Vance: ‘Kind of ironic’ GOP critics of Iran deal don’t want war ‘stopped’

JD is “smart” in the same way as an LLM—he can make any position sound reasonable at a surface level but has no actual principles, internal consistency, or capacity for self-reflection.

Now every time a white dude gets promoted, everyone is going to question whether it was on account of merit or to meet some kind of quota. Sad! www.nytimes.com/2026/06/01/u...

The podcast bros said they were supporting Trump for two reasons: He wouldn’t start any wars, and he’d release the Epstein files. Massie lost tonight for two reasons: (a) forcing the release of the Epstein files, and (b) trying to restrain Trump’s war in Iran.

It’s getting to the point where you’d have to question the objectivity of any juror who doesn’t hate him, because hating him is the objectively reasonable position.

Another one of those what-if-it-happened-in-another-country moments: The president is suing the government for $100 million dollars for searching his home for the classified documents he stole, and the attorney who represented him on those charges is currently leading the Justice Department.

The Department of State tweets a video of Secretary Marco Rubio. In the video, Rubio says: "Imagine if instead of spending billions of dollars supporting terrorists or weapons, Iran had spent that money helping the people of Iran. They would have a much different country."FactPost News tweets a video of Donald Trump speaking at a podium. In the video he says: "We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country. We're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things."

Trump's always a word salad of lies and nonsense but it's worth noting his specific claim here: his own CBP, which screens international arrivals at airports, has been allowing undocumented people to pass through their checkpoints.

A lot of Americans have never experienced true adversity and took away the lesson that nothing truly bad can happen to them. Minimally functional government is one of those things you never notice until it’s gone.

Meritocracy is when you think appoint someone “weak on security” as counterterrorism chief because you “think he’s a good guy” and want to give him a chance.
