If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

Jeff Bezos’s wealth has increased an average of $70 million every day of 2026, meaning that he could have offset The Post’s losses with what he’s made since Monday.

I think the disconnect between Atlantic elites is that Americans think Donald Trump is a kid getting to drive a monster truck for Make A Wish and Europeans and Canadians think Donald Trump is the president of the United States.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

I hope you understand that if you show up at a hospital with an infection no one has ever seen before that the US had somewhere you could call. That place would answer, offer testing you can’t get anywhere else and come visit you to solve if necessary.

Because I am angry I will share this again. One of the reasons that Israel is able to target individuals so precisely is that it collects every phone call in Gaza and stores the recordings in Microsoft Azure, then uses AI to analyze and pick targets.

Fun fact but a lot of state rape laws have “voluntary intoxication” loopholes, where a victim being too intoxicated to consent isn’t legally cognizable as rape if she ingested alcohol or drugs voluntarily. In effect, intoxication only nullifies consent in these states if the victim is roofied.
Some BG on Rao, who once blamed women for date rape:
“A good way to avoid a potential date rape is to stay reasonably sober," she wrote, and if a woman drinks to the point where she can't choose if she wants sex, “getting to that point was part of her choice.” www.huffpost.com/entry/neomi-...
