Hi new friends. see this thread for how this account works, how it's somewhat different from @GraphCrimes and how it's somewhat different from bad take twitter

Everyone has got to start making every chart like this because Americans are too stupid to remember who was president in 2016, 2020, or 2024

The fair and reasonable consequences of asking the father of your child to not let his chatbot make CSAM of you.

Anyone who pays attention to Syria ought to be noting all the people baying for the blood of civilians tonight.

ICE agents aren't Disney villains. They're our neighbors, friends, and loved ones. These immigration and customs enforcement officers are red-blooded American patriots doing a tough job to keep our nation safe. Assaults against ICE are up 1,300%. I stand with @DHSgov.

Rep. Wesley Hunt: "The bottom line is this: when a federal officer gives you instructions, you abide by them and then you get to keep you life"

Greenland - As viewed from a proper map Why Greenland? Well because Moscow bases almost all of their strategic military assets on the Kola Peninsula next to Finland. This is where the Russian ICBM silos, submarine bases, and their strategic bombers are. If you look at the flight path (ballistic or powered) from Kola to anywhere on the lower 48, then everything goes over Greenland. Greenland is the theatre where any strategic exchange between Washington and Moscow is contested. If you want to intercept a ballistic missile, the best point to do so is at the apogee, at the top of the flight path. The shortest route for an interceptor to get to an apogee is from directly below the apogee. That’s where Greenland is. So, without stating what should happen here, this is **why** the Trump administration says they **need** Greenland for national security. The other thing that is happening is that the Northern Passage through the Arctic is opening up, and soon there will be Chinese cargo ships sailing through the Arctic to Rotterdam. It’s faster than the Suez and the ships aren’t limited to Suezmax size so China and EU trade is going to accelerate a lot. This means Chinese submarines will also be venturing under the Arctic into the Northern Atlantic, IF THEY AREN’T ALREADY DOING SO. Hence, the North East coast of Greenland serves not 1 but 2 critical strategic security objectives of US national security. If this wasn’t clear to you, please understand that the Mercator global map projection is for children and journalists only. It is not a useful guide to where any countries or territories actually are in the real world that we live in. No self respecting adult should be using Mercator for their worldview. Anyone saying “there must be some other secret reason for Trump being interested in Greenland” is a certified ignoramus.

Calling the problems Walz faced the product of a “conservative media campaign” reminds me of what my colleague Ruy Teixeira dubbed the Fox News fallacy: many Dems think that stories covered mostly or exclusively from the right aren’t a big deal or even true at all.

Breaking: Rubio said the US Navy will keep up a "quarantine" of some Venezuelan oil exports to coerce Maduro's allies to open up the oil industry. A White House official said that's what Trump meant when he said the US will "run" Venezuela. It's the new gunboat diplomacy.

Minnesota residents are now showing up to the daycare asking “where are the kids?” 😭 Love the movement Nick Shirley started!!!

After 2.5 years for permits, construction and inspections, I finally added a 249 square foot laundry room to my house. And what did I just get in the mail from the LA County Tax Assessor’s office? A notice that my property tax is going up because of it. Why? I’m not making any more use of schools, fire dept, water (which I have to pay for separately anyway), police or anything else. Just more tax 💸 to people who will blow our cash.
