@DrewPavlou This is strictly government sanctioned discouragement of young men signing up for the military. It’s insane when you think about it.

BREAKING: Left wing Australian journalists travelled to Afghanistan in 2024 to ask the Taliban to assist war crimes investigations against Australian soldiers including Ben Roberts-Smith. Saturday Paper writer Michelle Jasmin Dimasi said the Taliban men she interviewed were very supportive. My country is going fucking insane.

Doris Kearns Goodwin and Jon Meacham join Ari and Ben to debate which historic figures deserve to be on the Mount Rushmore of U.S. Non-Presidents. Legacies examined. Impact measured. History debated. But only 4 will be etched in Rushmore history. Presented by @Polymarket

@timbhealey @LouMerloni I feel for Roman but the dye was cast in the offseason. The power gap between the Sox and the Padres is enormous. We used to get guys like that. They’ll bounce Breslow soon, but it won’t change a damn thing - that’s a bad and boring baseball team.

@ProV1Smile Full respect. The cold beer - not in the airport bar - but when you get back to your neighborhood pub, after you take your in-laws to the airport.

@PaulEmbery I’m older now and used to get in at 9 AM back in the day - the grand 80’s. Now I hit the hay happily at 9 PM. Those were the times.

When I was growing up, pubs would often be rammed until closing time (not so much during the week, but certainly at weekends). The bell for “last orders” would usually spark a rush to the bar. These days, even the most popular pubs seem to start emptying out around 8.00-9.00pm, including on Fridays and Saturdays. Has anyone else noticed this phenomenon? Is there a reason for it?

Boston, you're going to love this one 🦞 The Red Sox will be serving "Lobstah Poutine" at Fenway Park this year! This ballpark food features crispy fries, lobster meat, clam chowder and crispy bacon all served in a custom lobster boat 🤤 (Via: @Aramark)

The one hit wonder Irish rock band “The Dropkick Murphy’s” are headlining the “No Kings Rally” in Boston on March 28th. It would be a shame if everyone shared this past about these woke disgraces to the USA! Let’s ship them off to China! #FuckTheDropkickMurphys

@largelebowski @BradOnMessage ICE is funded through 2029 so what’s the point? Why force us into five hour airport lines and shut down the Coast Guard because you can?

Who's going to stick a mic in Jon Ossoff's face and make him defend what he's doing to Georgians in this airport? Or are we gonna interview the people in line & ask if they are mad at Ossoff? Or are we not doing that in this particular shutdown, unlike the prior ones?

Y'all... I've NEVER seen Hartsfield Jackson this bad. This is what security looks like this morning (Friday). We've talked to people that got to the airport at 3am that missed their 6am flight. @ATLNewsFirst @GAFollowers

Everyone says “AI will take all the jobs.” If that happens… how does this future actually work? No jobs → no income → no spending. So who buys things? Who pays rent? Who keeps the economy moving? What am I missing here?

@jemelehill @HeilmanJoseph Clearly, colleges and universities have no response to AI. The more the technology rises, the more young Americans will shun academia. Most schools will be hollowed out husks 10 years from now.

Notice how really rich people keep encouraging people to go into trades, but none of them would want that for their own children. There’s nothing wrong with trades, but what they’re really trying to do is create a nation of service workers and laborers. People who remain in service to them. They want a much wider wealth gap than there is now. That’s why suddenly they are so anti-college and are trying to break the university system.
