The U.S. is blocking 7,000 shipping containers bought directly by Cuba. They are preventing food, medicine, equipment for water and electricity from getting to Cuba. This is collective punishment. This is genocidal.

Imagine spending your one wild & precious life coming up with psychotic new ways to be evil & punitive to people who wish to initiate or improve their skills at creating/offering beauty, healing, comfort, solace, connection, alternative worlds, education, & all else encompassed by these disciplines

President Trump is banning students majoring in degrees that don’t make enough money from taking out college loans. Degrees for social work, art, religious studies, teaching aides, and music will be hit the hardest. trib.al/aaAEu6v

I dunno but it should probably be a bigger deal that the White House announced it wants to slap a 100% tariff on drug imports at the same time it is eliminating Medicare drug subsidies. And we’re talking about critical life-saving drugs like insulin, blood thinners, antibiotics, and heart meds.

India supplies approximately 50% of all U.S. generic drugs, and these face the highest tariff rates: • Antibiotics: Penicillin, amoxicillin • Cardiovascular medications: Generic versions of cholesterol drugs, blood thinners • Diabetes medications: Metformin, insulin analogs • Pain relievers: Ibuprofen, acetaminophen 2. China-Dependent Active Ingredients China supplies active ingredients for: • >95% of ibuprofen and acetaminophen • ~45% of penicillin • Many other commonly used medications' base components

TikTok has incredible moderation team. Our InfoWars video about Multiple Horse Theory — the idea that there are many horses in the world and not just one — has been fully deemed misinformation and lost the formal appeals process. Confirmed by Larry Ellison: There is only one horse on Earth.

Maybe it's worth asking UCSF's pediatrics department how they feel about Prasad's gross misconduct, which will inevitably contribute to more unvaccinated children dying of COVID-19. You can find their e-mails here: pediatrics.ucsf.edu/1619801/gene...

This country's institutions are such a joke. Real blackpilling. This guy fucking leaks that the covid vaccine DIRECTLY killed 10 kids, doesn't follow up in any way and then quits his job and gets gifted his prestigious job right back.

the written record of antiquity, for reasons I hope are obvious, over represents the blinkered moral perspectives of that day's most powerful people. you should take the care with generalizing from their opinions that you'd want a foreigner to take if a tech CEO was asked about your country's morals

In new filings, former FBI Director James Comey seeks disclosure of grand jury transcripts in the "8647" seashells case. Among other things, the motion cites Kash Patel's gaffe at a public press conference, where he said the grand jury was told that Comey apologized for the "8647" post.

a press release announcing the indictment, FBI Director Kash Patel stated "James Comey disgracefully encouraged a threat on President Trump's life and posted it on Instagram for the world to see," DOJ, Federal Grand Jury Indicts Former FBI Director James Comey for Threats to Harm President Trump (Apr. 28, 2026), https://perma.cc/T7PE-KSUM (emphasis added), a theory that is legally distinct from and inconsistent with the "true threat" charges alleged in the indictment. See infra at 12-14; 17-18. The following day, Director Patel appeared alongside Acting Attorney General Blanche and U.S. Attorney Boyle at a press conference announcing the indictment. DOJ, Acting AG Blanche Announces Federal Grand Jury Indicts Former FBI Director for Threats to Harm POTUS (YouTube, Apr. 29, 2026), https://bit.ly/3TdL85D. Director Patel stated that after making the seashells post, Mr. Comey issued an "apology" and that the grand jury was told that "James Comey allegedly threatened the life of the President of the United States, and as you all now know, shortly after posting that threat he deleted that threat and then issued an apology." Id. at 05:33-05:48. The word "apology" wrongdoing? and thus the grand jury appears to have been led to believe that Mr. Comey made an admission of wrongdoing. Mr. Comey did not. He withdrew his earlier post in an abundance of caution and clarified that it was not intended to call for violence.

In this clip, Kash Patel says the grand jury heard evidence that Comey deleted the '8647' post and apologized. Neither fact appears in the indictment. Hmm. Did the FBI director just disclose evidence presented before a grand jury?

I was a 911 dispatcher for a decade. To really understand how terrible an idea it is to have AI answer 911 calls, I'll present you with a single real-life call: Upon answer, the caller calmly began ordering a pizza. Large, pepperoni. Side order of chicken wings. To be delivered promptly.

This is a good time to learn about how the state uses grand juries to collect information with which to attack social movements and dissent in general. Here, you can read about how three people successfully stood up to grand jury indictments. crimethinc.com/resistgrandj...

I just saw a meme that said “get in losers, we’re reclaiming the emdash”. People. PEOPLE. Where are your STANDARDS? It CLEARLY should be “get in, losers — we’re reclaiming the em dash.”

My pre-write turned out to be 70% a. CDC's comms have been wildly irresponsible; b. If I couldn't prove lettuce is not from Taylor Farms, I wouldn't eat it; c. Taylor Farms gave MAGA Inc. $1M USD less than a week after FDA postponed food traceability rules. www.patreon.com/mattbc/posts...
