Dubai influencers share near-identical videos with footage of Dubai crown prince | LBC Videos featuring the caption ‘I know who protects us’ have been circulating on social media

I had no idea until this all started that the UAE licences and pays many influencers to live there and write positively about the regime.

That puts a whole new spin on things.

Propagandists in pocket of regime.

It's why all the messaging is the same.

Corporate Media Buries Story of US and Israel Killing 168 in Girls School Attack No front-page stories in NYT, WSJ, WaPo. No mention on NBC and CBS Sunday Shows. No stand alone segments on Evening News shows. A death count on par with the OKC bombing is relegated to the back page.

Mind is going back to that quote about how most people experienced the fall of the Roman Empire as the bridge falling down and no one coming to fix it.

"I asked God to forgive me, which he has."

Honestly this is the biggest perk of serving in Congress. Most people have to ask forgiveness and wonder. If you're in Congress you get a same day answer from the big guy.

Oh you're an independent minded rebel who doesn't play by the rules? Fuck you. You've ruined society. Society was right to reject you. No more lose canons. No more outsiders. I want by the book squares running everything and to have more power.

The Diameter Of The Bomb The diameter of the bomb was thirty centimeters and the diameter of its effective range about seven meters, with four dead and eleven wounded. And around these, in a larger circle of pain and time, two hospitals are scattered and one graveyard. But the young woman who was buried in the city she came from, at a distance of more than a hundred kilometers, enlarges the circle considerably, and the solitary man mourning her death at the distant shores of a country far across the sea includes the entire world in the circle. And I won’t even mention the crying of orphans that reaches up to the throne of God and beyond, making a circle with no end and no God.

It’s amazing that we’ve all just had to accept that our top military leaders in time of was will only take questions from wildly partisan media outlets. LindellTV, Daily Caller, Daily Wire get called on, but no legitimate general audience or defense press outlets.

Yeah sure, it's "gaming", "predictions", anything that does not attract regulation

Got it. I'm sorry for your loss. To clarify: You want a eulogy for your father that's 𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲, sounds 𝘀𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘁, and captures the 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗵𝗶𝗺. I get it. He wasn't just your father — he was your Dad. Here a few options I came up with:

Hey, remember how we let a nazi near-trillionaire annihilate the US state capacity? I know it was a whole year ago, but it turns out that this has consequences beyond "murdering 14 million people by ending USAID" (which apparently no one cared about).

This wasn’t a take on being in a war zone that I was expecting and yet…

oh, imagine if Apple made a car

guessing we’re tapping the strategic petroleum reserve again even though it’s down ~50% from pre-Russian invasion levels and oil is $70 a barrel. guys it’s supposed to be for emergencies not whenever you get scared your foreign policy is unpopular

At the end of @theguardian.com articles there's a banner explaining how they don't have an owner so they cannot possibly be bought by oligarchs. They forget to mention that a big 'partnership' with OpenAI motivates advertorial articles like this. They HAVE been bought.

100% correct

An aerial photo shows three diggers excavating the ground for graves. More than 65 graves are already dug. Those not yet dug are marked out by chalk.

Not a single US newspaper will publish this photo. No news channel will broadcast it.

The graves are being prepared for more than 80 young children killed in the US/Israeli strike on the school in Minab, Iran on Saturday.

"No stupid rules of engagement" is how you shoot down three of your own F-15s in one day. Just a shocking display of martial ineptitude.

My neighbour told me Kuwaiti air defence keeps eating his F-15s so I asked how many F-15s he had and he told me he just goes and gets another F-15 so I said it sounds like he's just feeding F-15s to Kuwaiti air defence and then his daughter started crying
