A 2025 Nobel Prize winner in chemistry, Omar Yaghi is the son of Palestinian refugees who grew up in Jordan. He just left the US to move to China after raising concerns about rising anti-immigrant sentiment, like the kind shown here. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/china-than...
RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

Obviously this is racist and gross, but it's also shockingly historically illiterate? No one who has taken a single high school world history course would deny that Arab culture has produced incredible science and literature. This is why we need basic humanities education.

Overall, we are seeing some very odd deal talks that are supposedly a part of ending the war in Ukraine. But in fact evidence shows these deals are structured (in the most recent case secretly until now) to financially benefit Russia or business partners of the Trump and Witkoff families.

Vivek Ramaswamy put a registered sex offender who was sentenced to 8 years in prison for sexual contact with a minor in a new ad. It’s not surprising he would side with the “stepfather” who raped a 12-yr-old child. Vivek possesses the perfect amount of empathy and morality for Ohio MAGA: zero!

For Trump, who is heavily invested in the fossil fuels industry, windfall profits for that industry are a wonderful thing. For US consumers, they're a nightmare. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Trump: "While oil prices are temporarily high ... the United States oil and gas business is making hundreds of billions of dollars"

So strange that Russia is trying to help Republicans in this election, it's almost as though they know one party is on their side and the other isn't www.nytimes.com/2026/10/22/u...

🚨Ex-GOP political strategist Steve Schmidt has called for the “immediate removal” of Donald Trump’s son-in-law from “every diplomatic assignment” following an explosive report alleging that Jared Kushner secretly had access to roughly $1.75 billion in Gulf money while serving in the White House.

The dude’s spiraling will get worse over the next week. Severe sleep deprivation plus sundowning plus stimulant abuse equals complete meltdown.
Something is off with Trump tonight. The gaffes, the glitches, the confusion are well beyond his usual. "They gave the wonderful peace prize, right? Does anybody know the name of that peace prize? They gave the Pulitzer Prize to a young lady."

Marco sold his soul long ago. At least now he doesn't quote scripture to justify his BS.
Sure it did. Just like how the Trump administration sorta happened to stop sharing information with Ukraine-so they no longer get warnings about impending Russian ballistic missile attacks-and more innocent civilians die These bastards have morphed from callous thugs to full blown war criminals
