Mahmoud Khalil should be at home with his pregnant wife.
Instead, he's been illegally abducted & had his constitutional right to free speech & due process stripped.
We're demanding his immediate release and we cannot allow this abuse of power to go unchecked. #FreeMahmoudKhalil

Is Trump about to get Maga to go all electric? #silverlining
Haha this is so fucking sad. People keep saying "oh ho ho ho you're all celebrating Tesla stocks tanking as if that matters to these bastards" and THERE YOU GO it obviously fucking DOES matter to them. Ego-wise and materially.
Trump says he’s going to buy a Tesla tomorrow because people are “illegally” boycotting Tesla.

Bet this doesn't get splashed across the front pages
The UK has a number of Sustainable Farming Incentive schemes supporting farmers, delivering sustainable food production and help nature recover.
Only Labour inherited a system which was failing to allocate all it's money, meaning farms were losing out.

JD Vance is crying again. This time, he claims he and his daughter were “confronted” by pro-Ukraine protesters while walking near his home. Sounds dramatic, right? Except the video tells a different story. Let’s smite his lies.

Europe is not "pulling back" on trans care.
