President Donald Trump's war against Iran is stretching the limits of U.S. aircraft carriers and leaving the western Pacific without one of the key American warships as China shows more signs of aggression. The USS George Washington is departing the Pacific and expected to replace the USS Abraham Lincoln in the Middle East amid growing concerns about mental health and supply issues aboard the long-deployed carrier.
Poll results released from mega-oligarchs Larry and David Ellison-owned CBS: "Democrats are mostly positive on socialism and have a more favorable impression of it than of capitalism. Socialism finds more positive views among Democrats with college degrees than those without. They're even more likely to perceive a gap between the richest and the middle class."

"Many secrets; no mysteries." That's the master code of the Trump administration. When it does something strange, there's never any mystery as to why: Somebody close to the president, or possibly the president and his family themselves, intends to score a dishonest dollar. Exactly who and how may be secret. Exactly why is no mystery. Read more

A series of shootings in Michigan left five people plus a suspect dead Friday, police said, following an extensive search around two homes and a wooded area. Officers responded just before noon to reports of a shooting at a home in Missaukee County, about 170 miles northwest of Detroit, and found three people dead and another in critical condition, Michigan State Police said in a statement.

Is it a sitcom? Is it a Miami manosphere convention? No, it's Andrew Tate and Tristan Tate fanboys fighting for their freedom. A few blocks from the federal detention centre where the brothers are currently being held following their 18 July arrests, "Top G" loyalists gathered in Downtown Miami to demand their release, in a rather unique way. Footage soon surfaced online of a bunch of grown men (in 34-degree heat, mind you) dropping to the ground and doing push-ups as a form of protest. Ah yes, very Alpha. And if push-ups with questionable form weren't enough, they also came equipped with handwritten signs reading, "Thank you Andrew Tate for teaching us BRAVERY!" and "Tates are heroes"
Jared Kushner is taking heat for his latest social media post. On Thursday, Kushner marked six years since the Abraham Accords with a post on X crediting his father-in-law, President Donald Trump with opening what he described as a new era in the Middle East. The post drew critical responses from several commenters, including former President Barack Obama official Tommy Vietor, who sarcastically commented on Middle East peace since the accords.

Federal prosecutors in Chicago have been investigating Authentic Campaigns Inc., a Democratic fundraising firm once co-owned by Lauren Merchan, the daughter of NYS Judge Juan Merchan who in 2024 oversaw Dummkopf Trumpf's New York hush-money trial.
After conviction, Judge Juan Merchan sentenced Dummkopf Trumpf to "unconditional discharge" on 10 Jan 2025. The money laundering tax evading draft dodger called his trial "a very terrible experience," an "injustice," and a "political witch-hunt." Now we have Trumpf 2.0.

Looking younger and actually making aging skin biologically younger may not be the same thing. Fillers, lasers, microneedling, and other popular aesthetic treatments can visibly improve the skin. But a new review suggests there is surprisingly little evidence that these changes amount to biological "rejuvenation" or "regeneration".
A preprint paper published this week highlights the dangers of harassment involving Meta's camera-equipped smart glasses. Of the 350 covert recording videos studied by researchers at the University of Sydney, just under 60% of them included harassing behaviour, and 43% resulted in reams of insulting and derogatory comments directed at unwitting female subjects.
The American taxpayer-funded Israeli Death Forces (IDF) -- unstoppable serial killers of the Middle East -- liquidated eleven people with airstrikes, including children, while wounding several others in southern Lebanon, bringing the 2026 casualty count to at least 4,057 killed; 12,121 wounded; and over one million innocent Lebanese people internally displaced in what the UN has been reporting is a "man-made catastrophe."

Palestinians in the occupied West Bank village of Qusra have huddled inside their homes for days on end, unable to leave because of the threat posed by Israeli settlers. The Israeli military, which over the past three years has displayed staggering military and intelligence capabilities from Beirut to Tehran, has yet to fully remove the settlers from the area of the village, about an hour's drive from Tel Aviv.
NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani is not on the same page with the NYPD when it comes to a security detail for his wife during her upcoming Middle East trip ... because it's NOT happening.
NYC's pied-a-terre tax on wealthy property owners like Dummkopf Trumpf and other plutocrats can continue its planned rollout while it faces a legal challenge from greedy Republicans and detestable Islamophobes like Scott LoBaido who recently suffered a hate-inspired myocardial infarction while stalking NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D).
The Honorable NYS Justice Phillip Hom signed the order
