We will know how "real" the ceasefire is only after the prisoners are exchanged on Saturday-Sunday and whether or not the first phase is immediately violated by the Israelis like last time.

Bray is a historian at Rutgers who received death threats after landing on Turning Points USA's Professor Watchlist. As a result, he announced he was moving to Europe. And then this happened.

This kind of harassment and abuse of scholars is Charlie Kirk's legacy and it's only getting worse.

“Someone” cancelled my family’s flight out of the country at the last second.

We got our boarding passes. We checked our bags. Went through security. Then at our gate our reservation ‘disappeared.’

Yes! Yes yes yes. Half the conversations I had at Climate Week were about how shitty & stupid climate funders are, and the central complaint is just this: they don't fund movement infrastructure. It's all one-off, campaign-based. Leaves nothing behind, builds nothing.

The primary reason TPUSA succeeded, thrived, and delivered significant political power is because wealthy ideologues patiently invested a huge sum of money for many years to give it time to establish a market presence.

A smart and correct strategy with huge pay-off!

Chilling insight by @barbarafwalter.com: "Once citizens view their own government’s security forces as an occupying army, violence becomes inevitable. Trump’s team knows this… They’re trying to trigger the very unrest that would justify further crackdowns."

via www.nytimes.com/2025/10/07/o...

Screenshot from a NYT article by Thomas Edsall, quoting Barbara Walter of UC-San Diego: "The quickest way to piss people off is to send soldiers into their neighborhoods especially when there’s no reason for them to be there. It’s inherently provocative, and Trump and his team understand this. Research by the political scientist Robert Pape shows that the single most powerful predictor of suicide terrorism is the presence of foreign troops on local soil. People hate, hate, hate that. They hate the humiliation, the powerlessness, the feeling of being occupied.

"Once citizens begin to view their own government’s security forces as an occupying army, violence becomes inevitable. Trump’s team knows this. In fact, that’s the point. They are not trying to restore order; they’re trying to trigger the very unrest that would justify further crackdowns. In the end, violence serves their ultimate end: They want to create the illusion of disorder so they can tighten control and stay in power indefinitely."

Farfar holdt en jødisk kvinne unna tyskerne ved å ha henne innlagt på Tønsberg sykehus i tre år under en fiktiv diagnose. Han overbeviste dem om at hun ville dø uten kontinuerlig medisinsk tilsyn, og de lot henne bli.
Bare nevner det.

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

Du har betalt ned kjøpesummen, salgsverdien fortsetter å synke, men det betyr bare at du får stadig mindre igjen ved salg og stadig større lån ved kjøp av neste bil.

Det er ikke magi, bare utgifter.

Det er snakk om forskning på barn ved det samme fagmiljøet der vi i juni anslo at 80 % av de mindreårige pasientene opplever at de utsettes for konverteringsterapi.

Anine Hartmann @aninehartmann.bsky.social · Jun 18

På mandag lanserte vi en rapport der vi anslår at 51 % av pasientene som har gjennomgått kjønnsidentitetsutredning ved Oslo universitetssykehus har opplevd det som konverteringsterapi 🚩

Onsdag gikk @pkinorge.bsky.social ut med anbefaling om at de som er berørt bør kontakte politiet 👮

En tråd 🧵

Er du utsatt for konverteringsterapi? 51 % av transkjønnede pasienter ved Oslo universitetssykehus har opplevd kjønnsidentitetsutredningen som konverteringsterapi.

Konverteringsterapi er straffbart.

Politiet oppfordrer alle som kan ha opplevd konverteringsterapi om å ta kontakt med dem.

Konverteringsterapi: Hva er det? «ethvert vedvarende forsøk på å endre en persons seksuelle orientering eller kjønnsidentitet»

Hvordan vet jeg om det gjelder meg? Kontakt politiet om du gjennom utredningen har blitt påvirket til å forsøke å endre, undertrykke eller fornekte sider ved kjønnsidenteten din.
OBS: “Kjønnsutforskende terapi” er en form for konverteringsterapi.
Kontakt politiet med en gang om du blir tilbudt eller presset til samtaler for å «utforske» kjønn.

Hvordan kontakter jeg politiet? Meld fra til Politiets støttesenter for kriminalitetsutsatte på 800 40 008 (man.-fre. 9-15) om at du opplever konverteringsterapi.

De kan veilede deg og sette deg i kontakt med Nasjonalt kompetansemiljø innen hatkriminalitet for eventuell anmeldelse.

Dette er kostnader som FrP, Høyre etc ønsker å pålegge alle familier. En direkte skatt som følge av en samfunnsplanlegging med bilen i sentrum.

Ingenting de foreslår av reduserte avgifter osv vil gjøre noe vesentlig innhugg i disse tallene.

– Vi har en norm som sier noe om hvor mange ansatte det skal være per barn, men den brukes som en maksimumsnorm, ikke en minimumsnorm. Da får de som er på jobb kun gjort det som er nødvendig å gjøre.
