When you're freaking out about your crime spree orders potentially being refused as unlawful, great signal to throw under the bus the special operations guys most willing to do crimes for you.
REPORTER: Does the administration deny that that second strike happened, or did it happen and the administration denies that Hegseth gave the order?

LEAVITT: The latter. Secretary Hegseth authorized Admiral Bradley to conduct these kinetic strikes. He worked well within his authority and the law.

Quand le nouveau Président de la STM (Aref Salem) est un ancien propriétaire de station de service, c'est ça que ça donne...
*** correction

Conseil d’administration de la STM

Catherine Morency et Suzanne Lareau, deux membres indépendantes, ne verront pas leur mandat renouvelé au C.A. de la STM.

Il ne reste ainsi que deux membres indépendants sur le C.A.. : jeunesse et transport adapté.
« Il est pertinent de faire du recrutement basé sur des compétences » affirme Catherine Morency, une des plus grandes expertes en mobilité que compte le Québec.

1. It would appear that in recent reporting, the BBC is now using the phrase "biological male who identifies as a woman" when they mean to talk about a transgender woman.

This is an incredibly demeaning way to talk about transgender women in news pieces.

BBC Now Calling Trans Women 'Biological Males Who Identify As Women'
These stories come in the aftermath of allegations that a small but mighty cabal of “LGBT reporters” had somehow seized control of the BBC and “censored” right-wing views.

Going to war as "a favor to our oil companies" used to be something Republicans vigorously denied.
Rep. Salazar: "We're gonna be doing a favor to us, to our children, to our economy, to our oil companies to be able to liberate. And to Venezuelans who wants to be free."

“Dying and old” lol

Tina Peters is 70, a decade younger than Trump.

(Also she was convicted by a jury of using her authority as country clerk to turn off security cameras and give a Q Anon loony access to voting machine hard drives.)

Zohran Mamdani standing beside the President of the United States just said that the US is funding Israel's genocide and yet can't take care of its own unhoused children on live television.

I never thought I'd see something like that in my lifetime

Zohran: I dunno you want to sink the GOP nominee for governor?

Trump: no problem!
Q: Stefanik has called Mamdani a 'jihadist.' Do you think you're standing next to a jihadist right now?

Sets for Batman Returns were kept very cold for the comfort of the real-life penguins involved. This meant that cast/crew repeatedly got sick during filming. The real-life penguins though would often fall in love with their animatronic counterparts or feel so settled that they began mating.

So that means they're going to stop receiving their publicly-funded healthcare coverage?
4 senior House Dems — Hakeem Jeffries, Katherine Clark, Pete Aguilar, & Ted Lieu — voted for a Republican-led resolution to “CONDEMN SOCIALISM,” a symbolic measure that passed the chamber on Wed. The vote comes as NYC mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani is set to meet with Pres. Donald Trump at the WH today.

By the way, for those who want to know why this denialist line is nonsense: disinfecting clothes actually requires a lot *more* Zyklon B than killing humans does - low levels of cyanide residue on the chamber walls prove that it *wasn't* being used for the former!
French authorities are taking X to court because Grok is now doing straight up holocaust denial. Gas chambers intended for disinfection, cyanide residue tiny, ‘story’ persists because of taboo against critical examination. (Full translation in alt text)

The massive question all the "the rich are overtaxed" people need to answer: if that's true, how come there has been so much accumulation of wealth and assets at the top of society, while the poor and middle have slowly had their wealth squeezed or outright removed?
As a non Brit, your Public Services are drastically underfunded and need serious reforms. But the problem is not that the state has gone too hard on the rich lmao

The US is extorting Zelenskyy to sign away territory Russia doesn't even hold, as well as Ukraine's ability to defend itself, on the basis of Putin's word he'll honor a peace and Trump's word the US will make him.

Just so we're clear what's happening here.
