Several years ago I told students in my Electrodynamics class that they could make a final exam formula sheet using "one side of a piece of paper." Needless to say, the instructions now specify that the surface must be orientable. 🧪 ⚛️

For all of the illegal cruel things Geert Wilders and his irrelevant copies have suggested should be done, it's never been this.

I've never seen anyone outright champion this part of the Denmark scheme ever.

You should put the entire Labour leadership in prison.

People are probably calling Labour racist because Labour keep being racist. If they want to stop being called racist they should stop doing racist things.

do not give labour a single vote under any circumstances
The Sun has been told Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood will on Monday propose confiscating jewellery, watches, necklaces from asylum seekers to meet asylum costs

This reflects the most controversial aspect of the Danish scheme - the Jewellery Law. The toughest Labour MPs thought this was OTT

Dems: Mamdani is too radical for our taste. Plus someone said he's antisemitic. And that name is scary to us! We need to keep him out.

Dems, 1 week later: Look lots of people have tattoos like that

Dems, 2 weeks later: Marjorie Taylor Greene, welcome to the Tent

Incredible video from Reddit (too large to upload the screencap). CBP agents attempt to detain a flower vendor and end up getting chased into a vacant lot by a crowd of teenagers. What a bunch of impotent sad sacks.

Here’s a story for every national news outlet:

In N.C., churchgoers are literally running into the woods as federal agents descend on the property.

“Inside the church, women and children sobbed as they wondered whether their loved ones had been taken.”

I think you should gear politics towards those disenchanted with the system because they have deeply affected by the cruelty of it, not those disappointed that it hasn’t been cruel enough

Yeah I'm really frustrated too to see people claiming CORRECTLY that NYT sat on clear evidence of the presidents continued relationship with a serial human trafficker and pedophile. Glad we agree
As a former member of NYT’s finance team & the co-author of this story exposing the relationship between Epstein & Bill Gates as well as one on Epstein & JPMorgan, I am really frustrated to see people claiming that NYT sat on publishable info about Trump and Epstein 🧵 www.nytimes.com/2019/10/12/b...

i think if the democrats had dug in their heels and said "this is the epstein shutdown. trump is starving the country because he doesn't want the epstein files to come out" they probably could have ended him. so it was very kind of them to not do that

to be fair “what’s the point of standards” is the motto of the free press
“I’ve been hearing that standards will be eliminated or severely cut back. Bari has told people that she wants to get rid of standards and is shocked that they have so much power. She also asked openly, ‘What’s the point of standards?’” one CBS source said.

Get his ass
Unlike you, I can read and that’s why I know what the constitution says.
Trump on Ilhan Omar: "I look at somebody who comes from Somalia...and she comes in and tells us how to run our country. 'The Constitution says this, the Constitution says that.' The whole thing is crazy."

You're right, it's my fault the elected Democratic senators folded. My anger at their lack of will to fight made them so sad that they lost their will to fight.
The defeatism on the left after we just had one of the most high profile primary upsets ever, is absolutely insane. The path forward is right there, we just saw a huge step work

Explains so much about why elected Dems roll over and surrender immediately. That's what most of the voter base does too.
Yes, and now everyone realizes we can't win with this team. Time to blow it up and rebuild. Tank for some picks.

Got through to his Chicago number and I ended up calling him a scumbag. Saying we don't understand how the Senate works. We understand very well, you will always sell out the most vulnerable so you can brag about reaching across the aisle and bipartisanship.

I hate these limp-dick Democrat assholes so intensely, man. To stand square in the path of history and choose hand-wringing and capitulation to evil every single time, and then to turn around and have the nerve to lecture us for not voting more?

Senate Democrats are meeting behind closed doors to discuss the emerging deal. “Stay tuned,” Schumer tells us with a grin.
