This is a choice we make as a society. What does that say about you and me?

Update: Bari Weiss’s first pitch at CBS — a roundtable with Antony Blinken, Mike Pompeo, and Hillary Clinton that ended up being a virtual interview with Clinton & Condoleezza Rice — has about 150 viewers on YouTube.

If you’re an Islamophobe you don’t get to complain about antisemitism

And if you’re an antisemite you don’t get to complain about Islamophobia.

When you drag a woman by the hair, beat her and force her to kiss your flag, that’s how you tell the world you are the Good Guys

Free Greta Thunberg and the rest of the illegally detained flotilla activists.

an extremely unimpressed-looking audience of military brass in uniform, medaled to the nines and making faces that are 31 flavors of what the fuck

As a public speaker, if you look out and see an audience looking like this, you have lost that audience. Hard.

Incredible hashtag journo poasting about how tough the conditions are for a reporter ....... when riding on the PMs RAAF plane.

Donald Trump waxes poetic about his redecoration of the Oval Office. Actually the ornaments are made by a company in Taiwan of polyurethane and have been spray painted gold. He's deluding himself about this, just like everything else.

Neither host pulls him up. In fact, one has an empathetic follow up question that seems to legitimise it? “Oh Brian, how did we get here?” Makes it sound like a done deal.

MEANWHILE journos are getting fired for simply stating that Charlie Kirk wasn’t all that, evidenced by his own words.

what a humiliating way for don jr. to find out his dad sends birthday cards.

Graham Linehan ‘relentlessly’ posted abuse about trans teenager, court told Prosecution tells hearing Father Ted writer’s posts about Sophia Brooks, 18, were ‘oppressive and unacceptable’
