Unbelievably the video is even better than the story makes out 😂
This is a real thing that happened btw, there’s a video. A cop hears an acorn fall onto his car, he screams and does like 3 somersaults while screaming “SHOTS FIRED” then mag dumps into his own patrol car, narrowly missing the person inside. He then yells “I’M HIT” but he wasn’t.

The U.S. has bombed Somalia at least 86 times this year. Pretty disgusting to call it a “shithouse” as you murder and maim their families.
.@POTUS on Ilhan Omar: "I think she's a sick, very dishonest person who hates our country — and she comes from a country that is essentially not even a country, Somalia. It's a real shithouse."

Two weeks after I posted this there are riots everywhere. This stuff isn’t hard, folks. People like affordable food and fuel. If they don’t get it they get angry. Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose. 🥔🌾📈
It looks like this year we get severe food inflation and the all-out food crisis will come next year. Unless something drastic changes, but that seems unlikely right now. 🌽📈

Among the reasons the U.S. should not do this is the fact that it won't accomplish what advocates promise: stopping Russian missile attacks. If finding & destroying missile launchers was so easy, Iran would not still be able to hit U.S. bases in the ME (which it can).

One of the worst cases of main character syndrome I’ve seen….
Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese just indirectly denounced me as an “online sleuth” for finding and publishing the identity of the far-left terrorist 8 hours before the government announcement.

Utterly incoherent how he goes from Athens, where he denigrated Persia as the eternal Other in a clash with Western "civilization," to this embrace of Samarkand, a city that's wholly bound up in Persian "civilization," if talking about civilizations is so important to you.
Few places on Earth have historically played such an important role in global trade and commerce as Samarkand. It’s an honor to be here today — not just to remember the history, but the opportunities for the future.

An Australian MP Helen Haines was reportedly attacked with a car outside her electorate office on Monday. The driver was known to police. He had a knife in his vehicle and is now facing a mental health assessment. Police called it an isolated incident. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese went on the ABC that evening and blamed social media. Four days earlier, his government tabled the Online Safety Amendment (Digital Duty of Care) Bill. It runs to 90 pages and never once mentions free speech. It fines platforms up to $109.2 million for leaving "harmful" posts up. It fines them nothing for taking too many down. Any platform lawyer can do that math. Communications Minister Anika Wells says the government is not controlling free speech. She said this while introducing a law that forces platforms to delete it. Australia has run this play before. After Bondi, the government demanded footage be scrubbed and pushed new speech rules. The eSafety Commissioner then asked for a power to make platforms act on “pile-ons.” Every attack becomes an argument for more control over what Australians can post. reclaimthenet.org/albanese-b…

Rubio, last week: we are in a civilizational war against Iran. Rubio, today: wow this city in Central Asia with a bunch of Persian architecture sure seems pretty cool, wonder who built it

ICYMI an Israeli company hijacked online ads to track millions of devices and open the door to zero-click spyware, with our nuclear science agency, critical infrastructure and newsrooms compromised. This is a big deal.

“…global energy crisis has yet to peak…”
Qatar warns global energy crisis has yet to peak amid escalating aggression on Iran —— Qatari Deputy Prime Minister Saud bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani warns that the global energy shockwaves stemming from the US-Israeli war on Iran have not yet reached their peak, cautioning that further severe disruptions to international markets, shipping routes, and global economic growth are imminent. Speaking at the Global Security Forum in Doha, he identified the ongoing regional hostilities as a direct threat to West Asian sovereignty and energy supply chains, asserting that the full economic repercussions will unravel "in the coming days and months." According to Al Jazeera, the Qatari defense chief’s statements highlight growing alarm among Gulf producers over prolonged volatility in critical transit corridors. The warning follows months of severe operational strains across regional gas and oil infrastructure, including force majeure declarations on liquid natural gas exports and naval incidents along the Strait of Hormuz.

Don’t be fooled by Opposition Leader Kellie Sloane’s weak complaints about the government's gun buyback. While the Liberals pretend to oppose "blunt" buybacks, their track record proves they are all talk and no action when it comes to defending your freedoms. They promise temporary freezes and review commissions, yet time and again they sell out law-abiding firearm owners when the political pressure rises. In stark contrast, true champions of shooting rights like former Senator David Leyonhjelm and MLC John Ruddick have always stood unwavering against government overreach. They don't compromise on personal liberty or property rights. The Libertarians know that vetted, licensed shooters are not the cause of crime, and targeting them does zero to keep our streets safe. If you want a representative who will genuinely defend law-abiding firearm owners instead of offering politically convenient soundbites, make your voice heard at the ballot box. We will stop the buyback and make government buybacks illegal. Support real freedom and vote for Gemma Noiosi at the March 2027 NSW state election!

We Jews have no right to steal even one centimeter of our ancestral homeland from the people already living there, much less to expel them, mass murder them, erase them.
Replying to @RabbiMivasair
Jews have the right to live safely in their ancestral homeland. Simple.

In 1944 Hitler ordered Paris leveled. All of the major landmarks and infrastructure were wired to be blown to smithereens as the Allies approached the city. A disobedient general kept the orders being executed. Stop it with this crap.
Hitler said he would never bomb Paris because it was architecturally beautiful. However, 3rd worlders have no sense of beauty and destroyed hundreds of years of history in just a few weeks
Community note
Hitler visited Paris in 1940 and was impressed by its beauty. In 1944 however he ordered the city destroyed if it could not be held directing that the Allies should find only a field of ruins. The German governor Dietrich von Choltitz refused to destroy it. smithsonianmag.com/history/during… prospectmagazine.co.uk/society/40067/
