By making American commerce dependent on Russian diesel fuel?

Geoff Bee @firingorder1432.bsky.social · 09/10/2026
Yeah, now when Ukraine attacks Russian fuel refineries, they'll be directly attacking US supply. This is Putin's plan, to align US consumer interest with Russia's military objectives.

I'm in MI and voted for Abdul. Nobody asked me, but I think the "medicare for all, money out of politics, money in your pocket" is bullshit simplistic pandering. This is what I don't agree with.

Unfortunately the GOP will no compunctions at all about spending money from *any* source when they launch the inevitable negative campaign against El-Sayed.

Geoff Bee @firingorder1432.bsky.social · 06/07/2026
Slotkin only beat Rogers by 0.3% of the vote. Whether El-Sayed can prevail against Rogers depends on a few factors: * Unmotivated Republican midterm voters * GOP negative campaigning doesn't work * Increased turnout among progressive voters * Centrist Democrats don't sit out the general election
000
Geoff Bee @firingorder1432.bsky.social · 30/06/2026
In 2024 Slotkin beat Rogers by 0.3%. It's increasingly looking like it'll be a El-Sayed/Rogers contest this year. I'm not sure I would have chosen this strategy, but it will be very interesting to see how a more progressive Democratic candidate fares against the *same* Republican in 2026.

so, sanctions lifted, $300 billion plus frozen assets, nothing about cutting off funding for Iranian proxy militias, punting on what to do with existing nuclear material.

Add to this that Iran surely recognizes that US domestic pressure will additionally weaken Trump's bargaining position over time. There's little incentive for Iran to agree to a deal today if they think they'll get a better one tomorrow.

Around here there's an unwritten rule that, after a light turns red, drivers have a couple seconds to get through. I'm gonna sound like a prude, but the brazen phone scrolling while driving and weed smell at stoplights really has me concerned for my safety while bicycling and walking.

As a man, I appreciate that she's holding this nepo creeper to account. The Roadkill Chef's policies are broadly anti-science and there are plenty of selfish reasons for men to despise this guy also. I also can't believe that 51% of white women voted for Trump in 2024.

This is all true, and we also have a relatively fragile political system that's a huge attack surface for populist politicians. For starters, the popular election of the executive leaves a huge opening. First-past-the-post doesn't help either.

The implications of this could be huge if Trump realizes he's been manipulated by Netanyahu. We could easily have an environment in the Middle East that combines an emboldened Iran, a more defensive Saudi Arabia, and an Israel that's less responsive to US influence and control.

If Trump's looking for an exit strategy from the Iran debacle, Hegseth is the perfect fall guy. At the very least, he could pin responsibility on Hegseth and pivot to a peacemaking strategy. While blaming Hegseth for strategic errors, of course.

Hegseth's approach is fundamentally making American citizens less safe. His eagerness to do war crimes against other people risks an escalation in which American citizens are more likely to suffer terrorist attacks within the US.

Exactly this. The implications of the language were clear and understood 150 years ago.
