The US State Department is issuing security advisories right now in multiple Middle Eastern nations. Alerts have been sent in at least 9 countries so far.

There were Revolutionary War veterans who lived long enough to be photographed during the Civil War.

It’s insane watching the bulletins and headlines rolling in about a global energy crisis worse than the 1970s and not a single one mentions it’s all been caused by one crazy man for no reason. When Trump finally goes reputations will have been trashed and they’re irrecoverable.

we're supposed to believe the Trump administration has spent more than a year doing a mass deportation of the worst of the worst criminals, but also there are sleeper cells of undocumented Iranians in the country that constitute a grave national security threat. the math ain't mathing.

Absolutely infuriating. The Iranian missile that Hegseth downplayed as a "squirter getting through" killed six Americans and left dozens with traumatic brain injuries, burns and shrapnel in their bodies.

If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected — young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! — and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.

Read this paragraph, please. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/01/b...
Mr. Digre's company has long manufactured speakers in Minnesota for export, including to a major customer in Canada. His firm relies on certain materials from China, the only place to get many small components needed for speakers. But Mr. Digre must now pay a 55 percent tariff on those Chinese imports. As a result, manufacturing for that customer from the United States no longer makes sense. So Mr. Digre has shifted speaker production to a factory in China, where he will export directly to Canada and bypass the United States entirely.

It will hit academic medical centers in particular as they tend to care for a lot of uninsured in addition to Medicaid. Add in that academic medical centers often provide money losing services not provided by others (burn units) and it will be the perfect storm.
