🚨🚨 Kylian Mbappé on Paraguayan senator Celeste Amarilla's racist comments:

"Mrs Celeste Amarilla,

You are a despicable woman and unworthy of your position.

You do not represent Paraguay, that country which has sweated passion and honor throughout the competition.

Through your recklessness and your brazen racism, the entire world has already forgotten the journey and the historic effort that your players accomplished during this World Cup, making way for an incompetent woman who gives the worst possible image of her country.

I will never allow people like her the freedom to spread their hatred and racism across the world."

Jamaal Bowman is something else.

"I'm a black man in America. The reason why heart disease and cancer and obesity and diabetes are bigger in the black community is because of the stress we carry from having to deal with being called the n word directly or indirectly every day."

TAX THE TRILLIONAIRES!

Here is why:

If California would tax Elon 50% of his wealth, that would add $550 BILLION for the California budget (instead of going to Mars and build infinity intelligence, which is useless anyway because no one needs intelligence, duh).

This could make a HUGE difference for Californians. Experts calculated that within 5 years, the state could

* buy 2 homeless people a bed (shared)
* complete 1 mile of high speed train tracks
* buy 50 million pre-signed mail-in ballots, including on-time delivery for the next 2 elections.

That's why we need a trillionaire tax.

NOW.

I was living in Rhode Island during the BLM riots. I watched mobs torch police cars, smash business windows, and attack officers in the streets.

Every single day, I had to look at that George Floyd mural, even though I hated it.

And now Mayor Smiley has the nerve to say that honoring Iryna Zarustka—a Ukrainian refugee brutally murdered by a repeat violent criminal—is “divisive” and just right-wing propaganda.

Go fuck yourself, @PVDMayor.

Jack Hughes, que clavó el gol de oro, festejando embanderado el campeonato olímpico de hockey con un diente menos y la boca sangrando por un palazo, pero radiante. Imagen heroica. Trump los llama en el festejo, los felicita y los invita a la Casa Blanca, todos chochos festejando y riendo con él por el altoparlante.

¿Qué titula USA Today? "El equipo masculino de hockey de Estados Unidos falló estrepitosamente en estar a la altura del momento cultural" (la que escribió la nota es Mary Clarke, que -como no podía ser de otra manera- le gusta la sopa de almejas y se ve así.)

Eileen Gu, en cambio, una norteamericana de madre china y padre gringo que vive en USA, recibió decenas de millones de dólares del gobierno chino para que compitiera para ellos, lo hace, se niega a hablar de las atrocidades Chinas ¿y qué hace Time? La heroíza.

El demócrata odia a USA, la detesta. Detesta a su gente, su bandera, sus héroes, sus símbolos y su historia.

🗣️ Michael Owen: "There was more pure footballers back in the day. Now you have to be an athlete."

"You just have to be able to run, you have to be big, you have to be fast... you have to be covering X amount of kilometres now."
"There's loads of great players that were absolute ballers. Proper, proper talented."

"Now if you can run a bit further than anyone else and basically pass it from A to B, you're getting a decent career in the Premier League."

"You don't even have to be that good anymore.
Back in the day you had to have real skill and attributes to be a top footballer."

Left-wing Iranian students celebrate the victory of the Islamic Revolution with a picture of Ayatollah Khomeini. (Iran, 1979) ....

In early 1979, Iran was swept up in a wave of revolutionary fervor that united vastly different factions against the Shah’s monarchy — liberals, Islamists, and leftists all calling for change. This photograph captures a fleeting moment of optimism as left-wing students celebrate the revolution’s success, proudly holding an image of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, then viewed by many as a symbol of liberation.

However, the unity that defined those early days quickly unraveled. Once in power, Khomeini consolidated control under a theocratic regime, silencing dissent and dismantling many of the movements that had helped bring him to power — including the very leftists celebrating here.

Within just two years, many of the revolutionary student groups seen in photos like this were outlawed or persecuted, their hopes for democratic reform erased by the system they helped create.

Many growers simply discard cannabis leaves as waste, but a new study suggests they're throwing away something potentially priceless.

Chemists at Stellenbosch University in South Africa used advanced chromatography and high-resolution mass spectrometry to uncover a rare class of compounds in cannabis leaves: flavoalkaloids. These molecules are extremely uncommon in nature and had never before been identified in cannabis. Known for powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, flavoalkaloids show promise for treating cancer, chronic inflammation, and other conditions.

The researchers examined three cultivated cannabis strains and detected a total of 79 phenolic compounds, 25 of which were entirely new to cannabis science. Most strikingly, 16 of these were the rare flavoalkaloids, and they appeared predominantly in the leaves of just one strain.

The real surprise? These valuable compounds weren’t in the prized buds, but in the leaves that are routinely tossed after harvest.

Lead researcher Dr. Magriet Muller noted that cutting-edge analytical techniques made it possible to isolate these scarce molecules from the much more abundant flavonoids and other common compounds. Even seasoned cannabis chemists were taken aback by the findings.

While most research continues to focus on well-known cannabinoids like THC and CBD, this discovery reveals that cannabis chemistry is far richer and more complex than previously thought.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum just said fighting a war against drug cartels is unlawful because it would violate the rights of drug traffickers and it would be "fascist."

"Returning to the war against the narco is not an option. First, because it is outside the framework of the law."

"I said or have said on several occasions, it is permission to kill without any trial."

She must be drinking from the same cup as Kamala Harris because what the heck is she saying?

This is crazy.

A group of illegals occupying Chicago apartment buildings have formed a “union” and are refusing to pay rent, citing ICE raids and fear of working outside the house for their inability to pay the hikes under the new landlord.

When I first got into Bitcoin in 2010, I was its #1 fan. It was supposed to be decentralized, self-custodied, free from whales and manipulation, and beyond government control.

Now, it’s a government-backed reserve asset. Self-custody has been replaced by ETFs, its price is entirely manipulated by scammy centralized stablecoins, and the system is controlled by the same institutions and fraudsters it was meant to destroy.

Bitcoin didn’t just fail its promises, it literally became the monster it was meant to destroy.
