My friend told me her 10 yo daughter is growing out her hair after a teacher at school barred her from entering the girl’s bathroom last year because of her short hair. Can you believe this shit? And the school never apologized for this act of bullying.

This is called Jewsplaning. And Senator. You can't be bothered to wear a suit to the State of the Union or any other formal occasion, but you wore a suit to be interviewed by Jon Stewart? Who is wearing a t-shirt? Dude. You are such a loser.

John Fetterman, who isn't Jewish, tells Jon Stewart, who is Jewish, that politicians who are critical of Netanyahu's Israel are "turn[ing] their back to the Jewish community." Stewart objects to that conflation. WEEKLY SHOW. The photos show Jon Stewart in a split screen interviewing Senator Fetterman who is, inexplicably wearing a suit for once. Apparently he couldn't read the room.

Republican Senators are voting to confirm Trump’s lawyer to be AG when it just came out that Capital One shut down Trump’s accounts under suspicion of money laundering and Trump wants exemption from being investigated for tax fraud. THESE PEOPLE ARE CRIMINALS.

Girl: "Grandpa, what did you do when Donald Trump was president?" Grandpa: "Well, sweetie, I wore a MAGA hat, shared anti-trans memes on social media, pretended to have seizures in reaction to a vaccine, and reported my neighbor's babysitter to ICE." Girl: *pulls plug*

Reminding my American friends to check to make sure they're registered to vote way before November. Even if you think you are - doublecheck just to make sure you don't fall pray to shennanigans.

In case you don't recall, "Border Tsar" Tom Homan took a bribe from someone he didn't know was an FBI agent and didn't get indicted or go to prison. The charges were dropped. Why? Because he's Trump's buddy. Where did the $50K go? Into Homan's bank account presumably.

Whitehouse: "The last Q I'm left with is what's left of this committee? What's left when we don't demand straight answers? How many times has this DOJ been asked what became of the $50k the FBI reported it handed to Homan? ... our Republican colleagues see no evil, hear no evil, and speak no evil"

The whole point of the Bill of Rights is to protect the only true minority - the individual. It limits the governments power to harm the individual. The whole constitution is designed to limit the governments power.

A few days ago, the Zionist enemy allowed a truckload of medicine for kidney patients in Gaza to enter, specifically the "Dialysate" solution used in dialysis centers and peritoneal dialysis machines to purify the blood of toxins. At that time, all international media outlets documented the extent

“We should return to an older and more accurate name for the Civil War: the Slaveholders’ Rebellion. If a country unquestioningly adopts language that obscures its bloodiest crimes to absolve their worst perpetrators, how can we expect successive generations to remember the new assaults on democracy
