I personally will continue to use "Gulf of Mexico" because our president is a wrathful felonious nincompoop with the intellect of paramecium and I do not consent to his cartographic buffoonery
Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons:

-We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S.

-The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: He choked.

The market started to tank, and suddenly, he said, “Oh, didn’t you guys already have a plan to deal with the border back in December? I love that—I’ll take that.”

This is Mr. Art of the Deal.

Update - Ed Martin has announced he’s in contact with the FBI, and has his prosecutors preparing to go after those who he feels “have committed acts that appear to violate the law in targeting DOGE employees.”

Before the election we discussed the likelihood of tRump, the Heritage Foundation, and oligarchs establishing state-run radio.

The first step has been taken.

Here is why Trump, Musk, and co are desperate for Ukraine to negotiate with Russia and implement a "buffer zone", Russia has essentially lost the war and will not be able to hold any occupied territory without outside collaborators.

They aren't negotiating peace, they are negotiating the plunder.
The primary goal of Russia's invasion of Ukraine is to steal their resources and meet its broader strategy of market monopolization and price manipulation. Ukraine holds over 110 billion tons of proven mineral reserves across 100+ resource types. It is valued between $15 - $26 trillion. #opcanary 🧵

I am the mother of a 33 year old autistic son. There are two schools of thought about autism - A) it’s a problem or B) it’s a difference.

The opinions of autistic individuals are rarely given the public airing they deserve, and these individuals are rarely given the acceptance we ALL deserve.

Hassan, through tears: "I am the proud mother of a 36 year old with severe cerebral palsy. And a day does not go by when I don't think about what I did I do when I was pregnant with him... So please do not suggest that anybody in this body doesn't want to know what the cause of autism is"

WH Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt just clarified on X that the rescission of the OMB memo was simply to get the federal court case to go away, not lifting the funding freeze on anything that goes against Trump's EOs
