Ukrainian sanctions are kicking in—Russian gas stations are swamped with huge lines after drone strikes knocked out multiple refineries. In Primorsky Krai, queues stretch for kilometers. In Zabaikalsky, fuel’s only sold by coupons. Even Crimea’s running low.

As a former Texas State Rep, let me be clear: LOCKING Rep. Nicole Collier inside the chamber is beyond outrageous. Forcing elected officials to sign “permission slips” & take police escorts to leave? That’s not procedure. That’s some old Jim Crow playbook.

French Minister for European Affairs Benjamin Haddad said Paris rejects the idea of Ukraine’s demilitarization, stressing that strengthening its army is one of the key guarantees of security. He added that any peace agreement must include clear security guarantees for Kyiv.

This is Anchorage, Alaska. Hundreds rallied on the eve of the Trump–Putin meeting — most of them Americans, some flying in from other states. Streets awash with flags and signs, car horns blaring in support. Similar rallies lit up Fairbanks, Juneau, and more. Video: Ostap Yarosh

Something I think about often is the “casualization” of law enforcement, from ICE to what’s going on in DC, where everyone basically wears whatever the fuck they want and slaps a “police” or similar patch on their non standard chest rack and calls it a day. WTF happened to uniforms and badges???

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” It costs a lot less to house people.

An "economist" so dumb I had to explain to him how the import price index works last month will now lead the BLS, kill me
a tweet from EJ Antoni that reads "Import prices just came in WAAAY below expectations: June was up just 0.1% M/M, -0.2% Y/Y, while May saw a huge downward revision from flat to -0.4% M/M; still waiting for tariffs to be passed on by foreign producers..."

I replied "The import price index measure pre-tariff prices, the fact that pre-tariff prices are basically flat means Americans are paying the tariffs. Though I wouldn’t expect a Heritage foundation guy like yourself to be smart enough to understand basic stuff like that."

People have trouble interpreting this. Nobody’s saying Donald Trump or Pam Bondi are personally selecting Nazi iconography. They don’t read enough for that. The point is they hire and promote Nazis who ARE steeped in Nazi iconography, and they’re fine with it.
