CBS News would never put a thinly sourced 'story' by a rookie blogger like this on it's air. Until now. The Free Press isn't a journalism outlet, it's bloggers aren't reporters. This piece is more NYPost than Tiffany Network but I guess that's the goal.

Helt sjukt att statsministerkansliet skickar kravlistor till SVT. Ska oppositionen kanske kräva att Uffe slutar ljuga om bidragen eller att Ebba Busch slutar göra hånfulla imitationer av Nooshi Dadgostar? Snacka om lekstuga.

Det Gillström pushar för är alltså rassegregerade skolor. Det är ingen hundvissla, utan ren och skär rasism/vit nationalism.

"Tvångsblandning" är det som på engelska kallas "desgregation", en process som i USA ofta symboliseras av när svarta barn i mitten av femiotalet tilläts att gå i vita skolor (Brown v Bord of Education). Här är bilder från det skeendet.

6-åriga Ruby Ridges går till skolan med kropsskydd för att inte skadas av rasistiska demonstranter.

Rasistisk mobb förföljer en svart flicka på väg in i skolan och ropas skällsord.

En mobb demonstrerar för segregerade skolor, ett av plakaten har texten "All I want for Christmas is a white school"

So Kilmer Abrego-Garcia will not challenge a deportation to Costa Rica, who has agreed to for him residency, but DHS won’t agree to send him there because it’s not cruel enough.

www.nytimes.com/2025/10/10/u...

For weeks, Mr. Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran national who is married to a U.S. citizen, has made clear that he would not challenge his deportation if he were sent to Costa Rica, which has promised him legal residency and guaranteed that he would not be sent back to El Salvador.

But the Trump administration has refused to deport him to Costa Rica, and in an earlier hearing this week, Judge Xinis pressed the administration to consider the option or clarify why it was unacceptable.

Except a drug overdose is also a medical emergency...

Wikipedia: "In October, Bryan posted a snippet of a recording of a new a song called "Bad News" with lyrics apparently critical of the tactics used by ICE (United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement) agents deployed in cities around the country. Supporters of the Donald Trump administration were reportedly displeased with the song.[57][58] Bryan later related a statement through social media saying the intention of the song had been "misconstrued."[59] Among the ensuing controversy, Bryan has attempted to explain that the song had not intended to be partisan or "take sides."[60]"

Do Zionists still think protesting outside a synagogue is antisemitic?

Screenshot from Tali Goldscheft:

PROTEST today at 1 pm!!! 📢📢📢

At the same time as hostages are hopefully being finally released, Zohran Mamdani is speaking at CBE (Congregation Beth Elohim) in Park Slope.

Beyond outrageous.

A major protest by the Brooklyn Jewish community, including CBE congregants and former congregants, will be taking place.

IN BROOKLYN? Join us, rain or shine!!!

So much of Biden's record has been memoryholed. The man's commitment to evil is truly mind boggling. He had a direct personal hand in nearly every atrocity committed by the federal government for half a century. And topped it off with helping direct a genocide, then handing power over to Trump

Sheryl Weikal and the colorful Parrotlegals @leftistlawyer.com · 23h

I fear that in the debate over protesting Harris we will lose the fact that the person most responsible for the genocide in Occupied Palestine is Joe Biden.

The man is not an uwu smol bean grandpa. He attacked Anita Hill and helped put Clarence Thomas on SCOTUS.
