It is beyond belief in the supposed Land of the Free, a paramilitary force can act with complete impunity - backed by the White House deputy chief of staff saying on TV that any interference by city or state officials is illegal. It looks very much like deliberate incitement.
ICE didn’t “enforce the law” in Santa Ana, they maimed this kid and took his eye.🤬 Six hours of surgery pulling out glass, plastic, and metal. One shard stopped 7mm from his artery. Left eye: gone forever. And spare me the patriotic excuses, this is commie-Nazi shit. I saw

I am a Canadian medic in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. For 13 months, I served as a nurse. I gave injections, wrapped knees, bandaged wounds, cleaned blood, steadied shaking hands. I did the work that needed to be done, every day, without complaint. Today, I am a combat medic.

Best wishes to you and your wife, Matt.
Hey guys. This is going to be the most personal update I’ve ever shared publicly. I live in public view — my work does, anyway. I’ve never been shy about sharing my ideas or passions. But I’ve always worked very hard to keep my family out of view. That’s partly for their safety.

Huge News! Today, I am proud to introduce the Greenland Annexation and Statehood Act, a bill that allows the President to find the means necessary to bring Greenland into the Union. Let me be clear, our adversaries are trying to establish a foothold in the Arctic, and we can’t

Why aren't oil prices rallying on the chaos in Iran? Iran is a major producer. It sits on the Strait of Hormuz. Oil (WTI) today is $59. Normally, regime change implies supply risk which implies $100 oil. Not this time. The market isn't scared of a shortage. It is terrified
