I’ve seen the future of America: Blue urban areas: Non-white people being terrorized, arrested, put in concentration camps & disappeared Red rural areas: White people getting sick & dying at triple the rate they already are due to no hospitals/medical providers & their refusal to get vaccinated.

I’m not a huge Taylor fan, but my girls are. I saw that Charlie Kirk responded to her engagement to Travis Kelce by telling her to submit and be a good wife. She’s a billionaire. Travis is not. That tells you all you need to know. As a woman, you can never achieve enough success for them…

STEWART: “I feel like I’m watching something so self-evidently inhumane and horrific and to be told I have to shut up because I risk the Jewish state by speaking out? I would say the opposite — they’re putting the likelihood of a surviving Jewish state much more at risk.”

The 2016 election was on November 8. Trump was declared the winner that night. And, two days later, on November 10, Obama welcomed Trump to the White House as president-elect. That's an, uh, interesting definition of a "coup" there. Most important here -- remember the Epstein Files?

CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery. America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons. Watch and share his message.

A colleague’s husband (who uses fruit flies for his research) is now expressly forbidden from referring to sex-linked genetic variations as “male” and “female”. He can only refer to them as “male” and “non-male” (because “female” is woke, I guess). This obsession with sex/gender is weird.
