Ahmed al Ahmed, the man who tackled one of the Bondi killers, became an Australian citizen 3 years ago.
His deed was "his way of conveying his gratitude for staying in Australia, for being granted citizenship."
He took 5 bullets, and fears he'll lose his left arm.

It's not just social media. Looks like visitors to the US from Europe and other countries that are part of the visa waiver program will have to submit an enormous amount of data about themselves and their families, including DNA, if proposed new rules are accepted

Calling the press “fake news” is harmful. Calling them “seditious, perhaps even treasonous” for publishing reporting is something else entirely. Treason is a capital crime. Suggesting journalists should face it for exercising their First Amendment rights and doing their jobs is dangerous.

It is not easy to qualify for disability benefits.
The process can take years, is exhausting and dehumanizing.
It’s designed to make people give up and/or die before there’s a payout.
This is why disabled people say they don’t owe you an explanation.

The Spurs-Slavia Pride flag story has some nuance but at its heart it's about a set of bigoted fans getting their way. It also exposes, again, that too much of what sport does in its DEI policies is actual virtue signalling. Either you believe in a principle and stick by it or you don't.

Nothing says racism, cruelty, hatred and weakness combined in one quite like the orange felon removing all free access to National Parks on federal holidays that honor black people whilst giving free access on his own birthday. He should’ve been sent to jail forever.
