“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

We went from a country that defended others from being invaded for their natural resources, to a country that is now threatening to invade others for their natural resources.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

Opinion | Jamal Khashoggi: What the Arab world needs most is free expression
The Arab world needs a modern version of the old transnational media so citizens can be informed about global events.

I wish we lived in a land where if journalists heard the president call one of their colleges "piggy" or suggest another of their colleagues, who was butchered for what he wrote, in some way had it coming, they would close their laptops, leave as soon as possible, and ask to be reassigned.

And then think of what a cornered psychopathic human being with the morals and instincts of a rat and control of over five thousand nuclear warheads would do.

Massie: "The president has been saying this is a hoax. Well, he's just now decided to investigate a hoax, if it's a hoax. And I have another concern about these investigations he's announced. If they have ongoing investigations, those documents can't be released. So this might be a big smokescreen."

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

The person who is currently running our country has lost his mind and it’s time we start talking about it.
Trump said he has instructed the Defense Department to “prepare for possible action” in Nigeria over the country’s alleged killing of Christians.

Hey doc, have I got eye-popping news for you:
I currently pay $18,646/yr (no subsidies) for privately purchased Blue Cross/Blue Shield silver tier PPO health insurance with a $7,000/pp deductible for myself and my daughter. We are both healthy.

In 2026, silver becomes bronze _and_ increases by 30.6% to $24,354—an extra $475/mo or $5,708/yr. 🤯

The OLC memo is definitely nonsense, as @jahimes.bsky.social says. There is nothing the memo could say that would make these strikes anything other than murder.
Jim Himes: "If Lindsey Graham and other Republicans want to go the route of saying it's okay to kill people legally just so long as the American public supports it, the American public really needs to think that through...It's a very dangerous path for this country to go down."

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.
