It is so damning of US news media that so many outlets refuse to just straight up say that Senator Tim Sheehy assaulted an activist.

He did not "help" Capitol police. They did not need his help. He wanted to assault the guy and did. He should resign.

echoing the ever-so-brilliant John Bolton on the News Hour discussing lack of post-conflict planning, ‘why bother writing a 500 page plan because we don’t know exactly what will happen.”

For all the but how can we afford space exploration folks…this means we’ve already spent more on this war that started last week than Cassini cost in the 26 years it took to build, launch, and operate it.

Having suffered the pain of a tooth infection I can unequivocally say that this man died in absolute agony. The type of nerve pain that will have you screaming and wondering quite rightly if you’ve gone insane

This man was tortured through neglect, and everyone involved is an irredeemable monster

Horrifying. Jesus Lord in heaven.

China’s 450km/h bullet train is the fastest ever built Dart between Beijing and Shanghai in under four hours, with airline-like business class comfort.

China is testing a train that will go 280mph, making it the fastest conventional train in the world.
