The Atlantic's Jeffrey Goldberg called the Trump White House's bluff, and published all the explosive details (paywall) about a private Signal group chat that, contrary to administration LIES, did indeed contain sensitive military strike plans.
They called him a liar. He posted the receipts.
Shit is flying.

BULL SHARK SWIMS 7,290 KILOMETRES IN RECORD MIGRATION
A recent study revealed that a female bull shark (Carcharhinus leucas) travelled at least 7,290 kilometres from the Mozambique Channel to Nigeria, crossing from the Indian Ocean into the Atlantic in what is now the longest recorded movement for this species. The finding was made possible by an acoustic transmitter implanted in South Africa in 2021 and recovered when the shark was captured near Lagos in July 2024. Bull sharks have long been considered coastal residents with relatively limited movements and a strong preference for warm, estuarine environments, making this ocean-crossing journey a remarkable exception that challenges previous assumptions about their ecology.
The shark’s route included passing through the Benguela upwelling, a major cold-water system along the coasts of South Africa and Namibia that has traditionally served as a biogeographic barrier for tropical species. Researchers suggest that climate change, by altering the temperature and dynamics of such systems, may be enabling new migratory pathways for widely distributed marine animals. In addition to expanding our understanding of bull shark ecological flexibility, this event highlights the value of large-scale acoustic tagging programmes and international collaboration in tracking the movements of highly mobile and potentially vulnerable species.

The shark was originally tagged on 2 April 2021 at the St Lucia Estuary mouth on the east coast of South Africa. Photo credit: Mr. Akeem Kolawol.

“Their long-form journalism has stayed on point for years, long after most publications abandoned anything longer than 1,000 words, so it’s a real shame. It’s Mother Jones for me from now on. That, or I try n+1. I’ve been hearing really good things about it from Hegseth.” At press time, a frustrated Trump was reportedly trying to get around The Atlantic’s paywall to read an article about Ali Smith’s new novel, Gliff.
