Your rage against Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion is a result of you recognizing you are not naturally advantaged, your ancestors were successful due to excluding others, and now that you’re losing that privilege, you really don’t have anything to offer the world.

Honestly boycotting the World Cup would be the most effective and probably the least disruptive of all of the options available to Europe. I’m not sure how you can send teams and fans to contribute to a spectacle designed entirely to celebrate a guy trying to invade your territory.

Arnoldo Bazan, a 16-year-old U.S. citizen, was put in a chokehold by ICE agents.

Agents took his phone, which he tracked to a used electronics vending machine near an ICE detention center.

Yes: ICE is stealing and selling people’s things after brutalizing them. There are no words.

Even former members of ICE were horrified by the killing of Renee Nicole Good. “They murdered her, plain and simple. That is all there is to it."

Former members of ICE say recent violence is "by design"
"What has changed is there has been an encouragement from the top to be much more aggressive in enforcement."

This is a pretty severe escalation from CBS, just straight up lying like this.
BREAKING: The ICE agent who fatally shot Renee Good last week in Minneapolis, Jonathan Ross, suffered internal bleeding to the torso following the incident, according to two U.S. officials briefed on his medical condition.

About 45 years ago the right realised they could act like cunts and expect the left to be the bigger person. They also realised enough of their base was dumb, scared or both that they could reverse engineer justifications for any policy. Which is why public opinion has no baring on political policy

Greenland PM Jens-Frederik Nielsen:

"If we have to choose between the US & Denmark here and now, we choose Denmark. We choose NATO. We choose the Kingdom of Denmark. We choose the EU."

"Greenland does not want to be owned by the US. Greenland does not want to be governed by the US" he later added.

This is Minneapolis:

Walk into my neighborhood ACE last night & see the signage on their door notifying fed agents that it’s private property and cannot be used for immigration enforcement. These signs are all over the city.

Walk in & the nearest shelf has goggles & whistles.

What if we form car conga lines to follow them around? They can arrest everyone in one or two cars, but they can’t handle dozens of vehicles packed with low risk protesters following them at safe speeds & distances.
Minneapolis - Border Patrol stops a protester following them, and tells the car it’s their “first and final warning” to quit.

France at the UN Security Council:

"The military operation which led to the capture of Nicolas Maduro runs counter to the principle of peaceful dispute resolution and the principle of non use of force. Violations of the UN Charter... chips away at the very foundation of the international order."

I once had a neighbor steal my paper and lie to me about it.

So I taught another neighbor's dog to steal his by leaving treats in them. He wound up canceling his paper long before it was time.

The lesson: if you're going to insult an autistic person's intelligence, be smarter than them or *move*.

What the KENNEDY Center used to be…

Remember that time Aretha Franklin performed at the 2015 Kennedy Center Honors, paying tribute to Carole King, who co-wrote “You Make Me Feel Like A Natural Woman,” and it brought a tear to Obama’s eye and everyone to their feet? And Carole King’s reaction. Wow.
