On February 8, 2025, kayaker Adrián Simancas was briefly swallowed by a humpback #whale off #Chile’s coast. The whale surfaced unexpectedly, engulfing him and his kayak, then released him unharmed seconds later. The incident was captured on video by his father.

A Soviet man went to the same newspaper stand every morning, looked at front page & left. The owner finally said "Comrade, you're here every day w/o buying a paper. What are you looking for?" "An obituary" "But the obituaries are in the back" "The one I am looking for will be on the front page"

(2/2) if Trump loses the House, his ability to pass legislation for the rest of his presidency ends. Moreover, he'd expect to be repeatedly impeached over the next 18 months—putting him perpetually in Senate trial territory. How close are Americans to fighting this man off? Closer than you think.

Day 68 into the GOP takeover: Prices are going up. Consumer confidence is plummeting. Classified info is being leaked. Social Security is being dismantled. Residents are being arrested for their political views.

Deflecting to “but the mission was a success” reminds me of a drunk driver arguing to the cop that he should be allowed to go home because he didn’t crash into anyone.

In 1862, a Union soldier found cigars wrapped in a piece of paper in a field of clover. The paper was a copy of Confederate Gen. Lee's invasion orders. The Southern sloppiness helped the Union stop Lee at Antietam. It's unknown who lost the orders in the field, or if he was related to Pete Hegseth.

That an alcoholic weekend talk show host cosplaying the SecDef colossally screwed up, isn’t all that stunning. What’s stunning is how republicans will ignore this dangerous breach of security because they’re too afraid to tell Donald Trump he was wrong about Pete Hegseth.

It’s vital for us to take the Trump regime’s arrest of Mahmoud Khalil seriously. He had a valid green card. Was charged with no crime. Was accused of being “aligned” with Hamas, whatever that means. Trump is a fascist. His henchmen will crush free speech in this country if we let them.

Anyone want to bet that no one looks at the email responses that Musk asked for ? It requires too much manpower and organization. Even w/AI He will hold them in the event he has an interaction with someone. If so, he can look up their response or lack of, and use it as cause for action.

Musk claims he discovered that millions of dead people have been paid trillions of dollars in social security money, but Mike Johnson had the House take the week off instead of investigating this extremely serious allegation. If this is true, why are House Rs taking a week off?
