eschaton wednesday may 06 2026 morning wacky wednesday by atrios at 06 00 tuesday may 05 2026 happy hour get happy by atrios at 17 00 my clanker buddy how many hours per day do we think egghead andreessen spends talking to his computer god by atrios at 14 20 competing claims determining the truth or close to it is an exercise for you dear reader as so much journalism is today the united states and iran made competing claims over which side controlled the strait of hormuz on tuesday adding pressure to their shaky cease fire after the u s navy launched an effort to protect vessels through the vital oil shipping route the strait itself remains effectively closed only two ships were known to have passed through the waterway on monday and none had made the trip on tuesday defense secretary pete hegseth said the u s effort to free trapped vessels is ongoing adding we re ensuring that we have control of that strait which we do iran s state broadcaster dismissed the u s effort as a failure and said iranian control over the strait had intensified by atrios at 13 01 we will always be 2 weeks away from the end of the war i don t know when the supply chains snap us president donald trump indicates that if he decides to return to war against iran it would take 2 3 weeks to achieve his goals in the war we ve taken out much of what we d have to do probably another two weeks two weeks maybe three weeks he tells conservative radio host hugh hewitt we either make the right deal or we win very easily from the military standpoint says trump by atrios at 11 13 our tech overlords much can be said but i think this shows that he both wants to believe spicy chatbot is god and that he can control god by atrios at 10 30 that s the way a lot of the problems with political journalism are a bit subtle and hard to quantify so you can sound like a bit of a crank if you complain about them one example is whether the adjectives unpopular or scandal plagued are regularly adjacent to trump s name or not more generally whether he is talked about as if he is unpopular or whether the focus is on whether the people who love trump love trump which is often the case trump is historically unpopular more than that he was never historically popular though you would not have known that from the press coverage beat sweeteners from the beginning of his second term president donald trump appears to be more unpopular than he s ever been including after the january 6 2021 capitol riot in fact his 35 average approval rating in the cnn poll of polls means he s now flirting with george w bush territory bush is the only president since jimmy carter to spend a sustained period of time in the mid 30s or lower again it was hard to quantify but it took a long time for the press to talk about george bush as if he was unpopular by atrios at 09 00 morning nacho tuesday by atrios at 06 00 monday may 04 2026 happy hour get happy by atrios at 17 00 but i thought he was so competent a problem with insider stories about hegseth is that as with kash patel nothing would be surprising yah he s a stupid racist asshole who sucks since trump returned to office in january last year pete hegseth the rumbustious defense secretary who has made it his mission to remake a military ethos he denounced as woke has fired or forcibly retired 24 generals and senior commanders with no performance related reason given about 60 have been black or female an approach seemingly driven by the administration s proclaimed onslaught against dei diversity equity and inclusion hires ok this from the self proclaimed alpha male is funny though pentagon staff have been surprised to see him accompanied to official meetings by his wife jennifer a former fox news producer who frequently sits at the back during such encounters by atrios at 13 30 somewhere after midnight in my wildest fantasy rudy giuliani is in critical condition it will probably be illegal to say mean things about him when he dies so now is a good moment to remember that not only was he one of the most loathsome individuals in public life at the time but all of the details of that were fully known to every relevant american journalist then but after 9 11 they needed a hero so they created the character of rudy 9 11 something which required deliberately ignoring all of his 9 11 related unheroic deeds great job everybody by atrios at 11 30 oh no the capital allocation system allocated capital badly again you can hear the sound of chanting growing banks are hunting for new ways to offload risks tied to a glut of data centre debt as the race to build ai infrastructure stretches financing limits among the largest global lenders groups including jpmorgan chase morgan stanley and smbc are trying to find ways to distribute portions of data centre related deals to a broader range of investors according to people familiar with the matter bailout bailout bailout bailout just put wafer thin bits of shit in with the good stuff and no one will notice distributing the sizes we re talking about they re out of scale to anything we ve thought about ever said matthew moniot co head of credit risk sharing at man group banks very quickly start choking lenders including jpmorgan and mufg have spent more than six months distributing 38bn of construction debt tied to a data centre project leased to oracle in texas and wisconsin people familiar with the matter said lenders including jpmorgan and mufg have spent more than six months distributing 38bn of construction debt tied to a data centre project leased to oracle in texas and wisconsin people familiar with the matter said by atrios at 10 30 the first casualty of war no idea who is telling the truth but we already know hegseth s pentagon is less trustworthy than usual the u s military on monday rejected iranian claims to have struck an american warship as tehran signaled an aggressive response to president donald trump s new mission to guide stranded vessels through the strait of hormuz claim iranian state media claims that iran s islamic revolutionary guard corps hit a u s warship with two missiles truth no u s navy ships have been struck u s forces are supporting project freedom and enforcing the naval blockade on iranian ports pic twitter com vfxovxlu6g u s central command centcom may 4 2026 though the pentagon being not very concerned with telling the truth is not a hegseth invention by atrios at 09 00 morning boo local sports team by atrios at 06 00 sunday may 03 2026 sunday happy hour get happy by atrios at 17 00 america s worst democratic governor josh shapiro pennsylvania gov josh shapiro secretly helped a republican state treasurer s 2024 reelection bid after the official s democratic opponent had criticized shapiro as a potential vp pick a close shapiro ally said last week by atrios at 14 44 at least the war is over iran s 14 point proposal reads like what conquering nation demands not a surrendering one the new proposal calls for guarantees against future attacks a withdrawal of us forces from around iran the release of frozen iranian assets worth billions of dollars and the lifting of sanctions war reparations ending all hostilities including in lebanon and a new mechanism for the strait of hormuz iran which was also attacked by the us and israel last june wants a guarantee against future aggression israel has previously targeted iranian nuclear scientists and run campaigns to sabotage its nuclear sites tehran also wants its right to uranium enrichment guaranteed as a signatory to the non proliferation of nuclear weapons npt but trump has made the nuclear issue a red line iran wants decades of sanctions which have devastated its economy to be lifted as part of any deal the navigation through the strait and demands for war reparations are other sticking points in the talks by atrios at 12 50 mommy he punched me back trump just says a bit more crassly what is standard dc foreign policy thinking civilian populations need to be slaughtered in order to redeem a county for not bending to our will peace proposal us president donald trump said he can t imagine a new peace plan from iran he will review would be acceptable adding they have not yet paid a big enough price for what they have done iran s revolutionary guard corps irgc said the room for us decision making has narrowed by atrios at 09 30 morning sunday funday by atrios at 06 00 saturday may 02 2026 saturday happy hour get happy by atrios at 17 00 older posts home subscribe to posts atom use arial
