This is pure, unabashed bigotry.
If a politician said this about any other faith, they would rightfully be run out of their party.
But this kind of despicable anti-Muslim rhetoric is so normalized that a sitting Senator uses it without consequence.
A stain on our Congress.

I don't think it can last.
I think the inevitable crash would be funnier if they could beat Arsenal next week tok though.

I do think that this will prove another false dawn for Man United, though. Not only is this counterattacking approach unsuitable for most matches, but the emotional impetus of a Manchester derby is rarely matched. Still, Arsenal at the Emirates is next. Rinse & repeat?

Is this something I can put money on, in one of those dumb websites that let's me gamble on life events? Because this is for sure going to happen.
The odds of at least one team being detained or prevented from coming to the World Cup seems super high to me at this point

Now this Administration is shooting unarmed mothers in their cars? Their cruelty knows no bounds. We need a full investigation immediately, and based on what I saw in the video — somebody must be brought to justice.

It’s important to contextualize just how much less safe American drivers are than everywhere else in the world, and it’s getting worse!

This appalling, isn't the point of a Real ID that it's proof of lawful status?
Bovino, the man overseeing mass deportations, publicly declared that we must all have our papers on us, at all times, or we could be stopped, harassed, kidnapped, and detained, as they did with the man in this case, who is a US citizen.

Every time I start to think about pulling the MSU gear out of the attic, they remind me why I put it there in the first place
I seriously have no idea why you’d hire Pat Fitzgerald. He wasn’t a playcaller or strategic mind, his whole schtick was selling Northwestern Culture because he played there, and then it turns out that culture featured a brutal atmosphere of sexual hazing

Problem is, if they did that, they would have to become anti-capitalist, because capitalism at the end of the day is one huge scam. Owners steal the surplus value produced by workers and enrich themselves, which then is used to reshape society through laws, regulations, advertising and PR.

Sen Kelly wants to be president and is widely seen as boring, safe, and non-confrontational. Combined with the administration's lack of success in vendetta cases. No way this isn't good for his career.
BREAKING: The Pentagon says it's investigating Sen. Mark Kelly for possible military law violations after he joined a video urging U.S. troops to refuse "illegal orders."

Legal or not, it's very clear now that Trump isn't going to pay some federal workers.
Breaking news: The Trump administration is sending messages to federal staff suggesting only those who are working during the government shutdown will be paid when it ends, despite a 2019 law that guarantees pay to furloughed employees, too.
Administration hints furloughed workers may not be paid after shutdown
Agencies are sending messages indicating that workers who are on the job will be paid when the government reopens — with no mention of those on furlough, despite a 2019 law protecting their wages.

My mom's college roommate is also my aunt. It's insulting the things people think they can turn into scandals. And anyone out there pretending it is one is just a bigot or capitalist looking for an excuse to turn the other way
Your dad's cousin is your aunt. I am from a family of plain boring white people and my kids call my wife's cousins who live around here and they see all the time "aunt/uncle." This is not even some "see, in other cultures," thing this is just a total normal thing they are presenting as scandalous

Trump pardoning the guy who helped boost his family's crypto scheme is par for the course, but we can’t look away.
He’s abusing his power again and again to enrich himself and his family.

The first time I paid $60 for a game I got mad for like 2 minutes, then realized it made sense, because I'm an adult. I'd paid the same price for games for a decade, and prices of a quality product will naturally increase with inflation
AAA video games should cost $100 on launch. this would still be extremely cheap for the amount of time and enjoyment you get out of them! But an audience of whiny babies has kept them literally at the same price for *two decades* despite both general inflation *and* sector-specific costs rising

I was a young white man in a rural area where the unfamiliar would expect this sort of phase to be normal. I can assure you I nor my friends had a Nazi phase. I'm sure some did, but I wasn't friends with them, and there was likely a reason for that.
this also drives me insane, this idea that it is the most normal thing in the world for a young (white) man to have a nazi curious phase. it isn’t!

At this point it doesn't even matter what the files say. The delay and hiding of the files has likely convinced people Trump is guilty. If there's anything to learn from things like the Benghazi Hearings, it's that the constant association of two things will sink in and just start to feel 'true'
This is a key talking points that should be echoed everyday by Democrats and ties directly to the Epstein Files, which is Trump's Achillese Cankle.
Why aren't Republicans swearing Rep Grijalva???

Jeffries says Dems "have made clear privately and publicly" to Mike Johnson that Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva (D-Ariz.) must be sworn in.
"Why the delay?" he asks. "Does it have anything to do with Republicans continuing effort to hide the Epstein files from the American people?"

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...
