Moopsy's

It's a family restaurant chain with exclusively bone marrow based dishes and costumed mascots of Moopsies roaming around. On Saturdays we release a wild Moopsy and first person to find it (and keep their skeleton) gets a t-shirt.

In less than a week, I will be sworn in as the next mayor of New York City. It was only possible because of the more than 100,000 people who volunteered on our campaign. Here’s a story about one of them, my mother.

Here’s something so blatantly obvious that it seems stupid to even have to say it out loud.

And yet apparently it’s necessary to say in Trump’s USA.

Filming a legal arrest, let alone the many illegal and anonymous arrests performed by ICE, is NOT DOMESTIC TERRORISM.

Claiming it is, is fascist.
If ICE can threaten arrest for filming, then journalists, watchdogs, and protesters can all be silenced the same way. You don’t have freedom of the press if recording police is treated as terrorism.  #holdfast

Neither is fine, this fucking Bill needs to die. And people need to bully and make the lives of ever politician present in this disaster of a meeting miserable. Nothing but a state surveillance tool disguised as wanting protect kids.
says KOSA can be used to censor LGBT and climate related speech if Senate version of the bill is enacted, but that house KOSA is fine.

This is a really good point that I had not run into before: these "creators" have no further insight into their alleged creation than the average audience member and that is why it cannot be called art (besides all the other obvious reasons).

As a conservative college student, it’s my firm religious belief that the correct answer to every question, in this test or any other, is C, and if you don’t give me full credit then you are taking away my freedom of religion and secret police should take you away to protect free speech.

Bari Weiss lied in her memo. She said segment didn't report administration's legal justification (it does in the very first sentence) and didn't say how many detainees had been charged with crimes as opposed to just those who were convicted (it does). www.muellershewrote.com/p/watch-the-...

Among the many issues with Weiss’s memo on the CECOT story, most of the additional info she’s demanding, about the administration’s legal rationales and the prisoners’ criminal histories, was actually covered in this piece that ran earlier this year on—wait for it—“60 Minutes”.

“You have arrived in hell.”

That’s what the CECOT director allegedly told immigrants.

Human Rights Watch said
“Detainees were subjected to constant beatings and other forms of ill-treatment, including some cases of sexual violence”

This is what CBS doesn’t want you to see.
