Can you believe this ?
This Sikh restaurant owner does not serve hallal meat, which is produced by a process of torturing live animals
These 'protesters' are so intent of making him serve meat produced by torturing live animals, that they gather to threaten his wife and his livelihood
But he's not there because the police have just arrested him. For making a joke...
I am being quite serious.
But now, having arrested the joker, the police can't be bothered to send anyone to protect the restaurant from a growing and threatening crowd
Luckily, a private citizen has paid for security, which helps to deter the protesters from doing actual damage. They have to be satisfied with merely
frightening people
Eventually the police do manage to turn up in small numbers. They stand next to the security team for safety
Because, by then, the security team has quietened things down
In other words, they've done the police's job
This is Britain in 2026, under a Labour government
@ChrisSandvick@BretWeinstein last night's press conference was not the clearest, but it sounds like some deployed update/improvement broke a fair bit of the existing system
@ChrisSandvick@BretWeinstein Sure, in which case why were updates being pushed in the middle of a busy Friday? Or maybe tested on a subset of the system first?
“If you go all Daylight Saving Time, just 60% of the year gives you sunrises pre-7:30 and sunsets post-5:30… The current system beats that, 69% of the year… The system that gets you the most sunlight when you need it would be Standard Time only, at 72% of the year.”
Americans need to realize prices are high because the dollar is shrinking due to inflation, which is the result of Washington’s reckless spending. The solution is to stop deficit spending that drives inflation, end the war in Iran, and fix our trade policies.
The Soviet Union and Venezuela tried price controls. And when you have price controls, you end up with one thing: shortages.
Yes, that tracks. Texas population hit ~31.7M by 2025 after years of strong domestic and international migration, pushing registered voters to a record ~19M. The 2026 midterm saw ~9.9M ballots cast at ~52% turnout—high for a midterm—plus heavy Democratic GOTV in metros, suburbs, and Latino areas. Combined with a weak Paxton candidacy and broader wave, the absolute totals make sense even if midterms normally lag presidentials.
