This suggests that Hegseth has truly fouled the arsenal and possibly diverted PURL funded materiel to US needs. Dude has ceashed deep in criminal mismanagement territory and there is no rescue chopper coming for him.

Maybe it’s just me, but I want to slap this chud.

Real screencaps from Don Jr's "hunting trip" in Mongolia with his new Kremlin handler, Umar Kremlev. Taxpayers paid $18,715 to put up his Secret Service details for 14 days, but if they were in hotel rooms, I guess they didn't get to hunt? www.ft.com/content/f41f...

❗️Ukrainian sources say Kyiv has received no update from Pete Hegseth or the Pentagon on approvals for Patriot and NASAMS missiles, with no movement reported. Zelensky said Ukraine has been waiting nearly a month for Hegseth’s sign-off and instructed his team to raise the issue again. #Ukraine

A hole was blasted through Kyiv’s Pivdennyi Bridge during Russia’s attack, and repairs will take time. Meanwhile, Ukraine is still waiting for delayed approvals for Patriot and NASAMS interceptor missiles from Washington. #Ukraine

A federal judge issued a blistering order Monday night concerning President Donald Trump's attempts to renovate the East Potomac Golf Course in Washington, D.C.

This is so remarkable. In a country that has been an authoritarian Russian empire satellite since before the First World War. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/o...

Do you like my pumpkin?

Just wait until there are scenes like this in the states. Imagine how scary that will be to current and former MAGA.

Incredible scenes from Brazil after Brazilians saved their democracy.

A protester yelled "Shove that ballroom up your fat ass" to Trump at his rally in Mississippi on Monday night. This clip contains two versions of the moment. The first is how it aired on a livestream. In the second I increased the audio for that moment.

Today's mood:

In the last three days, I have driven 300 miles around extremely rural eastern Washington state. There were lots of campaign signs up for local and state offices. Mix of R and D, a fair few more former than latter. Not a single Trump sign. I am legit surprised.

Beatrice Keul, testified that she was introduced by Jeffrey Epstein to Donald J Trump, who then brutally raped her in a hotel room in Atlantic City, NJ, and her claims were deemed credible by a panel of the House Judiciary Committee today. The NYT has decided that this is not reportable news.

One of the benefits of hindsight is being able to see the critics of awful people vindicated by society over time, giving the lie to the "we can't judge them by modern standards" arguments in the process.

Sometimes I think about how it takes historians at least a few decades to settle the facts of some events because it takes that long for everyone invested in defending the relevant set of lies to die off

Here's the excerpt I think @kyledcheney.bsky.social meant to append:

Off the charts Trump family corruption. Kushner got Billions of foreign funds, while spearheading foreign policy. And the Hunter Biden hunters are silent. @MarshaBlackburn

Robert F. Kennedy Sr. spent his time in government fighting *against* racist bigots who said these exact same things, except their rants were against “Africans”

Thailand's #EV boom: plug-in vehicles surged from 1.2% (2021) to 40.4% (Sept 2026), with ICE collapsing from 94.5% to 31.5%. Chinese brands now dominate—9 of top 10 BEVs. A stunning transition. This is technological disruption & the implications for traditional carmakers & the big oil are enormous.

Love me now Hold me down And the government Staying on heavy foot And they tried to keep us all down No they never gonna keep us all down 🇺🇸 www.youtube.com/watch?v=vyXc...

So far, remarkably high turnout by young Black voters in Georgia. Eye-popping chart.

I’d say Trump isn’t as good at influencing foreign elections as Putin, but I dunno, the Serbia results are a huge defeat for Putin. He’s lost both Orban & Vucic in a year.

Here is some of our coverage of this failed hotel project in Serbia that led to protests against Vucic.... www.nytimes.com/2025/05/14/u...

It’s just so appalling and enraging how casual and commonplace this has become. I’m out of words.

This is a rare moment of bipartisanship. And a reliable indication that Darline Graham is a horrible, inexperienced nepo-candidate.

Lock 🔒 him up forever.

Cindy Hyde-Smith goes on stage, says one line, then leaves

The Trump administration is attempting to prosecute James Comey for what it calls a decade-old leak of classified information. Comey's lawyers immediately dismissed the effort as invalid and outside the time limit. n.pr/4yN4DRo

Hayward mayor: 2 taken into ICE custody today; calls it “deeply troubling.”

Seems like if anyone has the money to shield himself from accountability it would be the richest man in the world.

Reuters: US APPEALS COURT DENIES TRUMP ADMINISTRATION'S REQUEST TO STOP CALIFORNIA FROM COUNTING MAIL BALLOTS FROM ALLEGED NONCITIZENS

Who do I give to to get this in front of as many Michigan voters as possible?

And now back to my full time job, texting the word "stop" to every living Democrat.

i don't think anyone should run explicitly on banning online gambling but i do think that a democratic-led government should just quietly take steps to undermine the industry and create an inhospitable regulatory environment

I know there's a lot going on but I feel it should probably be more of an above-the-fold story that members of Congress released a thoroughly documented report directly accusing the president of the United States of being a serial rapist.

it feels truly insane that it’s not

The funny thing is that he's upset that Obama compared his ersatz Disney Versailles to what he thinks is a low end chain restaurant while all the Fox flunkies (and some of the MSM too) are all clutching their pearls over Obama making fun of the Real Americans who love that low end chain restaurant.

There are only two explanations for the NYT's habit of presenting GOP operatives and donors as true swing voters: 1. Their reporters and editors are somehow incapable of running a simple Google searches, showing just a staggering level of journalistic incompetence 2. They want to the GOP to win
