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."

The thing about RFK Jr is that he’s not just a eugenicist who peddles extreme and dangerous anti-science, anti-vaccine conspiracy theories that cause suffering, pain, and death, but he’s also a vile racist piece of s**t

Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has won reelection, defeating Senator Flávio Bolsonaro, an ally of President Donald Trump, in a razor-thin race that capped a deeply polarized presidential race. https://cnn.it/4e0XHZv

The Governor of the Libyan Central Bank, Naji Issa, has essentially been ratfucked. The House of Representatives “officially” accepted his resignation from three months ago, one that the House already had rejected. Issa’s attempted resignation earlier this year was a show, meant to build pressure

The Trump administration came “very close” to approving a new military strike against Iran on at least one recent occasion, citing several sources familiar with the discussions.-JPost

Lol this article is one big hallucination. The anti-war GOP consists of a VP who publicly supports wars of aggression and a Senator who wants Russia to invade Sweden and Finland. Small-gov't GOP is the feds stepping in to block states from regulating foods/medicines and deciding who plays HS sports.

Pretty remarkable for a survey of the state of the modern GOP to omit any mention of racism or authoritarianism. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/19/o...

Racists do this thing where they misunderstand period racism, and project their own current pathologies onto the past. Washington D.C. Islamic center was opened in 1957.

Calliope@calliope5431.bsky.social

Arguably the funniest part of this line of rhetoric is that it assumes "before WW2" is inaccessible pre-Cambrian time. These people are still alive! They're in their 80s and 90s! Go knock on grandma's door and ask her! She almost certainly won't care!

.........is knowingly selling medical devices that do not and cannot work under false pretenses a crime so vast that you have to basically indict the whole society that produced it?

I can't believe he'd do this. This is the second time now he's called for his VP to be executed.

Carl Quintanilla@carlquintanilla.bsky.social

(Bloomberg) - President Donald Trump called for executing individuals who leak information to the media during a campaign rally as he railed against what he saw as critical coverage of the Iran war. @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Musk unilaterally shut off a defensive capability just as Russia attacked power plants with winter approaching I don't know why anyone trusted him before, but certainly nobody can afford an Elon Musk dependency after this

"You hired half the Third Reich to staff your office ... If John Lewis were marching today, Mike Collins would be grabbing a billy club" -- here's a supercut of Jon Ossoff SMASHING Mike Collins during tonight's debate

vp reposted

Ossoff: "They've unleashed federal agents to kill Americans on the streets of our cities with impunity. That's Mike Collins's immigration policy. And that's what you'd expect from the bigot congressman who called for executed immigrants by throwing to their deaths out of helicopters."

Remember, you are under no obligation to ever side with Tucker Carlson when he makes some anti-Trump comment. He is a fascist apologist who apparently thinks Hitler winning WWII would have been fine. He is, in my humble opinion, a silver spooned bigot who romanticizes white supremacy.

Tucker: “I never understood why 🇬🇧 fought World War 2?” 😕 Rees-Mogg: “It was good vs. evil…We did the right thing…” Tucker: “Has 🇬🇧 benefitted?” RM: “We defeated Hitler… We’d all be speaking German…” Tucker: “Who cares?” 🤔

NEW: The Trump admin is airing *another* taxpayer-funded political ad, & this time, it's from his 2024 campaign. Trump says in the ad: "We will demolish the deep state, expel the warmongers from our government... We will rout the fake news media..."

Trump claims he was basically lifted out of the rubble on 9/11: "Two fireman, big strong guys, they grabbed me under the arms -- 'got to get our of here!' -- and they literally lifted me up, and they started running with me."
