Not that this garbage is happening.
But that in every video there's a crowd of real Americans not putting up with this shit. Pissed off midwesterners who have had enough.
This is patriotism, not the flag waving posing and chest beating of MAGA.

Witkoff Advised Russia on How to Pitch Ukraine Plan to Trump
US presidential envoy Steve Witkoff, fresh from the triumph of the Gaza peace deal, held a phone call last month with a senior Kremlin official to suggest they work together on a similar plan for Ukraine — and that Vladimir Putin should raise it with Donald Trump.

For the [ast few years I've been editing the short fiction for Star Ship Sofa, a venerable SF (not F/H) podcast. It's a small joint, and I've turned it primarily into a reprint market as we can afford only $50 per story.
I've also turned it into a reprint market because writers need money fast. 🧵

The 2025 Worlds Strongest Woman strongwoman competition was last weekend, and the winner was a trans woman, so you can probably guess how toxic the dialogue is there. I feel terrible for what she's going through now after an incredible victory.

An ICE agent was caught removing a sign marking an ICE kidnapping in DC last week! Do we think he did it out of anger, embarrassment, or most appropriately shame? If you think what you’re doing is right, why are you trying to hide the evidence? 👀

Peter's probably right here. The article can't fully answer the headline's question, but I don't think we'll ever get a truly full and satisfying answer on 'why' when it comes to RKF Jr.
I’ve been waiting for an article like this for some time, and while it’s not what I was hoping for — which, on reflection, would be kind of a supervillain’s monologue, which don’t actually happen — it may be the best we’ll ever get. Gift link:

I haven't seen a picture of Chip in a while but he kind of looks like a slowly melting wax figure of himself these days.
NEWS: The Raiders are firing offensive coordinator Chip Kelly, per source.
Kelly signed a contract to make him the richest offensive coordinator in football this offseason, but is dismissed after just 11 games.

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

If shes quitting after 5 years and 1 day so she can collect government benefits that's honestly hilarious.
Noting the congressional pension is based on service time, it kicks in at 5 years and her retirement date - Jan. 5, 2026 - will be the first business day after she passes five years since her first swearing in. bsky.app/profile/heli...
Any idea why she's quitting then? Her statement isn't very coherent (big surprise), although it would make more sense as an explanation of just not running for re-election.

It is particularly galling that Trump is calling for the execution of people who actually served honorably in the military, while he took a bone spur exemption and famously boasted that his Vietnam was dodging syphilis in 70s New York.

It's absurd that this is being spun as a compromise when Trump's proposal is complete capitulation.
Russia would get all the territory it wants and immense soft power in Ukraine, and Ukraine would be crippled and banned from NATO in exchange for a promise Russia will certainly break.
