I'm just your typical, Zen Buddhist, Conservative, Socrates. My allegiance is to facts and reality, not a party and certainly not a politician.

The only way this could possibly be real is if Catherine's friend has never ordered a drink at a Chili's or bought her own booze at a liquor store

A friend asks: “Has it occurred to anyone that the MAGAs think you have to show IDs at restaurants because they’ve been eating all their meals at strip clubs? This isn’t even an unreasonable theory”
English
@Tara_lyn1 @bonchieredstate @NewAmygator That was not a typo but a complete misrepresentation of when IDs need to be used in restaurants. We should expect better communication from our leaders.
English
@EricGreenbaum @bonchieredstate @NewAmygator It’s textbook midwittery to harp on a typo/misspeak to avoid actually responding to the argument.

Is this supposed to be funny?
(And they were talking about alcohol purchases)

@ThomasEWoods @RichardHanania Or perhaps he's the idiot for phrasing it in such a bad way. Smart people should expect better from their leaders.

What an amazing clip.
This is the essence of Tuckerism.
NYT asks him why he called Trump the Antichrist.
He says he never said it.
NYT shows a clip.
Tucker says he doesn’t know what the Antichrist is.
Jesus Christ.
What a snivelling coward.

@bonchieredstate @NewAmygator Yes we're idiots because we interpreted exactly what he said
English
@NewAmygator I know politics is cutthroat and being purposely obtuse. But you aren’t an idiot, and it’s obvious what he was talking about.
Not everything is a dunk moment.

@sunnyright @bonchieredstate That's not the way he phrased it at all. He said everytime.

Bulwark editors unfamiliar with the concept of having to provide an ID to order beer at an Applebees, because they usually just get their alcohol at the Democratic cocktail parties

The good news is my students were able to assemble a compost bin without instructions this morning. The bad news is they think I’m making up The Carpenters. Yes, the band.

@Emmanuel_jesse1 @Breaking911 On what basis do you say that is true?
English
@Breaking911 Iran has learnt their lessons it's time to let go because everyone is suffering from it now
English
Gen. Jack Keane argues that the Iranian regime’s disregard for human suffering makes a diplomatic agreement unrealistic, saying the U.S. and Israel should return to their original objectives and complete the mission decisively.

@atwaSDOK @bonchieredstate I was actually talking about the governor and the shitty things he’s done here.

150,000 dead, 14 million displaced: The story of Sudan’s war An estimated 150,000 people have been killed and more than 14 million displaced. Sudan’s current war has become one of the world’s worst humanitarian disasters, with 2 rival factions, both accused of widespread atrocities, fighting for control of the country. The conflict has just entered its 4th year. It began in April 2023 when a fragile power-sharing arrangement between the Sudanese Armed Forces led by Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and the Rapid Support Forces commanded by Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo collapsed into open warfare. What began as a struggle between 2 former allies has devastated the country. The 2 sides had jointly helped remove former ruler Omar al-Bashir in 2019 and later shared power after a military takeover in 2021. But tensions deepened over plans to merge the RSF into the regular army, command structures, and control of Sudan’s political transition, eventually erupting into war in the capital Khartoum. The conflict has since spread across Darfur, Kordofan and central Sudan. Cities, hospitals, markets and infrastructure have been destroyed, while famine and acute hunger have spread across several regions. Both factions have been accused by rights groups of ethnic killings, rape, looting, indiscriminate attacks and blocking aid. Diplomatically, neither side offers a clean option. The RSF, rooted in the Janjaweed militias tied to past Darfur atrocities, has faced severe accusations of massacres and ethnic killings. The SAF has also been accused of strikes on civilian areas and other abuses. Some Western governments are seen as more open to the RSF, while the SAF faces scrutiny over Islamist influence, Muslim Brotherhood links and Iranian IRGC support. Bottom line, neither side are heroes. And there is no end in sight.

@Qbamash @TheMossadIL Once again, WHY are 'we' only talking about Israel and not Sudan?
English
@EricGreenbaum @TheMossadIL We are talking about Isreal for now, those that Isreal is heavily Involved in, all others will be discussed after the war against Isreal is won in the middle east
English
@Qbamash @TheMossadIL Is this sardonic, if not then why is talking about Sudan for later discussion.
English
@TheMossadIL We will discuss Sudan, however for now we are discussing ISREAL

@JonahDispatch The way Stalin quietly deleted Trotsky's photos from all Russian records.
English
This isn’t really a criticism, but it occurs to me that “quietly deleted” is now the established phrasing for clearing old posts without issuing some kind of formal statement about it. Never mind that deleting stuff doesn’t make a sound. And telling the world you’re deleting stuff you don’t want to call attention to (which is why you’re deleting it!) would be weird. If Orwell was writing Politics and the English Language today, he might include “quietly deleted” as one of the stale euphemisms to avoid.

CNN: As Democrats brace for a bruising primary in Michigan’s US Senate race, Mallory McMorrow, one of the party’s top contenders, has quietly deleted thousands of old tweets — including posts in which she took jabs at the rural Midwest, lamented ever leaving California, and said she continued to vote there after she said she’d moved permanently to Michigan. cnn.com/2026/04/29/pol…
