Set aside Sen. Mike Lee's storm of lies and incitement here. Lee literally made jokes on Twitter about the fmr Speaker of the Minnesota state house being murdered in her home by a right wing extremist. Hard to imagine any more twisted and malicious person in public life.

The Post and Matt Viser are suggesting that 22 yrs ago someone impersonated Donald Trump in response to a request from Ghislaine Maxwell to Trump and created a fake card to embarrass him 22 yrs later when he would be President. I'm not going to dignify this nonsense with anything but laughter

I hadn’t driven much in the last few weeks. So turns out the price of gas has gone up like a lot.

I didn't know there was an audience, i.e., me, for the global fail tour (GFT) that Donald Trump has sent JD Vance on.

Telling that as big of a piece of shit as orban is, he managed to concede to defeat. Something Trump has never been able to do. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/12/w...

Quite apart from the severity of the alleged wrongdoing, irrespective of that, I'm not sure I've ever seen a politician's campaign/career implode this fast. It usually takes the loyalists and staffers at least a bit longer to jump ship. Remarkable.

In decisive challenge to Iran, US takes over Gulf blockade

Tho obvious, it's worth noting that a naval blockade is not an obvious solution to restoring the flow of oil out of the Persian Gulf. There may be a logic but not a straightforward one. They say hope is not a plan. No plan is also not a plan. Improvising as you go has uncertain and chaotic results.

who's tried? curious what you think. www.azcentral.com/story/entert...

We are witnessing the rapid Marco-nization of JD Vance. Lil JD.
