21 y/o activist injured by ICE: I will be blind for life. I have fractures in my skull that they can't fix. I can't sneeze or cough because it's dangerous to. I had shards of metal, glass, and plastic behind my eye and in my skull.

So, very different schooling DOES produce significant differences in IQ after all. IQ is not just some inborn "merit."
And that means denying kids the best possible education is a crime that _the kids_ will pay for lifelong, not the perpetrators.

According to a new report, defense contractors like Lockheed Martin, Boeing, and Raytheon have raked in over HALF of Pentagon spending since 2020.
Trump's new $1 trillion annual DoD budget will pad their pockets even further as he cuts the social safety net.

Mamdani is not allowed to get very high SAT scores. And Rufo is allowed to either publicly lie or publicly misunderstand how SAT scoring works.
So Rufo's article is based on the claim that Mamdani got 2140, an "89th percentile" score, below the median for acceptance to Columbia.
2140 out of 2400 is 89%.
That's not how SAT percentiles work.
A 2140 is a 97% percentile score for that year.
This man runs a college in my hometown.

Chris Rufo and the NY Post have a new and shocking Mamdani BOMBSHELL:
His SAT scores were AVERAGE among admitted students!!!!!!!
This is definitely the sort of thing you report when a candidate has skeletons in the closet.

It is obscene to give tax breaks to the top 1% by throwing more than 16 million people off health care, cutting nutrition for hungry kids and making it harder for working class young people to go to college.
That is exactly what Trump's budget reconciliation bill does.

Group-think is the worse form of government. If the leader doesn’t think he or she is ever wrong, its negatives are exponentially increased. God help those who are blind to this!
Over the weekend, Senator Thom Tillis — who opposes Trump’s megabill — announced he won’t run for reelection in 2026.
It signals just how tough it is to stand apart in Trump’s GOP, as Dasha Burns and Jack Blanchard explain on #playbookpod: ow.ly/JohB50WicJG

If ICE is targeting illegal immigrants who are drug dealers , murders , sex offenders, & terrorists why is ICE targeting work places? These people are only guilty of wanting a better life, liberty, & pursuing happiness.
