There are currently no openly transgender athletes actively competing in any major professional sports leagues these signs and current discourse is genuinely just to attack trans people for existing
Nate Silver, apparently without irony (I am accurately paraphrasing):
“We should not talk about the President ordering bogus prosecutions for political purposes because he has also done many things that are worse.”
You’ll find no better illustration of the problem than this.
They are.
This reminds me of one of the saddest stories on the internet, the years long effort to offer 25 million books, including many thought long gone, for free for every person, available at every library.
They got sued into oblivion, and it’s dead on a server.
Some folks don’t believe that a “principled AI company” would destroy books after they suck out all the information for their models, even one-of-a-kind books and manuscripts.
Here it is admitted in open court.
🚨BREAKING: Men posed as ICE agents and detained and assaulted a woman… and Tom Homan is telling everyone that they just have to comply with this.
A woman was driving on Highway 211, in Oregon, when a vehicle with flashing red and blue lights pulled behind her.
Believing she was being stopped by law enforcement, she pulled over.
Two men approached her vehicle, one was carrying a rifle, and they claimed to be ICE agents and told her she was being detained.
They pulled her out of her car, searched her, and put her in the back of their vehicle.
Then, a third man… who remained inside the vehicle… assaulted her.
He told her he was the “guard.”
The men were wearing tactical vests labeled “POLICE,” carrying fake badges, and wore face coverings.
They held her for nearly 20 minutes before telling her she was free to go… and then she drove herself to the hospital.
And while she was there, she reported that she started receiving text messages from someone claiming to be a law firm offering legal representation for her detention.
Federal authorities later confirmed this was NOT an official ICE operation… These were people pretending to be federal agents.
And this is exactly why Tom Homan telling people to “comply” with anyone claiming to be ICE is so incredibly dangerous.
Because what is a person supposed to do when someone in a tactical vest, carrying a gun, pulls them over with flashing lights and says they are federal agents?
Just trust them?
This is not about telling people to resist legitimate law enforcement.
This is about the government normalizing a system where anyone can look like an armed federal agent, claim to have authority over you, and expect you to obey without being able to verify who they are.
That doesn’t make people safer.
It makes everyone more vulnerable to being kidnapped, assaulted, or killed by criminals who know they can pretend to be ICE.
You can't even defend this. She is LITERALLY built like a child. Boxy torso, lack of pelvic tilt, no developed legs, thigh or chest, the round stomach area. THATS A CHILD. FULL. STOP.
Caleb Hammer is sort of a throwback, in the same vein as characters like Dr. Phil. And like Dr. Phil, he invites his audience to gawk at these people who've been specially selected to stir up self-righteous anger and inspire torrents of abuse. It's despicable.
I don't think a lot of people appreciate just how radical the DSA is. They would be way on the left even by European standards with their true positions as opposed to the compromises they're willing to accept for tactical purposes.
The reason WI Dems are flailing right now is that no state Democratic Party has experienced the consequences of GOP authoritarianism more, and the prospect of hong likely losing the election and then the state houses into redistricting is their worst nightmare
The documents Trump is referring to right now, and CNN has reviewed all of them, largely discuss vulnerabilities that have been known for years and/or are reflected in the 2021 US intel community assessment.
None of the declassified information supports the claim that any previous election results — including the 2020 presidential contest that Trump lost — were manipulated by foreign interference or fraud in a way that would’ve changed the outcome.
Tonight, Trump will claim that the intelligence community conspired to conceal from him information about China’s efforts in the 2020 election.
Except that the Intelligence Community Assessment was compiled under Director John Ratcliffe and briefed to him on 1/7/21.
