The thing about Timothee Chalamet choosing to shit on ballet and opera is that his mom βmajored in dance at LaGuardia High School and attended Yale University on a ballet scholarship. As a child, she danced with the New York City Ballet and later went on to perform in several Broadway musicals.β
Did you read the thread by Capitol hunters? It explains in detail why it's not just a dumb mistake. He chose to be expelled from the Marines rather than cover up his tattoo. Look at Reddit posts, who he retweets & praises. He's a fraud. Don't fall for his act just because he pretends leftistly.
This ICE detention center is the largest in the country and has become notorious for rampant physical abuse, medical neglect, and death.
We won't let up the pressure until it's shut down for good.
Harper to the judge: "Your driver's license doesn't list your height and weight at birth. It doesn't list where you used to live. It identifies who you are now."
A narrow but important win in Indiana. Cracks in abortion bans start small, then they grow.
SCOOP β Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors.
My report:
He still has the muscle men. I remember Stormy Daniels saying he had men guarding the door who wouldn't let her leave. I think it's possible he still does this when he thinks he can get away with it, if his dick still works.
I think the fact that she married a much older Republican guy helped her get the job. a) Trump knows she'll fuck an older guy and b) her husband contributes big $$. Trump likes money and, now that he's old and weak, probably has a harder time sexually assaulting women & might have to rely on consent
It seems to depend on whether people want to shame others (as rib cage does) & prove they're right or increase vaccination rates. Yelling at people & telling them they're stupid is, as you correctly point out, not going to persuade people to your side!
Lots of trolls joined this site in late 2024 π.
Extremely important thread for Maine Dem primary voters below. Please read!
The mother is an asylum seeker. Her 7-year-old is deaf and didnβt have his hearing aids when he was detained.
Lmao this guy blocked me for debunking his assertion that lots of servicemembers who are not Nazis nonetheless get Nazi tattoos (they don't, esp because they're not permitted).
look ima need white people to stop explaining to me that every white dude is prone to get obvious Nazi tattoos in their 20s. the shit is not true. I know plenty of white military dudes who didnt get Nazi tattoos. This is not a widespread phenomenon.
I served 6 years. Weapons techs in the Navy (FC, GMs, ETs the like) I know not a single person with a Nazi tattoo. I saw rank/ speciality ensigna. I saw lots of questionable barb wire and tribals. This was not common. So yeah you can run a lot of vets without a single Nazi inspired ones.
I know lots of former enlisted. I've met one (out of many!) who got a Nazi tattoo. He knew what it was, did it to survive in prison, was deeply ashamed & got it covered as soon as he could. Your post is apologist bullshit. Why cover for a guy who retweets white supremacists & goes on Nazi podcasts?
the idea that no one could in good faith be concerned about a guy getting a nazi tattoo is disgusting and *extremely harmful to marginalized people.*
like, you know who worries about a candidate with a Nazi tattoo? Jewish people; Black people. people who the Nazis target!
ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. Sheβs married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.
Theyβve already sent her to Louisiana.
New from 404 Media: Proton Mail, the privacy-focused email service, gave authorities data that let the FBI unmask an anonymous 'Stop Cop City' protester. It was payment data linked to the anonymous email account. From that, FBI ID'd them, then tracked their movements www.404media.co/proton-mail-...
It is so damning of US news media that so many outlets refuse to just straight up say that Senator Tim Sheehy assaulted an activist.
He did not "help" Capitol police. They did not need his help. He wanted to assault the guy and did. He should resign.
In his defense, that is an appropriate way to celebrate both Mardi gras and Purim!
Wasn't Trump still angry that Cornyn said Joe Biden won & would be inaugurated? He's maybe still holding a grudge, which led to his not endorsing, which led to this mess for the GOP, hilariously, as you said. Trump is almost always the architect of his own failures. No one else will stand up to him!
"Scott admitted on live television that agents from the illegal cover-up teams who had been moved to CBP were investigating the Pretti killing. But nobody cared. No one said a word to Scott about it. Even Senator Alex Padilla who is in the film, has not said one word. No democrat has said anything."
'UNIMAGINABLE CRUELTY': Judge Gary Brown, a Trump appointeee from NY, thrashes DHS' treatment of a man who came to the US at 9 as an abuse/neglect victim, has no criminal record and became a college grad.

Plenty of people in power believe in trans rights and pursue use of their power to protect them yet are not offered NYT op-ed space to make the case for that opinion as often as anti-trans people are offered the same space. So what's going on there?
War crimes are war crimes no matter who carries them out, no matter the reason.
Human rights are for all humans, even the ones you hate.
Anything else - especially from people sitting in a place of relative privilege and safety - is dehumanization and part of the problem.
NYT says the damage to the hospital was likely from targeting "Network 2", a state-run news outlet.
What NYT DOESN'T say is that targeting civilians, even those who happen to work for state-run TV, is a war crime. I wonder why they didn't want to print that? One can only guess... π
People really struggling with the idea that the Iranian government sucks but we shouldn't be bombing them can both be true, eh?
