The Urban Institute sent out a donation plea today, claiming that the federal funding freeze impacts 1/3 of its budget. I knew all these lefty DC organizations got a lot of taxpayer money, but 1/3 is a lot! Sort of insane.

literally everyone on that crew was hoping she’d fall in
I joined our U.S. Coast Guard as they enforce the maritime safety zone north and south of the crash site. A USCG helicopter is on standby, and USCG Cutter SAILFISH is on scene. Thank you to our Coast Guard, interagency partners, and local responders.

“my words are so important that they cannot be abridged but so meaningless that they cannot be blamed”
This is a very, very, very, very dumb take. But there's a subset of mediocrities within media who think that whenever anything bad happens, it's the fault of liberal journalists who aren't sufficiently down with the cause. It's an idiotic worldview.

searching 'labor theory of value' real quick
America is not an Empire because we do not extract wealth from our client states. Instead we literally send them money. It’s like a reverse-empire
