They did. This video is CBC. I was watching NBC and they filtered out crowd audio and played audio from family members of competitors' homes instead, was pretty clearly planned for this purpose.

lol in the US they switched to audio from the athletes' houses so you couldn't hear this

Such a great album. "The Happiest Place on Earth" is amazingly prescient (not to mention brave to put out) for a song that came out in early 2002!

Smiling DSA comrades with literature

"Cuba stood for the world. Now, the world must rise for Cuba.” Statement from the Cabinet of the Progressive International

"Stand with the Cuban people now; stand against this siege, this economic assault, this unfolding humanitarian disaster."

🇨🇺 Statement from the Cabinet of the Progressive International.

I mean, I guess I get where you're coming from but I'd be disinclined to like scan my ID to show I was viewing the documents.

DHS said that the woman CBP shot in the chest in Portland was “involved” in a gang shooting.

Her ~involvement~ was that suspected gang members sexually assaulted and robbed her.

Already happened under the Biden regime, just as Scott Adams predicted.

Shapiro is the poster boy for the straight line between advocates of bombing city blocks full of Palestinian children and those urging respect for federal agents murdering citizens and terrorizing immigrant families. Who deserves freedom from violence depends on who is doing the violence.

Video of his remarks where he says, verbatim, that one of his jobs as leader is to funnel more aid to Israel

75% of Democratic voters oppose sending Israel more military aid, as do 66% of independents and 60% of Americans overall according to recent polling

This is maybe the most bone-dry Chotiner interview I've seen in a while

Apps opening up again in a couple weeks!

I remembered this was made by the once-great MGM and got sad but then I burst out laughing realizing *this* film is gonna be preceded by "ars gratia artis"

If I saw this at a Goodwill I would pay like $30 for it lol

Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step.

1. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗼 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵, because I turned you into an amorphous lump of flesh. You’re not just immobile—you’re immortal, and you feel only anguish.

2. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺. That makes total sense—it’s a natural human impulse, and you’ve been through a lot.

It could be better, but is still one of the better player statements I've seen IMO, certainly better than the "Idk, I just hit ball" statements we've seen from so many

Given the heated rhetoric we've seen over the past few weeks I think it's important for all Americans to come together and agree that it's ok to be approximately 5'8"

these options suck. come build a better one dsausa.org/join

Really hard to look at this and all the other examples of bravery and kindness from ordinary people in this moment not think also of the tremendous cowardice exhibited over the past year by some of the richest, most well-protected people in business, media and politics

Imagine what’s happening in the camps.

Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

BREAKING: Federal agent shoots man in south Minneapolis A Bring Me The News reporter was near the scene, and recorded multiple gunshots.

“Federal agents briefly detained our reporter at the scene, who says he was tackled to the ground and had a gun put in his face.”

The video of the latest apparent ICE killing shows them repeatedly shooting someone after they had already been beaten and were being held down by multiple agents.

It’s -9 degrees. Downtown Minneapolis is packed for the anti-ICE rally and the crowd keeps growing

The policy had nothing to do with fighting antisemitism and everything to do with suppressing legitimate and constitutionally protected criticism of Israel.

great job to everyone who had a moral panic about kids seeing what was really happening in Gaza you got what you wanted
