This is truly the stupidest concept in the world. During the Cuban Missile Crisis, the clock stayed at seven minutes to midnight . . . and moved back at the next review to twelve minutes.
BREAKING: The “Doomsday Clock” has moved to 85 seconds to midnight, the closest it’s ever been.
There is zero room in our country for this behavior. Prosecute to the maximum.
Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar sprayed by a man wielding a syringe with an unknown liquid during a town hall event in Minneapolis, while calling for the resignation of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.
Sean Payton said he regretted the play call more than the decision to go for it on 4th and 1. I think @Tyler_Polumbus and I are in the minority that agree with the aggressiveness, but we, like Sean, hated the play call. @guerillasports #BroncosCountry
Taking off my weather hat for a moment for something more important than the forecast…today is Holocaust Remembrance Day. I’ve shared before that my grandparents (mom’s side) are both Holocaust survivors. Please do me a favor and read their story in this thread.
Mayhem coming out of the Scarlet Begonias jam on 3/27/25. Sphere absolutely electric. A woman nearby screaming, I’m so excited I’m singing the last verse again, the infamous “we got bears in space”. A five alarm fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Medical associations need to come down on this so hard that the fallout can be seen from space Medical workers who flirt with this kind of behavior are eroding a foundational brick of modern civilization
Meet Erik Martindale, a registered Florida nurse. He says he won’t give anesthesia for Republicans undergoing surgery and believes that’s his right and is ethical. He needs to be fired and stripped of his license immediately. @FLNursingBoard
This is not the America I know, or the America that ought to be.
My mom was stopped and harassed by masked ICE agents while shopping at an outlet mall in Texas. Because she has an accent, they assumed she spoke Spanish and started talking to her in Spanish. When she said she doesn’t speak Spanish, they began demanding where she was “from,”…
The topic of immigration enforcement is like the right’s version of Covid hysteria. “What, do you want millions of Americans to die from illegal immigrants?” “Just obey orders and you’ll be fine. Do your part.” “Your rights aren’t absolute. Government officials are acting…
I try to refrain from hyperbole when weighing in on contentious social media debates, because often the truth is somewhere in the middle. For instance, while the death of Renee Good was very sad, I think it's quite plausible the officer had a reasonable justification in the…
Mark Carney's speech, and Donald Trump's blunderbussing, foreshadow future ruptures. reason.com/2026/01/22/the…
You mean I killed Steve Hitler for nothing?!
The most fun thing you could do in the whole world would be to kill Hitler. And not just any Hitler. Adolf Hitler.
Then why have signed bills attacking oil and gas, gas furnaces and water heaters, forced good landlords to pay even more money to the state, taken away plastic bags, restricted access to guns, made us the 6th most regulated state in the NATION, all while driving up the cost of…
I believe in freedom, competition, and limited government. Too often in Washington, we’re seeing the opposite — the government picking winners and losers, intruding into personal decisions, and putting politics between people, their doctors, and their livelihoods. That’s not…
Kenny Lofton deserves to go in, too.

It is a moral and legal obscenity for the papers-please cops to harass and detain U.S.-citizen Native Americans. This may end *very* badly for restrictionists and their hired muscle.
A citizen of Navajo Nation was detained by ICE in Phoenix. Peter Yazzie was reportedly carrying a tribal ID, but was still violently arrested. An officer put a knee on Yazzie’s back, which can be lethal because it can cut off a person’s breathing. azcentral.com/story/news/pol…
Baker Mayfield without Stefanski + the Browns: • 63 games • 14,400 pass yards • 113 TDs, 47 INTs, • 69.1% completion • 2 other playoff appearances Kevin Stefanski without Baker: • 1 playoff appearance (Lost 45-14) • 26-43 record (.376) • 10 different starting QBs
Failed is quite the reach pal. Still waiting on a text/call from him after I got shipped off like a piece of garbage. Can’t wait to see you twice a year, Coach.
#Falcons’ Kevin Stefanski had a dumpster fire at quarterback in Cleveland -- Baker Mayfield and Deshaun Watson failed, which started a chain reaction to 11 other starters. QB Shedeur Sanders closed out last season with seven starts. ajc.com/sports/2026/01…
The project for the next hours, days, weeks, and years is to remove monarchical power from the presidency. We have long since crossed into Mad King territory.
#UPDATE Donald Trump on Monday threatened 200 percent tariffs on French wine and champagne over France's intentions to decline the US president's invitation to join his "Board of Peace" ➡️ u.afp.com/SBSX
Here is your reminder that the president is instituting these tariffs using emergency powers. Whatever your views on trade, there is no serious argument that acquiring Greenland is a national emergency.
BREAKING: President Trump announces a 10% tariff on Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the UK, Netherlands, and Finland beginning February 1st. This tariff will be increased to 25% beginning on June 1st. Tariffs will remain in effect until the US reaches a deal to buy…
