WHOA DHS does not say that the agent feared for his life… just the vague concern for “public safety.” So he killed him just because he did not want him in America, not because of any specific threat to agents?

Modern tech stocks have no intrinsic value and are fundamentally the same as Bitcoin, or any other ponzi-adjacent investment.

This, among other reasons, is why VA Dems can’t throw up their hands and wait til next year. Dems everywhere have tragically underweighted the importance of insisting on one set of rules for years. But now the GOP is enforcing double standards at gun point. Accept that passively, and it’s all over.

Oh, you’re saying that what he says in his hours and hours and hours of work product isn’t what he really believes, and you’re going to elicit the “real” tucker by asking him questions? ok

Every time I watch the Celtics, it seems obvious that White is their best player. Dude’s just always doing positive stuff.

The Operational Trap
Like Imperial Japan before us, the United States has substituted tactical and operational planning for strategic thinking.

A great timeline/summary in here, but maybe focused too much on what caused them to change. They were always like this. Their workers, who cared about the world, held them back. Their workers lost power, and now the founders act on who they always were. newrepublic.com/article/2088...

Hire a donor with no military experience to run the Navy. Demand he make a big dumb ship with questionable value. Find out it won’t be done in time to put your name on it. Fire donor. Just endless corruption and incompetence. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/23/u...

Tucker’s switch on Trump is part of his lifelong con. Changing his beliefs whenever needed to reach a new audience. But his sexism, racism, and anti-semitism do appear to be deeply held beliefs. And he might be genuinely sad Trump doesn’t fully share them. youtube.com/watch?v=HXQU...

It’s odd that Palantir chose this moment to argue that ‘the limits of soft power…have been exposed.’ The capacity of America to inflict its will upon the world through force has never appeared weaker. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/22/b...
