Gun Violence in America
Gun violence in America is at a crisis point. Every day, 125 people are killed from guns and more than twice as many are shot and wounded.

United States:
200 people shot daily
125 die
Only 1% of immigrants commit homocides.
The problem isn’t the immigrants.

Good morning and happy Tuesday to everyone. I don’t know who needs to hear this but tumors can be missed during routine checkups. But an ear will not grow back after being shot.

America is in such a sad place right now. I was in Starbucks just now and it was packed and the song “I will survive” came on and I was the only one who danced.

I love that Pope Leo XIV's first private meeting with a world leader after his inauguration was with President Zelenskyy.
I bet JD Vance is seething.
Was Donald even invited to the event?

What a surprise, Pam Bondi and Pete Hegseth have concluded that it would not violate the emoluments clause for Trump to accept a “flying palace” 747-8 jumbo jet from Qatar.

Joe Biden fucked everyone over by running again. I blame him for everything. He should have sat back and let a primary happen.

So let me get this straight: masks are bad and un-American if worn to fight a pandemic, but good if worn by people claiming to be government agents when they kidnap people off the street

Having now watched the footage and interview two of the members who were there, the amount of armed, masked federal agents surrounding three members of Congress and a mayor outside the ICE facility was totally unnecessary; the only possible reason for it was intentional escalation and intimidation.

US pushes nations facing tariffs to approve Musk’s Starlink. Wow the corruption. An internal State Department memo lays it bare:“As the government of Lesotho negotiates a trade deal with the United States, it hopes that licensing Starlink demonstrates goodwill and intent to welcome U.S. businesses.”
