Tahar 🇺🇦 🇵🇸 🇺🇳 🇪🇺

Just going to pin these 2 graphs until the Republican Party reconciles itself with democracy. I know, I’m going to wait for a long while

Every game of these #WNBA finals has been fire. Very enjoyable finals.

Amazing that after 10 years he is still pulling the same con and people are still falling for it

God damn, all those APSAs in DC we were just lucky not to be killed, folks

“Radical Islams” 🤷‍♂️

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.

This was lost in the shuffle today. Top security officials of Mecca Pact, KSA, Turkey & Pakistan, met in Tehran today. www.cnn.com/2026/10/26/m...

His rallies are making Nuremberg rallies look pale by comparison

The speed with which so many execs cozied up to this authoritarian says more about their revealed preferences than long term strategic thinking. They saw a chance for what they saw as a "business friendly" autocrat and oligarchic consolidation and jumped at it.

Oh really? If someone said this at a Talarico’s or Sherod’s rally, the @nytimes.com would have it in bold on the front page.

Oh boy… Apparently, Vivek thought this is an efficient way of making himself look less of a douche

“The director won’t protect even our most respected analysts when they tell hard truths, so they stopped telling them & learned to avoid topics the White House didn’t want to hear… Ratcliffe isn’t protecting the CIA from politicization; he’s leading it” And that’s the death of the CIA

@iansociologo.bsky.social’s fed is all in Portuguese tonight And rightly so!

Looooove to see it!

This! 100% this 👇 If you don’t punish coup perpetrators & plotters, you are begging for them to succeed next time around.

The Two-Round electoral system is a pretty good one It’s also an old system dating back to France’s July Monarchy of 1832. Later on, Michel included it in the constitution of the V Republic. The aim? Eliminate small/radical parties/candidates.

A historic power shift in Serbia promises to make it more democratic, less pro-Putin. Question is, will gangster-allied Serbian nationalism become less virulent? Will Serbs accept the rule of law — and guarantee press freedom — so EU membership is finally possible? apnews.com/article/serb...

Oh it’s official 🎉 Hungary. Serbia Brazil … Soon “us”

Can we say Lula? Or is it too early?

Gather round children and I'll tell you of a time when it was unthinkable the US would cut off vital weapons systems to an ally fighting a Russian invasion and a week later it remained an open question whether the president or a ketamine-addled oligarch gave the order. Sounds crazy, but it's true.

I did *not* expect this from Gary King.

Just to clarify something to those who aren’t familiar with Algeria: there will unlikely be any explanation or clarification about this deployment or the nature or scope of the deployment from the Algerian government and/or military. It’s total omertà, as usual.

Literally unprecedented. Algeria to deployment military troops/units to Niger. From what I’m hearing, it’s an open deployment. The official line is to protect investments in the oil sectors (construction of the Nigeria-Niger-Algeria pipeline & facilities). Unofficially, it’s an open mission.

Why does he have to go DEFCON 1 in every damn thing he writes? I read the title, rolled my eyes, & closed the app

The soaring costs of public universities is a political decision. When these schools predominantly served white students, they tended to be free (UC, CCNY, etc.) But as the number of students of color has increased, funding for the public universities has decreased. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/25/b...

@gabrielzucman.bsky.social: So let met get that straight: paying a wealth tax is impossible (“billionaires have no liquidity”, “it would be taxing unrealized gains”, “their wealth is virtual”) but one man paying half a billion to influence elections is possible. Did I understand well?

The Cheesecake Factory line has cut deep

This is surprising, & I’m happy it is surprising.

A Gaza, au Liban et en Syrie, comment Israël utilise les « zones tampons » pour étendre sa domination régionale

Since we are bragging, let me tout my own horn a bit: I single-handedly brokered a ceasefire between the Romulans and the Cardassians

This is pretty good line as well

Ok, the dude still got it

That’s a pretty good line 🤣

And my uncle invented boiling water

The implementation of even half of these recommendations would be a drastic and dramatic shift/progress

« Une archive contenant plus de 420 000 courriels & des dizaines de milliers de documents, dont des extraits de comptes, a été révélée. Elle dévoile de nombreux messages racistes et antisémites » Are we really surprised that AfD is a racist & antisemitic political party?

Joel Riddle, CEO of Polar LNG, “until he resigned in September, said he had been misled about the sources of the start-up funding, which ostensibly came from a company in the UAE” So many Qs: who told him UAE not Russia is funding” why is Witkoff/Kushner discussing investment with Putin? Why now?

Somebody needs to revisit some literature on what leadership means. the notion that you should stay quiet in the face of moral injustice (for political expediency) and then expect folks to follow you into battle afterwards is bananas

I love the passive aggressive undertone of this post

Our Secretary of State does not make the difference between “discreet” and “discrete” And he meant discreet, not discrete here We are really led by nincompoops

There are many things that have gotten better in my lifetime. But I will cite onlya small example: running shoes, & sports gear in general Better by a country mile.

By this standard, the civil right movement would have never been born. For that matter, no political movement opposing a heinous status quo would have seen the light. FWIW, that is not how opposition parties should behave.

Let’s laugh a bit… we REALLY need it I’m in tears … literally in tears 🤣🤣🤣 youtube.com/shorts/_qk1-...

A friend sent me this, & I had to open Twitter for the 1st time in a very long while (by the way, it’s literally a stinking sewer pipe now… with explicit porn right in the open), to check if this post by Marco Rubio is real. Well, it is! Our reality is unreal. We are collectively hallucinating

For the love of god, give him one so he’d shut the fuck up about it

He has nothing to campaign on other than pure xenophobia & hate. It’s the message around which his base coalesces… and he knows that moves his base.

If I have 1 piece of advice to the Republicans: please, better music. The repertoire is huuuuuuuuuge. Choose a good one. It’s not that hard, is it?
