isreal is an apartheid state committing genocide.
"Meanwhile, Israeli military violence against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank is accelerating. The Israeli military has already killed 40 children there so far in 2025—20% of Palestinian deaths in the West Bank this year."

When your "I'm not antisemitic, it's just that ..." defense is "if we push back too hard on antisemitism I might have to eat dinner with some Jews and that would contradict my faith" ...

and just to be clear, fuck fuentes and all his nazi followers. also...

isreal is an apartheid state committing genocide.
If someone on the left says "Israel is an apartheid state" the press will say that they are expressing views that are seen by many as antisemitic. But literal Holocaust denying, explicitly pro-Hitler Nick Fuentes is simply a cause of "heartburn."
I'm still trying to parse this formulation because "heartburn" seems like a mild thing to cause for a major political party when a significant part of its base is allied with a despicable racist and antisemite, but also because by dining with him isn't Trump the one causing the heartburn?

Very interesting insights from Tesla investor Ross Gerber. Obviously he's been doing his homework and is aware of glaring limits / problems with Tesla's FSD. Other investors, are you listening? #Teslatakedown #Musk
"I don't know what's gonna happen with full self-driving, I just think it doesn't work. And I think vision-only systems don't work." Ross Gerber was one of Elon's biggest cheerleaders for years. But he's woken up to the reality: Musk is a fraud. #teslatakedown #MuskMustFall

i feel much safer now.
NBC News finds that:
-- ICE has shortened its training from 13 weeks to six.
-- Nearly half of recruits couldn’t pass an open-book written exam.
-- Recruits "are supposed to attest" they can pass the physical-fitness test, which requires them to run ... 6 mph.

One of the most significant airlifts in recent US history is still ongoing in Alaska.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered the state on Sunday, sweeping some homes into the Bering Strait.

Here, some of the 300 residents being airlifted to Anchorage.
