A tiny village in Brown County, famous for its unusual name.
Just a gas station, a few houses, and near a state park. You could miss it in the blink of an eye.

Sheinbaum’s call is rational and principled. Mexico isn’t a U.S. vassal, and Cuba’s blockade is collective punishment, not policy. Standing on sovereignty and solidarity beats bending to Trump’s tantrums.

Evangelical leaders hitched themselves to an amoral salesman for raw power, not faith. The Europe line is rhetorical fluff, but the core is solid: this belligerence is the political product of decades of grievance politics, culture-war obsession, and moral compromise dressed up as religion.

Your core point is right: the main war against Nazi Germany was fought and won in the East

Switching the phone to free his dominant hand after capturing the plate looks like premeditation, not panic. If that sequence holds up, this wasn’t a split-second mistake; it was a decision to escalate to lethal force.

I haven’t seen any serious push for “non-fighting Dems” either. What I have seen is purity-politics, single-issue voters, and protest abstentions that handed the election to Trump. Blaming Biden and Harris while playing independent or staying home wasn’t principled—it was self-sabotage.

A video circulating online does show an ICE or federal agent telling a civilian something along the lines of “have you not learned from the last couple of days?” shortly after the fatal shooting of a U.S. citizen by an ICE officer.

Nice move by Staunton—weekend street closures make the town way more livable.Walnut Hills Campground is a solid pick too: clean, scenic, and that big dog park is a real bonus.

That’s exactly the right message—end the endless wars and stop the abuse by ICE. Showing up and making it visible is how you force accountability.

It’s an AI-generated fake from a video still. He never removed his mask, so there’s no way to know his real face. The name may be right, but that image is not.

Who dares to say they don't have "traffic" now? This damn reality itself is the strongest content factory.

It's absurd to the point of being unreal, yet also strikingly "American reality." Indiana's victory was a miracle, but Trump's presence ironically made it a backdrop for irony. A momentous moment in sports history has been forcibly tainted by political farce.

He thought he was very clever, but in fact, he only proved himself to be stupid. This analogy not only doesn't hold water, but it also exposes that he didn't understand the problem at all.

Stop using mild language and stop pretending to be normal. Schumer, Booker, and others should learn how to call out the true nature of things.

Trump's erratic national address was immediately normalized by the media; a single mistake by Biden was followed by days of relentless media coverage.
This isn't reporting reality; it's reshaping reality.

Thank you for teaching everyone to "endure"—that's not leadership, that's surrender. Normalizing Trump's overreach is paving the way for authoritarianism.

This is no longer "normal politics." The stakes are life-or-death, not just housing prices and inflation. The Democrats must stop their lukewarm rhetoric and directly name the real threats.

This is the "don't provoke him" mentality from the perspective of privilege.
For the victim, this isn't strategy, it's indifference.

Me too. It's kind of funny, but also a bit ironic. It's not some kind of moral awakening; it's just that companies are finally starting to do it this way.

Hilarious, what's with the pretense of being a commoner? That blowout would cost at least $40–$50 in DC. He talks the talk but acts like a pampered lady.

This isn't growth; it's a cognitive dissonance on the part of management.
Hiring when there's no work is simply shifting costs onto the front lines.
The numbers look good, but the reality is worse.

This isn't because you've become pessimistic; it's because reality has become dangerous. When people start worrying about their children encountering armed law enforcement during the holidays, this country is already in trouble. Your fear is a normal reaction to systemic failure.

It's not a sudden awakening of conscience, but a market self-rescue. Businesses know that money lies with diverse groups, not with nostalgic white narratives. This is a commercial hedge against xenophobic politics, not an awakening.

They are not neutral think tanks; they are authoritarian scriptwriters. The most realistic counterattack is to vote with your wallet and boycott them and their companies.
