If you're in the U.S. military, and you're given an illegal order, you are *required by law* to NOT follow it. This includes ANY armed presence at polling places/voting centers.

We have nothing to worry about with AI, says the guy who promised he’d end the Russia-Ukraine war in a day, who doctored an official government hurricane map, and who insisted that Mexico would pay for the wall.

On @outfrontcnn.bsky.social, @jreinermd.bsky.social asks a pretty good question here: “Why is it acceptable in this country at this time—in this perilous time—for the president of the United States to have a dramatic problem staying awake?”

“We're here today because our neighbors are being kidnapped, our loved ones are being abducted off of the streets because of the color of their skin…” Today, Queens New Yorkers are standing together to defend our neighbors, and say loud and clear: ❌🧊ICE is not welcome in our communities!

More #ICE cruelty on our dime. Gabriel Johnson, a 55-year-old Liberian immigrant legally in the US since he was 15, was taken by ICE from his home in Cary, NC, on July 15. He suffered a stroke on July 30 in a TX detention center. His family was granted AN HOUR w/him. 🧾 t2m.co/PASiV2sx

God already built a wall through Big Bend — it's called the Chisos Mountains. We don't need to give billions of our tax dollars to out of state vendors. We don't need to desecrate this sacred land. We don't need this useless, disgraceful, corrupt Big Bend border wall.

France calls out the U.S. at a UN meeting: “The US used to be a beacon of human rights. Not anymore. Today, it stands alongside North Korea, Nicaragua, Mali and Russia. Isolated. And the world no longer listens to it.” U.S. representatives stormed out of the meeting. Well said France! 👏🏼🇫🇷👏🏼

Moscow’s aggression against 🇺🇦 functions as a legitimating ritual for its grip on Tatarstan’s oil, Yakutia’s diamonds, and the political agency of 140M inhabitants. Such a war will not end if a predatory state is allowed to feed its imperial ambition 26/28 kyivindependent.com/why-russia-c...

The world can shape the incentives under which Moscow operates, but it cannot decide when Russia de-imperializes. That is for Russians to work out, but their future rulers must learn the big lesson: wars of conquest bring ever larger costs, not rewards 27/28 nypost.com/2026/07/11/o...

As Scotland needs immigrants to deliver essential services, and England apparently has too many according to some politicians, why not help them to relocate north?
