A gentle reminder for whoever needs it: you don't have to make yourself small for anyone. You are perfect, exactly the way you are.

That's right. Laugh right at these sweaty losers and double down on the peaceful protests against them.

I'll offer 10-to-1 odds that she feeds these memos into an LLM and asks it for a summary.

This is Hegseth trying to make it sound like a bigger deal than it is. We have friendly foreign air forces in the US for training exercises and the like all the time, especially ones that use US equipment. That's what this is. It's not like an operational deployment or giving them a whole airbase.

Appreciate the clarification. Pete being Pete was just trying to sound tough it seems. This is why I love this site. And thanks @andycraig.bsky.social

I work in this field. And yes, this is nothing new. The freak out over this is driving me insane. There are foreign air force members/equipment all over in USAF bases.

We sell, train, and sustain aircraft and weapons to many different countries.

The correct response to Republicans widely depicting the coming protests as terrorism is to go out and protest. Each person should get 10 more people to do so. If Republicans are going to hint at violent state responses to legitimate protest, the only answer is bigger numbers.

I feel terrible for everyone whose career is being destroyed but she is going to set speed records for running CBS into the ground, Ellison is no Murdoch

Yeah there have been reports coming out she’s not the liberal non-violent anti-Trump person it seems. But mostly both she AND the Trump org (and even US State Dept under Biden) all support outing the current government in Venezuela

When Trump dies that will be the first thing he’s ever done to promote peace.
Nobel for you!

Huh. Gonna be an awkward day for Secretary of State-National Security Advisor-Acting Archivist Marco Rubio.

If Trump announced he wanted Christ the Redeemer replaced with a statue of himself in Rio, the entire right wing would be up in arms demanding Brazil do that and making Fox appearances just to talk about it.

🧵 Am I surprised they gave Maria Corina Machado the Nobel Peace Prize? No. Does she deserve it? Also, no. There’s a reason she was barred from running for office in Venezuela: multiple violent coup attempts and calling of foreign governments, like Israel, to invade Venezuela.

That Final Four press conference brought in an army of cameras—literally hundreds. You'd have thought it was Beyoncé, T. Swift or Tom Cruise.

But no, it was for a nonagenarian, wheelchair-bound team chaplain.

Here's the CBS Sports obituary on Sister Jean, gone at the beautiful age of 106.

Any news organization that treated "Will Trump Get Nobel?" as a remotely serious question, and not one more indication of his accelerating hallucinatory patterns, has some 'splaining to do.

Looking at you, all major news orgs.

Whoa. This thread is a STORY.

Sister Jean Dolores Schmidt, a longtime team chaplain for Loyola University Chicago, has died at the age of 106, the university announced on Thursday.

lol that’s actually quite literally the opposite of what the judge said.

I realized I didn’t include the link but, as I was saying, it was confirmed last night this is not about her niece’s residence. It’s another VA house and the case is even WEAKER

He literally created The Department of War. My goodness he is such a small petty man and has always been. It amazes me so many fall for his con.

The widespread media decision to frame international affairs as "will Donnie get the prize he wants?" is pathetic.

He's not the protagonist of human events. And to the extent he's a significant character in world affairs, whether or not he gets a prize is one of the least important things about it.

Since the Rams shut down Barkley.
