"Throw like an American" "You throw like a girl" "Take away your man card" "Chest passes are for pussies" Look at the name and number people

Imagine the headlines if this was happening in Iran, Russia, or China

His Holiness Pope Leo XIV (@Pontifex), I condemn the insult to Your Excellency on behalf of the great nation of Iran, and declare that the desecration of Jesus, the prophet of peace and brotherhood, is not acceptable to any free person. I wish you glory by Allah.

The average Californian mind cannot comprehend the joy of spending every afternoon in the summer watching a giant set of dark clouds and lightning roll in, pouring rain for 25 minutes, and then disappearing - leaving you with a hot, muggy, ozone smelling evening.

Mayoral Obama I fear. He might be ruled out of Presidency but with no term limits on Governor he might run New York for the rest of his life lmao.

the iranian jewish community is one of the oldest jewish communities 😭 they’ve been there for 2k+ years

Iran would be a far better ally for the United States than Israel. Iran produces oil, technology and food. Israel produces nothing.

The ruler is beefing with the pope, his legions have fought to a stalemate with Persia, now typhus is breaking out in a major city, oh yeah it’s late antiquity out there

The pilot is completely fine. Yes, he walked 110 miles and crossed several mountains while mortally wounded. Yes, he's back home and safe and sound and enjoying life and proud to have served. No, you can't see him. No, we can't share his name.

It’s remarkable that Christians can publicly celebrate Easter in Tehran, but not in Jerusalem.

"Art of Deal" Trump regains control of his body and sees what "All Hell will reign in 48 hours" Trump did to his negotiations with Iran.

The chapter about her Mom having to leave South Carolina because she spoke up to a white store owner for treating her poorly & that’s how her Mom ended up in Philadelphia makes this story full circle. Dawn coming back to South Carolina & winning on her ancestral grounds matters.

The regime change happened successfully. MAGA😀

Cyrus, the great Persian king, freed the Jews from oppression. Perhaps if Cyrus had not existed, Judaism might not exist today. Our firm stance is clear: we, the descendants of Cyrus, are not anti-Semitic; we oppose Zionism, genocide, the killing of children, and injustice. Muslims, Zoroastrians, Jews, and Christians—all faiths—stand together against oppression.

In the past 24 hours we’ve learned Trump is talking about firing like 3 different people in the DoJ and now the DNI. So either: * They are refusing to do something very illegal - which for them is a far out line. Or * There is a major intelligence scandal happening and Trump is going to throw people under the bus

A surgeon at my gym took early retirement to go to Palestine & operate on 150+ kids. He’s a maxillofacial specialist & said he’s never seen cruelty like it; the IDF’s ‘game’ is to try & shoot children in the head without killing them. Why won’t you denounce them @Keir_Starmer?

Stone Age? At a time when you were still in caves searching for fire, we were inscribing human rights on the Cyrus Cylinder. We endured the storm of Alexander and the Mongol invasions and remained; because Iran is not just a country, it is a civilization.

The air traffic controller cleared the fire truck onto the runway. Seconds later, the same controller screamed “stop, stop, stop.” The plane was doing 93 to 105 mph. Both pilots are dead. Everyone will frame this as controller error. One controller was simultaneously managing a United flight that aborted takeoff after an anti-ice warning, dispatching a fire truck across an active runway, and sequencing an inbound Air Canada landing at highway speed. At 11:40 PM. On a mandatory overtime shift at a facility that has been understaffed for years. A system that assigns one person that workload will produce exactly this outcome. The only variable is when. The FAA is short approximately 3,000 controllers. The headcount dropped 13% from 2010 to 2024 while flight volume rose 10%. Over 40% of the FAA’s 290 terminal facilities are understaffed. The New York TRACON, which manages the most congested airspace in America across LaGuardia, JFK, and Newark, has been chronically below target. Newark was operating at 59% of its staffing goal. LaGuardia handles 900 flights a day. The hiring pipeline is broken at every stage. Only 2% of applicants complete the full process. Training takes up to 6 years. The FAA Academy in Oklahoma City is a bottleneck, with roughly 35% of trainees washing out. Congress blocked legislation to build a second academy. In one recent hiring cycle, the FAA brought on 1,512 candidates and lost 1,300 in the same window. Net gain: around 160 controllers for an entire country. Three things need to happen and everyone who can make them happen has known for years. Congress needs to fund and authorize a second FAA training academy. One facility in Oklahoma City cannot produce enough controllers for 900 million annual passengers. Members of Congress from Oklahoma have actively blocked this. That needs to end yesterday. The FAA needs to cut certification time. Six years from application to fully certified controller is absurd. The agency’s own data shows tower simulators reduce certification time by 27%. They’ve installed them at 95 facilities. That should be every facility, and the simulated hours should count toward more of the certification requirement. The FAA needs to stop plugging staffing gaps with mandatory overtime. Controllers at understaffed facilities are working six-day weeks rotating between morning, mid, and night shifts. The NTSB has flagged fatigue repeatedly. The controller last night was managing overlapping emergencies during a nighttime operation. Overtime is not a staffing plan. It’s a countdown to the next runway collision. The controller said “I messed up” to a Frontier pilot who watched the whole thing. The pilot responded “No man, you did the best you could.” One of them is right. The answer determines whether this happens again.

Let that sink in… Joe Kent goes onto Tucker, and all but explicitly says that he had evidence and investigatory leads pointing at Israel in the death of Charlie Kirk, and he was not allowed to investigate that. He is not some random dude on a podcast. He was the head of counter-terrorism for the USA, he sat in the best possible seat in the country for judging the credibility of evidence pertaining to foreign involvement in the death of Charlie Kirk. And his investigation was shut down immediately. By ’this FBI’. Somebody call an ambulance for the official narrative. What an interview.

Egypt charge tolls for the Suez Canal. Panama charge fees for the Panama Canal. Turkey charge fees for Bosporus Strait. Canada charge fees for the St Lawrence Seaway. United States charge for the St Lawrence Seaway. Iran kept the Strait toll free for decades and they are somehow still the terrible guys.
