Found the actual men in women's bathrooms assaulting women.
ICE agents illegally break into a woman's bathroom in a NY nutrition bar manufacturing plant. "Pull up your pants," says a male agent. The agents only had a warrant to review employer documents. They didn't have a warrant to search for, detain, or arrest anyone there.

This is a joke but also not. Russia’s solution for all their disasters is to put a cope cage on it.

All Russia has after 4 years of failing to take Ukraine’s tiny Donetsk region is cope.

There is, in fact, an easy solution to the transgender bathroom problem. Bigots can use one restroom and normal people who aren't trying to inspect your genitals can get the other.

2016 Daily Mail: We want foreigners out! We don’t care if it makes us poorer. Brexit means Brexit!

This country would be so much better off without this hypocritical, incendiary, irresponsible rag.

If a Tankie tries to tell you that lend lease made no difference to Soviet fight against Nazis, ask them how, without western aid, Russia has taken 10 months to move 40 miles from Avdiivka to Pokrovsk.

More than 20 times less than the Red Army managed in WW2.

What do the American people get from an alliance with Russia? Yes, Trump's family and friends will be given billions of dollars from Putin. But how do regular Americans prosper from betraying all of our European friends and allies?

Can we stop having most big hacker conferences in the U.S. please, as only people who support Trump publicly will be allowed into the country from overseas.
Requiring temporary visitors to surrender five years of social media to the U.S. sends the message that the American commitment to free speech is pretense. This simply is not the behavior of a country confident in its freedoms.

It's a threat to free speech around the world and must be opposed.
Foreign tourists could be required to disclose 5 years of social media histories under Trump administration plan
The Customs and Border Protection proposal would apply even to countries that don't require visas to enter.
