Trump Angrily Threatened to Sue BBC. Then Things Took a Darker Turn.
First, British Broadcasting Corporation execs resigned after Trump complained about a segment. Now the BBC edited out a line from a historian that was critical of Trump. Where does this end?

Neither Trump, nor half of his cabinet have “ancestors” who were in North America before the revolution. I’d guess that less than half of current US citizens do. “Your ancestors” is doing a lot of implicitly white Christian nationalist work here.

Let's normalise backing up our stated facts on social media (about anything important and contentious) with source links.
If we're the ones with verifiable truth on our side, then let's draw that distinction at every available opportunity. Make taking an Internet stranger's word for it weird again.

Hegseth’s reference to “this nation’s Christian faith” at the end is notable. America is NOT a Christian nation, just for the record. It’s a nation in which everyone is free to worship however they want.
Pete Hegseth says Trump has asked him to add 500 more National Guard troops to Washington D.C.

In July, Elon Musk said Tesla ‘robotaxis’ would be serving “half the U.S. population by year-end.”
So far, he has ~20 vehicles running, each directly operated by a Tesla employee, in one city in Texas.
Still five weeks left to scale this to 171,000,000 people! 😂
