77% of Democratic voters say Israel is committing genocide and 75% want to cut off weapons to Israel. But HRC is out on the road claiming that TikTok and “totally made up” videos are the blame for young people’s opposition to genocide.

Well, Senators Bill Cassidy and Thom Tillis, you wanted RFK Jr. to “go wild” at HHS.
Congratulations. You’ve achieved your goal. He is well on his way to completely destroying the US vaccine program.

OMG, further Proof of Trump’s Big Lie and proof Trump is Inciting Violence. Recently he stated that the six Members of Congress that reminded Our Proud Military, that their Oath states it is OK to not follow an Illegal Order, enraged Trump, who said All Six should be Killed.

Before manufactured Zionism, the Middle East countries got along relatively well.
Zionism had nothing to do with holy land. In fact, those forming the state of Israel looked at Argentina to colonize because of their fertile land.
Palestine just made better propaganda.

Seems to be good evening viewing for an impressionable pre-kindergarten young'un in whom you want to cultivate life-long night terrors.
This kindertrauma scene from Nutcracker Fantasy (1979), a Japanese stop-motion animated film by Sanrio, loosely based on the Tchaikovsky ballet.
Ragman, a mysterious old man who roams the city looking into people's houses and turns children into mice if he catches them up past their bed time.

As awful as this, the focus on whether the woman was complying obscures the more important issue: in a democracy, there should not be armed agents demanding to see papers of every passing person.
“Traumatized, humiliated, degraded.”
The nurse, a US citizen, 4’11”, 85 lbs, says she was following orders when she was dragged out of her car by masked immigration agents in Florida.
It was the 3rd time she had been stopped and told to produce ID.
