That’s a right wing meme/ethos and the military is coming to left wing areas where guns are largely feared. There isn’t a popular feeling that armed resistance is a thing, let alone effective. 2A–rights–infringing permit to own/carry. Universal “background check” (FFL required for trading weapons)

This creator can be a bit like Chicken Little, but it sure does look like a super volcano near Napoli/Naples in Italy, with significant development and population built right on the volcano’s caldera is gearing to blow!

The “clutching pearls” gesture Newsom does here is priceless 🤣
Newsom: I mean, even poor Kid Rock — these guys, they’ve gotten a little precious, haven’t they? The folks at Fox are like, “Oh, this is so unbecoming of a governor. Oh, oh.”

And meanwhile, they sit there reading his tweets every single day. Are they really that out of touch?

According to the chief of police, the SWAT teams discovered the shooter, with a gunshot wound, possibly from the first responding officer (otherwise self–inflicted). They did not “canoe” him. They tried to render aid. Because they’re not monsters. This anchor should take note.
"They have taken down the threat here, that is what they do.
They don't shoot to injure when these type of situations happen. Because, again, this person put this whole neighborhood on lockdown. And this often happens... they're not going to shoot you in the leg..."

"Shooter!! We've only got 24 cars on the scene, BACKUP BACKUP!!"
"It's on a school campus! Lock down all the schools across the county!"
Of course, they don't even check those buildings before declaring the lockdown over, let along clear them room by room. Is all that really needed? #ATLshooter

I reckon this guy’s done enough for a free trip to Severny Island with a letter of recommendation for Russian citizenship!
In a counterintelligence sting operation, a US soldier with Top Secret clearance passed on classified data on the Abrams tank and even hardware to a person he believed to be a Russian spy.
22-year old Taylor Adam Lee wanted Russian citizenship in exchange.

This legend held out on a critical House Budget Bill (The “Big BS Bill”). Yay for Republican spine on Ukraine! Will it result in an amendment, or just some back room negotiations to flip someone else?

Safely moved because Captain Bone Spurs telegraphed the strike because his ability to think ahead and consult with experienced military strategists rests on the decaying pile of mush he calls his brain and its unreasoned findings aka “instinct”. Strike needed to be hours after Iran’s AD destroyed
The fate of Iran's nuclear programme depends significantly on what happened to the material, enriched to levels just short of weapons-grade. www.ft.com/content/12a8...

Impressive! But folks, it takes 3.5% of the population to come out to prevent dictatorship, so unfortunately… we didn’t quite get there, and now the fate is sealed. So if you could take this shovel and start digging a grave, that would be appreciated.
‘No Kings’ Was Biggest Protest in 🇺🇸History: Data Analyst www.thedailybeast.com/data-guru-g-... G Elliot estimated 4-6 million people—so up to 1.7% of the 🇺🇸population) participated in #NoKings protests. Others claim as many as 11 million (up to 3.24%) showed up!

Either way biggest US protests ever.

Walmart raising the before tax price due to a duty? On the before-tax price?

So are you telling me we’re also paying additional sales tax, taxing the tariff tax we’re also paying?

We need to send a message to the glorious leader and ask for his help.

We need NO TAX ON TARIFFS!!
🚨 WALMART RAISING PRICES DUE TO TARIFFS

“We will do our best to keep our prices as low as possible but given the magnitude of the tariffs, even at the reduced levels announced this week, we aren’t able to absorb all the pressure given the reality of narrow retail margins,” Walmart CEO says.

Cool, let’s refer to our chart describing the biology of sex. The British courts are saying now, to keep things simple, you can ignore the easiest part of the chart: the self-identified gender info box in the top middle.

Someone from the new media press gaggle needs to press this question: why is the US pursuing any resumption of normalcy in lieu of a completed 30–day ceasefire and a comprehensive peace plan?

This is madness.
US, according to Reuters, is exploring ways to restore Russian gas flow to Europe.
