@mjs_DC Pregnancies are way more complicated than the anti-abortion movement ever acknowledged. If they don't modify their bans in a big way they will pay a political price for it.

VOLKER: Trump looks at Russia's war against Ukraine as a matter of who's bigger, who has power. Russia's bigger country, so Russia's going to win. Ukraine should give something up and make peace. Trump can't understand why they're not doing this. And he is making a huge mistake. Russia is not as powerful as Trump thinks. They are completely corrupt and disorganized, poorly led, poorly equipped, poorly trained, and they're not making progress on the battlefield. Moreover, this is a war of choice for Putin that even his own military and population are ambivalent about. Whereas for Ukraine, this is existential. They have got to defend their lives, country, territory, families, and so on. And they've been remarkably determined and ingenious in how they have done that. Trump is getting it wrong when he looks at the conflict as one that Ukraine is destined to lose. Conversely, I think Ukraine is destined to win.

SNYDER: Our entire diplomatic process has been reduced to only two negotiators: president’s son-in-law and president’s friend. They are not diplomats. You would probably say, “That looks incredibly corrupt,” and you would also say, “That looks like it could never work.” And it can never work. It won’t work with Ukraine, it won’t work with Iran. In fact, it has already failed with both Ukraine and Iran. But the deeper problem is that United States cannot help anyone negotiate an end to a war unless United States has clear sense of its own interests. And Trump administration does not operate on the basis of American interests. It operates on the basis of what is convenient for few people around Trump.

WOW 🤯

The human body was not meant to endure 2 trump terms in one lifetime

Can’t we just rebrand solar as “Sun Mining” and turbine farms as “Wind Extraction” to get all the soft-headed right-wing climate crisis deniers on board? It’s not like they’re smart anyway.

Donald Trump ran for office for three reasons: 1) stay out of jail 2) exact revenge on his enemies 3) line his pockets Everything else he says is bullshit.

Pope Leo XIV on AI: “Artificial intelligence needs to be disarmed. The word [disarmed] is strong I know, but deliberately chosen because this moment needs words capable of attracting attention, awakening consciences, and indicating paths forward for humanity.”

Out of the mouths of babes!

In every other modern democratic country in the world, this is how Jan. 6 would've ended.

The only Iran deal Trump is looking for right now is one that will convince anyone outside his cult that he didn’t lose and get humiliated because of stupidity & hubris. Whatever that looks like he would do in a second. The problem is that Iran isn’t cooperating. So here we are.

The Trump influencer machine is REALLY going after Ashley St. Clair right now. It's almost as if the stuff she said about Elon's satellite network hacking the voting machines was a true story
