With 45 days until the midterms, I urge you all to: 1) Help get out the vote. 2) Protect our electoral machinery from interference. 3) Not succumb to complacency, defeatism, or cynicism. We are the only ones who can end this nightmare. We are the leaders we’ve been waiting for.

He worked at NASA. Now he tails federal law enforcement on D.C. streets.
A group that has tracked the activity of federal officers since the president’s crackdown has previously been private about the effort.

We’re told wind turbines and solar farms are “ruining the view.” But massive data centers consuming land, water, and electricity get a pass. Somehow only one version of “progress” is treated like a problem. Make it make sense.

With just 17 MSPs, Reform can't influence any policies passed by Holyrood. Instead we're in for 5 years of grandstanding, attention seeking, misgendering trans MSPs then acting as victims, and using Holyrood as a platform for their bile. And the Scottish media will lap it all up.

Russell Findlay is raging about John Swinney "shifting the goalposts" by pressing ahead with a demand for an indyref. But the Unionist parties shifted the goalposts in 2021 when they decided a pro-indy Holyrood majority wasn't a mandate for an indyref. Sauce for the goose, Russell.

first in my bloodline to see someone get excommunicated by a community note
"Magataotao" on Twitter writes: "I am Catholic. This👇is not my Pope."

Attached is a video of the Pope saying that we should search for peace and reject war.

A community note under their tweet says: "You are not a Catholic if you do not accept the Pope, but rather a schismatic.

Canon 751: “Schism is the refusal of submission to the Supreme Pontiff,” ie. the Pope.

The terrorists that attacked Iran have just bombed one of the most elite scientific institutions in the Middle East, Iran’s Sharif University of Technology in the heart of Tehran. Not a military target, they are repeatedly going after schools and medical facilities just like in Palestine.
