This may be the biggest free speech crisis in living memory. The president now bragging about detaining a lawful permanent resident and smearing him as 'pro Hamas', no outlining any specific crimes he is accused of or charged with. This is what a fascist takeover looks like.

Trump takes credit for Mahmoud Khalil's arrest by ICE:

Following my previously signed Executive Orders, ICE proudly apprehended and detained Mahmoud Khalil, a Radical Foreign Pro-Hamas Student on the campus of Columbia University. This is the first arrest of many to come. We know there are more students at Columbia and other Universities across the Country who have engaged in pro-terrorist, anti-Semitic, anti-American activity, and the Trump Administration will not tolerate it. Many are not students, they are paid agitators. We will find, apprehend, and deport these terrorist sympathizers from our country — never to return again. If you support terrorism, including the slaughtering of innocent men, women, and children, your presence is contrary to our national and foreign policy interests, and you are not welcome here. We expect every one of America’s Colleges and Universities to comply. Thank you!

This also likely boosted Republican turnout in CA, which played a role in Kamala losing the popular vote

Reminder that Adam Schiff and the state Democratic party ratfucked the primary election to make sure there was a republican in the other spot instead of Katie Porter or Barbara Lee, both of whom would have made far superior senators for this time.

Bunch of cowards.

This “oh noes trans athletes” is a cooked up grift and these door knobs are falling for it. Primary every single one of them.

Yes this is horrible but Facebook has never been a bastion of intelligent thought anyway. It’s BEEN teaming with Shaderoom idiots, racists, and the like for some time. All this means is that we need to batten down our online communities and hope to weather the storm.

New Hampshire Rep. Ann Kuster reflects on retiring from Congress at 68: ‘I’m trying to set a better example’

www.bostonglobe.com/2024/12/26/n...

Kuster, 68, said her decision to retire was based on many factors, including Donald Trump’s approaching return to the presidency, but she hopes it will also encourage Democrats to make room for younger generations in the halls of power.

“I’m trying to set a better example,” Kuster told the Globe. “I think there are colleagues — and some of whom are still very successful and very productive — but others who just stay forever.”

And as for a role in a new Trump-led Washington, she said: “I’m just not the best gladiator for it right now.”

Strippers keep telling y’all that they aren’t making as much money as they used to and y’all are pretending it’s because nobody cares about stripping anymore. When in reality, the last time they were saying this was in 2007, right before the stock market crashed.

There’s nothing more enjoyable in basketball than watching Brunson get annoyed at the person defending him, then proceeding to cook that person for 2-3 minutes straight.

Between playing some FIFA with my nephew last week and seeing this, I’m inching closer to getting a gaming system for the first time in close to 15 years.
