I’m sorry I don’t care if Nancy Mace is a survivor. She supported and advocated for a convicted sex offender to be president. IT IS HYPOCRITICAL of her to ask Hillary Clinton to defend bill Clinton. Ask bill Clinton to defend his fucking actions.

As the laid off Middle East News Editor, I concur. Management eliminated the positions of every single staff correspondent and bureau chief in the Middle East.

Liberals, I promise you that no one has forgot about the Epstein files. Some people just have the ability to think about multiple things at one time.

US bombing children and other civilians for Israel is also very important.

It's Official: the Cybertruck is More Explosive than the Ford Pinto - FuelArc News We now have a full year of data for the Cybertruck, and a strange preponderance of headlines about Cybertrucks exploding into flames, including several fatalities. That’s more than enough data to comp...

The Ford Pinto had a death rate of 85 people for 10 million cars sold. The Cybertruck hasn't sold 10 million, but the fatality rate so far maths out to 1,452 people killed per 10 million sold.

The Cybertruck may be the deadliest road car, for the occupants, ever sold.

Moms for Liberty ceremony

Moms For Liberty named RJ May the South Carolina Legislator of the Year for 2023 for his efforts to protect children from the evils of the LGBTQ community.

He was just sentenced to 17.5 years in federal prison followed by 30 years of supervised probation for distributing child pornography.

Halifax has a $101 million police budget. None of it is measurably associated with crime reduction, according to decades of research.

A 10% reduction to manage a fiscal crisis whereby public employees are threatened with removal of living wage is surely justifiable, someone just needs to say it.

Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here.

Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.

The Filipino-American legacy of fighting for freedom is taking on Trump Caregivers are applying lessons from resisting authoritarianism under Philippine dictator Marcos Sr. in the 1980s.

Nurses, labor organizers and survivors of a brutal dictatorship are banding together to apply lessons learned from anti-authoritarian organizing in the Philippines to the present-day United States. https://bit.ly/45YeQyS

Note that this is local police not ICE or CPD attacking these young people. Local police are working overtime to distance themselves from ICE/CPD. Don't buy the hype.

Many of my science colleagues are not speaking out-I suspect due to the fear Phil notes, that they'll targeted for loss of funding. I hope they read this account of what happened at a faculty meeting at Frankfurt University in 1933 as the Nazi's took control πŸ§ͺ

a woman reached out to donate 500,000 delta skymiles to get people home to MN as they are released from custody in TX.

we're getting flights booked today. it should be enough to get at least 15 people home.

delta should be doing for free since they take ICE money.

Among the batch of newly released emails from Jeffrey Epstein: Epstein telling Peter Thiel he would β€œgladly share…expenses for the Gawker suit.”

This was sent the day after @rmac.bsky.social and @mattdrange.bsky.social reported in Forbes that Thiel was behind the lawsuit that would bankrupt Gawker

Trump’s Profiteering Hits $4 Billion In August, I reported that the President and his family had made $3.4 billion by leveraging his position. After his first year back in office, the number has ballooned.

President Trump has made $4 billion by illegally trading access to the White House to get rich. He controls the Dept of Justice and the Congress so he won't be held accountable - until he doesn't control the Dept of Justice and Congress.

Which better explains this situation?
A Drug Enforcement Administration agent is arresting a journalist.

Bondi Links Minneapolis Violence to Voter Data The attorney general laid bare the administration’s plan to interfere with the midterms.

Federal agents killed innocent civilians. The response of the U.S. attorney general is to use it as leverage to illegally access voter data.
