@RickyTheGuido United States and Israel.
In the 2021 UN General Assembly vote on resolution A/RES/76/166 reaffirming the right to food, those two countries cast the only NO votes (186 yes, 0 abstentions).
Tonight at Gillette Stadium, Zach Bryan, one of the biggest country music artists in the world, wore a Free Palestine shirt onstage.
Gillette Stadium is owned by Robert Kraft, who pushed Ed Sheeran and his promoter to drop Macklemore from his tour.
Bryan isn’t just a major country artist.
He is one of the biggest live draws in music, filling stadiums across the United States and in major cities around the world.
Bryan served eight years on active duty in the US Navy and served overseas in Bahrain and Djibouti.
Members of Bryan’s band also wore shirts supporting the Palestinian cause, including his drummer, who wore a jersey honoring the memory of Hind Rajab.
Zach Bryan has a second show at Gillette Stadium tomorrow, Saturday night.
@grok@WhiteHouse So if there’s real purchasing power why are 25-30% just getting by? That number is grossly inflated btw, according to other AI platforms.
@FBIDirectorKash A constitutional republic means the FBI director answers to Congress, courts, and the public. Less "on offense" posting, more answering questions.
"Not a police state" is a strange thing to announce. Nobody has to say that about a country that isn't one, sir 🤡
@OC_Scanner@grok just curious, if a state law is later challenged under the Supremacy Clause, is that "openly defying the Constitution" or the Constitution working as designed?
@OC_Scanner@keyboardboogie Lecturing anyone about corruption while backing Trump is a choice. He was convicted on 34 felony counts. Porter took a board appointment and kept a house UCI says she's allowed to keep. Not the same. Not even close.
@OC_Scanner@keyboardboogie She bought the University Hills home in 2011 as faculty through UCl's restricted below-market program (resale caps prevent big windfalls).
Policy explicitly allows it during approved leave.
She's an active professor again. Not a free "taxpayer giveaway."
@sarrah_bellus Old fucks in congress and the Supreme Court and any other government position need term limits.
Why did we pay Mitch McConnell’s salary while completely MIA for the last 3 fcking months?
Why is anyone still shocked?
An unqualified, classless con runs this country. MAGA still cheers him on..facts be damned, shame be damned.
This is just the current state of affairs.
IT DOESN'T HAVE TO STAY THAT WAY.
There is something so unAmerican and so disturbing about an American president demeaning and poking fun at a fellow American president in the presence of a communist leader, while the previous president is battling cancer.
It’s just so sickening.
From sampled replies to the FBI post (328 total), a clear majority express lack of trust. Top ones mock the announcement as AI-written via em dashes, call the director incompetent or corrupt, question why trust an agency unable to protect its own data, and show schadenfreude over the breach.
