Justin Bieber is not letting outside noise faze him after receiving mixed reviews for his 2026 Coachella set. “This is Justin in 2026. He doesn’t have anyone pushing him to do these huge pop spectacles like a 3D concert movie anymore. It’s all about vibing and enjoying where he’s at now,” a source exclusively tells Us Weekly. “There’s a lot less pressure on him, which allows him to put on the show that he wants to.” Bieber’s highly-anticipated Coachella performance on Saturday, April 11, primarily featured tracks from his Swag and Swag II album, but he also showed YouTube clips…

I t was the first week of September in 2005, about a week after Hurricane Katrina leveled New Orleans, when George W. Bush uttered the line that would come to define his second term, if not his entire presidency: “Brownie, you’re doing a heck of a job.” It was a throwaway comment, a plainspoken president telling his aide, FEMA Director Michael Brown, that he appreciated the effort. But the effort wasn’t nearly adequate, the federal response pitiful, and Bush’s ad-lib became the slogan for an out-of-touch administration that either couldn’t run the government or, worse, didn’t care. For the rest…

[Today’s Iran war post launched before complete because stockpiling and trip prep. Please come back or refresh your browser at 8:00 AM EDT for a final version] The US/Iran talks failed, predictably but perhaps faster than expected. Recall that a pause misleadingly called a ceasefire was set for two week to allow for settlement of disagreements and an end to the conflict. The session ended with JD Vance claiming that the US had made its “final and best offer.” There was no indication from either the US or Iran side that further discussion was in the works. The two sides…

President Trump lashed out at Pope Leo XIV in a lengthy social media post Sunday night, calling the pontiff «WEAK on Crime, and terrible for Foreign Policy.»Leo has been critical of the war in Iran and has previously made statements at odds with other priorities of the Trump administration, such as the ongoing crackdown on illegal immigration.»I don’t want a Pope who thinks it’s OK for Iran to have a Nuclear Weapon. I don’t want a Pope who thinks it’s terrible that America attacked Venezuela, a Country that was sending massive amounts of Drugs into the United States and, even…

After the 2024 elections, there was a panic among Democrats about the absence of a liberal Joe Rogan. Could one be found? Could one be created? It was an epic exercise in missing the point. You cannot have a liberal Joe Rogan because Rogan is not particularly political. His audience cohered around conversations with comedians, M.M.A. fighters, bodybuilders and psychonauts. That’s what made him politically influential: He could reach millions of people who were not otherwise interested in politics.

Yup, that’s right. I pulled the trigger and have bought Crimson Desert, the highly anticipated, highly topical game that’s recently been released. Hyped as the “it can do anything” type of game, this is an action-adventure open-world game from South Korean developer Pearl Abyss, the devs behind the MMO Black Desert Online. There’s a lot to unpack here, so let’s dive into it. First, some housekeeping: I’m playing on a base PS5 in quality mode, targeting 30 frames per second. I have no problem with that; frames aren’t something that really bothers me. I prefer the more cinematic look of…

BUDAPEST, Hungary — Hungarian voters on Sunday ousted long-serving Prime Minister Viktor Orbán after 16 years in power, rejecting the authoritarian policies and global far-right movement that he embodied in favor of a pro-European challenger in a bombshell election result with global repercussions.It was a stunning blow for Orbán — a close ally of both U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin — who quickly conceded defeat after what he called a ″painful″ election result. U.S. Vice President JD Vance had made a visit to Hungary just days earlier, meant to help push Orbán over the finish line.Election…
