CBS identified Illinois based Three Z Printing as the holder of the permit associated with the fake transgender mailers. One of the owners, Matt Zerrusen, is based in Dallas. His Instagram shows pictures with Charlie Kirk and Donald Trump, and comments from local Republicans.
Freedom of movement is the most fundamental human right; everything else is built on top of it. The 20th century was a campaign to smother that freedom and we should not let it win
I remember seeing something on the news years ago about a group of people learning Irish in a Gaeltacht somewhere, and one of them was an elderly Japanese man who barely spoke English, and had to navigate on broken Irish.
He should be given an automatic Bemusement Visa that can't be taken away.
Joe Manchin killed the CTC expansion that would have cut child poverty in half because he believes poor people are all drug addicts and criminals who would have used the money immorally.
Wether it’s Vivek attacking a sexual assault victim or Acton being assaulted as a 12yo, both sides are at fault.
Thank you for having the courage to say this Joe Manchin
I see the Shopify guy has ginned up some homo-hate on the other site w his post about a a Toronto safe streets ad that used w two ostensibly gay dads walking their child. What a fucking hateful destructive menace. Just enjoy your money asshole.
i dislike that in the modern infosphere our political agitators are also vloggers, celebs, entertainers, entrepreneurs and salespeople. it's like putting a combination kitchen-bathroom-toilet in your house because all of them need sinks
This is in line with what I've heard from schools, and what people across Ward 1 have seen with our own eyes over the past year.
Ending MPD collaboration with ICE and protecting immigrants is not just a public safety issue, it's an education issue.
A new report on truancy in D.C. says that some Latino students are truant because the increased presence of ICE, other federal agents, and National Guard had "negative impact on their families." One kid said he was "genuinely afraid to step outside" after his dad was deported.
PRIEST HANDING OUT CHARITY IN 1932: don't be so hasty in judgment of what we can spare, for we all must sacrifice in these hard times—all men must learn to live on but a crust of bread
daCrustFr3ak69: oh nooooooooooooo 😏 not the crust........ 😏😏
i'm really sorry but i need everyone to stop making droll little comments about this kind of thing. he is trying to incite mass ethnic violence against my neighbors and democratic leadership and national media is conspiring to enable him by ignoring and downplaying his comments.
This article makes me think of one of my esteemed doctoral Religion advisors, who made the University of Chicago admin angry every year by submitting a proposal to construct a memorial on campus to the worldwide victims of the UChicago Economics Department. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/18/o...
"UTSA may have beat Navy, but Air Force lost harder. And at the end of the day, isn't that what really matters to our brave men and women at sea?"
"Absolutely, Jim."
I am in a Palestinian deli in east Tennessee, where I have ordered a reuben, with a side of fried okra, and the place also features all of these things on the walls
in other words, I believe I am about to have the single most American lunch it's possible to have
people lash out when exposed to uncertainty, even second-hand (your great-grandma's generation just had a lot of dead kids). people resort to cruelty and willful stupidity when asked to consider that the institutions we all rely on just don't work - can and will fail, and ruin lives in the process.
Students from North Carolina A&T can be seen marching back to their HBCU after voting on the first day of early voting in the state.

schumer's a racist piece of shit who hates muslims and by his own accounting now prioritizes israel over domestic concerns, but jeffries also reduced this to one of many illegal/unjust prosecutions when in fact trying to *strip a sitting rep's citizenship* is orders of magnitude worse than that.
Chuck Schumer — one of the most powerful Democrats in the country — has not issued statements to the press or through his social media channels about the administration’s attack on Ilhan Omar, which critics have described as a five alarm fire for the state of democracy in the U.S.
there's a straight line from the leader of the fucking house acting like trying to denaturalize someone is equivalent to prosecution over bad mortgage paperwork and the democratic party's abject failure to do anything meaningful about the growing crisis caused by lack of pathways to citizenship
this haunts me. multi-decade TPS, the dreamers, biden's half-baked refugee work where he ignored desantis and abbott's literal human trafficking, this is a dereliction of duty and a betrayal of vulnerable people that very few people seem to recognize, much less feel a responsibility to address.
Very excited to finally unveil this!! Bluesky's Own @opinionhaver.bsky.social was kind enough to sit down with me and discuss the themes, background, and inspiration of his ongoing serialized fiction GLASSLANDS, one of the most uniquely *contemporary* stories I've ever read.
This is incredibly bad news. The individual sanctions added layers of friction that made it harder & more challenging for the Junta in Myanmar to source arms, fuel & foreign currency.

There is nothing more American than birthright citizenship. Nothing shows more ingratitude to America—nothing shows more ingratitude to the hundreds of thousands of Union dead—than acting as though Abdul El-Sayed is less of an American than JD Vance bc of his skin color or where his dad was born.
When Grammy-winning musician Rhiannon Giddens begins playing “Old Corn Liquor,” a traditional Black American folk tune, acclaimed Chinese pipa virtuoso Wu Man recognizes similarities to Chinese pentatonic music and spontaneously joins in.
The joy on their faces says it all.
Really not talked about enough how the left and progressives were completely right about Joe Biden during the 2020 primaries in that he was too old and would hand the country over to fascism
my wedding night turning from joy to horror as my bride takes advantage of my slumber to untie the mysterious green ribbon affixed to the base of my penis
many centrists are as disdainful of science as MAGA these days. virtually every study on the topic, and there have been many, show that youth programs reduce crime. it's a settled question. this is no different from claiming vaccines are a hoax.
you literally never need to tell me why you're canceling a meeting or asking for a meeting to be canceled. Yes, we can do that, and I am sorry and/or happy for you about whatever happened
No president can abuse power alone: he needs a complicit Congress, and contractors to do the physical work. Riverbend's owner Logan Jones could have said "we can't start that fast", or "we need to wait for the court order". He didn't. You can call and tell him what you think. 2/

One of my former students just witnessed this on Orange Line in the DC Metro - ICE/HSI abducting someone from the platform of Stadium-Armory.
She was scared. She didn’t know what to do. She shouted “ICE is here!” to warn others. I’m proud she did that. And she bore witness.
