"a single person of this demographic may have committed a crime, therefore we must punish the entire demographic" is a policy response you may recognize from fascist governments dedicated to ethnic cleansing elsewhere.
It didn’t even take 6 hours.

This is the scandal. Trump isn’t targeting dangerous people. He’s targeting peaceful immigrants. Almost exclusively.

There is a certain kind of Catholic convert who thinks they are more Catholic than the Pope.
“In these lectures, Thiel doesn’t just flirt with the apocalyptic. He goes all in — openly discussing the Antichrist, naming Pope Leo XIV as a potential manifestation of that figure, and, most disturbingly, advising JD Vance to ignore the pope on moral matters altogether.”
In newly leaked audio, Peter Thiel admits he urged JD Vance to ignore Pope Leo XIV on moral questions — including the ethical development of AI.

He goes even further, branding Leo “the woke American pope” and suggesting he’s a tool of the Antichrist.

Emmanuel, a 15-year-old with intellectual disabilities, wandered away from his mom’s fruit stand in October.

She reported him missing to Houston police. But instead of reuniting them, the city turned him over to ICE.

“They’re failing all of us,” his mom said.

Charlie Kirk being a glib asshole about gun violence at the moment he was killed by the kind of gun violence he was being a glib asshole about is some bad absurdist comedy shit.

The press: “Kamala, what is your position on updates to section 420(c)69 of the internal revenue code? Too slow, you dumb bitch, never gonna be president.”

Also the press: “mr. Vance you’re so dreamy, tell us more about Ohio.”
Amazing how many articles there were about “Kamala Harris, what does she do? What policy debates does she participate in? How is she “messing up the border?” And the current VP is just a full on shitposter and the political press goes, “ah well, nevertheless”
This is real, somehow

This is a view from the surface of Comet 67P.

The busy particles in the foreground are cosmic rays or bits of dust and ice.

The dots moving in the background are stars.

At Stonewall these people would be telling everyone to stop focusing their outrage on the cops because they’re not amendable to change. It’s so stupid.
they’re taking Murc’s Law literally out here

Research shows increased immigration enforcement in schools is associated with chronic absenteeism, drops in enrollment, exacerbation of racial disparities in student outcomes, and negative physical and mental health among children in immigrant families. on.kff.org/3YhQA7d

I lost my job, my kids have measles, and I had to drive my parents 200 miles to a Social Security office, but at least I know that immigrants are getting sent to torture prisons in El Salvador.
