A major French diplomat once got into trouble for calling Israel "a shitty little country." He suggested that Israel caused more trouble in the world than it was worth. That was 25 years ago. It's much shIttier now, accusing everyone who says so of being a terrorist or an antisemite. BACK THE ICC.

That’s because we have human empathy. Musk, Trump, Putin, and all such sociopaths, narcissists, Fascists & NAZIS, don’t feel nor believe in empathy; being too self-important to ever need empathy themselves. Neither Trump, Putin, nor Musk lie awake at night worrying about the millions they’ve killed.

More (unshocking) corruption: Elon Musk’s company, SpaceX, holds billions of dollars in military contracts, and Hegseth just invited him back into the Pentagon to help strategize about the future of warfare. Max Stier writes all about it:

Elon Musk already ravaged our government once. He’s at it again, this time at the Pentagon.

The UK has banned me from entering their country. I can’t even land to switch planes…

But it didn’t end there. I am now stuck in Warsaw because

 has an “issue” with me flying. I’ve missed two flights because of unknown reasons.

As much as I love Poland I’ve been away from home for two weeks. I wasn’t even given the common courtesy to be notified in advance about this issue. Now I’m stuck abroad.

@USAmbPoland
 can I get some assistance here?

Did cutting off US military and economic assistance "soften" Putin's position? Did denying Ukraine any chance of NATO membership "soften" Putin's position? These guys have no clue about how Putin thinks.

🚨 WOW: WSJ reports Ken Paxton partied in a luxury Dubai high-rise with 2 FUGITIVES, Anosh Ahmed and Sameer Suhail, facing fed charges over an alleged $15 MILLION hospital embezzlement scheme — alongside his gf (not his wife). Ahmed donated $190K to Paxton, including $25K AFTER his indictment.

He didn't send agents after a criminal. He sent them after a Congresswoman who talks back. On the eve of an election. That's not law enforcement — that's an abuse of power with a badge. We stand with Ilhan Omar.

Saudi Arabia after Israel is the biggest source of evil in the Middle East. It is getting its comeuppance for waging a genocidal war against Yemen. And of course we rush in to help the bad guy.

This morning, the federal government turned the full force of the Department of Homeland Security against a sitting member of Congress for the offense of disagreeing with the White House.

The path to citizenship should not be weaponized against anyone, including Rep. Ilhan Omar, a naturalized American who swore an oath to this country — the same one that I took.

The promise of citizenship should not be contingent on someone agreeing with the federal government.

TEXAS IS IN PLAY! Gina Hinojosa’s latest internal poll has her clocking Greg Abbott! 🔵 Hinojosa: 47% 🔴 Abbott: 45% Why do internal polls matter? Campaigns use them to identify weaknesses, target persuadable voters, and this one reinforces recent public polls showing a VERY competitive race.

Anyone else think we’re headed for a massive data center bubble? We’re going to end up with a bunch of empty, useless data centers. 🇺🇸 US: 5,427 data centers 🇨🇳 China: 449 data centers The U.S. already has 46% of the world’s data centers. This is insanity.
