This is something most Jews understand, and most non-Jews don’t understand Jews understand.

When the far-right likes Israel, it’s a danger to Jews. When the far-right dislikes Israel, it’s a danger to Jews.

Liking or disliking Israel makes zero difference to the far-right being a danger to Jews.
Germany’s rising far-right AfD is split over Israel. Jews call party ‘a danger’ either way

Just a reminder that what he's talking about is the private information about every American and business, and there are laws against this access. "Transform the way the government works" by doing what? Targeting opponents? Microtargeting political ads so Republicans never lose?
Johnson: "Elon's cracked the code. He's now inside these agencies. He's created these algorithms that are constantly crawling through the data & as he told me in his office, data doesn't lie. We're gonna be able to get the information. We're gonna be able to transform the way federal govt works."

Fucking shameful United States. Shameful. You too Israel. Shameful.👇
Ukraine resolution at the UN called Russia an aggressor and demands the full withdrawal of Russian forces from Ukraine’s internationally recognized borders.

The United States, Israel, and Russia voted against it.

Every free democratic country around the globe voted in favour. #EndImpunity

This is fucking fire but also, amazingly, the judge is doing her damned best to establishing on the record that they don’t have a rational basis for their actions.

Get your free tests ASAP!
Washington Post is reporting that the US Gov't program to send free COVID tests to households will be shut down tonight, and the remaining tests destroyed. If you haven't already ordered yours in the latest batch (autumn 2024's) it's super quick & easy, price $0.00

Stopping FARA is opening the door to massive corruption
AG Bondi, day 1:
-- disbands the Foreign Influence Task Force
-- stops FARA (foreign govt lobbyist registration) enforcement except when actual espionage suspected
-- Stops FCPA (bribing foreign govts) enforcement unless to further drugs or terrorism

You know that puppet show schtick where the host is asking where a character is, and that character keeps popping up behind him, and all the children scream and point but the host never sees it?

I didn't think living through a coup would be like that.

Not an original theory.

It is not that script writers don't trust the audience. It is that they are writing for people who are only half watching.

It is the film equivalent of club music.

"Of those, some say the yellow bar is hardly noticeable, while others say it’s too distracting to keep."

I wonder if we have found a test for people with a 4th cone type (The cone that directly detects the color yellow)
in their eyes.
