In other words: “You brown people should be grateful to live in a country where the vice-president calls you weasels in public”

To be fair, I wrote letters to George W. as well. Mine might have had expletives.

Not sure this detail got picked up broadly but Natalie Harp’s brother said today that Trump is not the first president she has been fixated on (he said she wrote letters to George W.)…she is a real crazy cake

🚨 After 40 years of research, Brazilian scientist Dr. Mariangela Hungria wins the World Food Prize for pioneering a $2 nitrogen-fixing bacteria treatment that replaces costly fertilizers, saves farmers $25 billion annually, and cuts 230 million tons of CO₂ emissions.

Was it the tattoo? Because Hegseth. Was it the sexual assault? Trump is an adjudicated rapist. Planter was neither elected nor appointed. They are walking away.

Kevin McCarthy on Platner Allegations: That one thing I know about Republicans is when we had a very bad candidate, we didn't vote for that person. We walked away.

My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and— I said look. Look with your eyes! Oh now you’ve gone and touched it. The paint is peeling. My beautiful paint! I’ll have to call my pool guy back. Vandal! Antifa! I said look And despair Nothing but the algae remains.

When you are the hottest country in the world, you let them do it.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Trump in response to a question about Iran firing on US ships and why that doesn't violate the ceasefire: "They respect us. They didn't used to respect us. But they respect us more than we've ever been respected. Our country now is the hottest country anywhere in the world."

"Project Freedom"? It's like they're not even trying anymore. Why not "Operation Thunder Thrust," or "Operation Relentless Pounding," or "Operation Pete Hegseth Is Not a Little Boy He's a Great Big Strong Man So Shut Up Dad You Can't Tell Me What To Do I'm Not Crying You're Crying"?

The Bulwark@thebulwark.com

Hegseth: "President Trump has directed U.S. Central Command to restart the free flow of commerce through the Strait of Hormuz under the umbrella of Project Freedom. To be clear, this operation is separate and distinct from Operation Epic Fury."

So when it comes to beards and hairstyles, discipline requires strict conformity. When it comes to contracting and spreading a preventable illness that directly affects unit readiness, follow your bliss, man.

The task of de-Trumpification of science and public health will take a generation and a "Marshall Plan" to rebuild. Without a bold, expansive vision to guide us, there is no coming back. Small-bore, poll-tested versions of the future will not help us. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

President Trump threatened to obliterate every power station and bridge in a country of 90 million people on Tuesday night in prime time and basically no one is bothering to even ask him how that is not a “war” that would require authorization from Congress under Article I of the Constitution.

Consider the opportunity costs of the war in Iran. The missiles might have been sent to Ukraine, to end that war. The money might have bought healthcare for Americans. The attention of Europe and Asia might have been focused on countering Russia and China, not re-opening the Strait of Hormuz

Setting aside the Churlish American Guy shtick and the Looney Tunes-level of understanding of maritime operations, this is a big dump on the British security partners who suffered more than 600 deaths and 10,000 injuries in the US-led Iraq and Afghanistan wars

Hegseth: "The president was clear this morning in his Truth that there are countries around the world who ought to be prepared to step up on this critical waterway as well. Last time I checked there was supposed to be a big bad Royal Navy that could be prepared to do things like that."

What does it tell us when someone does that? First, poor theory of mind if they can’t gauge whether others will realize; and often very spoiled by parents, always praised, never contradicted, so certain they are brilliant, but on some level aware that the certainty is built on fake praise.

/2 Also this is the Trumpist/Modern Right exemplar of performative needy masculinity. Look at me using violence! I am a big tough man! I demonstrate the righteousness of our side and the evil of the other side with force! At least he didn’t strangle the guy. Must not want an Andreesen job.
