There's something he and Bernie have in common.

After Elon Musk has been insinuating to turn off Starlink in Ukraine, Poland‘s Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski is reminding Musk that Poland is paying for it, and he is making clear that if Musk follows through that Poland will abandon Starlink altogether for being an unreliable service.

From the man who backed out of a fight with Mark Zuckerberg and an appearance on the Daily Show: "I literally challenged Putin to one on one physical combat". This is "my dad works for Nintendo" level stuff.

Everyone's so worked up about the trans athlete smokescreen that they're not talking about the really ugly stuff that's happening to trans folks. Get it together and stop taking the bait, people.
We've confirmed the US Bureau of Prisons has transferred trans women to men's prisons despite three court rulings blocking Trump's executive order
“I’m continuing to be punished for existing. I'm a pawn in others' political games" -Whitney, 31-year-old woman taken to men's prison this week, told us

Trump’s Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent just told Americans to stop demanding things like “access to cheap goods” because it’s “not the essence of the American dream.”

I'm giving us a year to fold our arms and begrudge each other, but there's no way we get out of this until leftists and liberals remember how to work together before the 2026 elections.

The ability to control mass party opinion this directly is unlike anything I’ve really seen in my time covering politics.

I guess they're just taking a cue from too many Dem voters last year.
All I'm saying is, if you ran a campaign on democracy being at stake and democracy lost, isn't it time to be massively freaking out instead of doing this

Now I'm reminiscing on Bones/No Bones days from lockdown.
I see tomorrow is Friday.
Is Friday going a tariff day, or a some-tariffs day, or a no-tariffs day?
Or will it be some other kind of day, like an annex-Greenland day, or a Hannibal-Lecter-wants-to-have-you-for-dinner day, or an Arnold-Palmer-size day, or something else?
I just can’t keep track.

Dunno that I completely agree. Typically in dystopian fiction societies there's still an elite ruling class. But for sure dystopian fiction is meant to be a warning to people with privilege about what their lives would be like without it.

Thirty officers who worked at a youth detention center in Los Angeles County have been charged with allowing — and in some cases, encouraging — gladiator-style fights among the teenagers being held there, California’s attorney general said.

These guys aren't good at business either. The president has like 6 bankruptcies and Elon's running his businesses into the ground.
Isn't this the "run the government like a business" crowd? If I kept putting false profit statements on my business filings, wouldn't I, you know, go to jail?
