you can gather together whatever coalition you like, but these people represent about 30% of the electorate and believe a secular democracy is a concept whose time has passed. it will take a lot more than tonal tweaks to change that. we are where we are

I just checked and this is real. It's on Border Patrol's official Instagram (I don't see it on Facebook) and is being celebrated by Nazis on Twitter, as you can see in the screenshot.

The clip is just 13 seconds long too, so it's a very intentional thing. We've got a Nazi government.

The living Israeli hostages held in Gaza have been freed under the first phase of Donald Trump's peace plan, alongside a Palestinian prisoner release.

This is really smart. Amazed at the hysteria over the ascendance of a woman entrepreneur who clearly knows how to cover and sell blood machine and who's not afraid to take on a mob.
