If you're a cis person insisting that the prospect of trans children playing youth sports is not only "a problem" but in fact one of the biggest problems we currently face as a nation, I'd be happy to introduce you to literally a million other things that should be worrying you more.

Some European Union officials are describing the situation that occurred in Ceuta as a “hybrid attack on on the sovereignty of an EU member state” and a “a destabilization operation.” Here are a couple of such statements from members of the European Parliament:

Javi López @javilopezEU X.com • Translated from Spanish by Grok What is happening in Ceuta is not just a migration crisis. It is a hybrid attack on the sovereignty of an EU member state. What is at stake in Ceuta today, tomorrow could be at stake on any European border. Very astute @polmorillas in @el_pais elpais.com/opinion/2026-0.. Rate this translation: I La geopolítica se juega en la crisis de Ceuta | Tribuna From elpais.comFrançois Kalfon @francoiskalfon X.com • Translated from French by Grok #Ceuta From the very beginning of this crisis, I said 1) that this affair did not stem from a spontaneous migratory movement but from a destabilization operation deliberately organized by a government 2) That no country or continent can obviously absorb such a population movement 3) that the Spanish government had to return the victims of this operation to those who had organized it. While, obviously, the far right was howling, and European governments more sensitive to buzz than to good governance were unilaterally announcing the suspension of Schengen (even though, in Ceuta, those agreements do not apply).At this very moment, as we speak, as we had announced, most of these poor people have gone back home. And Pedro Sanchez's honor is restored because he bears no responsibility for this situation. One reality remains: corrupt governments that use the very real misery of their populations as a means of pressure against Europe and as a safety valve for their own incompetence; We must therefore act with calm, with humanity of course, but without underestimating the firmness necessary toward those who deliberately test our capacity to react.

The claim “RFK Jr. does not fuck chickens” is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that RFK Jr. fucks chickens.

KEY POINTS • The claim 'vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism.

Iran launched several attacks at multiple targets in different countries overnight. Someone should tell them their military is completely obliterated so they stop doing this.
