Zendaya says her parents cussed her out in fifth grade not for bullying a classmate, but for standing by as a silent bystander:
"When a girl in my fifth grade class was getting bullied, I was present but did not participate or say anything."
"My parents called me into my dad's school office and cussed me out, explaining that being a silent bystander is just as wrong as participating."
"That lesson on standing up for others stayed with me for life."

An ICE officer is trained for 71 days. It takes 150 days to become a certified pet stylist at Petco. One grooms dogs… the other carry’s guns. This is what’s wrong with our country.
🚨BREAKING: Tom Homan says if you don’t want to be killed by ICE agents, you should just comply…. So here is an example of what he wants you to comply with.
In this video, a woman noticed vehicles in a parking lot that she believed could be ICE vehicles… So, she started filming.
The people noticed she was filming, and drove past her.
She was alone, so she decided to leave.
Then, they started followed her.
But here’s the thing… she wasn’t even 100% sure they were ICE agents.
They were in unmarked vehicles, and they weren’t using emergency lights.
As she was driving down the street, being followed by these unmarked cars, one of the vehicles pulls up beside her, cuts her off, and the cars box her in.
She had nowhere to go without hitting the curb, or hitting the vehicle that had just cut her off.
She honked, but the vehicle just sat there.
Eventually it moved, and the vehicles drove away.
Now, imagine being a woman, alone in your car.
A group of cars, you cannot clearly identify as law enforcement, start following you.
They don’t turn on emergency lights. They don’t clearly identify themselves. And one of them cuts you off and blocking your vehicle from being able to drive away.
What are you supposed to think is happening?
Because from your perspective, it looks like you are being kidnapped by random people.
And that is the terrifying part of what ICE is doing.
They are creating situations where people have no idea whether the people surrounding them are legitimate law enforcement officers, or strangers attempting to abduct, or rob them.
And Tom Homan’s answer to being kidnapped, or robbed, is…
“Just comply.”
Don’t try to drive away. Don’t defend yourself. Don’t try to escape.
Just calmly allow unidentified people, in unmarked vehicles, to follow you, box you in, and potentially kidnap or rob you…
Because if they happen to be ICE agents, and you react like a normal person who believes they are being kidnapped, you could be assaulted, detained, or even shot.
Do you understand how dangerous and insane that is?!?
“Just comply” means women are being told to surrender to potential kidnappers, and hope they turn out to be government agents.
And if they don’t?
Tom Homan says it’s their fault for not complying.
The Pentagon has identified 30-year-old Sgt. Michael Emmanuel Swinton of North Carolina as another service member killed in the Iran War.
He was a father and husband with two children.
Andrew Tate was found with 19 child abuse images and extreme porn, in addition to facing multiple rape allegations after his arrest.
The self-proclaimed "alpha male" influencer and his brother, Tristan Tate, could face 20 to 25 years in prison if they are extradited to the UK.
Hey MAGA Texans.
Let me reintroduce you to Adam Hoffman. He raped his son’s best friend from the age of six years old to nine years old. For three years this man raped a little boy.
Paxton made sure his buddy only got a 60 day sentence. Oh wait it gets better, he didn't even serve the full sixty days.
Wait wait, it's gets even better. He doesn't have to register as a sex offender and his record has been wiped clean.
MAGA maniacs want women to go to prison for miscarriages but are cool with pedophiles going free.
Ken Paxton is a disgusting criminal, that's why Trump endorsed him.
Make sure you have a plan to vote. @jamestalarico is what Texas needs. Not more of the Epstein Class.

A$AP Rocky says a substitute teacher spent her own money to take him to see Harry Potter when he was living in a shelter. He's never forgotten her kindness.
A$AP Rocky: "She was like, 'Honey, no. I'm a substitute teacher. I can't even make ends meet right now.'"
A$AP Rocky: "I said, 'So why would you take your little bit of money to take me to the movie theater?' She said, 'Because it just feels great to do something like that.'"
Jimmy Fallon: "And did you ever see her again?"
A$AP Rocky: "I don't even know the lady's name, but God bless you. Thank you so much."
Richard Gere: “Trump uses the same words that Hitler did. Calls them vermin. They’re not vermin. These are human beings. I’ve met them. He’s never met a refugee or a migrant. These are human beings like us who are usually running from a fire of one kind or another”
I was at my aunt’s house this morning. We were all having breakfast together when my uncle turned to his 15 y old daughter and said, “You should go change and put on something less revealing. My friends are coming over later, you know how it is.”.........I looked at him and said, “If your kids can’t wear shorts around some old men, then those men shouldn’t be allowed in your house.” Silence at the table.
TROPICAL UPDATE: Here's the latest GRAF model for the area pinned with a 20% chance of tropical development. The model historically is more aggressive / stronger than others, but does highlight the development of a low in the Gulf by the weekend. Regardless of development, it will help to bump up rain chances for Florida the next several days.
