Another story impossible to imagine in any other administration: the president's son goes hunting with a Russian criminal who is part of Putin's security entourage

The remote rendezvous in August highlights the remarkable relationship between a son of the US president and a businessman with ties to the Kremlin. ft.trib.al/9g7wnme

US science is being lead by a drug addicted pervert with a brain worm, and the results are pretty much what you’d expect.

Don Moynihan@donmoyn.bsky.social

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...

Since FIFA gave Trump the FIFA Peace Prize, Norway should give Trump the Nobel World Cup.

Scott Horton@robertscotthorton.bsky.social

On the campaign trail in Port Huron, Michigan, Trump flies into a wild rage against the Kingdom of Norway, escalating his invective in increasingly vulgar terms. He called Norway a ‘shit house country’ and said Norwegian immigrants are not welcome because Norway has not awarded him a Peace Prize

Americans have now spent $142 billion more on gasoline and diesel since March 1, enough to buy 361,000 homes at the September median price, enough to house over 900,000 people, due to the US war on Iran and other factors like limited output from Russia

Context: On 6/6/14, President Obama & Putin were both in France to commemorate the 70th anniversary of D-Day. This tense conversation occured on the sidelines of a leaders' luncheon. This was their first face-to-face meeting since Russia had unilaterally annexed Crimea earlier that year.

This is insane. What an obscene monstrosity.

And shows how Trump's arch would change the view of the Lincoln Memorial from Arlington House (the Custis-Lee Mansion). 3/3

Treason is an impeachable offense and sufficient grounds to deport Elon.

Phillips OBrien@phillipspobrien.bsky.social

Trump and Musk are just stringing Ukraine along and letting Russia attack it with impunity. And the American press is foolishly falling for blue smoke and mirrors, arguing whether Musk or Trump are responsible. Hint, they both are!

In 2012, Robin Williams warned us about Trump’s ownership of pageants like Miss America and Miss Universe, comparing it to Michael Vick owning pet stores: “It’s a catch-and-release program.” We should have listened to Robin.

Me too, but I think Putin is also bribing Trump. Since Republican House Speaker Kevin McCarthy seems to agree (2/7/17; Guardian), is this really out of the question?

MAKS 26 👀🇺🇦@maks23.bsky.social

🇺🇸👀 Hillary Clinton: I continue to believe that Putin has things on Trump. I continue to believe that he is holding photos, videos, whatever it might be. When we finally see all the Epstein files, I think even the people who supported Trump are going to be shocked by what it shows about Trump.

Looks like even KY and WV may get sucked into the refinery snags in the Great Lakes. This is rack price data from OPIS, showing wholesale gas price changes from yesterday...

Trump is playing three dementia chess.

Mrs. Betty Bowers@mrsbettybowers.bsky.social

If you think a test for dementia is an IQ test, you have dementia. If you don't realize you have been given a test for dementia because your physician suspects you have dementia, you have dementia. If you think being able to tell a giraffe from a whale makes you a genius . . . you have dementia.

Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff to Vladimir Putin today: “You talk so much about Trump being a humanitarian, you are a humanitarian also, sir. And I salute that. I commend you.”

They fucked with my vote to run an experiment!

Mallory McMorrow@mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social

As one of the candidates featured in these polls - the infamous one in late June that showed me plummeting into single digits (which was at odds with our internals) - here's the impact of this "experiment"

Do Melania and Elon first.

President Trump said that Democratic critic Ilhan Omar ‘could go to jail’ amid an investigation into her US immigration paperwork. reut.rs/4eljCdU

I have been trying to think of what Trump’s hideous “ballroom” project reminds me of — and I finally have it — it is Nicolai Ceausescu’s infamous and unfinished House of the People in communist Romania, which also brought awfulness to a lovely downtown.

I'm not sure how much more blatant it can get that these guys are looting the federal government and then pointing over there and saying "look what THOSE BLACK PEOPLE ARE GETTING AWAY WITH!!!" bsky.app/profile/atru...

Stephen Miller claims Somali-Americans in Minnesota are "buying Mercedes, buying BMWs, they buy a nice house, all their kids fly first class all over the world" (This is a lie!)

Nicholas Grossman@nicholasgrossman.bsky.social

The Trump regime’s window to get Russia a victory in Ukraine without Congress exposing the corrupt personal payments Trump and Co. will get from Russia if they pull it off is down to three months. Hence the big push now.

Great idea!

Senator Elissa Slotkin@slotkin.senate.gov

I hopped on the train from Chicago back home to Michigan. I break down why I’m focused on the idea that we should speed up trains between Chicago and Detroit, and Detroit to Toronto! In Michigan we love our cars and driving, but taking the train is a great way to travel, and we can make it better.
