Nothing funny about a settler colonial nation threatening to invade an Indigenous People who have been "claimed" by a colonial nation. The ones who lose in this scenario are always going to be Indigenous.

Read the whole thread. Gregg is right. It’s NOT a question of “experts disagree.” I’ve been working in medicine, medical journalism or global health for 32 years & know a LOT of health professionals—I do not know a *single one* who supports RFK Jr’s dangerous dismantling of the US vaccine system.
Children will die with RFK Jr.'s new vaccine recommendations. We're NOT doing the "experts disagree" game. The US vaccine schedule was painstakingly constructed through a deep & thorough process by experts with unquestionable expertise. This is policy by fiat. It is pre-meditated murder. 1/

This is the kind of thing that the Founders explicitly designed our constitution to prevent; a president who has seized wealth for his own benefit without any intervention from Congress, which in our system is supposed to be the holder of the power of the purse.

Deep down America's allies know that only Americans can put a stop to the madness.

The fact that they can't or won't is why the damage to our partnerships will last far beyond this President.

It pains me to say it, but if the US is serious about "taking over" Greenland, then it is at least as great as security threat to Western Europe as Russia is.

And should be treated accordingly.

Every piece of reporting I've seen on this is drastically understating the scale. These are from Grok's replies within a single minute. Time-to-reply is degrading because it has such a backlog of NCII/CSAM requests to fulfill. Conservatively I estimate it is producing more than 5000 of these per day

First CES panel. Intuit CMO Thomas Ranese is proud of his company's integration with OpenAI, which involves giving AI read/write access to tax data. Since prompt injection attacks are unavoidable, I asked him who will be liable when customer data is exposed: Intuit, OpenAI, etc?

He had no idea.

He'll stop after Venezuala.
He'll stop with Greenland.
He'll respect the deal with Mexico
He'll never try for Canada.

Reporter to Kushner & Witkoff during Ukraine summit: "I know there's a reluctance to talk about Greenland today, but what value do these commitments have on the very day that at the highest levels of govt in Washington they are talking about seizing the sovereign territory of a fellow NATO member?"

The FEDS drugged and shot Fred Hampton in bed.

Philly cops blew up a building in the 1980s and most people don't even know the MOVE bombing happened.

I think you're downplaying how normalized US death is.
If the DEA had killed 80 innocent Americans in the course of apprehending one drug dealer, there would be riots. But we are so ghoulishly indifferent to the lives and humanity of people abroad that it's barely even part of the conversation.
A reminder that the US killed 80 people in Venezuela, and it would be nice if the US media cared enough to think that the life of a grandmother in Caracas whose building is destroyed by a US bomb matters as much as the life of a person in the US.

Est-ce que les hétérosexuels vont bien ??
When Cody Zervas desired a one-in-a-million match, he offered a bounty of $20,000 to the person who introduced him to his bride. It's part of a growing Silicon Valley idea that promotes "love at first match," where relationship problems could be measured, optimized and solved with A.I.

No, it was a successful coup. None of the people who led it were punished, and are in fact back in power, rewarded for their efforts to break the system by running it. Donald Trump is currently the dictator he attempted to become 5 years ago, and it’s because nobody treated trying as a crime.
We must speak plainly: January 6th was an attempted coup. It was an effort to nullify millions of lawful votes and subvert the will of the American people.
