U.S.-Iran peace talks fail; Trump announces U.S. blockade in Strait of Hormuz; death tolls in Iran, Lebanon reach thousands.
Meanwhile, tankers in Hormuz make last-minute u-turns, and Iran’s internet shutdown breaks global records.

I can't believe I actually have to say this, but apparently I do: someone who is buying compromised Bluesky accounts from an account reseller marketplace is directly funding identity theft, fraud, and international crime. #BadActorBingo resurrection for an explainer of why:

A face plant. A very revealing one.

Prominent Republican member of Armed Services Committee.

He betrays absence of Congressional oversight.

Brennan also asked Turner about absence of any public hearings. His answer was aaaawful (that they've held hearings in past decades).

That said, there's a big difference between 'why didn't this person break the story' and 'why did this person *endorse the candidate they had a pretty good idea what an abuser*'. very different things!

This is former Utah judge Kevin Christensen, charged with 8 counts of child sexual abuse. He's pled to 3 counts, and faces up to 15 years in prison and a $10,000 fine. Not an immigrant. Not a drag queen. Not undocumented.

He is, however, an elected Republican official.

To all those men asking why these women didn’t file police reports, I direct you to the Epstein files as an example. Despite police reports, in some cases depositions under oath and NO justice has been dispensed from a court of law. The women are re-traumatized and the men are free.

Kerry: I was part of the any number of conversations with Netanyahu.

Psaki: Pitching the US strike Iran?

Kerry: Yes, he wanted us to strike. He came to President Obama. He made a presentation to ask to strike. President Obama refused. President Biden refused. President Bush refused.

April 1945: In the final days of World War II, the Führer obsesses over absurdly large monuments for his reimagined Berlin, focusing on an idealized future rather than the reality of his collapsing Reich.

Can a plastic mail-order sex doll be a wiling adult participant in a relationship? Normal people say no but we spent 1600 words talking to Wayne, who lives in his mother’s shed outside of Indianapolis, to take the proposition very seriously, because we have grave perceptual and analytic deficits.

The dildo brigade has come to Los Angeles. Couple dozen people have come to the Metropolitan Detention Center to protest ICE, bringing bags of dildos with them. This is lowkey surreal to see in person

Welp, LAPD is now using the one loophole that prevents press from passing police lines during a dispersal: making an area an emergency operations area. Gonna loop around to see but I’m sure the caution tape will be up outside the MDC. This is how LAPD coordinates to protect DHS and ICE

The shared excitement over NASA’s recent mission compared to the general indifference to SpaceX missions speaks to the power of something seen as the product of communal human effort rather than just the ego and avarice of one obnoxious dork.

Oh no you don't. No no no no no.

I can tolerate Republicans moving on from Bush and the neocons, 9/11 and all that.

But you fucking own Trump from now until the end of time. He told you exactly who he was from day 1 and you voted for him 3 times. That's on YOU.
