Siri, please define "lethal attack"
NYT headline, "Hegseth ordered lethal attack but not killing of survivors, officials say" above a photo of Secretary of Defense and ass-clown Pete Hegseth

You've just died.

The 6th picture in your phone gallery is what killed you.

I can see that.
Baked potato with sour cream, steamed asparagus and pieces of grilled ribeye on a plate.

I purchased this tube, alleged to be of Livfresh dental gel, on walmart.com. It was imported from China, but otherwise appears to be packaged identically to the genuine, domestically produced product.
A tube that looks like Livfresh dental gel, but shrink-wrapped as "made in China." Purchased on Walmart.com.

Gee, I wonder where the NYT will be on the mayoral race?
Leading headline on the NYT website at 7:33 pm Eastern time. 1. "Mamdani's success spotlights a deepening rupture among U.S. Jews." 2. "As Donors Work Against Mamdani, Top Democrats Stop Short of Backing Him."

But hear me out. Sexy internment camps!
Screen cap of Drew Pavlou tweet. The tweet says "These are the camps that Zohran's wife is going to run in NYC now. A fucked up fate that I would not wish on my worst enemy." The picture is a drawing of a tall, blonde dominatrix in black leather and spike heels, holding a whip. She is overlooking a pit mine with naked men being overseen by other dominatrixes. The drawing has the text "This is the future liberals want." But I don't see a single taco truck. 🙁

USC law students have started a hotline for people to call when they have an immigration-related court hearing but don't want to show up in person for fear of being arrested/detained by ICE outside the courthouse. The students will help people complete and submit a "Motion to Change Hearing Format," which can allow someone to have a remote/online hearing instead of in-person. Hotline # is (888) 462-5211 They can help in English or Spanish

He's since deleted the sheet because of nut job responses. But, yea. Still, "no kings" rolls off the tongue.
Jacob T. Levy writes: "[whispers in Canadian] pretty much every king in the last thousand years other than Louis XIV has always had more legal and constitutional limits than Trump and his Claremont apologists accept. The phrase you're all looking for is "no dictators.""

"Imagine if there was an old tweet of our current secretary of homeland security being an absolute hypocrite clown about Joe Biden federalizing the National Guard." The picture shows a tweet by Kristi Noem, screen capping her on a split screen with Sean Hannity. The text reads, in part, "If Joe Biden federalizes the National Guard, that would be a direct attack on states' rights."
