Priztker: if federal agents fired upon journalists and protesters, when unprovoked, what would we call it?  I don't think we'd have any trouble calling it what it is. Authoritarianism.  So let's not pretend it's something else when it happens in our American cities.

High protein feels like the low fat of the ‘90s:

Oh no. Anyway,

ca serait sympathique que la gauche qui a accès aux plateau télé en parle histoire que les gens soit au courant et pas les gens qui s'intéressent a leur droits et a la politique comme nous je parle de ce genre de personnes parce que ce genre de loi compte sur le fait qu'on en parle pas

An incredibly important election in a tiny country just went the right way. Moldova has resisted a huge Russian disinformation campaign and will not become a Russian puppet state.

Hmm. So in addition to the privacy issues of having what minors enter into AI get reviewed by strangers (who don't seem to have any qualifications listed), this relies on minors verifying that they're minors. 25 yrs working w/ teens & teens suggests this won't happen.

1. More Americans work at the Cheesecake Factory than in the entire coal industry, and that won't change. It's because of automation, not snooty libs. 2. Coal energy is now more expensive than wind and solar. 3. So this means: higher energy prices, more pollution, no jobs benefit. Genius!

Same playbook that the Chinese Communist Party has been using to disrupt any constructive academic discussion of its human rights abuses on American campuses: sending provocateurs with party or military backgrounds to disrupt class or event proceedings and recording the faces of every attendee.

why pay an expert writer when you can instead get classrooms of children to write random words then bring in the expert writer to delete every word she wouldn't have written? it's the perfect system. all for the low, low price of literally more money to fund its current promises than exists on earth

Interesting to note that the coal industry in the U.S. employs just a tad over 40,000 people, according to the BLS. The same source tells us that 64,000 people work at wineries.

on the one hand, sure on the other, journalists still happily use a social media website owned by an overt white supremacist Ellison and friends also have historic levels of money to burn at a loss to create a new era propaganda machine including CNN/Fox/CBS/TikTok/Bari Weiss/Substack/etc.

what no they don't if you're TDY during a shutdown you just call up the CTO and book travel on your card to immediately return home, you don't necessarily even have to screw around with DTS and an AO And that's setting aside that they'll all already have return travel booked

Today, Ukraine commemorates the Babyn Yar massacre - one of WWII’s darkest chapters. In Sept 1941, Nazis executed tens of thousands, mainly Kyiv’s Jews, along with Roma, POWs, and civilians. Babyn Yar stands as a symbol of Holocaust horrors. We remember to prevent history from repeating.

Ici à Lyon, là à Brest, Paris, Nancy, Grenoble, Toulouse, Metz... En moins d'un mois. Et ça fait un moment que ça dure. La complaisance du pouvoir avec la fange raciste se mesure à la fois avec son action (lois immigration, propos dégueulasses, actions vs. antifa, etc.) et avec son inaction criante.

1/ Shares in Moderna and BioNTech have imploded since their 2021 peaks, shaving billions of dollars from their founders’ fortunes. Growing anti-vax hysteria and RFK Jr.’s FDA will likely make the situation even worse. Read at @forbes.com www.forbes.com/sites/giacom...

Congrats to team Europe for winning the Ryder Cup. Historic and well deserved. Our fans were disgraceful. An embarrassment to the US team and the game of golf. No class, dignity or grace…just like their cult leader in the White House.

Faudra que les tenants de "la Russie est menacée c'est pour ça" m'expliquent en quoi son ingérence en Moldavie, non voisine d'elle, non membre de l'OTAN, répondrait à un danger.
