Why was this story on the front page of the UK’s Daily Telegraph — but NOT America’s leading newspapers?

They didn’t have “marital problems,” your son was an abuser who felt he should own her therefore could take her life.

Oof ouch, but: yep

These nine firms all failed a high-stakes character test. … We hope that clients looking for fearless attorneys and law students deciding where to work will remember which elite firms were unwilling to fight back. Meekness is not a quality most people seek in a lawyer.

Trump enjoys killing little girls. May he and his enablers face a just reckoning soon.

My colleague got into Trump's sprawling family detention camp, which is full of toddlers, kids, & teens.

- Kids have cut themselves or talked about suicide

-There's worms & mold in food

-300 kids have been held for 30+ days, far longer court settlement allows

The last time he started talking like this, his allies minimized the risks and we ended up with January 6. This time we must take him literally and seriously. These comments are a five-alarm fire for democracy. In a functioning republic, he would be impeached and removed from office today.

The 6 richest men in the world are all Trump allies.

They control your algorithms and data on X, TikTok, Twitch, Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp, Threads, and YouTube.

Just in case you’re wondering why more isn’t done to stop right-wing bots and misinformation on social media.

25 years ago today, SCOTUS elected George W Bush president of the United States by blocking completion of a voting canvass in Florida. A subsequent canvass by the Associated Press showed that Bush's rival, Al Gore, had won the race in Florida—and thus the contest for the presidency—by 700 votes.

They don't have to ban vaccines outright. They can just force people to jump through enough hoops to get vaccines that they eventually stop trying and give up.

Women Who Have Abortions Would Face Decades in Prison Under South Carolina Plan Women who get abortions could spend decades in prison and IUDs would be outlawed under proposed legislation in South Carolina.

Women who have abortions would face decades in prison and IUDs would be banned under a South Carolina bill that state lawmakers will consider during a hearing on Tuesday.

It's the most extreme proposal any state has considered since the 2022 Dobbs ruling.

Republicans in charge of Congress have abdicated all responsibility for governing the nation to Trump. There are no checks. There are no balances. No Kings.

At some point people need to learn that the poverty rate is mostly about the safety net or lack thereof and not the economy. The economy was doing historically well, real wages rising for the first time in decades, etc. And poverty rose because pandemic safety policies expired.

Gupta: It is safe. That’s what the best-quality research shows. And how irresponsible, using the podium of the WH to put this out there when you’re not even offering an alternative. That is dangerous. An untreated fever is dangerous. Untreated pain in pregnancy is dangerous.

“During her eight years at Fulatari camp …– a refuge for those fleeing Boko Haram – six of her 13 children have died. …her most recent loss was in March, just days after a US-funded nutrition program that had provided therapeutic food packets to her malnourished twins was abruptly halted.”

I deactivated my Facebook when it gave me an actual notification inviting me to join their Dating service, enticing me (GenX) with pictures of three young women adjacent to my network.

One of them was my buddy's nineteen year old daughter I was present for the birth of.

PedoCon theory abides.

Parents outraged as Meta uses photos of schoolgirls in ads targeting man Exclusive: Instagram pictures of girls as young as 13 were posted to promote Threads site ‘as bait’, campaigner says

“Meta has used back-to-school pictures of schoolgirls to advertise one of its social media platforms to a 37-year-old man, in a move parents described as “outrageous” and “upsetting.”

Meta has 100% stopped even *pretending* not to be astoundingly evil.
