It’s time to repeal Section 230. We must be able to take social media companies to court for addicting kids and enabling drug trafficking on their platforms.
Sen. DURBIN: Fentanyl often gets to our kids and young people through the internet.

Being a lawyer and all, do you know what the tipping point is for it to become acceptable to openly advocate for political assassinations? Just a little curious, is all.

aren't smart enough to understand that DEI means finding talent wherever it is. Which means that DEI means you hire more cis white men too. 🙂🙃
But they're different cis white men.

ICE showed up Friday morning to Hamline Elementary School, located in the New City neighborhood, principal Natasha Ortega said at a news conference.
“We will not open our doors for ICE, and we are here to protect our children and make sure they have access to an excellent education,” Ortega said.
