I literally don’t know a single woman who hasn’t been raped, stalked, groped, harassed, or sexually violated in some way at some point in their life. If you choose to doubt and dox survivors, just know every woman in your life is disgusted by you.

Jack Smith: "History teaches that the rule of law is rarely destroyed all at once. It's often weakened by attacks on the institutions and the public servants sworn to uphold it. Since January 2025, we have witnessed precisely such an effort."

Let's see the essays. Make them public. Let us read these scrawled golden tickets offered up by Cornell administrators to allow rapists to continue on with their lives unscathed. Was there a required word count? Did any of them use AI to write their "sorry for raping you" pieces? Let us read them.

And look, I have just watched in the last few years almost our entire population of *adults* fold to peer pressure on dropping covid precautions against scientific reality. So I am aware what I am talking about is a huge thing, deeply, deeply uncomfortable, and carries serious social consequences.

I don’t think it’s enough to raise men to be “good men.” I think we have to accept, with the society we have and the influences we have, if you want your son to be one who would step in, one who would never be silent, you have to raise them to be *exceptional.”

I’ve been thinking about the Cornell rape all day. And I have to say, there are very good men in my life, many of them, who are confident and would have stepped in. And I also have to say I think something men and women need to reckon with is that those men are the exception.

Mike Rogers wrote a House Intelligence Committee report which had false information in it about Iranian nuclear power *in 2006*. He was condemned by the IAEA twice. He is now the Republican nominee. Brett McGurk, Biden's top MENA aide, fought against reviving the JCPOA and supports the current war.

37 more wounded troops. Added quietly. No explanation. Here's the No B.S. truth: when anyone (a vendor, a CEO, a government) revises the numbers without telling you why, the silence IS the message. 861 wounded. Their families deserve the full story.

If Ireland’s international footballers decide to refuse to play Israel tomorrow it could set in motion an avalanche of similar acts of defiance against the fascist Israeli regime and solidarity with those being murdered and displaced. It would be phenomenal and a very proud moment for Ireland.

The reason the Supreme Court has bent over backwards to help Trump Is because they know when Democrats gain power of both houses There will be impeachment of judges and changes Or at least there better be, we must never allow such a crooked court ever again Like Trump they think they have immunity
