A video from inside a Border Patrol vehicle shows agents chasing a US citizen for filming them. The citizen refused to get out when they illegally ordered him to stop. The agents say: "This is great." "This is fun." "He's going to get shot."

Possible that Bezos is in the files but remember that WaPo is run by an English guy now and the English are committed to the principle that there should be a class of rich people who simply cannot be held to account by their inferiors.
The Washington Post editorial board decided the Epstein files have “no public interest” before even seeing them. That’s a stunning position for any newsroom to take. Praising Clay Higgins as the lone ‘no’ vote, too? No wonder no one trusts legacy media. Absolutely disgusting.

The teenager told officers he was a U.S. citizen, but an officer broke the car’s driver’s side window and detained him. In a video, the boy can be heard telling an officer that he is a citizen, to which the officer replies, “Get out of the car” and “I don’t care.”

The #Canes have tied last year's team for the second-fewest games in franchise history to reach the 30-point mark (21 games).

The only season in which the team required fewer games was 2021-22 (19 games).

One of the very many reasons why I have not a single ounce (not one) of respect for RFK Jr’s MAHA cult is that they are not just dismantling vaccination & issuing harmful dietary advice (eat more saturated fat!)—they’re also sickening us through spewing dangerous chemicals poisoning the environment

hey Canes fans, please welcome book lover and fellow Caniac Eliza to Bluesky:
Hi! Thank you! I've been on here for a bit, just been waiting for some fellow Caniacs to appear on my timeline! And finally had someone! I'm into the weather, work at one of our Wake County Libraries, and work at the new bookstore in Garner.

There was a massive concerted propaganda campaign from the people who control the platforms with the largest audiences in the country to rewrite history and attribute to Trump everything people missed about the pre-Covid world and economy
The baffling part is how many people were giving him the benefit of the doubt in January and now don't approve. They got new information and changed their mind. But he was already president before! How did you not already know he sucks??

When he told them he was born in Raleigh, the agent questioning him grew angry, Vazquez said. They abruptly pulled off the road into the parking lot of a carpet cleaning company, where they dumped him, a half mile away from where they picked him up.

If you're trying to convince your friends to spend time on Bluesky rather than X, maybe show them this. X is not "the public town square" or about "free speech." It's "just what Elon Musk wants you to see." If you see stuff he doesn't like he'll step in to make sure you don't see it for long.
If you scroll on X, you are only being shown what Elon wants you to see. If you create content on X, no one will see it unless Elon wants them to.
