American Duterte might want to watch himself. (Yeah, right, as if he has the ability to control himself.) Philippine Duterte is on trial right now for this same thing.

Trump: I don't think we're gonna necessarily ask for a declaration of war. I think we're just gonna kill people. Okay? We're gonna kill them. They're gonna be, like, dead.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

the dork in question is Jed Rubenfeld, husband of Amy Chua of Tiger Mom fame, who also mentored Vance. The fix was in, and it was most likely a very gentle 'debate'

At Yale Political Union, 72% of students voted against Curtis Yarvin’s resolution to “end the democratic experiment.”

He debated a Yale Law professor on the question.

New rule: Anyone who “debates” Yarvin is an even bigger and more desperate dork.

I saw a tiktok from a guy who says that if Johnson doesn't swear her in by Wednesday, he's going to release information about Johnson's Grinder account and ip address. And I'm for for that.

Grijalva: I was looking at the example of now-Representative Walkinshaw from Virginia, who was elected two weeks ago Tuesday. The following Wednesday—less than 24 hours later—he was sworn in, with unofficial results.

So for me, apparently the rules have now changed in just two weeks.

And remember, the reason he wanted separate vaccines wasn't due to any science, but because *he'd filed a patent application for a single measles vaccine*. It was just grifting.

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station.

Heritage Foundation has released an absolutely insane policy proposal to label all trans people as domestic terrorists. It uses completely made up instances of terrorism and made up statistics but facts don't matter to them.

They want us all eradicated.

Page 1:
Flyer from The Heritage Foundation Oversight Project titled “Transgender Ideology-Inspired Violent Extremism (TIVE): Background and FAQs on Need for an FBI Domestic Terrorism Designation.” The page defines “Transgender Ideology” and “TIVE,” outlining beliefs allegedly associated with them. It claims such ideology justifies violence against opponents or frames opposition as violence. The text references the alleged assassination of Charlie Kirk, urging the FBI to classify TIVE as domestic terrorism.

Page 2:
Continuation of flyer with a section titled “Recent Instances of TIVE-Motivated Acts of Domestic Terrorism.” Lists multiple violent events from 2018 to 2025, attributing them to transgender ideology. Includes mugshots of two alleged attackers. Followed by a “Frequently Asked Questions and Key Terms” section, addressing whether transgender people are terrorists, comparing TIVE with “Nihilistic Violent Extremism,” and discussing FBI designations.

Page 4:
Section titled “Terminology Used by TIVE.” Defines terms including cisgender, deadnaming, Gillick competence, misgendering, “Right to Exist,” “Trans genocide,” and a phrase “You either have a live boy or dead girl, you choose.” Each is presented as terminology used in or associated with TIVE. Page layout is text-heavy, no additional graphics.

Those of us who said Trump was a fascist got scolded for overreacting, catastrophizing, exaggerating, taking him too seriously.

But we were right.

The savvy scolds said lefties were overreacting to Trump a year ago, and calling him "fascist" was crazy. How's that looking now?

I have no common ground with people who say women shouldn't be allowed to vote. Or defend slavery. I'm never going to have anything to do with them. But, hey, you do you, white man.
