the ICE officer calling a woman he just murdered a “fucking bitch” is visceral, but imo the most material new information in the latest video is that she very clearly turns the wheel away from the officer right before it happens

Here’s a disturbing video from Evanston of a federal agent hitting a man on the ground as people yell that he can’t breathe.

There are two ways you can consume this: “Obama is a weakling who is tacitly endorsing Charlie Kirk because he’s not using the language and tone I would,” or “a professional communicator is making a point, I may not be the audience, and his primary aim may not be my personal emotional needs.”

US Citizen Detained by ICE During Raid on CA Farm Is Suing Trump Administration “They didn’t need an excuse for anything they did. They just did it,” George Retes says of ICE agents who arrested him.

George Retes, a 25-year-old U.S. citizen and Army veteran, was driving to work when he encountered an ICE checkpoint, where agents broke his car window, pepper-sprayed him and dragged him out of his vehicle for arrest. He was detained for three days and three nights without explanation.

She was hanging out with the 20 biggest NIMBY boomers in Evanston who are against zoning reform, talk about “preserving Evanston’s character”, and all kinds of other regressive BS. So yeah maybe she should’ve done some homework before showing up for a photo op.

favorite fact i learned recording this episode is that evangelicals didn’t really care about abortion and thought it was simply a catholic issue until the 70s when it became the biggest issue for evangelicals

Will Meet The Press ask random other white politicians to condemn Trump's antisemitic language this weekend? Or does that only apply to Mamdani?

When at the LA Times, I posted Fuck yeah lobster roll with a picture of a lobster roll, chips and beer. It was during the 3 days off I had to attend my mother's funeral across the country. When I returned, I was told to delete the post or else. For profanity. While on vacation. For my dead mom.

it’s absurd that NYT forced him to delete these skeets, which … convey the factual information that Zohran Mamdani is, in fact, a man of South Asian descent who was born and raised in Africa, and that the pseudonymous source of the hacked material is a white supremacist eugenicist.

A few years ago I worked for a men’s magazine and edited this writer who was a biohacker. He would take any gas station dick pill or inject anything into his dick or do anything to his balls for like $500. Anyway I just saw on IG that RFK Jr invited him to give a presentation at the White House

I am considering taking Three Billion Dollars of Grant Money away from a very antisemitic Harvard, and giving it to TRADE SCHOOLS all across our land. What a great investment that would be for the USA, and so badly needed!!!

FYI to media outlets, you're misleading your readers if you repeat this at face value.

There's no lawful way for him to redirect these grants elsewhere. It's a lie to distract from how the GOP budget guts educational funding, including Pell Grants at trade schools.
