McGregor was found liable for sexual assault in 2024 and the jury ordered him to pay the victim $257,000. He lost all his appeals.

This is hilarious.

“They don’t speak our language.” Well, nobody worried about that when Puerto Rico’s 65th Infantry deployed to Korea in 1950. By war’s end, six men had been awarded DSC’s, 130 were awarded SS’s, and 3,800 were awarded PH’s. They remain one of the most heavily decorated NG units.

In Ukraine, where strikes and blackouts are common, many families have the ingredients to cook, but not the tools. That's why WCK's #ChefsForUkraine team has built our brand new Cooking Kits. Each includes a gas stove, canisters, and safety equipment so that families can cook the meals they love.

Best response to our study yet: The nativist equation is: Not hearing Spanish > infinite $$.

Wow. MAGA admits it is rooting AGAINST Team USA because athletes are using their first amendment rights!

Catherine O’Hara… she was great. I always liked her attitude. I hadn’t seen this in years and a fan shared it with me. May her memory be a blessing.

Bad Bunny wearing tinted dark red glasses with gold frames, hair gelled looking quite handsome! White shirt and tan tie.

His stage name is BAD BUNNY... a bad-ass artist and honey-of-a-Bunny. His given name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio. He is a handsome 31-year-old American citizen. Make no mistake. 1917: The Jones Act grants U.S. citizenship to all Puerto Ricans. I'll be watching... I'm a huge fan!

Six years ago, Donald Trump fired me from the White House for speaking the truth. I risked everything to protect our democracy.

If Lt. Col. Vindman had not been fired, he'd probably still be in uniform. Instead he's running for the Senate. How satisfying it will be when he votes to impeach Trump!

When unhoused Angelenos can stay united with their pets, they are more likely to come inside and stay housed.

Listen up: I have been busted. Geniuses of the Left post this exact statement as a gotcha every month, so I must confess: I wrote for @theatlantic.com, making me responsible for every word the magazine ever published. I'm also a mammal & thus responsible for the Late Pleistocene Extinctions. Sorry.

Trump saw enough of the racist video to post it, but not enough to apologize. That tells you everything.

A decent man who wasn’t racist would have owned it and said sorry.

Lutnick and Epstein were in business together, Epstein files show Though the commerce secretary has called his interactions with Epstein as "limited," the two were in business together four years after Epstein's 2008 guilty plea.

(CBS News) - U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has said he had "limited interactions" with Jeffrey Epstein, but documents show they were in business together as recently as 2014.

My photo shows two Roman gold-band mosaic glass bottles on display at the Met Museum. Made of mosaic patterned translucent cobalt blue, turquoise green, and opaque white glass, together with gold leaf encased in colourless glass. Both bottles have round bodies, flat bases, and cyclindrical necks with horizontal everted rims. The larger bottle on the left is 10.5 cm tall, the smaller bottle on the right is 4.8 cm tall. They are displayed on a clear glass shelf against a light beige background. According to the museum label: “Gold-band cast glass was a particularly opulent type of early Roman glassware. It combines canes of brightly colored translucent and opaque glass with strips of gold leaf encased between layers of colorless glass. Only a limited number of vessel shapes were made in this way, and some of the most common are small globular or carinated bottles such as these. They were presumably used to store expensive cosmetics and perfumes”.

Luxury Roman scent bottles made of gold-band mosaic glass. 1st century AD.

This opulent glass was made by encasing strips of gold leaf between layers of colourless glass.

Beautiful example of the skill of ancient glassmakers some 2,000 years ago!

Verge headline: How the men in the Epstein files defeated #MeToo by Elizabeth Lopatto Photo illustration depicts a shadowy Epstein flanked by Peter Thiel, Elon Musk and Donald Trump, distorted by pink noise

"It’s hard not to read these files and come to the conclusion that Epstein helped engineer the ultimate elite impunity — in which our society has been totally destroyed so the richest and most powerful men in the world can do whatever they want."

What if instead of counting on a redistricting plan to save him, Trump pursued policies the American people want.

Instead, he’s running the boldest experiment in modern politics: can you win elections by antagonizing everyone except the people who already bought the hat?

The crying from Republicans after they started the gerrymandering war is amazing. They’ve gotten so used to Democrats taking their outrageous attacks on the high road they can’t believe we are fighting back. Let’s be clear: we aren’t going high when they go low anymore. That ship sailed long ago.

I will never understand people who see this little girl who's only known America, screaming for a cat she'll never see, becoming ill, withdrawing, losing vision from accidentally(?) being hit in the face in DHS detention, and say "Good" that her life was destroyed

I don't *want* to understand them

3x Trump voter: “He takes bribes blatantly, now he’s being a racist blatantly.”

Aside from the message, which I support, his control of his instrument is impressive
