It’s pretty bad when the only person praising your military doctrine is Vladimir Putin.

Let’s impeach this fascist dictator before it’s too late for American democracy!

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and moral, then it’s not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power. - Dwight Eisenhower

On Paramount’s call this morning, an analyst asked if they would seek to acquire the Discovery Global spinoff if their WBD offer is rejected.

David Ellison said the focus now is on the overall bid.

But the opportunity would still exist for Paramount to acquire CNN, even if the hostile bid fails.

There was a huge crowd at the Indiana Statehouse in opposition of redistricting. Let's see if the Senate listens to Hoosiers or to Washington.

Tom Cotton would not even be in Congress, were it not for the huge defense contractors supporting him from the beginning and keeping him flush with cash.

The beast has made and occupies its lair from within the White House. Beware of its noxious fumes.
Reporter: You said he would have no problem with releasing the full video of that strike on September 2nd

Trump: I didn’t say that. This is ABC fake news. Whatever Hegseth decides is ok with me… Let me just tell you, you are an obnoxious reporter. Actually, a terrible reporter.

v1.111 is live today!

We've upgraded our Age Assurance system to comply with upcoming laws in Australia and other regions, and to restore access to people over 18 in Mississippi.

Plus, we fixed some bugs and laid the groundwork for improved "who to follow" suggestions in the near future.

The U.S. is mirroring a pattern that has happened in authoritarian regimes around the world. When a government erects barriers to reproductive care, it doesn’t just cause death and suffering for women and their families. Such policies are often a first step in the gradual decline of democracies.

One of the UK’s most beautiful mushrooms to my mind, the Wrinkled Peach (Rhodotus palmatus) is much less rare than one might think. I’ve found it in at least 3 different locations. As appetising as it looks, and despite its name, this one is in fact not considered an edible - bitter and rubbery.
