My favorite part of being a pilot are those chances to get just above a cloud layer and enjoy the amazing views.

When we’re climbing up from take off, we see the same thing as everyone else on those rainy days; dreary, dark skies and the depressing ambiance that follows. Then we pop up top to this

To quote @philipdefranco.bsky.social,
“for all the Pro Gaza folk who yelled genocide Joe or Killer Kamala and either abstained from voting, voted Jill stein, or even voted for Trump… what is your reaction to Trump saying the US will own Gaza?

Still feel the same way?”

It’s no surprise that Scott Bessent and Donald Trump want to save face and downplay the risks as Elon Musk seizes power, but the American people know better. Trump and Bessent are asking you not to believe what’s playing out right in front of your eyes.

Eine Rede, die Anerkennung verdient. In 1 Minute zeigt @ricardalang.bsky.social , wie man mit der AfD umgehen sollte und ja, sie spricht Friedrich Merz zurecht die Kanzlerfähigkeit ab. Hut ab vor dieser Rede!

Wenn sich manche nicht mehr darauf verlassen können, dass die Grund- und Menschenrechte auch für sie gelten, kann sich niemand mehr darauf verlassen. Ein Kanzlerkandidat, der genau dies ankündigt, der sich selektiv nicht mehr an das Recht halten will, ist gefährlich.

Merz spricht im Bundestag von “täglich stattfindenden Gruppenvergewaltigungen aus dem Milieu der Asylbewerber heraus”. Diese Debatte entgleist so entsetzlich.

Was untergeht in dieser Debatte: Wer deutsche Grenzen für Geflüchtete "dicht" machen will, will Schengen beenden, Europa im Kern beschädigen - und am Ende Mauern und Zäune errichten. Ohne damit verhindern zu können, dass schlimmste Verbrechen in diesem Land geschehen.

The halls of Chernobyl - a military radio facility nearby. Wishing all of my friends back in Ukraine are still okay but that’s just not the reality anymore. We need to hold Putin responsible for his war crimes. #ukraine #chernobyl #travel

Basically, all of Kash Patel's hearing was like this:

Dem Sen: You said on the "Tightest Whitie Podcast," quote, 'I'm going to use the FBI to hunt down Trump's enemies, period, full stop, it's as simple as that, no more, no less." Is that your intent?

Patel: That was taken out of context.
