Trump: “When I can, I tell the truth.”
That’s a lie.

Five evacuees from Bahrain share their stories of "chaotic" evacuations following Iran's retaliatory strikes after American airstrikes were launched on Feb 28. They tell me their savings have been drained, their kids are traumatized and they're angry: ms.now/news/military-familie…

Drop what you’re doing. Go to today’s New York Times Opinion section. Sit down in a quiet corner. Start reading: “I Teach at a Business School: It’s Time to Shut Them Down,”by Chris Marquis, Univ. of Cambridge, former HBS professor.
BRILLIANT.
IRREFUTABLE.
LOOOONG OVERDUE.

The cycle "pulls money, attention and legitimacy away from the disciplines best equipped to question this logic: history, philosophy, sociology, political theory."
"I Teach at a Business School. It’s Time to Shut Them Down."

Hmm...Here’s a better idea.
If Bernie’s 5% billionaire wealth tax passed:
-Musk would owe $46 billion in taxes
-Every working family of 4 would get $12,000
-Childcare would be universal for every kid
And Musk would be worth $874 billion - more than he had on September 2, 2026.

Starlink has absolutely no role in the one military campaign Trump claims he wants Ukraine to end: hitting Russian oil refineries. It only works in Ukraine and it helps with air defense — homegrown air defense, to be specific, which was born of necessity because we aren’t providing enough missile interceptors. A Russian Shahed today killed a one-year baby in a park. The U.S. is actively making it easier for Russia to commit these atrocities by throttling satellite internet. All while Trump makes excuses for Putin.
🇺🇦 Zelenskyy delivers a blunt message to the United States:
“Just give us Starlink back. If you refuse, Ukraine will survive. We will continue defending ourselves with or without it.
But why would you restrict a country fighting for its survival? Why make it harder for us to defend our people?
I simply cannot understand the reasoning behind this decision. It is a mistake.”
Ukraine isn’t asking America to fight its war. It’s asking America not to stand in the way of its defense.

“This goes against everything CISA represents,” a former official said.
