🚨 The Utah Republican Party paid a firm $4.3 million to falsify the signatures of dead people.

The election fraud was conducted in an attempt to legalize gerrymandering in Utah.

What Joyce Carol Oates wrote to Elon Musk on Twitter. I am told it rattled him. I love it.
“So curious that such a wealthy man never posts anything that indicates that he enjoys or is even aware of what virtually everyone appreciates – scenes from nature, pet dog or cat, praise for a movie, music, a book (but doubt that he reads); pride in a friend’s or relative’s accomplishment; condolences for someone who has died; pleasure in sports, acclaim for a favorite team; references to history. In fact he seems totally uneducated, uncultured. The poorest persons on Twitter may have access to more beauty & meaning in life than the ‘most wealthy person in the world.’”

I wish people would stop spreading scurrilous rumours that President Trump is constantly shitting himself in public. After all, it’s perfectly normal to place a black mat underneath him when he visited the Fox News studio with its white sofa yesterday…

The anti-ICE protestors persecuted by the government just received their sentences. These are the first prosecutions under Trump's directive that Antifa is a domestic terrorist organization.

For the crime of moving a box of leftist magazines, Daniel Sanchez-Estrada was sentenced to 30 years in prison.

For the crime of attending a protest outside an ICE facility, Zachary Evetts, Autumn Hill, Savanna Batten, Elizabeth Soto, and Meagan Morris were sentenced to 50 years in prison.

For the crime of attending the demonstration and asking her husband (Sanchez-Estrada) to move the magazines, Maricela Rueda was sentenced to 70 years in prison.

For the crime of defending himself with a legal firearm, only firing after a cop raised his gun, a fact that was hidden during the trial, Benjamin Song was sentenced to 100 years in prison.

Americans are being given de-facto life sentences for protesting their government, exercising their freedom of speech, and defending themselves. The fascism you worried about is here.

people who showed up to a protest outside an ICE facility and left when things got chaotic are getting HALF CENTURY sentences in federal court right now, my god

‼️🇺🇸: JUDGE DENIES TYLER ROBINSON REQUEST TO CROSS-EXAMINE LANCE TWIGGS 👀

After prosecutors revealed most of their Charlie Kirk assassination case relies on Robinson's roommate Lance Twiggs' testimony, the judge DENIED defense' ability to question Twiggs during Preliminary hearing next month.

So the biggest reason they're charging Robinson is because of Twiggs, but the defense can't examine that evidence? 🤨

Seems like THE FIX IS IN, eh?

Because I posted this, Musk is really throttling my account. He doesn’t want the Epstein files trending. Let’s see if we can keep this trending and get it up to a million likes and RT’s! Do not stop talking about the Epstein files. Keep the flame burning! 🔥 #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

What never happened before Trump:

-Every president who lost has conceded except Snowflake Donald.

-No President has ever sold watches, fragrance, phones, and crypto WHILE president.

-No US President has ever made $1.3 billion a year AS president.

-No President has EVER been so unhinged as to add his name to a memorial of another president.

-No President has ever destoryed a third of the white house to build a gold dance hall.

-No President has ever forced taxpayers to pay for his war on algae, then lose the war.

-No President has ever been broken by late night comedians and pop stars.

-No President has ever forced the IRS to give him an official right to never pay taxes.

This is the stupidity we're talking about: She got an abortion after helping ban them. Blamed the democrats for the struggle she had to get one. And doesn't want interviews talking about it to be public.

Scientists in Atlanta were stopped from criticizing the Trump admin at a scientific conference, so let me do it here:

Trump is destroying biomedical research in America, and it will take decades to get back on track. 

Spread the word. Stand up for science.

Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.

This is the direct OPPOSITE of a "meritocracy."

Navy leadership believed that Admiral Stephen D. Barnett was the top choice for a command position that would oversee our US Naval bases "at home and abroad."

He was due a promotion.

He had more experience than the other candidates and he also successfully presided over the clean up of one of the Navy's "worst messes" in recent history—a fuel spill that contaminated an aquifer on a base in Hawaii, causing thousands to get sick.

But the admiral didn't get the job because he was black.

"Instead of Admiral Barnett, Mr. Hegseth selected a white officer who was the Navy leadership’s third choice."

"So far this year, Mr. Hegseth has blocked the promotions of at least 40 senior officers to general and admiral ranks. About half of those are women or members of minority groups."

There is nothing meritocratic about Hegseth's decision.

For years, conservatives have been complaining that the "DEI" boogeyman is responsible for discriminating against qualified white candidates.

This was, of course, not the case.

But now these same pearlclutchers are on board with an administration that's actually discriminating in hiring based on race.

Every accusation a confession.

🇬🇧 General Shirreff: Ukrainians are on a roll, gaining the initiative and bringing the war home to Russia.

Russians are losing roughly 1,000 soldiers a day and 35,000 a month. About 70% of Russian casualties are dead. Extraordinary numbers.

Ukraine’s level of innovation and adaptation is off the scale in terms of speed and ingenuity.

Ukrainians are striking deep into Russia and hitting oil infrastructure. Something like 40% of Russia’s oil-exporting infrastructure has been neutralized or put out of action.

Ukrainians are striking Russia’s ability to supply itself. The highways into Crimea from Rostov-on-Don, around Sea of Azov and then south to Crimean Peninsula, and ability to supply southern front and Donbas, are all being seriously impacted.

Trump: "G7 used to be G8. They should have kept the G8. You probably wouldn't have the war with Russia and Ukraine if they did."

FACT CHECK: Russia was excluded from the G8 in March 2014 as a direct response to its illegal invasion and annexation of Ukraine's Crimean peninsula.

A simple strip of wildflowers can dramatically reduce the need for chemical pesticides. So why aren’t they standard on every farm?

Farmers are increasingly planting colorful wildflower strips within and around their fields because these habitats attract beneficial insects that naturally control crop pests.

Ladybugs are the most familiar example. Both adult ladybugs and their larvae are voracious predators of aphids, small sap-sucking insects that damage crops. A single ladybug can eat dozens of aphids a day, while its larvae can consume hundreds before reaching adulthood.

Yet ladybugs are just the beginning. Wildflower strips also draw in hoverflies, lacewings, parasitic wasps, and predatory beetles, all highly effective natural enemies of common pests such as aphids, whiteflies, thrips, and caterpillars.

This approach is known as conservation biological control. Rather than releasing predators into fields, farmers create permanent habitats that support and boost populations of beneficial insects already present in the landscape.

The flowers supply essential nectar and pollen that many of these insects need as adults. Research shows that access to such resources significantly increases their lifespan, reproductive success, and pest-hunting efficiency.

Some parasitic wasps offer an especially impressive form of control: they lay eggs inside aphids or caterpillars, and their developing larvae consume the pest from the inside out.

Multiple studies confirm that fields with wildflower strips support far higher numbers of beneficial insects and achieve stronger natural pest suppression compared to conventional fields.

Beyond pest control, these strips provide additional benefits: they support pollinators, enhance biodiversity, reduce soil erosion, and create valuable wildlife habitat within agricultural areas.

Scientists are now fine-tuning which flower species work best for different crops and climates, aiming to design the most effective and practical wildflower strips possible.
