Gavin Newsom & Ben Shapiro sat down to discuss Israel’s genocide in Gaza. Or rather, spread disinformation on why there is no genocide.
I bring the receipts as a human rights lawyer to debunk their grotesque propaganda in real time, arming you with facts to recognize these lies for what they are.

Nakedly and unabashedly oligarchic. Congress is a coequal branch of government and it’s time it acts like it.

Social media isn’t driving the teenage “loneliness epidemic”. Teenagers’ loneliness was the same in the 1970s,1980s, and 1990s long before anyone heard of TikTok or smartphones.

Anyone who still defends Establishment Democrats just doesn't read enough. They secretly enable fascism so they can campaign off it. They've been doing it for a long time. They did it again last night.

I think when the history of this moment is written, it will become apparent that the oligarchs made a key mistake in their attempt to seize power. They hitched their wagon to a historically unpopular, 79 year old, term-limited Trump.

Sad to see this go.

To go from getting EX cards in every pack to basically nothing with Mega Rising is an adjustment for sure.

There is zero credibility to the conspiracy theory about Hasan Piker's dog.
Taylor Lorenz breaks down this harassment campaign and more in this video. But off the top, you should know:
“The idea that Hasan is somehow secretly abusing his dog…is just completely made up.”

For two years, Israel has killed 92 people a day on average—and 27 of them are children.
This is what happens every day our government allows the genocide to continue.
