I hate to remind you all. But for the far left, supporting Ukraine was always about Hunter-Biden and getting Trump. It wasn’t policy. The far left has never been supportive of America’s allies as a means of protect US interests.

Hey, fellas at @RuthlessPodcast, you probably have to ban Bill Kristol from King of the Hill next week because this could result in one round knockout.
@ComfortablySmug @HolmesJosh @JohnAshbrook @MichaelDuncan
As far as I know, this is the first time @BillKristol has explicitly said he would vote for Mamdani.
Somewhat surprising, though I guess it really shouldn’t be

Nobody is selling any national parks. That's only 12.5 percent of federally owned land, and is not for sale.
The problem is that many Western states are de facto controlled by the federal government:
Of course the federal government should sell a bunch of land.
Mike Lee's legislation to sell off less than 1% of the government's 640 million acres should pass with unanimous conservative support.

If you're sweating the coming potentially dangerous heat wave, remember:
1. This happened 100 years ago June 2-6, 1925; and

Good Vibrations is a symphony.
This clip of Brian Wilson and The Wrecking Crew recording the track is outer worldly.
Proof that all he needed were just musicians to play his material.
He is The Beach Boys.

The US is one of the top per-pupil spenders in the world. Tell me John, how much more money till you admit it’s not the money?
Most of our problems could be solved by properly funding public education.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
"Federal, state, and local governments provide $878.2 billion or $17,700 per pupil to fund K-12 public education"
This figure has increased every year, while public school effectiveness and scores have decreased every year.

Hey,@Support. The great tweeter @neontaster, Noam Blum, tells me he’s been hacked and can’t get through to anyone to salvage his account. What can he do? (Please retweet to get X to pay attention. Thank you.)
