New: I spoke with a Colombian asylum seeker who was the victim of a ‘Kavanaugh stop’ about what it was like to be racially profiled, abducted in front his family and held in ICE detention hours from home for more than a month—despite doing everything “the right way.” This is Nick’s story.

Something interesting you might not have realized: a number of words in English are NOUNS when you stress the FIRST syllable, but VERBS when you stress the SECOND syllable. "Your CONduct is better when you conDUCT yourself appropriately.” 🧵⬇️

DANISH PARLIAMENT MEMBER: “🇺🇸 had 30 bases on Greenland, why did you leave? You can resume that tomorrow without attacking a NATO ally… the rationale lacks factual foundation and doesn’t stand any logic testing.” (Unless the point is to hurt us and end NATO, a Putin/Xi goal)

No Democrat response . No statement about freedom of speech Multiple think tanks and dissections of why they need to abandon diversity As opposed to something on how “American” it is to band together to choose to speak out Because they don’t actually agree

“Dominant predator force” is such a weak man trying to hype himself up line. I’ll quoth the great warrior poets Geto Boys with their maxim: “Real gangsters don’t flex nuts because real gangsters know they got ‘em.”

This is why it annoys me when people try to make it seem as if this is how things have always been. There was a time when greater literacy and reading as a part of everyday life for people of every class was a national mission. Then it changed drastically and now we’re here.

21 years ago a single submarine of Swedish Navy sneaked past the extensive anti-submarine shields and sank air craft carrier USS Ronald Reagan in an exercise. Sweden has since refined the stealth properties of the Gotland-class submarines and a newer class is under construction.

Really 'Feeling This' dub streak, let's keep it rolling (exciting game, didn't want to blink and risk missing a second of it...)

Dionne Foster gets it! All of this is good. But especially “build the damn trains.” The Sound Transit board doesn’t understand. Voters aren’t mad at cost overruns. They’re mad at construction delays. We want our trains to Ballard and West Seattle!

It's so quaint how in the 90s we worried that kids were gonna get fucked up by tamagotchis and now they're just giving every kid a free robot that generates child porn and tells you how to commit suicide

Around 45,000 homes remain without power in Berlin after an attack on a power station sparked a fire, according to Reuters. As temperatures plummet as low as 14°F, CNN's senior international correspondent Fred Pleitgen explains how he is keeping his house warm.

I'm watching multiple rounds of heavy showers over the next couple days (Wed/Thur). With cold air aloft and temps in the mid 30s-low 40s, it's possible to have BRIEF wintry precip in the lowlands. Thunder, heavy rain/hail, and strong winds are all possible too. Stay tuned! #wawx

THE CURSE HAS BEEN BROKEN!! KRAKEN WIN FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THEIR ALT JERSEY!! #SeaKraken

BERKLY!!!!

1/ This guy has an SS tattoo on his neck, but that aside: CA just passed a law stating that federal immigration agents wearing masks (except medical) lose qualified immunity, meaning they can be sued. And I gotta think that the sedition hunting is going to make life very uncomfortable for many.

Jasmine Crockett is cool as hell

No kidding.

If you don’t want Jasmine Crockett to be a senator, don’t vote for her. But we saw y’all blowing her up—until she decides to run for higher office.

The U.S. is pressing Venezuela to partner exclusively with Washington on oil and to sever ties with China, Russia, Cuba and Iran. -ABC News

Heeeeyyyyy.

This is insane. If *Plato*’s writings are considered too “problematic” to teach for conservatives, then they no longer deserve the label “conservative.” Just call them what they are: anti-intellectual bigots who have no interest in allowing the teaching of any thought, much less critical thinking.

This is likely the reason for the temporary US force buildup to the UK right now.

call your reps snd tell them to support this reps.fyi

😩satisfying.

C’mon, it’s not like the Republicans have an incredibly slim majority in both houses, multiple Republicans already defecting, & an incredibly unpopular invasion >65% disapproval during an election year with dozens of vulnerable Republican incumbents or anything /s Schumer’s complacency is a choice.

Not just around the sun, no, around the whole solar system. .......

Uhhhhhh .... huuuhhh.

What's funny here is even normies know exactly what they saw on J6. Trump is specifically changing this story in places normal humans don't bother to look while he rewrites history. No ordinary taxpayer is logging on to Whitehouse dot gov to see what he's doing and Jabba knows it

According to the German news magazine Der Spiegel & repeated here by Le Monde, the Trump administration has threatened to impose sanctions on the French judges handling the domestic criminal case against Marine Le Pen. I’m not outraged; I’m enjoying imagining EU sanctions on Sam Alito.

BREAKING: UK and France sign formal declaration of intent to put boots on ground in Ukraine in event of peace deal with Russia. They would "operate on Ukrainian soil, securing Ukraine’s skies and seas and building an armed forces fit for the future".

BY THE WAY it can be super nice to have a big bag of cheese powder in your pantry. Box-style mac n cheese with any pasta you have on hand! Add some to bread dough for yummy cheesy bread! Sprinkle it on popcorn! You just can't lose.

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from. Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

I don’t often say this about a radio network, but this NPR video is incredibly powerful and intense.

He's just so GROSS. And petty.

This is humiliatingly weak and pathetic. The dominant national ethos has become one of weak insecurity. It’s like if Frank Burns was a white nationalist.

Haaaaaahahaha

"All right," said the hacker. "I'm in." "You hacked the Gibson?" "No. God no. But I got my deck onto the hotel wifi."

- Capitalism was already being practised in 18th century India before the British and French intervened - Democracy was a dirty word in the 1700s and 1800s - The Spartans had two simultaneous co-kings, in a system called Diarchy - The Catholic Church was a large supporter of early modern science

- The Vikings, Aztecs, Tudors, Byzantines never used those names for themselves - There was no such thing as Ancient Greece as we understand it - The great poet Homer likely never existed - Celebrity culture was already flourishing in the 1700s - Suits of armour were not too heavy to move in

I’ve got loads! - Medieval people washed regularly, drank water, and didn’t have rotten teeth - WW1 did not end in 1918 - Queen Victoria was a horndog - Ancient Egyptians invented Egyptology by excavating their own ancient monuments - We know more about Shakespeare than many other famous Tudors

If the DEA had killed 80 innocent Americans in the course of apprehending one drug dealer, there would be riots. But we are so ghoulishly indifferent to the lives and humanity of people abroad that it's barely even part of the conversation.

Huh.
