okay i'm so tired of having to explain this every time the chiefs play in front of a national audience. yes, all the chiefs players are married to each other. no, they DO NOT all have sex with each other at halftime. they're more professional than that, and there's a lot more to marriage than that

Just FYI, administrative warrants (like the ones used by ICE) are not judicial warrants (used by cops, signed by a judge).
You do NOT legally have to open the door for an ICE officer with an administrative warrant *no matter what the ICE officer says.*

Let's be clear, if liberals genuinely thought anti-genocide people were essential to Harris winning they'd be mad at Harris (and themselves) for alienating those voters.
Instead the vitriol and blame being heaped on anti-genocide people is due to liberals wanting to de-legitimise opposing genocide.

For years the debate in front of me was "Democrats are feckless weak compromising losers without principles or imagination, interested only in their own paychecks and the donor class" versus "Democrats are the only thing between us and the abyss" and I am deeply concerned everyone was right.

Musk's transphobia really hits different when you realize that he ordered all boys via IVF.

In ancient Egypt, people drank low alcohol beer and wine to avoid the parasites in "raw water." The old graves, which I excavate, are full of children who died from diseases we now can vaccinate against. You are ghouls for promoting this garbage.
Untreated water enthusiasts swear by natural springs, or “raw water.” Many of them are part of the so-called health freedom movement, which opposes vaccine mandates, pasteurized milk and other government public health interventions.
