Gotta love how he literally cannot talk to a 4th grader for three minutes about Santa without being an enormous asshole
The phone rings. Would your 10-year-old like to speak with the president? He’s tracking Santa Claus from his living room in Palm Beach.

“I’m not going to let you woke scolds bully me into not admiring my prominent nazi aunt”
"Growing up in NYC watching Ann sell books, argue on news shows & make Coulter a household name was empowering to witness for a young girl who was hesitant to accept the liberalism that consumed her city. “I was often bullied into not admiring Ann growing up,” says Kim."

I don't think free speech on campus ought to mean that a young coddled bigot gets to use their ignorance to casually destroy the career of a knowledgeable trans person on a random Wednesday
Worth noting that the student admits that she just threw the thing together in 30 minutes without reading the paper she was supposed to be responding to.

This is totally underreported. Trump is not just going after "illegals." He's going after people who were here legally, by changing their status.
These are people who entered the US the right way, and never broke a law. Now they are subject to Trump's whim, his ICE goons, and inhuman detention.

Trump has revoked legal status for at least 1.6 million immigrants over the past year by cancelling programs like TPS and student visas.
Remember: these are people who entered the country legally.
Trump never cared about “legal immigration" — just inflicting cruelty.

This is 100% correct
they should have just shot everyone at malheur in the head and walked away
there's a through-line in my mind (probably pigeon superstition tho) from the Malheur fiasco to this, where it seems like the Dems really do believe there's enough agitated right-wingers ready to start shooting that they need to walk on eggshells to avoid a civil war

bari weiss saw this and decided that she had to hide it from the american public
Guards began beating him. Beat him until he bled. Knocked his face into the wall, broke all his teeth. No access to outdoors, no contact with relatives.
Now describing US knowledge of CECOT's torture practices, followed by footage of Trump praising those practices.

The break-even point on taking social security, even ignoring opportunity costs and inflation, is something like 87 years old. Why would you wait almost a decade longer to retire if you didn’t have to?
When claiming Social Security, the best financial move you can make is to wait until age 70. There’s just one catch: Hardly anyone takes that advice. Here’s what to know when you’re planning the unplannable.
Should You Really Wait Till 70 to Take Social Security?
The standard advice is to hold off, but most retirees claim the benefit as soon as they can, at age 62. Here’s what to know when you’re planning the unplannable.

It’s very clear that the nominal populous needs a cultural stake in democracy that’s atrophied only further after Reaganism accelerated atomization. We need liberal propaganda with American characteristics, bring back the New Deal aesthetic

Found the actual men in women's bathrooms assaulting women.
ICE agents illegally break into a woman's bathroom in a NY nutrition bar manufacturing plant. "Pull up your pants," says a male agent. The agents only had a warrant to review employer documents. They didn't have a warrant to search for, detain, or arrest anyone there.

i don’t think everyone needs to like every film but the way people refuse to even take the avatar series seriously in any capacity feels so performative in a way no other series has ever been treated, very odd to me
