Audience members wildly chant "USA! USA!" as a 100% unAmerican scene unfolds, a woman exercising her first amendment right to be heard and to dissent, while the illegitimate president of the unUnited States gloats and, as always, encourages division and hate.

7 shots fired into an SUV with a 5-year-old child in the back seat as the vehicle was moving away. Markwayne Mullin claims the driver “weaponized” his vehicle. Bullshit! “Weaponized vehicle” has become ICE’s go-to excuse for shooting folks. Where’s the evidence? It’s not in this new footage.

When my father was faculty at Cornell he was stopped by the police chief in the street & asked who he was & where he was going. When he balked at the fact that no one but him, an Arab man, was being asked, the chief said “I’m just protecting students” Same guy failed to investigate 7 rapists.

Still have never once heard a single rational, thoughtful argument supporting just how two other people's love for one another somehow threatens Alito's and his ilk's "faith" or sexuality. How does that possibly harm Alito?

Systematically destroying US hegemony in higher-education may feel like "owning the libs" but (1) Education is massive export for US (2) Best & brightest from around world stay in US and start businesses here (3) Higher-education is key employer & medical life-line in many *Republican* states.

If they’re admitting 81 planes, drones and helicopters worth $3.3 billion have been lost in Iran, imagine what they’re not telling us. The real cost is likely far higher, and our grandchildren will be paying for this unnecessary war and his reckless spending. www.businesstoday.in/amp/world/st...
