Whenever one of these freaks goes off on a tangent about their trans conspiracy of the day, the proper response -- from an interviewer or anyone else -- is "well, it seems like you're having some sort of mental breakdown here, so we'll wrap it up"

Royce White is now ranting about "transgender sex dolls" during a forum that is supposed to be about agricultural issues. This guy is a serious Republican in Minnesota who had the party's nomination for a Senate seat two years ago. Insanity.

Wildfires don’t recognize borders, and neither does compassion!🇨🇦🇲🇽 Thank you to the courageous firefighters from Mexico who have traveled far from home to help protect British Columbia! Your bravery, sacrifice & solidarity will never be forgotten!❤️🔥 #BCWildfires #ThankYou #Canada #Mexico #SheShed

Call me crazy, but if a Democratic president had 350 accounts closed by their bank for money laundering it’d be more than a blip in the media

Even if involved in narcotrafficking, this would be illegal. Due process.

CNN@cnn.com · 2d ago

The US military’s strikes on alleged drug boats have likely illegally killed “individuals who are not involved in narcotrafficking,” Sen. Tim Kaine told the White House, following “a careful review” of classified information he has seen so far.

industry is absolutely reviled and its turning to its closers, kyrsten sinema and eric adams

A video taken Saturday shows former NYC Mayor Eric Adams in sales pitch mode in Wisconsin Rapids, as he's heckled by residents opposed to the data center he's trying to sell them on. "My name is Eric Adams," he begins, as the boos begin to rain down. "You belong in prison!" one attendee shouts.

The Secretary of Health and Human Services is pathologically lying, gaslighting psychopath.

RFK: "You are saying nonsense." Bash: "I am not saying nonsense, excuse me?…This is not productive. " RFK: "You're talking nonsense…You were scaring people." Bash: "Why are you saying that?" RFK: "Because that was the job of CNN." Bash: "Okay, stop."

Emancipation Day in Canada. The date marks Aug. 1, 1834, when slavery was abolished in the British colonies, including Canada.

A reminder that the orange felon had his disgusting motorcade drive directly over the entirety of the Reflecting Pool after he began destroying it, he’s the one who needs to be charged with vandalism and destruction of govt property. He should be in jail, not in the White House.

I remember when Bill Clinton met with the Attorney General for three minutes when Hillary was being investigated for mishandling classified information, and the republicans cried bloody murder. Now, the AG nominee is covering for pedophiles and that seems okay. WHAT THE FUCK?

Obama always chooses his words carefully.

As a reminder, our big dumb president is waging a big dumb vendetta over windmills because Scotland put some turbines near one of his big dumb golf courses more than a decade ago.

How Trump's loathing for wind turbines started with a Scottish court battle

The US president is a vocal critic of wind energy - and it's a loathing which began in Aberdeenshire.

Trump: "Any time you see windmills, you see a failing country"

This is deplorable, and there’s no reason for it. Except racism.

Upwards of 200,00 people may have lost their jobs today; or will in the upcoming days. There is a palpable sense of fear among the Haitian community right now. They need your support.

BREAKING: In 2019, SDNY prosecutors persuaded New Mexico’s AG to shut down his Epstein investigation by promising to share evidence of state crimes. Two weeks ago, SDNY U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton broke that promise. Today, he was confirmed as Director of National Intelligence.

A woman’s Global Entry was revoked days after she legally observed ICE agents. ICE agents showed up to a polling place to demand a worker remove an anti-ICE post. A man was sentenced to 30 years in prison for moving a box of left-wing magazines. Trump’s crackdown on dissent is here. Be warned.

Do not let an agent cross your thresholds with a warrant signed by a judge (They have pretend warrants to intimidate you) Your businesses Your homes Any business that does allow them in without a warrant needs to be cancelled immediately

Marc Rosenblum, executive director of DHS' statistics dept, is out. And he couldn't be happier about it: "Between the war on immigrants, the war on feds, and the war on facts (not to mention the crazy war in Iran & the brazen corruption), I just need a change" 1/2 www.linkedin.com/in/marc-rose...

DHS Official Resigns, Citing ‘War on Immigrants’

The outgoing executive director of the Office of Homeland Security Statistics is one of very few federal officials to speak out against the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown.

Your 'doom quote' for today: "I don't think we're yet evolved to the point where we're clever enough to handle as complex a situation as climate change. The inertia of humans is so huge that you can't really do anything meaningful." www.theguardian.com/science/2010...

James Lovelock: Humans are too stupid to prevent climate change

In his first in-depth interview since the theft of UEA emails, the scientist blames inertia and democracy for lack of action

It is genuinely bizarre that we’ve become acclimatized to right wingers throwing a tantrum every time a black person (particularly a black woman) is cast in something, but are also supposed to pretend that this is not racism but related to some other substantive concern.

“.. 95 vessels right now are broadcasting crew/ownership instead of a port — ‘All Chinese Crew,’ ‘Armed Guards O/B,’ ‘China Crew & Owner’ — the maritime version of hands up, don't shoot. Nearly all of them: bunched in the Red Sea & Gulf of Aden.” @bloomberg.com

Well, where is he? If he's dead, we should know this.

Money Wise: Trump made at least $2.2 billion in income last year. Much of that money came from his supporters investing in his businesses. Their fortunes didn’t fare as well. Trump supporters are down an estimated $7 billion after investing in Trump's business ventures. #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed
