As an expat australian I would like to see the unarmed moslem man who tackled the gunman at bondi awarded the highest possible award for heroism. The very definition of heroism.

What is clear is that while Trump may claim immunity over the murders of civilians who may be drug smugglers that immunity does not extend to Hegseth who may now face international arrest warrants for war crimes in the not to distant future.

A reminder: Trump ordered the Afghanistan withdrawal, Trump granted the shooter asylum in April. Trump also dismantled the joint terrorism task force, and gutted our national security apparatus. Trump ordered the National Guard to DC
The DC shooting is all on Trump zip to do w Biden or the Democrats

Smajo Beso • Follow 3d • © I started school in Newcastle in Year 5 without knowing a word of English. I was nine years old and had arrived as a refugee from Bosnia just a couple of months earlier. I was one of those strangers our politicians often speak about. I missed my grandparents and friends. I was having awful nightmares, and I would wake up screaming every single night. I hated going to school. I would sit in my chair, look out of the window, and spend my day daydreaming about ways to run back to Bosnia. I didn't want to be here. After a couple of weeks at school, my teacher, Miss Webster, and my classmates did something special to help me settle, something that made me feel less of a stranger. That was the first day I went home with a smile on my face. I have shared this story before, but as tomorrow is start of the new school year, I thought I would share it again. ** Miss Webster was amazing, but I couldn't understand a word she was saying. She had this ritual where, at the end of each day, we would all sit on the floor around her, she would play the guitar, and we would all sing a song together. I couldn't understand what they were singing, but I could see she would sing one part of the song, then she would say someone's name or point to them. The next part of the song would be sung with that person's name in it, and they would get to go home first. My classmates loved this, but I hated it. It annoyed me because I couldn't understand what they were singing, but if I am honest, l hated it mainly because of how happy they all were. I definitely wasn't happy. I cried myself to sleep nearly every night. I eventually started having separate English lessons, which I enjoyed more because it took me out of the classroom. It was always daunting coming to school because I felt everyone was looking at me or speaking about me. For months, my dad would stand with me outside the school gates in the morning until it was time to go in. One day I came back into the classroom from my English lesson. We sat down, and everyone was extra-excited, looking at me more than usual for some reason. Of course, I thought it was because I was a refugee, because I couldn't speak English, or because they couldn't pronounce my name. I was bracing myself for another afternoon of my classmates encouraging me to sing. This was probably the closest I came to running out. So we were all sitting on the floor around Miss Webster. She was holding her guitar, ready to sing. I remember the sun shining through the tall, narrow windows as I slowly drifted into a daydream of being back in Bosnia. She began playing the guitar, my classmates joined in, but this time, everything was different. I froze. I understood what they were signing. Not because I had miraculously learned English in one afternoon, but because they were singing in Bosnian for me. I looked around in shock, and they were all smiling at me, and for a moment I thought I was daydreaming. While I was having separate English lessons, Miss Webster had taught our entire class to sing this song for me in Bosnian. They sang it terribly, but it was the most beautiful thing I had ever heard. I skipped home that day with a huge smile on my face. For the first time, I looked forward to going back to school the next day. I have often imagined Miss Webster and my classmates rehearsing, struggling with the strange Bosnian words and laughing at themselves. For me, that effort was the ultimate recognition, an act of peace that felt like the opposite of everything I had known during the war. It was special. I do not know if they realised it then, but that moment helped to give me back my dignity, my belonging, and, for the first time in a long time, I didn't feel like I was just a refugee or an outsider. I was home.

PSA | Apparently this image is so dangerous it will get you automatically deported on arrival in the USA.
It is therefore imperative that you do not - I repeat DO NOT - distribute it as widely as possible.

The last country I remember bombing another countries faculties without bothering to declare war had its leaders tried as war criminals and executed by the USA. Turn about seems fair play

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

basically every study says that students do better in school with less homework & later start times and workers do better with more vacation days & shorter shifts, but we do the exact opposite in this godforsaken country because Puritanical feelings
apparently beats facts.

They think that by appeasing the dictator they will survive and thrive. They ignore the lessons of history because they think they ate special whereas history teaches they are replaceable in an instant

Does anyone have a single reasonable argument for why democrats should be censuring their own for standing up to the dismantling of our Republic?

Warning: the following rationale will get you insta-blocked.

- decorum
- norms
- rules
- high road

I'm wondering if Trumps stated aim of revoking birth right citizenship of undocumented or illegal migrants will apply to Barron or to Elon's children or just to those pesky non white people.

It appears another Russian ship (the Landing vessel Caesar Kunikovv) has been promoted to submarine. for a country with no navy Ukraine seems to be remarkably good at this.
