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.

I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.

1/ Here's what I can share:

War is woke now I guess. The real men do limited excursions

This can’t be real why are people treating it like it’s real it’s not real right?!

Almost every Democratic response to this shit right now starts with five sentences about how bad the Ayatollah was and how it was obviously good to destroy him with a missile and thanking our brave men and women in uniform before uttering a single criticism

Truly astounding how many really evil people there are in the world, and how in the US we have created a system that elevates the worst of them into positions of tremendous power

OMG they released the deposition videos where they revealed that these two DOGE bros were just feeding grants into ChatGPT and saying "tell me if this is DEI in less than 120 characters."

There are obv so many impeachable things to choose from but a nice simple one is “started a war without congressional approval AND has absolutely no idea why he did it”

I’m told that legally he can’t do this so I assume it will be okay

Caitlin KALINOWSKI over X I resigned from OpenAl. I care deeply about the Robotics team and the work we built together. This wasn't an easy call. Al has an important role in national security. But surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got. This was about principle, not people. I have deep respect for Sam and the team, and I'm proud of what we built together.

OpenAI head of robotics just resigned over company deal with the Pentagon saying…
