“…that many of them don't know why they're all doing this, except for the fact that their boss told them to do it. And that is equally horrifying and infuriating. This is no way to run a declining empire!”

“I am just stunned at how little anyone we've spoken to lately – whether they be senior administration officials, Trump advisers, or anyone else close to the decision-making process – can give me a straight answer about what the mission would be here, beyond the Mad King Donald just doing his thing…

Americans are fundamentally opposed to government censorship. It's in our bones.

White House, Minnesota Supreme Court chief justice quietly negotiated deal over ICE enforcement in courts Four days later, chaos unfolded inside the Hennepin County Government Center.

This is disturbing. The Chief Justice of the MN Supreme Ct met with Homan, worked out an agreement, and never announced it publicly. ICE appeared to violate it days later by violently tackling a person in the Gov Center w/out a judicial warrant. We need transparency.

Anybody who thinks they can quietly cut a deal with this regime is either a rube or a collaborator. And we can’t tolerate either.

The only thing that has worked is full opposition, clear public demands, and calling them out on their bullshit.

When you put it like this, a $75 million bribe to Melania and gutting the Washington Post seems like a small price to pay.

Hackers Expose Age-Verification Software Powering Surveillance Web Three hacktivists tried to find a workaround to Discord’s age-verification software. Instead, they found its frontend exposed to the open internet.

Oops. Turns out Persona, Discord’s age-verification service, was secretly screening selfies against government watchlists AND accessible by the feds. It's backed by Peter Thiel.

Amid Trump crackdown on Chinese students, one US university appears to block them altogether Purdue says no ban on Chinese students exists, but reportedly rescinded dozens of offers after warnings from legislators

Perdue banning all Chinese students just for national origin. No other reason. The Harper's Letter crowd must be crafting a humdinger of a new letter over this one.

Jordan United Arab Emirates Indonesia Pakistan Bahrain Türkiye Saudi Arabia Syria Oman Palestine Qatar Kuwait Lebanon Egypt Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) - A 57-member intergovernmental body representing Muslim-majority countries. League of Arab States (LAS) - regional organization ot 22 Arab countries. Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC): Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, and Oman.

MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS AND EXPATRIATES Joint Statement Amman, 22 February 2026 - The Ministries of Foreign Affairs of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, the Republic of Indonesia, the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, the Kingdom of Bahrain, the Republic of Türkiye, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the Syrian Arab Republic, the Sultanate of Oman, the State of Palestine, the State of Qatar, the State of Kuwait, the Republic of Lebanon, the Arab Republic of Egypt together with the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), the League of Arab States (LAS), and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) express their strong condemnation and profound concern regarding the statements made by the United States Ambassador to Israel, in which he indicated that it would be acceptable for Israel to exercise control over territories belonging to Arab states, including the occupied West Bank. They affirm their countries' categorical rejection of such dangerous and inflammatory remarks, which constitute a flagrant violation of the principles of international law and the Charter of the United Nations, and pose a grave threat to the security and stability of the region.

The Ministries stressed that these statements directly contradict the vision put forward by U.S. President Donald J. Trump, as well as the Comprehensive Plan to End the Gaza Conflict, which are based on containing escalation and creating a political horizon for a comprehensive settlement that ensures the Palestinian people have their own independent state. They underscored that the plan is grounded in promoting tolerance and peaceful coexistence, and that remarks seeking to legitimize control over the lands of others undermine these objectives, fuel tensions, and constitute incitement rather than advancing peace. The Ministries reaffirmed that Israel has no sovereignty whatsoever over the Occupied Palestinian Territory or any other occupied Arab lands. They reiterated their firm rejection of any attempts to annex the West Bank or separate it from the Gaza Strip, their strong opposition to the expansion of settlement activities in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, and their categorical rejection of any threat to the sovereignty of Arab states. They further warned that the continuation of Israel's expansionist policies and unlawful measures will only inflame violence and conflict in the region and undermine the prospects for peace and called for an end to these incendiary statements. The Ministries underscored their countries' steadfast commitment to the inalienable right of the Palestinian people to self-determination and to the establishment of their independent state along the lines of 4 June 1967, and the end of the occupation of all Arab lands.

I'm sorry, but to me, it's careless that the media is on TV saying that the US government may owe up to 175 Billion in Tariff refunds. When has Trump ever made sure anyone has gotten paid after he was proven wrong? I'll wait.

Mainstream Media is LYING about Trump Surveilling YOUR Social Media Posts No, Biden did NOT do the same thing. Shameful reporting by The Hill.
