What's astonishing is not just that it's openly stated, but that he doesn't realise that feeling, speaking and acting this way is likely to have disastrous consequences for the very cause he's defending: 'Even if the price is killing women or children, it doesn't interest me.'

Former U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and longtime State Dept. official Victoria Nuland debate international relations scholars Stephen Walt and John Mearsheimer, co-authors of The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy, on whether “Iran is a monster.”

This is the perfect visualization of his reality, an impenetrable gold palace from which he can’t be ejected. He believes the world has completely oriented around his personal delusions. He is an extremely disturbed man, There is no more dangerous cocktail of psychopathologies.

This is an official government account in a democracy. This is what Orbanism looks like. The president bragging, via AI video, that he forced a comedian who mocked him off the air and ‘into the trash’.

Scientists are wary of glyphosate. MAHA loathes it. And our yearlong investigation shows California is spraying it everywhere. motherjones.com/politics/2026/…

Meet the billionaires, corporations and war hawks pushing for Trump to invade Cuba.

An utter and blatant lie - and everyone, including this joker, knows it How, exactly, is a small country brought to its knees by relentless embargoes and blockades any threat to the US? This is a lie used to justify an attack - nothing more or less bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

It's actually a very bad sign that this entire thing is now being framed as a controversy about whether money should go to J6ers who assaulted police. The entire fund is bad and corrupt! Carving out violent J6ers does not make the $1.8 billion slush fund okay!

You'll want to be sitting down for this bit. Water companies are currently £82.7 billion in debt, have paid themselves £85 billion in dividends, leak over a trillion of litres of water per year, dump sewage for almost 4 million hours per year, have been convicted of over 1,200 criminal acts since 1989 and an average of 35% of your bill goes on nothing but paying more interest and yet more dividends. And not a single company has ever lost their operating licence. 👇

🇲🇽 "It's one thing to collaborate, it's another thing to open the door to your house, then they start making the food, take over your kitchen, your living room and start issuing orders from your home... That's the story of U.S. agencies worldwide. They come to take over the house, to say: well now I'm in charge," stated the Mexican President.

The line of people applying for Trump's $1.8 billion slush fund is a real who's-who of "Oh yeah, that f**king weirdo"

Locals didn’t think Roundup was being sprayed near Lake Tahoe. So @natethecurious went to find out. Nate dug up maps from the Forest Service's website, and headed to a spot where one of them indicated spraying might already be happening. Public uproar has echoed across the Tahoe area since April, when our yearlong Mother Jones investigation revealed that, in California, the fastest-growing use of glyphosate—the main ingredient in Roundup—is to spray forested areas, including this massive new project around Lake Tahoe. As the public outcry grew over the past few weeks, news begin circulating on social media that the Forest Service was backing off. “They cancelled the plan!" one person wrote. "People showed up to meetings, called our representatives and it’s finally cancelled. OUR VOICES MATTERED ON THIS ONE.” But that wasn't true. At Sierra-at-Tahoe, Nate stood on a mountainside that clearly had been doused in glyphosate. The plants around him were nearly all dead—killed with the controversial herbicide, which the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer has deemed a probable human carcinogen—and that a 2020 report from the US Environmental Protection Agency said likely harms 93 percent of endangered species.

Israel wants to convince the world that its national security minister does not represent Israel, while half of the members of the Israeli security cabinet and its prime minister are wanted as war criminals by the International Criminal Court.
