Javier Melei had a White House date with King Knucklehead.

All the little mice say so.

FIFA referees were twisted to breakage, but a truth emerged from Barca and Reino de España: real defenses are really hard to break.

My message for November’s political matches: defense.

State department announces “new visa restriction policy that targets members of Far-Left Terrorist and other aligned groups”. It was not immediately clear who would be subject to the new visa restrictions.

Rubio implied the US had largely won the effort against terrorism launched after the 2001 attacks…That threat was “severely diminished”, he said, and the administration was now moving on to this next problem – leftist violence…

"fuel deliveries to Western #Alaska quietly depended on a surprising player: #Russia.

…routes…often fall under the Int'l Maritime Org’s Polar Code, which…can include ice-class design, specialized equipment…crew training…ice-strengthened tankers are…scarce worldwide…

…fuel bound for Western or northern Alaska communities was often carried on Russian-built or Russian-operated vessels, sometimes under foreign flags, traveling from Asian refineries to the Alaskan coast. "

(who initiated her hiring to begin with, is the begged question)

“I’m not used to having to ask like this for a simple card or help with my rent especially being furloughed,” she texted Robert, according to the Mail. “Any past relationship would’ve jumped up and cared for me, which is what I like.”

RE: @rexi@mastodon.social

What could be more dystopic Trumpian than using your own failures as exigent excuse to bilk the taxpayers for a new East Wing after bulldozing the old one down illegally?

A substantial amount of medical information provided by five popular #AIchatbots is inaccurate and incomplete, with half (50%) of the responses problematic: 30% were somewhat, and 20% were highly problematic.

Continued deployment of these #chatbots without public education and oversight risks amplifying #misinformation, warn the #generativeAI researchers.

…New Year’s Eves together, a White House Easter…Fourth of July celebration…All meticulously documented on Instagram by #Zampolli, the man who introduced #Melania to the president and who was appointed special envoy for global partnerships by his friend…

“Now it’s war. We’ll see who wins. I kept quiet for years, and because of that, people judge me. They ask me, why are you speaking now? Because the man would not let me live in peace!”

Sure. I'll have my AI call your AI.

(F*, now I need an AI)

Q: can I home raise my own one?

What better way to celebrate the White House's dementia-stricken toddler-in-chief than to invite traumatic brain injury's star sport for an exhibition of their prepubescent thrilling idiocy?

Activists described hospitality mogul Tilman Fertitta’s arrival as an unwelcome display of American wealth and influence at a time when many Italians see the Trump administration upending the post-World War II international order.

Protesters clash with police, shouting ’Shame!”

They marched carrying inflatable water toys and beach balls behind a sign reading: “Venezia non si USA,” a play on words meaning “Venice is not to be used,” with the USA acronym capitalized.

“Branding dissent as domestic terrorism and directing federal agencies accordingly is one way democracies unravel,” said JoAnna Suriani, Counsel at Protect Democracy. “The IRS cannot be permitted to act as an instrument of political retribution behind a wall of secrecy. Our lawsuit demands the transparency that the law requires and the public is owed.”
