I checked on it, and this is true. Kirk did graduate high school (Wheeling, Ill.) and then briefly attended Harper College (a public CC in Palatine, Ill.), but dropped out with no degree or cert of any kind. He never finished college and has never had any job outside of politics or right-wing media. He's pretty much never lived in the real world most people do in his adult life, and probably has no understanding of it.


Israel has deployed a coordinated media strategy to divert attention from the seizure of the Madleen aid flotilla en route to Gaza, manipulating public perception and concealing the aggressive nature of the operation, according to multiple reports.

Ynet reported that the Israeli foreign ministry controlled the media portrayal of the flotilla interception, with Western media largely echoing the ministry's narrative.

Henk van Gelder (1946-2025) was sinds 1981 recensent cabaret en musical voor NRC. Hij schreef achteloos diepgravend en vol kennis van zaken, vaak mild maar soms kortaf. Kwam een cabaretier hem dan kapittelen, dan antwoordde hij: ik schrijf niet voor jou, ik schrijf voor de lezer.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was quickly met with sharp questions and criticism Tuesday
by lawmakers who pressed him about his early moves to deploy troops to Los Angeles,
fire key military leaders
and purge diversity programs.
They expressed bipartisan frustration that Congress has not yet gotten a full defense budget from the Trump administration.
โ€œYour tenure as secretary has been marked by endless chaos,โ€
Rep. Rosa DeLauro, D-Conn., told Hegseth.
Others, including Republican leaders, warned that massive spending projects such as Donald Trumpโ€™s desire for a $175 billion Golden Dome missile defense system will get broad congressional scrutiny.
After persistent questioning about the cost of sending National Guard members and Marines to Los Angeles,
Hegseth turned to his acting comptroller, Bryn Woollacott MacDonnell, who said it would cost $134 million

Birds are amazing. But considering how much of my life I've spent watching and studying them, I've thought surprisingly little about just how incredible feathers are. Talking to engineers who still can't build anything to match a feather gave me a whole new understanding and appreciation for these absolute marvels of evolution.

The UK and four other Western governments have imposed sanctions on two far-right Israeli ministers.

The sanctions will include asset freezes and travel restrictions against national security minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and finance minister Bezalel Smotrich.

Australia, Canada, New Zealand and Norway are also imposing sanctions.

They say Israel needs to take immediate action against what they call, extremist settlers.

Yeah ๐Ÿฅณ Sanctions! On 2 far-right Israeli ministers! ๐Ÿฅณ

WHILE THEY KEEP ON TRADING AND SELLING WEAPONS TO ISRAEL FOR THE GENOCIDE AND BEING THE BIGGEST INVESTOR IN THE CONTINUED ISRAELI COLONISATION OF THE WESTBANK!

As we say in Dutch: they're trying to make people happy with a dead sparrow. Deeply, deeply disingenuous and disgusting.
