This whole story is insane. If passengers hadn’t intervened, this could have been really bad. Having to worry about rogue pilots as well as hijackers is… not great.

Mike Johnson says opposition to data centers is a Chinese conspiracy. Huh? Meanwhile, 61% of Americans oppose building a new data center in their own area.

When you think things can’t get any more ridiculous at the White House, Trump is now floating the idea of replacing the White House press briefing room with a swimming pool.

Access to birth control doesn’t matter if you can’t afford it. That’s why I joined my Senate colleagues on this bill to ensure over-the-counter birth control is covered by insurers and provided at no out-of-pocket cost.

Re: Fairford suspects. I’ve seen speculation that maybe they were simply stealing diesel. I guess that’s possible. That said, the setup certainly matched the MO of a coordinated VBIED assault. Also, maybe don’t steal fuel in trucks that could easily be bombs next to a base.

Trump officially rolled back fuel efficiency standards today. The new target for 2031 is about 34.5 miles per gallon, down from 50.4. That means more gas burned, more pollution, and more money out of drivers’ pockets. So much for making things affordable.

Nah, she hates Trump. I guess my favorite 3 Trump accomplishments: 1. More people are paying attention to signs of Dementia than ever before 2. Trump is making math great again - lots of robust debates about his lie about reducing drug prices by 600% 3. He single-handedly revived fact checking

One thing I’ve noticed in 6 years of Trump: when he tries to cheat, he bumblefucks it spectacularly. Martial law doesn’t provide a mechanism for cancelling elections. I think it would have the exact opposite effect - turnout is already going to be high, that would send it to the stratosphere.

POLITICO exposed Vice President JD Vance as the leaker behind one of the stories the White House later cited to justify banning the outlet from White House grounds. So either they planted these stories and then used them as an excuse to ban the outlets reporting them, or it’s MAGA targeting MAGA.
