SYKES: Do you think your positions are in line with President Trump?

CHRIS WRIGHT: Yes, I hope so

SYKES: Do you love inflation?

WRIGHT: Uh. I love ending Iran's ability to have a nuclear weapon

SYKES: That was not my question. Do you love inflation, yes or no?

WRIGHT: No

SYKES: Do you know that your boss just stated that he 'loves inflation'?

WRIGHT: He's an entertaining, hyperbolic guy who has done tremendous leadership

SYKES: So it sounds like you're unaware that President Trump just said he 'loves inflation'

Every fact is “fake news”

Every protest is “paid agitators”

Everything they don’t like is a “hoax”

Every election they lose is “rigged”

Imagine being so fucking weak and pathetic that you have to invent an alternate reality because you’re incapable of dealing with the truth.

We stopped hearing about hostage crisis in Israel & Palestine because 100% of the remaining hostages are Palestinian .... being tortured, raped & starved to death.

A internet inteira só consegue falar sobre a "fertilidade" de Mariam Nabatanzi.

Mas essa história nunca foi sobre biologia.
Foi sobre um crime silencioso.

Aos 12 anos, ela foi vendida pelo próprio pai para um homem de 57 anos.

Ela se tornou a quinta esposa em um casamento sem amor e cheio de abusos.

"Aos 18 anos, eu já tinha 18 filhos e implorei por ajuda médica."

O médico a proibiu de usar anticoncepcionais, dizendo que a única forma de não morrer era continuar tendo bebês devido à sua condição.

Ninguém percebeu o verdadeiro absurdo.
A própria madrasta que a criou se tornou amante do seu marido e teve filhos com ele.

Em 2015, o homem vendeu a casa da família e fugiu com todo o dinheiro, deixando-a com as crianças.

"Uma de minhas filhas se formou em enfermagem, foi para a Rússia e nunca mais me deu notícias."

Hoje, ela trabalha em 5 empregos diferentes para sustentar os filhos sozinha.

Reduzir a vida de Mariam a um "caso impressionante de fertilidade" é ignorar uma sequência brutal de abandonos, abusos e falhas do sistema.

It’s absolutely treasonous that 97% of members of Congress believe a foreign country’s account of the attack, and not the first hand testimony of our own veterans.

I appreciate the efforts of Thomas Massie, but at this point, we are not sovereign.

One of the things we don't talk about enough is what a hypersexualised culture does to young girls.

I remember being around 13 and already scared of "heterosexual" sex because were told it was inevitable, that it would hurt, that penetration was something that had to happen to "take away" your virginity, and that boys would expect things things such as a blow job. When I said I didn't want that, I was mocked, dismissed, and told when I grow up I'd want that for myself.

Meanwhile, boys are raised to look forward to sex, to see it as something they gain and take from girls. Girls, on the other hand, are prepared to expect discomfort, pressure, even humiliation as part of the experience.

This is a very fucked up way to socialise children and teenagers, and I hope none of you are passing these ideas on to your kids.

Zionist does not in fact just mean “Jew.” For example, some of the very worst Zionists on earth are evangelical Christians.

[JustSaying_1984 @justsaying_1984]

Anyone saying “don’t review bomb or stop shopping at local bricks and minifigs it’s not the other store’s fault don’t punish them” is unaware of how this works. All those stores feed corporate money. When you buy stuff they get a cut. This is evil. Do not spend money at these stores.

Allegedly in my opinion

My greatest disappointment as an adult was discovering that bad people get away with everything.

@EmpireFiles Oh! Oh! Reminds me, a first. Today I went out to take care of business, the military were passing through.

😬🥺A first for the San Francisco Bay Area.

Anyone else notice the military on the move in Northern California recently?

There are hundreds of mock cities for Spec Ops to train for urban combat. The reason they are using your towns is because they are training for you.

I used to think abortion shouldn’t be legal.

Then I saw this amazing movie that highlighted the dangers incumbent to women when abortions are illegal and have to be done secretly.

The movie was called “Dirty Dancing.”

Penny was always gonna get that abortion… The only question is if it was going to be done in a clinic or back alley.

I’m pro-choice because what other people do to their bodies isn’t my concern, and all women deserve safe healthcare choices.

prochoice

🚨BREAKING: Epstein file says Trump knew about underage sex parties occurring at his golf course and that revenue from the club was used to fund them.

Trump has known for days this was about to be published in his home state of Florida.

Hasan Piker: “There’s two major lies Republicans tell all the time. Number one: Immigrants do crimes in overwhelming numbers. That’s a lie. The evidence is the exact opposite. The evidence shows migrants are responsible for a much lower share of crime per capita than documented citizens are. The second biggest lie is there are far too many people voting in this country and we have to restrict them. The problem is far too little people are voting. Voter fraud, not a problem. The real problem is voter suppression”

Note also how she doesn't call Palestinians by their name, choosing to use the generic Arabs. That in itself is stealthy and insidious.

Taking hormonal BC simply because you don’t want a period is perfectly safe for the overwhelming majority of people, Prisha. It’s actually one of the safest, most effective ways to stop a period temporarily.
