Sure this looks bad when you put it like this, but some college kids in America waved signs that frightened me so it is complicated.

More on Trump’s nominee to lead the office investigating Jack Smith:

➑️ He said that the descendants of slaves should pay reparations to the descendants of slave owners

➑️ He urged Congress to make J6 a national holiday

➑️ He called for Trump’s birthday to be made a national holiday (β€œMAGA Day”)

We have to understand they are going to keep repeating this as part of a justification for why they didn't call out genocide and starvation sooner. Don't let them get away with it

It's a bizarre and frankly alienating feeling realizing that if you know the basic fact that the murder rate has gone down significantly since 1990 you're in the ~90th+ percentile of fact-knowers

Let's not forget that this seat was vacant because Islamaphobic Democrats wouldn't let Biden's appointee be confirmed. And Schumer let the clock run out.

Cheap Tricks for Hard Problems Picking up nickels in front of the climate steamroller.

I find it hypnotic to watch America walking straight down a path towards a climate change/ insurance/ financial/ political crisis that is entirely predictable.

My policy proposal: It shouldn't be illegal to be a billionaire, as long as it's also not a crime to kill a billionaire. If you think you can make $1B in a way that doesn't make anyone angry enough to want to kill you, good luck!

It is pretty noticeable that even as mainstream opinion on Israel and Gaza finally shifts, you don’t hear the Responsible Adults apologizing for punishing all the college kids protesting the atrocities. Quite the opposite in fact!

Lallemand said he borrowed his friend’s boat and was fishing near Venise-en-QuΓ©bec, which is roughly 15 kilometres north of the U.S. border at the northern tip of Lake Champlain. He says he has been fishing for decades and is adamant that he was in Canadian waters when the Coast Guard showed up and told him to turn off his engine, to which he complied.

The three officers told him he was in U.S. territory.

β€œI said, β€˜No, I’m very sorry, I’m in Canada.’ And I said I’m polite enough to talk to you guys but you cannot arrest me. β€˜You can’t come across the border and pick me up’ but they did,” he recalled.

Lallemand started his engine and said he wanted to talk with the officers by the shore, but the Coast Guard followed and tried to push him into the U.S., which is what caused him to go overboard.

β€œThey’re tying my boat to their boat. They’re not even taking care of me. The third time I went down, coming out with water in my mouth, spitting it out, I said throw me a buoy,” he said.

Once on their vessel, he said he was aggressively put in handcuffs. β€œI never saw somebody so angry,” he said.

He was then handed over to U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers, who fingerprinted him, put him in a jail cell with his clothes soaking wet, and gave him a β€œdirty” blanket.

A Quebec fisherman who was fishing 15 kilometers north of the US border was essentially kidnapped by US Border Patrol, who capsized his boat and dragged him to an American prison cell.

In any normal time this'd be quite the international incident, y'know?

Hulk Hogan truly was the real America: an icon you were dutifully instructed to adore as a child and then every single piece of information about what he was, what he did, and what he thought about things made you hate him more and more, and in a way, yourself for falling for it.

as correct as michael is here this is the inverse of how it works in the world of elite commentary, where a willingness to entertain race science somehow makes you more credible for your "heterodoxy" (see: charles murray)

Note the passive voice β€œwere killed.” Who did it and how, @npr.org ?

Israel and the USA are partners in one of the most heinous genocides of modern times and we’re still cop-tensing how starving people seeking food were murdered in cold blood.
