Didn’t have this one on my 2025 calendar. The richest country in the world is now asking its citizens for donations on to help pay off its debt. Or billionaires could just pay taxes like everybody else.
BREAKING: US government now offering citizens option to donate via Venmo and PayPal to help reduce $36.7 trillion debt.

A friend recently visited China for the first time and said, "it was like seeing an advanced civilization 30 years ahead of the U.S. I was totally shook." Note that he's a white American conservative bro. @Molson_Hart

‼️ Iranian Attrition of American Air Defense Capabilities in the 12-Day War ‼️ This is a very sobering report from Stars and Stripes. It states that US/Israeli air defenses shot down 201 of 574 Iranian ballistic missiles launched at Israel. That is a shocking 35% interception…
This is Israel's Holodomor.
“Israel's forced starvation of Gaza and the weaponization of aid has, after months of warning, reduced Gaza to a state of famine. In addition to the daily stream of war crimes broadcast on social media by IDF soldiers since the war's start, the world has become witness to a new…
An old Soviet joke. The Russians arrest a Jew for studying Hebrew. “Why are you studying Hebrew in Russia? You will die before being allowed to go to Israel.” “When I die, I will go to heaven and everyone there will speak Hebrew.” “Ha! And what if you go to hell?” “I already…
He's got a point.
. If Hong Kong's prosperity was due to 156 years of British rule, why is India still a shithole after 190 years of British rule? .
Wow, I never thought he would do it: Macron announces France will recognize the state of Palestine in September at the General Assembly of the UN. Credit when credit is due: an extremely rare good move by Macron. Way too late but better late than never.
Fidèle à son engagement historique pour une paix juste et durable au Proche-Orient, j’ai décidé que la France reconnaîtra l’État de Palestine. J’en ferai l’annonce solennelle à l’Assemblée générale des Nations unies, au mois de septembre prochain.…

Fox News Publishes Op-Ed Warning Tulsi Gabbard’s Obama Accusations Are a Dangerous ‘Effort to Rewrite History’ mediaite.com/media/news/fox…
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt getting schooled by a reporter in her bogus press conference with Tulsi Gabbard about their fake "scandal" about Obama (who has presidential immunity) is glorious. 🍿
I can’t tell you how detestable it seems to me that the US is going around just shaking everybody down like a 2-bit protection racketeer. I can’t tell you how much contempt I feel for those emptying their pockets on the double and pleading for the « protection ». For me, and I…
These Oliners set a bold goal: design + build a fully functional #electriccar in just 1 (school) year - a task that hasn't been done in 8-years. It was a massive challenge, full of ups + downs. In the end they accomplished something extraordinary. olin.edu/articles/oem-p… 🏎️⚡️
