There’s a reason academics universally rejected the initial push to canonize Charlie Kirk as a saint devoted to free speech.

We know all too well that’s the exact opposite of reality.

I know this case is all over - & it should be - but Turning Point USA has waged a harassment campaign against faculty for more than a decade. I know of at least a half dozen other faculty, personally, who have received death threats and several of those who felt so unsafe they too left their homes

Are we great yet?

Mark Bray, a Rutgers University professor and expert on anti-fascist groups, is fleeing to Spain with his family due to death threats that stem from a campaign by Turning Point USA and other conservative groups to get him fired, falsely labeling him as an antifa member.

More news on Portland's "Antifa" terrorists protesting at the ICE facility:

The twerking Toad has now been joined by 3 Frogs, 2 dancing Unicorns, one Raccoon, Dino the dinosaur, Panda, Shark, & a few others.

A clear and present danger of too much polyester, but that's about it.

This is accurate. "I will never change my mind about anything and will reject as false any information that might cause me to" is a core part of MAGA identity.

Legit don’t think there’s anything Trump could do to drop below like 39-40% approval.

He could crash the economy AND have the military shooting people in the streets and he’d still poll at like 39.9% lol

This administration is a dull-minded, paranoid, gullible old man surrounded by twenty cranks, thousand-year-reich zealots, and single-issue lunatics, all with phones, running around saying, "Show him this! He'll like this! Make sure he sees this!"

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

The Rutgers TPUSA chapter — whose characterization of a historian there as a “outspoken, well-known antifa member” led to death threats and moving his family to Europe — think *other* people are being “blatantly defamatory.”

Not them, though. They’re doing politics the right way.

Think it's slightly odd that we haven't heard anything about Amazon's big holiday action-comedy THE MAN WITH THE BAG for quite a while. 🧐

Especially when Amazon just announced November 12 release date for a different Alan Ritchson action-comedy, PLAYDATE.

I’m starting to think they might not have been serious about wanting to stop fentanyl smuggling and child sex trafficking
bgrueskin.bsky.social
“A federal team in El Paso that once pursued child traffickers has been disbanded.

“A task force in Kansas focused on stemming fentanyl has been redirected.

“Highway checkpoints near the border—on roads identified as major drug-trafficking routes—have gone unstaffed”
