  • The Department of Homeland Security Is Demanding That Google Turn Over Information About Random Critics

    Jump

  • Actually, the article states that they delayed handing over any data to give the ACLU time to challenge the subpoena in court, so DHS got the info they were after some other way.

  • Border Patrol agent's texts after he shot a Chicago woman five times will be released, judge rules

    Jump

  • She's not dead. Just FYI.

  • 9-year-old Illinois boy severely burned after TikTok trend inspired him to microwave NeeDoh toy

    Jump

  • There have always been trends, rumors, and dangerous dares, social media didn’t invent that stuff.

    Perhaps not, but they certainly enable such things to spread much faster and further than they would otherwise. And since there's little or no oversight to what people post the harm is never checked. I've repeatedly reported posts on various social media platforms that are advocating fraudulent and/or directly harmful information. None of them have ever been removed as a result of those reports. As long as the content keeps audiences engaged, they refuse to act.

  • Minute Maid is discontinuing frozen juices after 80 years

    Jump

  • I rewatched it a couple years ago for the first time in decades. It holds up surprisingly well for an 80s comedy. The scene where they explain how the futures market works is basically right out of an economics text book. Like, literally. I believe they got an economics professor who wrote one of the most influential text books to consult on those parts of the film.

    If you want a fun chaser, watch Coming To America right after. There's a bit of an easter egg cameo.

  • Shawshank Redemption?

  • Bill and Hillary Clinton agree to testify in House Epstein probe ahead of contempt vote

    Jump

  • There was a lot of speculation that they were daring congress to open a case, which would force the Justice Dept to comply with discovery rules and make all the documents available to their legal team.

  • Don Lemon Taken Into Custody

    Jump

  • I mean... in a sense I kind of agree. Voter apathy largely allows people like Trump to win elections. On the other hand, 64% turnout is among record highs, even for a US presidential election, which traditionally draw the highest voter turnout. There are always people that don't vote. I don't assume that they all don't care or are okay with the results. There are plenty of people who aren't able to vote for a variety of reasons. Some of them because of economic or health limitations. Some of them due to outright voter suppression activity.

    Trump sues IRS and US treasury for $10bn over leak of tax returns

    Jump

  • I'm so glad he's working hard to save us taxpayers money. /s

  • Don Lemon Taken Into Custody

    Jump

  • Not even 2/3rds of the voting population voted. The turnout was 64% of eligible voters. Trump won the popular vote with 49.8% of the votes. That's about 32% of eligible voters that voted for this.

  • Kansas Republicans add bathroom ban to anti-trans proposal, shuffle bills to avoid public hearings

    Jump

  • It’s just kind of annoying that he is probably the most famous trans man,

    Never heard of him before today. My reference point is Elliot Page.

  • Kansas Republicans add bathroom ban to anti-trans proposal, shuffle bills to avoid public hearings

    Jump

  • It's a terrible catch-22 for trans people. Either you use the restroom that conforms to your apparent gender and risk being charged with a crime, or you use the restroom that conforms to your birth gender and risk being harassed or assaulted by others. Honestly, these laws are just an attempt to punish trans people for existing in a public space.

  • Springsteen Releases ‘Streets of Minneapolis,’ a Song Protesting ICE

    Jump

  • In response, Mr. Trump wrote on social media that Mr. Springsteen “ought to KEEP HIS MOUTH SHUT” and called for a “major investigation” into the artist.

    Ah, Trump's typical response to anyone criticizing him.

  • The real meaning of those ICE masks, as blurted out in a WA hearing

    Jump

  • They're worried because they aren't trained well enough to know when they're breaking the law.

  • Stephen Miller iced out of Trump meeting on future of DHS: MS NOW host

    Jump

  • I agree that it sucks our federal leadership doesn't care about the morality of their actions as much as the optics. But sometimes you have to hit them where they'll feel it to get results. If bad polling is what it takes, then I'm on board.

  • Right-wing influencers want women to love ICE

    Jump

  • “Empathy by itself is neutral. Empathy by itself, I believe, is neither good nor bad….But putting yourself in someone’s shoes, feeling what they feel, can also lead you to do three things that I say makes empathy toxic: One, validate lies. Two, affirm sin. And three, support destructive policies.”

    The lack of self-awareness is staggering.

  • Greg Bovino set to leave Minneapolis and could ‘retire’ in wake of Alex Pretti killing, report says

  • That's the minimum, Greg. Do you want to go through life just doing the minimum?
