The reason he mentions Asia is because American soldiers raped tons of civilians during the Korean War when they were ransacking their communities. This man is literally making jokes about women being raped, including women soldiers. He should be removed from air immediately.

Stay alert, don’t walk alone, keep your keys out, carry mace, don’t leave your drink unattended. But sure, make a big fat joke out of women having to constantly keep our guard up. @FoxNews is garbage for letting this crap take place day in and day out. Garbage.

Democrats could be on a generational run if they ran the Mamdani playbook and they just simply refuse.

The way folks are almost required to perform public spectacles of grief and pain so that people don’t forget that the state’s mercenary force executed their loved ones is astonishing.

[Travis Akers 🇺🇸 @travisakers]

Please tell me joking about rape has not become acceptable on your network, @FoxNews?

[Jessica Tarlov @JessicaTarlov]

This has to stop. They’re just laughing and counting money and we’re letting them get away with it.

The White House is selling what looks a lot like a subscription to insider trading information... in broad daylight.

BREAKING: The attorney representing Lorenzo Salgado Araujo's brother says the substance in baggies found in his work van was granulated salt, "which is paired with lemon and water as a homemade electrolyte mix used by outdoor workers in extreme Texas heat."

Never forget that as early as the 1950s the oil industry knew this was *exactly* the crisis their pollution would create, but instead of warning the public, they funded massive, ongoing disinformation campaigns and lobbied against clean energy.

Climate change isn’t a tragedy, it’s a crime.

German activist Anna told me her story of being forcibly sexually penetrated in Israeli custody last year. I’m happy to see the Guardian pick up the story, but there hasn’t been a single mainstream German outlet that has yet

ICE detain mother with cancer on way to chemotherapy—a legal U.S. resident.

She needs chemo every 21 days to stop growth—or she will die.

"Please help me by sharing!" daughter asks.
"I don't want to lose her because of this BS!"

Agents say had to detain her for "their safety."

The elderly woman remains locked up in ICE detention—despite lawyer providing both her legal & medical documentation proving her case.

Her daughter says that agents demand more proof that her mother needs chemotherapy before she is released.

Incident occurred outside an Allsup’s gas station in Chaparral, New Mexico—less than a mile across the Texas border.

Marilyn doesn't have an account on this platform—so posting first full length and credited video here to help save her mother's life.

People still aren’t realizing that slavery is the only reason capitalism appeared to be “working.” Slavery is the foundation capitalism requires in order to sustain itself. That’s why these demons been mad since slavery was abolished. 😭

Cabo Verde holding the eventual finalists to a stalemate and going life and death with 1 half of the other semi final is an achievement that gets better by the day.
