Ronny has been alternately threatening the Ayatollah and migrants since his 4th whisky at 2 PM.

DAVIDSON: The same people criticizing the military parade are disappointed we're not funding transgender operas in Colombia KEILAR: No, these are your Republican colleagues

PSA for today and every day:

No Kings protest sign with a Ukrainian flavor

Fascists want to provoke violence so they can justify crackdowns and get some good footage to distort for state propaganda outlets

So do we get why I was banned from speaking about Pinochet at the Naval Academy now?

The military isn’t being employed to carry out an immigration policy. The immigration policy, and especially the way the administration is choosing to carry it out, is an excuse to call out the military.

So I heard Republicans are confused and waiting for Jerry Springer to tell them who their daddy is before any legislation can move! Is Elon their daddy or Trump?

lol, from @antongerashchenko.bsky.social

Ukraine asked for NATO membership, we said no because of Russian nukes. Ukraine asked for security guarantees, we said no because of Russian nukes. Ukraine asked for long-range weapons, we said no because of Russian nukes. So Ukraine got rid of Russian strategic nuclear bombers

You can trigger your MAGA trolls by reminding them that Russia attacked Ukraine every single day Donald was president the first time. And he did nothing.

I have never had cancer, but I did dress up as Walter White for my frat's Alpha Male Party. Here are my thoughts about Biden's diagnosis... (1/42)

Boop! Insert “Biden did that” sticker.  👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

You know you’re winning when you post “We are NOT the Gestapo!”

Welcome to THE daily thread covering all things Ukraine. It's the morning after the night before. The US/Ukraine/Europe all (again) demand Russia accept a ceasefire. But at 2am, Putin said "nyet", AGAIN. This time he proposes a meeting but won't stop the killing. It's Day 1173, let's begin..

Putin has no ideology; he is, in fact, an intellectually unsophisticated person. His entire political worldview rests on two very simple narratives. 1/9

I think about this comic at least once a week

Ukraine war live: leaders of UK, France, Germany and Poland arrive in Kyiv to push for ceasefire #Ukraine

🔴 BREAKING: French President Emmanuel Macron, UK PM Keir Starmer, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, and Polish PM Donald Tusk have arrived in Kyiv, reports UNITED24 Media correspondent. They are expected to hold a meeting of the "coalition of the willing" today.

Testing a great piece of technology today in the field. This shows video signal from nearby analogue FPV drones. Works well in some kilometres. I think more armies should be using similar devices, in complex with other systems.

Granddaughter of a Navy vet. Daughter of a Navy vet. Mother of an Army soldier. Not one damn dime should be spent on a military parade for a draft dodger…

Its satire but.... is it.

As a conservative Catholic, I led protests against movies like The Last Temptation of Christ and the Conclave. I thought Trump’s tweet of himself as Pope was delightful.

🗣️ DO YOU WANT TO BE NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISOR??!?

The fact that the economy shrank in the first quarter has generated a lot of big headlines. I want to give a more nuanced interpretation, and perhaps make the case that there's less here than meets the eye. And lemme explain why this is a moment that will confound many of our economic statistics.

This. We looked ahead to purchases in the near future, stocked up on nonperishables, got socks and underwear and stuff, have done our best to get as much of a meds stockpile as possible under current rules which are, you know, shrug.

Our coalition has expanded, and a lot has been happening. A friendly reminder to all: the first rule of Fight Club is you do not talk about Fight Club.

Peace deals: 0 Trade deals: 0

Wow, Ukraine doesn’t want to surrender? Who would’ve thought… after 11 years of war and in the 4th year of the full-scale invasion…

We don’t agree on much, but I think we can all agree that, if Cardinal Pizzaballa becomes Pope, he should keep his name.

There is absolutely zero reason to cave to Trump, as we’ve seen from Columbia his administration will absolutely go back on its word. The only way to stay safe to protect your institution is to stay loud stay visible and stay engaged.

this is also on Bukele's social media feed

He will escalate and escalate until he is forcibly stopped. He has a personality disorder. We are watching a predatory psychopath in action. It's about the power, the abuse. He enjoys the suffering, and it gives him power. It's like fuel. He needs more.

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R): "We are all afraid…I am oftentimes very anxious myself about using my voice because retaliation is real."

This. Joanne is right.

Either the courts get to decide who is a “violent criminal” or “gang member”, or Donald Trump gets to decide. That choice determines whether we are a Republic governed by laws or an autocracy living under a ruler.

New ep! @christopherjm.ft.com helps me put the last few months of chaotic Ukraine news into a bigger strategic context: strategyaaron.substack.com/p/kyiv-needs...

Criminals deserve due process because due process is literally how we determine whether someone is, *in fact*, a criminal

What people must understand is that Putin is only accelerating his attacks on Ukrainian civilians because he is completely confident that Trump has his back. The US could make Russia pay for these attacks, but Putin knows that Trump never will. It’s a sign of (perverse) trust.
