What's the difference between:

A: Transwomen
B: Women

Let the "tolerant" crowd explain this one. I'll grab
popcorn.

Trans is an adjective. It's a descriptor. Like tall or fast
or smart. A trans woman is just a woman who was
assigned male at birth and then transitioned at some
point in her life. Just like a tall woman is a woman
who is taller than the average woman. It's just an
adjective. It's really not that complicated.

For instance you are a stupid, bigoted man. Whereas
I am a cool and nice man. We're both men. I'm just
kind of a better type of man.

Republicans are so flustered about Paxton losing Texas that they’re making up wild rumors about Talarico They claim he sought mental health treatment at the Linder Center of Hope in Ohio But both the facility and Talarico exposed the lie-with the candidate saying he’s never even been to the state

Can someone ask CBS News why Ted Koppel said that "Bannon's technically correct; they didn't have standing" in the 60+ cases Trump and his allies lost in 2020. This is verifiably false and is a GOP talking point. Many/most of the cases Trump lost were on the merits. Do they not fact check at CBS?

So many things wrong with this "deal," but also: it's not a "massive" amount. If we actually receive 1,800,000 tons of diesel from Russia, that's equivalent to: * 3.3 days of US consumption, or * 10 days of US *exports*. It's a drop in the bucket. We send more than that overseas every two weeks.

Trump’s deal to buy Russian diesel from Putin just weeks before the midterms funnels money directly into Russia’s war machine. Trump is now facing calls for Congress to block the deal and impeach him. Meanwhile, energy analysts say it’s unlikely to even make a dent in fuel prices.

I think this analysis is correct. Reports out of Russia for the last six weeks show huge diesel shortages and long lines of cars trying to get it. Russia doesn't have the diesel Trump says he's buying for them. This is all for another purpose, which is psy ops.

Before he was appointed, Kash Patel was flagged by FBI counterintelligence agents as being deeply enmeshed in influence operations run by the Russians and Chinese. After he took over, Patel began systematically eliminating all Russian and Chinese counterintelligence capacity. What to make of that?

As Trump focuses the FBI on immigration, counterintelligence is falling behind
The cuts come as a consequence of President Trump and FBI Director Kash Patel's focus on violent crime and immigration, leaving other priorities understaffed.

When they lied about policy or statistics repeatedly or tried to shift blame elsewhere they fooled a lot of gullible people. But when they started lying about things that even the cult knows more about than these out of touch weirdos, that’s when they lost the plot.

U.S. forces are retreating. That's what this means. "Pulled out and returned to their home stations in the U.S. as potential Iranian threats raise base security concerns" is a fancy way of saying the Iranian military has the U.S. military in retreat. This is unbelievably embarrassing.

Truly incredible that this is how the media is choosing to eulogize the longest-serving Republican Speaker of the House in US history, who was a serial sexual abuser of children. For all the talk about "deep state" plots to abuse children, no one even remembers this case.
From CBS News: "Former Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert, who represented Illinois for two decades in Congress and was later jailed for violating banking laws, has died."

Calling suicide “selfish” misunderstands severe mental illness. Someone in that state isn’t making a calm, rational choice—they’re overwhelmed by unbearable suffering and illness that tells them there’s no way out. Suicide is tragic, but it deserves compassion, not judgment.
