New in PN: Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism “'I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable,' Judge Young fumed. 'I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this.' *More of this, please*"

Why for much of the British press, the unlikely story of Reform UK's rise to power is simply "too good to check"

Oh the (lack of) joy of living in a 51-49% world, constantly balancing precariously between liberalism and illiberalism. One day, hopefully, there will be a decisive shift back towards liberalism. Perhaps.

Jessica: When you actually read the transcript of what Trump is talking about, he said oh, Biden's brain is mush, he has stage nine cancer, which is not real, oh, by the way, I just aced a cognitive test.. and we're supposed to believe he is 6'3" and 224 pounds which makes him an NFL wide receiver

Happy 99th birthday to the man who gave voice to the wild. 🎉 Sir David Attenborough, thank you for a lifetime dedicated to the natural world, and for sharing its story with wisdom, wonder, and grace. You've inspired generations to fall in love with nature.
This photograph captures Sir David Attenborough seated outdoors on the rugged terrain of Skomer Island. Behind him, the ocean and coastal cliffs form a scenic backdrop under a clear sky. Sir David, dressed in a khaki jacket and light trousers, looks towards the camera with a gentle expression, exuding a sense of warmth, calm, and wisdom. Around him, puffins can be seen flying and perched on the rocky ground, illuminated in rays of golden sunlight as the sun sets behind the cliffs.

An anniversary worth marking. I'm sure we're going to see the very people who have trashed its legacy seek to appropriate WW2 today - so let's remember what was really fought for: peace, a more united Europe, a land fit for heroes (mark 2) and the defeat of fascism.

THE most important political issue facing us now is our corrupt campaign finance system & Citizens United. As long as Musk, AIPAC & crypto money can buy politicians, we’re not living in a democracy. We must end billionaire control of our politics and publicly fund elections.

Less than two weeks after Pope Francis's passing, the man who is the poster child for the Seven Deadly Sins posted a picture of himself depicting him as the Pope. This is not only offensive to millions of Catholics but is a stark insight into the mind of a deeply disturbed individual. Appalling.

There's strong evidence that women's participation in security efforts makes countries safer. That's why leaders in over 100 countries have taken action to further it. One of them—who signed the U.S. Women, Peace & Security Act into law in 2017—was Donald Trump.

@DeptofDefense. WPS is yet another woke divisive/social justice/Biden initiative that overburdens our commanders and troops — distracting from our core task: WAR-FIGHTING. WPS is a UNITED NATIONS program pushed by feminists and left-wing activists. Politicians fawn over it; troops HATE it. DoD will hereby executive the minimum of WPS required by statute, and fight to end the program for our next budget. GOOD RIDDANCE WPS!
