there's nothing more repulsive than liberals trashing Trump & his supporters for racism while supporting Starmer & Biden administrations actively arming & financing a 14-month genocide--the worst expression of racism

Finally Goncalo Ramos can be Portugal's main man up front with freedom to do what he does best: score goals. He's been so patient waiting for Cristiano to finally get the hell out of the national team. Stay home, Cristiano, the team doesn't need you.

it can feel as though the sex and gender component of the culture wars is not a battle between the forces of feminism and those of anti-feminism, but a disagreement over how best to exploit female bodies and labour. It is not so much a matter of whether to do so, but how, and women and girls are

At the heart of JustBeKindism is the demand that women once again embrace passivity, emotional suppression, intense self-monitoring, the erosion of boundaries, self-doubt and the transfer of female-created resources to male people. When women object to this, they are told not that they are

Hypothetical: a president publicly discloses a private cell phone number to encourage millions to intimidate and disturb a legislator to pass a bill. It meets the criteria for state criminal harassment. Immune under Trump v. United States? Or official conduct that can overcome the presumption?

Similarly, people keep asking me if immigration will get much better if Democrats retake Congress and the answer is "probably not." ICE is largely insulated from Congressional pushback (the 2026 budget reconciliation bill funded them through 2029) and hearings and subpoenas can only do so much.
