"It seems to me that the last few months...has made it such that Iran is positioned in a way that almost thinks that it has to have a nuclear weapon in order to prevent an attack. I don't know how we get out of this." Eddie Glaude on how Trump’s Iran policy backed us into a corner.

.@cheetah.bsky.social: Don't look, and definitely don't jinx it but Congress just might be showing signs of growing a spine. Republicans decided to call it quits after a series of bills and amendments, including one to fund the ballroom and another that would give money to January 6th-ers.
"This is a coin-operated presidency, and they have the coins... If you have money and you give them money, they'll do what you want." Kara Swisher says tech bros aren’t having second thoughts about Trump’s chaos. They learned the price of admission, and decided it’s worth paying.
Lt. Gen. @markhertling.bsky.social, former commander of U.S. Army Europe, keeps a box of 253 laminated cards in a cigar box on his desk. Each carries the photograph of a young person he served alongside or commanded during combat deployments in Iraq. He shared some of their stories.
Rep. Ted Lieu: "This nearly $1.8 billion taxpayer-funded slush fund is completely unethical and totally ridiculous...The people drafting this document know it's unethical. Acting AG Todd Blanche will lose his law license after his term is over because he's engaging in flatly unethical behavior."
Sen. Alsobrooks: "[Trump] does not give a rat's ass about the American people or the rising costs. Over the last year, the president and this administration have engaged in a tremendous smash-and-grab — enriching themselves, enriching his family, enriching his allies."
Sen. Murphy: "You will not give sanctions relief just in exchange for reopening the strait?" Rubio: "No, that's not been discussed. That has not been offered."
Marco Rubio: "Cuba's always posed a national security threat to the United States. They, by the way, have been one of the leading sponsors of terrorism…Cuba has consistently posed a threat to the national security of the U.S."
Ossoff: "This is what small men like Donald Trump and JD Vance and Stephen Miller will never understand. That our national greatness flows not through our blood or our genes, but through our ideas. Americans are not a race, we're a people united not by ethnicity, but by our shared convictions."
Q: "Are you attending your son's wedding this weekend?" Trump: "Uhhh, he'd like me to go, but it's going to be just a small, little, private affair. I'm gonna try and make it. I said, 'This is not good timing for me.'"

OKC has Hartenstein go with high P&R for Jalen Williams. It's a tiny adjustment but a solid one from OKC and Hartenstein. Wemby stays in a drop, notice Williams wait for the defense to recover. Hartenstein doesn't go Gortat instead gets another piece of Harper, pullup there.
Een moslimvrouw in Groot-Brittannië uitte verwarring over waarom ze niet met haar neef of andere naaste familieleden mag trouwen. Grote delen van de moslimgemeenschap in Groot-Brittannië zetten zich actief in om nevenhuwelijken te normaliseren en de praktijk sociaal aanvaardbaar te maken.
The decision to exclude Eoghan Ó Ceannabháin from the Dublin Central debates just doesn’t make sense. In Galway West, 9 candidates are going head to head in debates, while in Dublin Central only 8 are being given a chance to put forward their perspective.

Roza was recruited from Uzbekistan with promises of a modeling career. Instead, Epstein raped her for years & used her visa to keep her from escaping. He should have been behind bars. Alex Acosta’s sweetheart deal kept him free to continue abusing women and girls like Roza.

Cenk Uygur says that Nancy Mace and Marjorie Taylor Greene are the victims of media hit jobs, because they supported releasing the Epstein files. He says it also happened to him when he ran for Congress. "So as bad as Nancy Mace is, the people doing this are more evil than her."

Steve Bannon's call for ICE at polling locations should alarm every American who believes in free and fair elections. Surrounding voters with law enforcement isn't protection, it's suppression. Every eligible voter deserves to vote without intimidation or fear.
How our president engages with the world reflects our values. The U.S. now gets 30% more for Venezuelan oil than Venezuela did before we captured Maduro. Was it ever about human rights, or just resources?
