The lawyer for the Venezuelan man shot by ICE yesterday says he was discharged from the hospital and transferred to ICE detention while the bullet was still inside of him, and that in Pearsall he's not received any pain meds and was forced to sleep on the floor.

I’d highly recommend that nobody download this app. At best, it’s unfiltered propaganda. At worst, it’s spyware.

Not only did I meet Robert Kraft, I worked for him. His kid Jonathan asked me to “remove the black music” from my gameday playlist in ‘94 & I refused so they fired me. I was the cheerleader director at the time.  I sued them for wrongful termination and won. So yes, I know that motherfucker.

Bemused to find myself in a world in which the raunchy gravel-throated comedian Ron White is better-versed on the facts and more skilled at political communication than any of the talking heads paid to inform the American public.
Team Talarico@teamtalaricohq.bsky.social · 5d agoRon White: Eight of Ken Paxton’s assistants turned him into the FBI for fraud... They sued and won $6 million. Guess who paid that $6 million? You and me paid the $6 million for his bribery. His own party impeached him. He’s a criminal.
In Alligator Alcatraz, detainees were forced into small outdoor cages for hours at a time. In Camp East Montana, detainees report beatings from guards and denial of medical care. In Delaney Hall, detainees report unsafe drinking water and retaliatory abuse for speaking up. Unimaginable cruelty.

Samuel Alito flew flags used by insurrectionists. Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election. Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the Jan 6 plot. Both ruled in favor of Trump's mail-in ballot sabotage. I don't think I'll ever get over this.

A bunch of Israeli politicians said “we will destroy Gaza” and then the IDF blew up the hospitals and shot starving people with snipers and killed everybody in the NICU so all the preemies died but prominent people will still argue with you under their own names about whether or not that’s genocide

Idea: A little kid version of Clue where they aren't trying to find the murderer, but the person who farted. It's a real ... Who Dealt it? Brought to you by my 3.5 year old toddler asking "who farted?"whenever she walks into a room.
I see a lot of ppl on multiple platforms trying to combat the idea of "pheromone maxxing" with the argument that , "women don't like that" or "women like ___." And this is where we have come to a misunderstanding. These boys don't care about a woman's opinion. The entire manosphere rests on
