@Corballyred Lacks the thunderous tackle. More like Gini with Stevie’s shot

I'm taking ownership of the Gerrard Szoboszlai comparison😄 That post aged well👇

@Reunify32 I really wish nationalists would stop mocking unionists who participate. It’s buck stupid

Without SF in attendance at US events this week unionists had no idea how to distinguish themselves from everyone else, and were therefore simply treated as being Irish and told to sit in front of tricolours 🇮🇪 all day.

@mattyglesias And Newsom’s record is “whatever you’re having yourself” - hardly the values-anchored response to Trump’s amoral “fire sale!” Politics

Gavin Newsom is yet another case of an establishment politician who leftists don't like but who's actual record and image is very left. Obama was the opposite — moderate on most things, but *liked* by progressive activists because he'd opposed Iraq.

@mattyglesias Well, he did also oppose 300 years of hysterical anti-blackness. Hardly a Sunday stroll side gig

@columeastwood Literally not at all interesting.

Joking aside - it is interesting that even President Trump, possibly the least likely of any modern president, seems to have a natural predisposition toward Irish unity.

@conor64 @megbasham Bro, I thought we’d agreed not to mention the secret trove of unpublished blockbuster scoops?!

You're a bestselling author and journalist, and you didn't know about Cesar Chavez. I have worked at The Atlantic for 15 years and I did not know about this. Do you think that when you get hired at "legacy" outlets there's... what... a secret trove of unpublished blockbuster scoops that they show you? I don't even understand what claim you're making.

I have no problem believing that Cesar Chavez was a sexual abuser. I have a very hard time believing that the legacy media just discovered this.

@scuge36 @mooreholmes24 His teacher gave him these lines in detention and he was in a rage thereafter

Chris actually proves his version of Irish not to be inclusive, but elitist. He mistakes St Patrick, and the Belfast City parade, to be a purely ‘Irish celebration’, in which other identities are generously permitted to take part in. That actually diminishes the British dimension to the St Patrick story and those of a British identity, who celebrate St Patrick as their Saint as well. St Patrick doesn’t belong to the Irish alone, he is a shared and inclusive figure, mistakenly and anachronistically hijacked by nationalists. In truth, St Patrick is a powerful symbol of the historical relationship between the people across the British Isles and just how connected they have been for thousands of years. Quintessentially British. That the St Patrick’s Day Parade has not displayed that element to it only until this year, demonstrates a lack of inclusion. Well done to the Imperial Guards.

@KirbyODonnell22 @mooreholmes24 Then why does every rebel song mention them?

@mooreholmes24 There is no British dimension to Ireland and Irishness.

@mooreholmes24 The giveaway; “inclusion” for some unionists means “Irishness” as a subset of Britishness, not a distinction or peer. Which is exactly what the nationalist movement was created to resist and break from.

@mooreholmes24 Suggesting the national patron saint has been hijacked by nationalists is a little silly.

@clairlemon Imagine fashioning yourself as a public intellectual - and name calling is your contribution. You’re an imposter and a poseur

@sinnfeinireland @Donnchadhol You wasted it! At least he showed up.

Micheál Martin wasted unique opportunity to speak in defence of international law in meeting with Donald Trump – @Donnchadhol “Irish people expect better than the Taoiseach turning the other way.” sinnfein.ie/news/micheal-m…

@mooreholmes24 There was a time one couldn’t even seriously advocace for this merger without being labeled divisive. Now it’s so normalized, the U.S. president is joking about it. In 5 years it will be an acquisition.

The actual story here is Emma Little Pengelly, representing Northern Ireland in the White House, making a positive impression and being warmly received. That’s leadership being recognised on an international stage. But the usual clickbait crowd will be all over this, wringing every last drop out of a throwaway remark like it’s some great constitutional or embarrassing moment. It’s not. If people want to get worked up over Donald Trump joking about “mergers”, they’re actually missing the point. Even he, in the same sentence, shows no real interest in it and quickly moves on. Complete nothing burger. But watch the media and others try to make it into something it isn’t.

@PodSaveAmerica @jonfavs Concerning Dem bros think the other side need to reflect on 2024 some more. Guys, name one lesson you have learned from losing?!

Let's hope Joe Rogan can bring this energy into the 2028 election.

@mattyglesias Prisons are mental hospitals with lots of Jack Nicholson characters saying, oh fuck

I am really begging people to look into this more closely

@VFerrerNow everyone is African by ancestral origin but humans become “Indigenous” to other continents through long-term habitation

@NoneOfferer Mongolians who walked over a land bridge to get here and then, in nearly all their oral traditions, state people were already here and they murdered ALL of them - no Casinos for them - Mongolians from Siberia aren't "indigenous"-being cannibals and loving torture were a neg too

The only “heritage” Americans are native Americans from the indigenous tribal nations.

@AppletoZucchini @NYMag Whataboutery- always

@NYMag Why are they not being patriated in Egypt or Jordan? Why does Egypt have a more robust wall with Gaza than Israel ever did?

Palestinians in the West Bank face a double bind: Relinquish their homes to Israeli settlers, becoming either displaced within Palestine or international refugees; or remain on their land, perpetually vulnerable to surveillance, attack, and intimidation. Disruption of the olive harvest is both a means of land dispossession and a form of regimented impoverishment. Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians rely on income from olive farming, and an estimated 70 percent of their harvest was threatened in 2025. At the end of the season, the U.N. reported 178 settler attacks. Farmers and their families, including children, were killed by gunfire and tear gas. Centuries-old olive trees were razed. Thousands of acres were burned, bulldozed, or blocked off for Israeli “military use.” Since then, the violence hasn’t died down: In February, settlers reportedly destroyed seven Palestinian villages in a single week. At the same time, Israel continues to exert ever tighter control over the West Bank, making it more difficult for Palestinians to retain their land. The writer Jasmine Sanders traveled to the West Bank to volunteer during the 2025 olive-harvest campaign. “My experience of the olive harvest was one of queasy liminality,” she writes. “Not war, and yet not peace: the bracingly quotidian terror of life under threat from settlers and amid Israeli military occupation, which is now the longest such occupation in history.” Read more about her experience: nymag.visitlink.me/e43Mea

@JFGariepy Harris’ takeaway from this - Tucker’s insufficient deference to OT barbarity, rather than Huck’s barbarous suggestion that Israel should ‘do a Gaza’ across the ME - is wild. How sectarian must one become to miss the actual scandal here?

We have gone full circle: a horseman of New Atheism is now complaining that Tucker is too dismissive of the old testament. This tells you all you need to know about what militant atheism truly is. x.com/MakingSenseHQ/…
