Over the last year, the growth in military expenditure around the world and Europe has been enormous. Rearmament increases tensions and insecurity, drains investments from education and healthcare, undermines trust in diplomacy, and enriches elites who care nothing for the common good. This should not be called “defense.”

What kind of world are we leaving behind? Unfortunately, it is a world distorted by war and war-like language. This pollution of reason comes from the geopolitical sphere and invades every social relationship. Any simplification that creates enemies must be corrected, especially in universities, through complexity of thought and wise exercise of memory.

Better late than never—Trump joins our effort to suspend the federal gas tax & provide some relief from skyrocketing gas prices that he’s caused with his chaotic costly war of choice. The real relief is ending the war. nbcnews.com/politics/white…

The Lord commands us to love one another as He has loved us (cf. Jn 13:34): it is the love of Jesus that gives birth to love in us. Christ Himself is the criterion of true love: love that is faithful forever, pure and unconditional, love that gives without wanting to possess. #GospelOfTheDay

@FoxNewsSunday @FoxNews in 2018 I attended a graduation at Salve Regina and the speaker was the head of a museum in DC and the entire speech was anti-Trump. Everybody was floored. It did not follow Christian values

Reminder: even though nearly half of New England is conservative/Republican, Democrats have gerrymandered the GOP to zero house seats in the entire region.

This is now the fifth time large oil trades hit minutes before a major Iran announcement
Today: $700M in crude oil futures placed right before news of a U.S.-Iran deal sent oil down ~7%
The DOJ is now investigating the previous four trades totaling $2.6 billion
• March 23: $500M, 15 minutes before Trump delayed Iran strikes
• April 7: $960M, hours before the ceasefire
• April 17: $760M, 20 minutes before the Strait of Hormuz reopened
• April 21: $430M, 15 minutes before Trump extended the ceasefire
Someone keeps knowing before the rest of the world

@SenBlumenthal Trying to shock people-go after the non profits that syphoned our tax dollars -They’re using money that was donated to build it

The estimated cost for the Lafayette Square project was $3.3M.
The firm building Trump’s ballroom got the contract without bidding & now it will cost taxpayers $17.4M.
I’m demanding answers to understand if Clark’s unilateral selection is a reward for building the ballroom.

One thing I love about social media is how the marvelous technology delivers ads for decisions I’m just starting to think about. Efficient.

@ChrisMurphyCT Trump is saving the world from terrorist while others are robbing from the tax payers

Every week, we force a vote on the Senate floor to end the war in Iran. While there are signs Republicans are starting to break, so far we can't get to 50. But we will keep trying. Because the Iran war cost crisis is getting devastating for American families.

@TonyDeAngelo7 @ChrisMurphyCT Plus in ct they pay local property tax for equipment and real estate, unemployment tax, gas tax for fuel, highway tax for trucks, I’m sure there is tax in the utilities they use and must have Aflac or ct pd lv on and on

Idiot.
Each one of these corporations paid 7.65% of each and every one of their employee salaries
A conservative estimate of that sum combined would be 150 Billion Dollars. ($150,000,000,000)
They also pay sales taxes. A low guess on that would be 60 Billion Dollars. ($60,000,000,000)
These entities also purchase hard assets, creating jobs for others. And they depreciate the assets for tax purposes.
Depreciation is a tax-book entry deduction
(Oh sorry, you understand nothing about taxation, either).
Honestly Chris, you are better off not speaking, because when you do, it removes all doubt as to how little you know about anything at all.

Kohl's
Palantir
PayPal
PG&E
Southwest Airlines
Tesla
United Airlines
Disney
paid ZERO corporate income tax last year.

We must teach in schools the horrors that existed before western civilization. Savagery & poverty is the base condition when you leave out enlightenment and JudeoChristian values.
Humans are flawed and our civilization is imperfect; what happens w/o our principles is FAR worse.

...We will have to wait to see if the administration has a “smoking shell” allegation that makes Comey’s shell speech more menacing as a willful and knowing threat. I cannot imagine what that would be beyond a sleeper surfer hit squad waiting for a shell signal.

As one of his longest and most vocal critics, I would frankly prefer to crawl into one of Comey's conversant shells than write this column. However, here we are. This indictment is unconstitutional and will not likely survive constitutional challenge...jonathanturley.org/2026/04/29/she…
