Progressive? Yes. Partisan? No way - partisanship is a wasted effort. I'm more likely to retweet when you use hashtags.








TWO KINGS. 👑


(2/10) In 2022, SpaceX gave the Pentagon an ultimatum: pay roughly $400 million a year for Starlink service in Ukraine—crucial infrastructure the country's military was relying on for battlefield communication—or it would be cut off. Colin Kahl, then Under-Secretary of Defense for Policy, called Elon Musk and pleaded with for more time. Officials told me lives hung in the balance. But they had to be deferential. "Even though Musk is not technically a diplomat or statesman, I felt it was important to treat him as such, given the influence he had on this issue," Kahl told me. A Pentagon official described the dynamic more bluntly: "We are living off his good graces. That sucks."





Jimmy Kimmel defends calling Melania Trump an “expectant widow” after she and Donald Trump demanded ABC fire him: “It was a very light roast joke about the fact that he’s almost 80 and she’s younger than I am. It was not by any stretch of the definition a call to assassination. And they know that,” Kimmel said. “I’ve been very vocal for many years speaking out against gun violence, in particular. But I understand that the First Lady had a stressful experience over the weekend. And probably every weekend is pretty stressful in that house. And also, I agree that hateful and violent rhetoric is something we should reject. I do. And I think a great place to start to dial that back would be to have a conversation with your husband about it.” variety.com/2026/tv/news/j…
