Dress it up in progressive language but you're cheating yourself by not doing the work. This is the worst thing about AI: millions of students refusing to learn, taking zero interest in the world around them, empty in mind and heart. Your punishment is the person you will become.

"All lives matter" except young LGBTQ+ lives. May all the hypocrites STFU about caring about anyone.

And young troubled friends, please contact www.thetrevorproject.org and other organizations that genuinely care.

Republican Sen. Joni Ernst defends proposed Medicaid cuts: 'We all are going to die' Her comment came in response to an attendee who yelled that proposed GOP cuts to Medicaid would cost lives.

Medicaid cuts don't matter because "we are all going to die" does not seem like a winning political message

Trump told West Point cadets at their graduation that he wouldn't be able to shake their hands, a tradition among US presidents, because he had urgent matters to deal with on China and Russia.

This was him "dealing" with China and Russia moments later. He went golfing.

RESULT: Omaha's Republican Mayor Jean Stothert just lost to her Democratic challenger John Ewing.

Stothert, who was running for a fourth term, resorted to anti-trans ads and messaging around who uses bathrooms in the final stretch of the campaign.

Ewing will be Omaha's first Black mayor.

A 12-year-old boy was left alone on a street corner after β€œICE” agents arrested the adult he was with in Waltham, MA.

They just drove away and left him. A child. On the sidewalk. Like trash.

THIS is the face of our immigration system. Cruel. Inhumane. Indefensible.
