The left was full of crazies, so the right, presumably jealous, banished their sane.

@RT_com You all screamed "war crimes" when Israel got a building next to a consulate. Now you cheer when Iran directly attacks embassies and consulates.

Last year, The Atlantic gave me $10K to gamble with. What started as a journalistic gimmick turned into something more... unnerving. My cover story on the online betting boom warping sports, culture, politics, and the psyches of millions of young men: theatlantic.com/magazine/2026/…

@AustinDunno @bonchieredstate Takes over a year for applications to go anywhere. Russia invaded Georgia soon after, NATO members were split. But for a country to request to join at least means it's close to that alliance. You're being disingenuous.

@CripeHub @bonchieredstate Were those applications accepted? Were both countries already under attack by Russia at that point?

This is an America Delicacy called a Twinkie. Americans eat them for Breakfast and for Lunch and is usually enjoyed with BBQ Sauce or Ketchup. Some Americans like to eat Twinkies raw but the majority of Americans deep fry them in Goose Fat before serving them with Fish.

VP Vance: "Every great world religion including Christianity, the one that I believe in, has understood that there are weird things out there. There are things that are very difficult to explain, and when I hear about extra natural phenomenon, that's where I go to, is the Christian understanding that, there's a lot of good out there, but there's also some evil out there, and I think that one of the devil's great tricks is to convince people he never existed."

JD Vance says he believes UFOs are demons: “I don’t think they’re aliens. I think they’re demons…”

@nypost At some point in the night, after three liters, she stood in line patiently at a hobby lobby to make a purchase. Honestly impressed.

@Lizrael90 @neoavatara @ratlpolicy It's Israel not coordinating. They are weakening Hezbollah relatively, but they could empower LAF instead of also weakening them. The relative power change is why they are able to expel the iranian ambassador and close their border with syria to hez.

@AustinDunno @neoavatara @ratlpolicy I’m not talking about Aoun, I’m talking about Haykal. He will not confront Hezbollah head-on. You can call it disarmament action, but in practice it would probably look like a civil war because there’s no reason yet to believe the LAF has any distinct power advantage.

@Lizrael90 @neoavatara @ratlpolicy Aoun has never said that or anything remotely close Yes, Lebanon wants to avoid a civil war. We had ~30 years of that due mostly to external influence (syria, Palestinians, Israel). Civil war happens when there is a balance of opposing forces. If LAF had a distinct power adv,
