We arrested the man who owned rape island. We arrested the woman who brought victims to rape island. But somehow, we still haven’t arrested the men who paid to rape those victims on rape island. Justice made it all the way to the island, then stopped at the disturbingly wealthy guest list.

trump is sending $500 checks to people utilizing the ACA in battleground states with a letter stating that Biden 'overcharged' them through the system. They're only being sent to swing states. This is blatant vote purchasing, and not one fucking thing will happen to him over it.

Manchester City cheated Premier League rules, the Commission found. Did it also cheat HMRC? We've examined the decision and leaked Mancini documents. We think City likely failed to pay £12m in tax. There should be a criminal investigation. Thread:

US media largely is not covering a story about Russia blockading a Ukrainian city and starving them to death. They have to eat weeds and dogs. Ukraine can't evacuate them or get humanitarian aid to them. This is what occupation looks like. This is why Ukraine cannot give up.

Hi. We've got a children's book available in book shops (and places like Amazon). It's called The World According To Sharks. We worked really hard on it and people seem to like it.
If you've got kids or know a kid that might like it, it'd make a great Christmas present. Plus if we sell more we might actually get to make another book.
