Democratic Gov. Maura Healey was met with applause and smiles as she signed away Massachusetts' gestational limits on abortion, making the deep-blue state the 10th to permit the procedure up to birth.
Under the Prioritizing Patient Access to Care Act, health care workers will have greater discretion in determining whether to perform an abortion later in pregnancy, without facing legal penalties under the state's previous restrictions.
Healey said the law is intended to ensure families facing medical complications late in pregnancy can abort their babies in Massachusetts rather than having to travel out of state. Those complications can include maternal health complications and fatal diagnoses.
During the bill signing, Healey pledged to keep abortion safe, legal and accessible in Massachusetts for as long as she remains governor.
Oh, they dropped the "rare" and replaced it with "accessible," meaning "convenient."
Which is the opposite of "rare." 7-Elevens are not rare.
"We believe that health care decisions should be made between women and families and their doctors, not politicians," Healey said. "Abortion will remain safe. It will remain legal, and it will remain accessible here in Massachusetts. That's my commitment to you."
The bill is scheduled to take effect in 90 days. Previously, state law generally prohibited abortions after 24 weeks, with limited exceptions.
Massachusetts now joins Alaska, Colorado, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon and Vermont in removing gestational age limits on abortion, along with the District of Columbia.
...
SBA Pro-Life America President Marjorie Dannenfelser condemned the signing of the "egregious" law in a statement Monday, arguing that late-term abortions can involve dismemberment of the fetus.
Fox News is so liberal. There is no "can" here. Late-term abortions must involve dismembering and decapitating the baby, because the baby is now too large to pass through the birth canal without an actual birth.
"It should shock the conscience that tens of thousands of unborn Americans are barbarically dismembered limb by limb and torn apart every single year," she said. "Sadly, that number will only increase with Gov. Healey's approval of the Abortion Up Until Birth Bill. The GOP must abandon the 'leave it to the states' position -- a stance that permits egregious late-term abortion laws like this one -- and advance national protections for unborn children."
...
The other countries that allow such procedures include Australia, Canada, China, Guinea-Bissau, Mexico, South Korea and Vietnam, according to SBA.

Abdulrahman El-Sayed: My Obligation Is to Follow Sharia Law Until the Day I Die

We may have lost Francesca, but we still have Abdulrahman.
Revealed: El-Sayed Proclaimed 'Obligation' To Follow Sharia Law Until the Day He Dies
'When I die and I stand before God ... I don't want to say I did it the easy way instead of the Shariah-compliant way,' El-Sayed told the New York Times in 2009
Andrew Kerr and Jessica Schwalb
Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed once declared his sacred "obligation" to follow Sharia law in every aspect of his life until he meets his maker on the day he dies, according to unearthed comments he made to the New York Times in 2009 as a young man buying his first home.
"Ultimately, the question is, when I die and I stand before God and go through everything I did in my life, I don't want to say I did it the easy way instead of the Shariah-compliant way. Not because of fear but because of obligation," said El-Sayed, who the Times identified at the time as a 24-year-old medical student and Rhodes scholar who had just taken out a "Sharia-compliant" mortgage to purchase a $123,000 condominium in Ann Arbor.
Sharia, or Islamic religious law, sets strict rules for living that include harsh restrictions on women and gruesome, medieval-era forms of criminal justice. Sharia law also prohibits the paying or earning of interest, a restriction that has led some banks to offer special mortgages for devout Muslims, like El-Sayed, which tack onto the principal what a typical borrower would pay in interest across the life of the loan.
The young El-Sayed's expression of lifelong devotion to Sharia law takes new meaning following his narrow primary victory last week and raises the question of how much Sharia law continues to guide him.
El-Sayed has played a delicate balancing act on the campaign trail when it comes to his personal faith. While he has embraced his status as a Muslim man before voters, the progressive Democrat often frames his faith in broad brush strokes to avoid specifics. In October 2025, for example, El-Sayed told Religion News Service that his faith "orients me to try and be a better person" and to "treat people -- all people -- with dignity and humanity and respect."
But El-Sayed has bristled when pressed on the topic of Sharia law. During his failed 2018 campaign for Michigan governor, El-Sayed denied ever saying he was "Sharia-compliant" during an interview with the Jewish conservative journalist Laura Loomer--a strong critic of Islam--before cutting the interview short and scolding his staff for not stopping it sooner.
El-Sayed also rejected allegations that he intended to subvert the Constitution and implement Sharia law. A documentary about his 2018 gubernatorial bid shows him telling the filmmakers not to shoot a bookshelf in his home that contained the Quran and controversial works about Islam, including Cutting the Fuse, a 2010 book that argues that suicidal terrorism is driven by foreign military occupation, not Islamic extremism.
El-Sayed's private bookshelf also contained a copy of A Thematic Commentary on the Qur'an written by Muslim Brotherhood member Sheikh Mohammed al-Ghazali, who said "the refusal of implemenation [sic] of sharia is apostasy" as he testified in defense of 13 Islamic terrorists who had gunned down an Egyptian professor who called for the separation of church and state in Egypt. Al-Ghazali testified during the 1993 trial that the slain professor was "without doubt" an infidel and said most Islamic scholars would agree that such apostates should be killed, but that he personally believes the professor should have received a life sentence instead, the Washington Post reported.
"You're going to want to not get these things in the shot," El-Sayed said in the documentary, How To Fix A Primary, as he pointed to his bookshelf which contained al-Ghazali's writings. "We're trying to keep the shot secular."
It's all taqiyya all the time.
...
El-Sayed is also heavily invested in so-called Sharia-compliant investment funds managed by Amana Mutual Funds, whose late cofounder and chairman, Yaqub Mirza, was identified in a 1988 FBI memo as one of several "members and leaders of the IKHWAN," which is shorthand for the Muslim Brotherhood. El-Sayed reported in his latest financial disclosure that he and his wife own between $150,000 and $425,000 in Amana's funds, which excludes investments in companies that earn more than 5 percent of their revenue from "haram sources" including interest, gambling, alcohol, tobacco, pornography, and pork.
In 2002, federal antiterrorism agents raided Mirza's home as part of a wider antiterror operation against the Safa Group, a cluster of Islamic entities based in Virginia, the Wall Street Journal and Washington Post reported. No charges were filed, and Amana Funds itself was spared serious scrutiny during the probe, according to a local report.
Scott Jennings notes something it's hard to miss: these foreign anchor-babies sure do seem to hate football and holidays and fireworks and all the little details of basic
normie American culture.
Why it's almost as if they seek to overthrow it and replace American culture with their own shithole country foreign "culture."

@overton_news
The CNN panel didn't like hearing it, but Scott Jennings went ahead and said it anyway.
Jennings says the attacks on American holidays from socialist candidates like Francesca Hong and Abdul El-Sayed are actually a window into something much deeper.
And when Kaitlan Collins tried to downplay El-Sayed's comments about July 4th, Jennings fired right back.
The communists can no longer hide their hatred of America and all of its traditions.
JENNINGS: "When you're so crazy that Bernie Sanders and AOC won't even endorse you, you're pretty far out there!"
"I think these holiday conversations are actually valuable."
"She hates Thanksgiving. Today, our own k-file here at CNN uncovered the fact that over in Michigan, Abdul El-Sayed wants to get rid of the 4th of July."
"And I think the reason these things..."
COLLINS: "I think he said we should get rid of fireworks."
JENNINGS: "He was very critical of the 4th of July."
COLLINS: "Getting rid of fireworks is different than getting rid of the 4th of July."
JENNINGS: "I think you're downplaying the message..."
"I think these are windows into the souls of these anti-American, radical communists."
"If you hate Thanksgiving and you hate the 4th of July, what you're really saying is I hate some of the pillars that undergird American culture."
"And how are you going to have a conversation with a voter about affordability or public safety or anything else, if you're trying to get rid of Thanksgiving and the 4th of July?"
"I mean, if I was Christmas and Easter I wouldn't be feeling too comfortable right now if these people win!"

After Polls Predicted a 97% Chance of a Double-Digit Victory for Francesca Hong, Missing USB Drives and Late Ballot Shenanigans Hand the Establishment Candidate the "Win"

The also leftwing candidate, Crowley, actually abandoned the race but re-entered it after Establishment types insisted he get back in to stop Hong. He wound up "winning" by around 3000 votes out of more than half a million.
I keep clicking on articles to see if there's an update showing that Hong won.
Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley narrowly upset Democratic socialist Francesca Hong in Wisconsin's Democratic gubernatorial primary Tuesday night, despite polls showing Hong in front by double-digits in the final stretch before polling day.
Crowley's campaign said the 37-year-old state legislator and member of the Democratic Socialists of America called Crowley early Wednesday to concede the race. Hong trailed her rival by more than 3,200 votes out of more than 787,000 ballots cast as of 6 a.m. ET., a margin of 0.41 percentage points.
Under Wisconsin law, Hong could have requested a recount since she trailed by under one percentage point, but would have had to pay for it since her deficit was greater than 0.25 percentage points. State law does not provide for automatic recounts in close races.
She chose not to. I think, in the end, she wanted to lose the primary, because that allows her to continue on as an agitator and podcast goon. Had she won the primary and then been blown out in the general, she'd be excluded by the whole rotten Democrat Party, including the socialists, who need to pretend they're #Winning.
Crowley, 40, was the late choice of Wisconsin's Democratic establishment after Lt. Gov Sara Rodriguez and her predecessor Mandela Barnes dropped out of the race in recent weeks. Crowley had initially dropped out and endorsed Rodriguez last month, but re-entered the race in an effort to stop Hong after Barnes quit.
...
Crowley, who will face GOP Rep. Tom Tiffany in the November general election, would be the Badger State's first ever black governor.
Hong immediately endorsed the guy who cheated to beat her because she has a Coward's Heart.
But that doesn't stop us from crying #RiggedElection on her behalf.

The AI bubble is a thing to behold, and its scale beggars belief. The question underlying the insane AI build-out is not whether AI is useful - it is, at least for some things - or whether AI is overhyped - it is - but whether AI can pay. Can these investments bring in enough money to payy off the bonds, in time for it to matter? The amounts of money being funneled into AI capacity is truly staggering, and all of it ultimately rests on the answer to the question of "can it pay" being a resounding yes. As the scale increases and the dollars fly, the risks grow in tandem and the odds of a bigger problem increase. While all of AI is bubbly, the behavior of the AI mega-players called hyperscalers is the easiest to examine.
The hyperscalers are the ones building the gigantic datacenters and spending trillions on huge AI capacity and training new models - and promising to spend trillions more. The idea is that they will sell this capacity on through services at a price high enough and at sufficient volume in time to make it pay enough to cover the bonds - and position the company properly before the next major refresh when they have to upgrade. This depends on demand, prices and nobody coming up with a way to do it cheaper. There are very real risks and the Big Five hyperscalers - Alphabet (Google), Amazon, Microsoft, Meta and Oracle - are spending so much on this that it threatens not just the overall enterprise, but the wider economy. The amounts involved are so huge that they're playing accounting games to enable it to continue.
There are a number of examples. The new datacenters being built are interesting in their own right, as it is often difficult to determine who is paying for them. Many of these new datacenters don't have the company's name on the door. Or the paperwork. Or the balance sheet. These data centers are being built through "special-purpose vehicles," or SPVs. Datacenter SPVs are standalone psuedo-corporations created to finance, build and sometimes operate a datacenter on behalf of its actual owner. For example, take a deal called Beignet, the SPV building a new Meta datacenter in Louisiana. Meta owns 20% of the SPV, and put up $1.3 billion. Private equity outfit Blue Owl put up $3 billion and owns 80% of the SPV. Combined, they put up around 14% of the total $30 billion cost of the build-out, with the rest financed by bonds issued by the SPV and purchased in bulk by investment funds like PIMCO. Meta will lease most of the Beignet datacenter from Blue Owl, who will take the lease payments to pay the coupons to bondholders and dividends to itself and its minority partner who is also the primary tenant.
Why the complicated structure? Accounting tricks. Continuing with Beignet as an example, take a worst-case scenario where the SPV fails. If that happens, the majority owner - Blue Owl - will sell off everything it can to pay back bondholders. This will inevitably result in a gap. If Beignet were a normal enterprise, that results in a "haircut" - the bondholders lose the difference. If it were a normal enterprise, it would also have to pay ruinous interest rates to finance a high-risk and high-complexity scheme. But it isn't a normal enterprise, and it gets to issue investment-grade bonds. Why? Because Meta is backstopping it. If Beignet fails and is liquidated and the bondholders are not made whole, Meta puts up the difference. The complicated structure lets the SPV borrow at blue-chip rates and - most importantly - allows the blue chip with the risk exposure to hold that exposure off its balance sheet to maintain that rating while burning through capital at alarming rates. Meta is ultimately on the hook for the bond issue, but Meta also gets to exclude the massive liability from its balance sheet.
If that seems extremely suspicious, it's because it is. It's a vast game of hide-the-risk - but hiding the risk doesn't make it go away, and no amount of wishful thinking or accounting tricks can change that. And it's a very, very big problem. Last year, the hyperscalers issued $121 billion in new debt. That sounds like a lot, but this year, the total issuance is on pace to quadruple that as Morgan-Stanley (via Forbes) estimates $570 billion issuance. And the Big Five hyperscalers are holding, by some estimates, around $1.5 trillion dollars' worth of debt off their balance sheets. And people are finally noticing. From a piece of Bloomberg coverage:
"The accounting treatment itself is in fashion. But what if one of these companies was a house of cards and was propping itself up with this accounting treatment?" said Tom Selling, technical accounting consultant. "To me, that's the risk."
Indeed, but it ignores the obvious question: why bother with this complex accounting treatment otherwise? The stated argument is along the lines of, "there will be other tenants involved, too, not just us, so it makes sense" but that's a much weaker argument than the obvious one of "to hide risk."
"If we just looked at the financial statements, we would be more or less short sighted: missing liabilities, missing obligations, missing key elements of these structures that really truly represent the economics," Gonzales said.
Investors have to dig through disclosures attached to corporate financial statements to find details on the off-balance sheet structures and how each firm accounts for those arrangements and any related obligations.
The information is there, but finding it requires more work than if Meta, for example, borrowed directly to finance the build out, said Gil Luria, head of technology research for D.A. Davidson & Co.
"Enron's crime wasn't having special purpose vehicles. Enron's crime was hiding them," Luria said.
Yes, SPVs aren't illegal. But at this scale and with corporations this hypothetically rich and credit-worthy backstopping them, they are a red flag.
And that scale is another part of the reason. Nobody can afford this. It is getting into nation-state levels of capital and debt expenditure and even the mighty hyperscalers can't pay for their bets, especially as the market for AI bonds appears to be softening. Between known on-balance-sheet debt and estimated off-balance-sheet debt, the Big Five hyperscalers have racked up almost $2.5 trillion in debt so far. Alphabet (Google) plays the hide-the-risk game comparatively little and most of its debt is on its balance sheet and because of that, its accounting is easier to understand - and it is also is in negative free cash flow for the first time since going public as its capital expenditures exceed its cashflows. How many of its fellow hyperscalers are in the same situation, with the reality hidden off the balance sheet?
The answer to the basic AI question of "can it pay" will have profound consequences not just for the hyperscalers, but for the wider economy.
Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley beat Democratic socialist Francesca Hong in a come-from-behind victory during the Wisconsin gubernatorial primary Tuesday night.
Crowley, 40, was ahead of the 37-year-old state representative and member of the Democratic Socialists of America 39.8% to 39.4% when the race was called by the Associated Press at 3:34 a.m.
Surveys ahead of the Badger State Democratic contest had consistently showed Hong besting Crowley by double digit percentage points. Crowley had also dropped out of the race weeks before and even endorsed another opponent, before re-entering the contest and receiving the backing of outgoing Gov. Tony Evers.
Hong who hates Israel, white people, and not merely Thanksgiving but what it represents, family, America that encompass its history, society, culture and traditions. Then again, in whole or in part this is what the Democrats en masse are all about. In their two century-long desire for absolute power they have embraced and endorsed any and every crackpot and in so doing have placed an absolute stranglehold on several key states and more crucially institutions of our government and private sector that have kept them in power all this time, primarily academia and the media.
So the question is, is Hong's defeat merely because the party and electorate see her as politically/tactically toxic during an election or that what she believes does not align with what it and they believe. My fear is that if the latter were the case, how in the world could she and all the others of her ilk have ever gotten as far as they have politically? Well, they couldn't. And yet here we are as a nation and society. Since yesterday was an open primary in Wisconsin I and my fellow Wisconsinites had the opportunity to vote for either party, and since Tom Tiffany was a shoe-in to win in the GOP, I'm wondering how many of my fellow sane republican Wisconsinites voted on the Democrat line for Crowley to pull a sort of Operation Chaos a la Limbaugh? I just realized that maybe this might not have been such a great idea as having Hong as a candidate might make our side complacent and as Dems vote for whoever has the D after their name regardless of who it is could spell disaster come November. Oh well, fellow Dairy Staters and everyone please weigh in.
Host Peter Alexander said, “There’s a conversation happening among Democrats, and I’m sure a lot of people sitting listening to this conversation right now, who have these real concerns about the sort of divide they’re experiencing within the party between the more progressive candidates and the more moderate, more centrist candidates. The fear is that ultimately it may cost the party some seats, some governors’ mansions. You saw that Abdul El-Sayed, someone you supported, obviously won what was a really close race against a more moderate Senate candidate in the state of Michigan. Right now in Wisconsin, Francesca Hong is facing some similar concerns.” He asked, “What do you make of that concern, and how do you satisfy those more centrist Democrats and independent-minded folks, in states like your own right now, who are having that real debate within their own head?” Ellison said, “I think the debate is great. I think it’s an important debate to have. Democratic, ‘big D’ Democrats are being democratic ‘small D,’ meaning that we’re debating ideas.
From coast-to-coast, voters on the left are turning to the DSA (Democratic Socialists of America) to lead them to the promised land. For them, of course, the promised land is communism.
Not surprisingly, the DSA candidates usually run under the Democrat banner. Democrats and communists have always been soul mates.
In 1948, Henry A. Wallace, who had been FDR’s vice president from 1941 to 1945, ran for president under the Progressive Party banner. The Progressive Party was hard left and strongly aligned with, and supported by, the Communist Party of America. Wallace received 2.4% of the vote. Unfortunately, today’s communists (costumed in DSA clothing behind the Democrat curtain) are getting ten times that.
But don’t call them communists! Ask Democrats or DSA members, and they’ll vehemently deny they’re communists. The DSA will assert, “We’re not communists, we’re docialists. BIG difference!” Really? And Democrats often won’t even agree that they’re socialists, despite having mirror image policies.
Speaking of Rush Limbaugh, as the late great Maha Rushie of blessed memory once observed, When the Left promises paradise on earth and free everything, it's impossible to run against Santa Claus and beat him. The irony there of course is the Left's preternatural hatred of everything Christian, but the analogy is nevertheless spot on.
But of course, a lot of people are going to have to be liquidated and the past 250 years of our unique "exceptional" history completely erased in order for their fever dreams to be realized
Abolish The Police, Seize The Corporations, Erase The Borders This is the DSA platform Democrats don’t want you to read.
While some in the Democrat Party are freaking out over the freaks like Hong there they are running and ins some cases like Mamdani winning. Yes the entirety of the Wisconsin populace cannot be compared to that of NYC as a whole. But there's Keith Ellison, who unlike a John Fetterman or even a Chuck Schumer is eager to embrace the overt Commies. Of course so long as they have a D next to their name, Democrats must vote for that candidate.
Speaking of Paradise on Earth — elsewhere in the world, as Iran continues to be a festering boil on the world's backside, let me just state for the record that President Trump and Israel's combined effort so far to prevent these fiends from obtaining nuclear weapons and initiating armageddon as the precursor to permanent global Islamic domination, was absolutely necessary to the safety and security of the world.
Pakistan’s Defence Minister Khawaja Asif has called for Islamic nations to set aside their differences and join Islamabad’s defence agreement with Saudi Arabia and Turkey to form a military alliance along the lines of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO). Talking to Geo News, Asif said the Mecca Joint Defence Agreement shouldn’t be an ‘exclusive club’ and urged Islamic nations to put their difference aside and join the pact. . . “I think that, along the lines of NATO, Muslim countries should put their own differences aside–the transactional issues or bilateral disputes they have with one another — and stand together on this one platform,” he added. . .
. . . Pakistan is the world’s primary enforcer of Islamic blasphemy laws. It’s a state sponsor of terrorism, holds an estimated 170 nuclear warheads, and is steadily modernizing its arsenal. Its longest-range operational missile is the Shaheen 3, which can hit targets up to 1,709 miles. Saudi Arabia is the location of Mecca and Medina, Islam’s holiest cities. Turkey is “the new Iran,” a Muslim Brotherhood-supporting nation with revanchist aims. Recently, Greek MEP Afroditi Latinopoulou rightly warned that “pretending Turkey is still a reliable ally is not a strategy. It is dangerous self-delusion.”
Her nearly 300-page study examines an English-language Islamic Studies curriculum spanning Grades 1 through 12, published by Darussalam and supplemented by other widely circulated educational texts. Rather than approaching Islamic education through sociological generalizations or newspaper accounts of radicalization, she examines what children themselves encounter: textbooks, exercises, religious stories, prescribed behavior, Quranic passages, accounts of Mohammed and his companions, and the material that is emphasized, softened, postponed, or omitted. The result is one of the more important studies of Islamic education to appear in recent years.
With any luck I'll be dead and not have to worry about anything more than having my tombstone desecrated.
But at least Hong has been sidelined, at least for now so on that bit of positive news, I bid you all to
El-Sayed’s past remarks could become a focal point in the state’s general election. As Michigan is a swing state, many voters are likely to find El-Sayed’s extreme-left views off-putting.

His nomination demonstrates the ongoing shift to the left within the Democrat Party and the mainstreaming of anti-American sentiment.

The world of women’s cycling is currently embroiled in a bizarre scandal involving the alleged use of bra padding to increase the bust area of female competitors and modify airflow around the body. Known as “chest fairing,” the controversial practice can allegedly decrease drag and give competitors an unfair advantage during races.
According to experts, a smaller bust can favor the formation of a kind of “air pocket” at the level of the cyclist’s abdomen, which marginally increases the drag coefficient. For example, Bert Blocken, professor of aerodynamics at Heriot-Watt University (Scotland), told the British newspaper The Telegraph that chest fairing could provide a reduction of up to 3.6% in drag.
***
Originally reported last month by Dutch newspaper “WielerFlits,” the chest fairing trend caused quite a scandal on the women’s cycling circuit, and on August 4th, the cyclists taking part in this year’s Tour de France underwent an additional check of their clothing. It’s unclear if the checks uncovered the use of breast padding, but it’s clear that organizers aim to discourage the practice.
The waiting list for that job must be kinda long

Bad news for those of you who travel with a humanoid
United Airlines and Delta Air Lines have joined a growing list of carriers prohibiting passengers from transporting humanoid robots on their aircraft, extending restrictions to both cabin baggage and checked luggage. The policies come as airlines respond to the emergence of increasingly lifelike robots that present operational, safety, and handling challenges not addressed by traditional baggage rules.
The updated restrictions distinguish humanoid robots from conventional consumer electronics and small robotic devices. While toy robots and other electronic devices that meet existing battery requirements generally remain permitted, human-like robots are specifically prohibited regardless of their intended use. The move follows similar action by Southwest Airlines earlier this year after a highly publicized incident involving a humanoid robot traveling on a commercial flight.

Soon-to-Be Guest on Tuq'r Qarlson, Abdulrahman El-Sayed, Hates Fireworks, Thinks Football is Racist Toxic Masculinity, and Generally Hates All Things About the Country His Parents Chose to Bear Their Anchor-Baby In
'Fireworks suck': Removed El-Sayed videos urged getting rid of the 4th of July tradition, raised replacing 2nd Amendment
Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed once asked his YouTube viewers whether Americans could "PLEASE" find another way to celebrate the Fourth of July, in a video promising four reasons "why fireworks suck."
The since-removed video from July 2024 included a chapter titled "Fireworks just aren't worth it: hear us out" and cited Detroit's post-fireworks air quality, the chemicals used in fireworks, their potential to trigger PTSD in veterans, and the risks they pose to children and pets.
The video is one of several examples of El-Sayed removing past online content as he seeks elected office. As CNN's KFile previously reported, he also deleted social media posts supporting the "defund the police" movement.
In other since-removed clips, El-Sayed argued that the southern border was not among Americans' five biggest concerns and lambasted Republicans for focusing on it. In another he floated replacing the Second Amendment's right to bear arms with a constitutional right to health care.
Not all of El-Sayed's commentary has In one episode that remains online, he questioned whether football could be "ethical" or "safe" and linked the sport's "ethos" to narratives used to justify slavery and westward expansion.
...
The YouTube videos, at least 100 of which appear to have been made private, are another example of how El-Sayed's years as a prolific podcaster, commentator and social-media user have left behind an extensive record -- some of it subsequently deleted -- that Republicans could use to portray him as both ideologically left-wing and culturally out of step with swing-state voters.
...
Many of the removed videos on YouTube, where El-Sayed at the time had more than 17,000 subscribers, are not publicly available anymore, but CNN reviewed transcripts archived before the videos were made private.
El-Sayed's fireworks video was briefly interrupted by a message noting that it was sponsored in part by the Marguerite Casey Foundation. In reading ads for the foundation on his "America Dissected" podcast, he highlighted what he called its "cutting-edge areas of scholarship," including "feminist prison abolition."
Prison abolition is a movement that seeks to reduce and ultimately replace prisons, jails, and other punitive systems with approaches intended to address the social conditions linked to harm, including investments in housing, healthcare, education, community-based safety, and restorative or transformative justice. Feminist prison abolitionists argue that incarceration and policing can fail to prevent gender-based violence and may disproportionately harm women and marginalized communities.

Portland Police arrested an occupant of the infamous "Red House" last week following a home raid over reports that William Kinney III allegedly threatened to kill employees and contractors working on a project next door. Kinney, a 41-year-old convicted felon with an extensive criminal history, was booked into jail August 4 on charges including possession of a short-barreled rifle, five counts of felon in possession of a firearm, and three counts of being a felon in possession of body armor, records show.
The Red House was at the center of a violent Antifa-Black Lives Matter autonomous zone in 2020, where far-left demonstrators erected borders and barricades to prevent the eviction of the Kinneys, a black Indigenous family who had been squatting at the home.
During the home raid, authorities recovered a cache of weapons, including a KelTec 9mm rifle in the living room, and three rifles and a shotgun in the bedroom, according to a probable cause affidavit obtained by The Oregonian. Additionally, police seized a stockpile of ammunition and three sets of body armor. Kinney is forbidden from possessing firearms and body armor as a convicted felon.
Records show Kinney was released from the Multnomah County Jail after posting a low $25,000 bail. He reportedly harassed and threatened to shoot contractors working on the nonprofit Self Enhancement Inc.'s property next to the home, which sparked the raid. Kinney reportedly made threats for several consecutive months and threw stones at contractors in July before threatening a drive-by shooting, per the affidavit.
Another Trans Cult? 7-Year-Old Victim Was Groomed to Be Trans Before He Was Found Tortured to Death
William Evans-Ellis was brought up in a trans group where he played a key role as a shared child for all the 'moms.' A Ngo Comment investigation found what they wanted his future to be.
Andy Ngo
Is there another trans cult?
A woman and two men who identify as trans have been charged in Cincinnati, Ohio in the brutal torture and murder of a young special-needs boy. A Ngo Comment investigation found that the group, which included at least three men who identify as trans, had groomed the child into trans ideology from a very young age and appeared to have plans to transition him before police found him unresponsive in a closet, bound with duct tape and showing signs of torture.
William Michael Evans-Ellis, 7, was recovered from an apartment in the Oakley neighborhood in Cincinnati on Aug. 6. He suffered injuries consistent with being choked and held underwater, beaten and burned. A detective testified in court that it was one of the most disturbing child abuse cases he had ever investigated.
The child was found with "a number of injuries that would indicate physical beatings, blunt force injuries," he said.
Kaitlin Elizabeth Evans, 38, who is charged, is the child's biological mother. The two other suspects are biological men who identify as women: "Kirby" Rankin (prior name: Nathan Rankin), 33, and "Nessa" Keaney (prior name: Adamhnán Judaydon Caoilte Lugh Keaney), 23. The three lived together as a polycule and "co-parented" the child to death.
They are charged with murder and child endangerment.
Liberal and legacy media have repeatedly reported that "three women" were charged. This follows a pattern of media outlets obscuring or omitting the trans identities of accused killers and convicted killers in an effort to protect transgenderism. The same pattern occurred in the news media coverage of the Zizian trans death cult.
The boy's biological father, "Tara Jane" Evans-Ellis, 38, who was not charged, also identifies as trans. He married Evans in 2011. His real name is Thomas John (T.J.) Ellis, but he legally changed it to "Tara" in December 2023.
He works as a software engineer in cybersecurity and identifies as autistic and antifa, similar to many of the Zizian members I've reported on. (There is no suggestion Ellis is linked to the Zizians.)
The couple had a second, trans-themed wedding for "Tara" and his wife in 2025. Their child was put in a dress at the ceremony, according to a source with knowledge.
Thomas John Ellis before and after his 2023 transition into 'Tara Jane.'
An analysis of Ellis' social media record reveals a disturbing history of posts showing he was part of that group and that they were influencing the child to become trans.
Active on Mastodon, a Twitter-like social media platform popular with leftists, Ellis posted Antifa propaganda, radical queer activist material, said he was a DSA member and dabbled with the trans furry subculture--similar to Charlie Kirk assassin suspect's trans lover, Lance Twiggs.
On the other hand: A lot of "cops" hired for DEI reasons need to be shitcanned.

It's almost as if they want the Secret Service's methods revealed so that foreign assassins will be better able to kill the president.
President Trump's secret plane switch in Turkey is putting Air Force One's security protocols and defensive capabilities in the spotlight.
Why it matters: Air Force One is the call sign for any Air Force aircraft carrying the president, meaning Trump's secret switch didn't change the designation -- but it changed the plane protecting him.
Driving the news: A threat from Iran forced Trump to secretly switch planes, using a catering truck to move to a smaller aircraft, per the Washington Post.
Trump flew to Turkey on a plane gifted by Qatar, which was meant to serve as Air Force One. Officials said he would return on an older presidential plane because of security concerns, per multiple reports,
After boarding the older plane, Trump moved to a smaller Air Force C-32A, according to the reports. All three planes flew to the U.K., where Trump joined the Qatari plane and flew home.
Good, so now Iranian assassins know that the Secret Service uses attending vehicles, like catering trucks or supply trucks, to secret move principles.
Well done, Washington Post. You're great patriots for Iran.
There was yet another plan to murder Trump, launched by a foreign enemy terrorist regime.

Author of 2024 Democrat Autopsy Says That Crucial Section Was Suppressed by the DNC -- A Chapter Accusing Democrats of Being Greedy and Self-Serving and Putting Their Quest for "Generational Wealth" Above the Fortunes of the Party
The author of the report, Paul Rivera, says he's lying.
Author of Democrats' 2024 Autopsy Says Party Left Out Key Chapter
A dispute over the chapter between the author and the Democratic National Committee has added to the party's turmoil as it tries to look forward, not backward.
By Shane Goldmacher
After months of resistance, the Democratic National Committee finally relented this May and published a draft of its autopsy of what had gone wrong in the 2024 election, saying it was releasing the unfinished document "in its entirety" in the interest of transparency.
But, according to the man who wrote the autopsy, there was a missing chapter.
The chapter raised pointed questions that were notably absent from the draft that the party put out, both about President Joseph R. Biden Jr.'s ill-fated decision to run for re-election and the sway of an operative class that had become "generationally wealthy off politics" while steering Democratic strategy.
Paul Rivera, the author of the autopsy, provided the chapter to The New York Times and spoke publicly for the first time about the party's efforts to analyze its 2024 losses. Both he and party officials agreed that the process had been messy and at times contentious. He said that the draft released by the party had been compiled from work he submitted in November and December.
But he said that the draft omitted a chapter titled "What Happened in 2024," which he said he had printed out and placed in a three-ring binder that he personally handed to the party's chairman, Ken Martin, in January.
Mr. Martin sharply disputed that account, denying in a written statement that he was ever provided with the missing chapter.
"That is false," Mr. Martin said. "This alleged report section was not in any binder I reviewed." He added, "If we had this in May, we would have released it with the rest of the report." He declined a request to be interviewed.
The disputed "What Happened" chapter addressed several politically delicate subjects that were not included in the draft the party published in May:
It questioned Mr. Biden's decision to seek re-election in the first place: "Is there a single point of failure for 2024? Perhaps it is a decision of the President to seek re-election instead of passing the torch."
It analyzed the party's loss of support among Hispanic, Black, Asian American and Native American voters, which had been mostly missing from the public draft.
And it pointedly raised the concern that most senior Democratic strategists in 2024 were "financially secure" and thus removed from the challenges facing many Americans. "It is therefore possible the people 'in the room' at the highest levels of 2024 decision making misunderstood the mood and practicalities facing everyday America," the report read.
...
The chapter did not name names of those who had become "generationally wealthy." But Mr. Rivera wrote that those Democrats seeking change "keep banging their heads up against a system proven to be inflexible and self-enriching."
"Whether that was a conscious decision on their part to bury the section for the purposes of hiding a paragraph, I don't know," Mr. Rivera said of the D.N.C. "That's a them question. What I can tell you is they had it, and they made a decision not to release it."
...
The dispute threatens to become a distraction for the party less than 100 days before the November midterm elections, when Democrats hope that President Trump's poor approval ratings will help them win control of the House and possibly the Senate. And it comes as Mr. Martin has come under fire for his stewardship of a party that recently reported more than $2 million in debt, while the Republican National Committee had $128.5 million in the bank.
Mr. Rivera, whose reputation was damaged when the party released and disavowed his draft report, said he was going public because he believed the party needed sweeping changes to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past -- which would require frank conversations that he does not see happening.
"It's coming from a place of hope and, honestly, a little bit of desperation," he said.
"There's a very comfortable ecosystem that will profit mightily from no change," said Mr. Rivera, who added that he was now releasing his own 564-page review of the 2024 election. "And I think that we need some disruption here to force change."
'Republicans For Talarico' Exposed As Complete Scam
"This lame rebrand of White Dudes for Kamala is full of lifelong Democrat donors, activists, and other losers."
Jacob Wheeler
Leftist outlet MS NOW aired a segment featuring three Texas women who identified themselves as Republicans and vowed to cross over for James Talarico -- but records show at least some of them have voted in Democratic primaries and donated to liberal candidates and causes.
Talarico, who has sparked backlash for his fringe views on Christianity, affection for transgender children, and disdain for the American flag, is banking on Republican crossover support to become the first Texas Democrat elected statewide in decades.
"Republicans for Talarico is as real as the six genders that Talarico claims exist, but has yet to explain what they are. This lame rebrand of White Dudes for Kamala is full of lifelong Democrat donors, activists, and other losers," RNC spokesman Zach Kraft said in a statement to The Daily Wire.
That "rebrand" was put on display earlier this month when MS NOW aired a segment from the political show "Long Play," featuring three white women from Tarrant County who portrayed themselves as disgruntled conservatives eager to vote for one of the most liberal candidates in Texas to run for federal office. The exchange went viral after Talarico's campaign seized on the segment, dubbing the women "Republican Moms."
During the segment, former school board candidate Mindy McClure described herself as a "moderate Republican," but as the saying goes, follow the money. Federal Election Commission filings show McClure has repeatedly given through ActBlue to Democratic candidates and anti-Trump groups dating back to 2018, including the Lincoln Project and Kamala Harris' 2024 presidential campaign.
"You've been Republicans for most of your voting lives. Who's voting for James Talarico?" asked Jennifer Palmieri, the former communications director for Hillary Clinton's failed presidential campaign.
All three of the so-called Republican moms raised their hands, arguing they had been duped by conservative culture-war messaging about "woke" politics in elementary schools.
...
Montgomery hasn't voted in a Republican primary since at least 2017 and over the last 20 years has voted in more Democratic primaries than Republican primaries, according to a Republican source who has reviewed the voting records. Texas reporter Tony Ortiz also reviewed the records, which showed that at least two of the women participated in Democratic primaries despite identifying themselves as Republican voters during the interview.
"Ran the voting record for one of the 'Republican' women featured here and she's already been voting in Democratic primaries this year," Ortiz wrote in a post on X. "Seems disingenuous to call yourself Republican if you've already been voting Dem."
Wait -- if this is a scam, does that mean that The Bulwark, The Dispatch, and National Review might be scams, too?

Tuq'r Qarlson Has On His Old Addict-Pal Hunter Biden to Explain That the Laptop Was a Fake Created By (Get This) Jews
—Disinformation Expert Ace
It doesn't strike me as implausible that Israeli intelligence could have shopped the laptop's contents around. Spy agencies do that kind of thing. They get their hands on juicy information and they use it against their enemies. And the Biden family is and was an enemy of Israel, as well as of America.
But Tuq'r Qarlson is spinning for his fellow drug addict and old friend Hunter Biden in suggesting that Israel made the whole laptop up.
Hunter Biden claimed Monday that he didn't abandon his infamous laptop packed with incriminating documents at a Delaware computer shop in 2019, but that the files were actually stolen from his online cloud storage -- despite the FBI presenting the MacBook Pro as evidence in court.
Hunter, 56, claimed an unknown person or entity broke into his accounts to steal the trove that showed how he involved his then-vice-president dad in lucrative international consulting relationships.
"They hacked my cloud," the former first son told former Fox News host Tucker Carlson in a two-hour interview -- suggesting that Russian or Israeli intelligence agencies or "some kid in his basement" had cobbled together stolen digital assets and claimed they were a laptop.
"There's no possible way all of the information that was eventually labeled as my laptop came from one laptop. It's way too large," he told Carlson.
The actual laptop was presented as evidence at the then-first son's 2024 illegal gun possession trial. FBI Special Agent Erika Jensen testified that the MacBook Pro 13's serial number on the back belonged to then-President Joe Biden's son -- as he sat in the courtroom.
Repairman John Paul Mac Isaac gave the laptop to the FBI after copying its files, resulting in The Post's bombshell reporting on how Joe Biden as vice president met with an executive from a Ukrainian gas company that was paying Hunter $1 million a year -- while Joe spearheaded the Obama administration's relationship with Kyiv.
Other files showed that Joe Biden was penciled in for a 10% cut in a Chinese government-linked business venture and that Hunter brought Mexican business associates to meet his father and met with his dad in close proximity to engagements with a corrupt Romanian tycoon.
False claims that the files were hacked or doctored prompted censorship by Twitter and Facebook shortly before the 2020 election and Joe Biden claimed they were a "Russian plant" -- though months later other major news outlets confirmed their authenticity.
"You have as good a guess as mine in terms of actually who was the original hacker of that information, who has the capacity to be able to do it," Hunter Biden told Carlson.
"I don't have digital forensic evidence that it was hacked by this person or this entity or this organization that it was Mossad, or that it was the GRU, or that it was, or that it was some kid in his basement."
...
Hunter claimed that "not one single thing of criminal activity other than use of drugs and all of the things that are associated with addiction is proved by the laptop."
In September 2024, the then-first son pleaded guilty to failing to pay at least $1.4 million in federal taxes between 2016 and 2019 on the international business relationships chronicled in the laptop. He separately was convicted in June 2024 of three gun felonies.
Biden family critics argued that laptop files showed that Hunter was working as an unregistered foreign agent, though he was not criminally charged.
Tuq'r Qarlson's website just defended Abdul El-Sayed, claiming that the "neocons" smear all enemies of Israel as "terrorists." As I said, he will have El-Sayed on for a promotional "interview" within weeks.
I can't find that item now but I will post it when I do find it again.

Funny story: In 2020, after the Hunter laptop came out, journos at Daily Caller, the site Tucker Carlosn-founded site where I worked, came across emails that showed Tucker asking Hunter Biden to write a letter of recommendation for his son to get into Georgetown.

Us Caller reporters thought this would be a great way to refute Bidenworld's claims at that time that the laptop emails were fake or illegitimate.
Someone who emailed with Hunter could verify their authenticity! We thought Tucker would be more than happy to help, and no ill will was intended.
But no. Tucker lashed out at the Daily Caller employee who was tasked with contacting him about this, saying that a story on that would be an "attack on my family," or something along those lines.
He's an angry, brain-damaged, ridiculous cunt.

Wisconsin socialist Francesca Hong voted against anti-child grooming law responding to pervy teacher pursuing 14-year-old
By Ryan King
WASHINGTON -- Wisconsin socialist darling Francesca Hong was one of just six lawmakers in the Badger State's legislature to vote against an anti-child grooming law enacted earlier this year by Democratic Gov. Tony Evers, records show.
The law -- which bars adults from "engaging in a course of conduct, pattern of behavior, or series of acts with the intention to condition, seduce, solicit, lure, or entice a child" into sexual activity or pornography -- was in response to the case of former Kenosha school teacher Christian Enwright, who was found guilty of a slew of misdemeanor counts for pursuing a relationship with a 14-year-old student.
"[Enwright] engaged in classic grooming behavior, preying on the vulnerability of at least one female student, under the guise of being a mentor, to foster and further a predatory relationship with her," a school district investigator wrote in a report quoted by the Cap Times in December 2025.
There was no actual law against the grooming so they convicted him on a bunch of misdemeanors. Lawmakers moved to make grooming of children by a teacher a felony -- and Hong insisted that her decarceration agenda means child groomers must go free.
Enwright began reaching out to the minor on Snapchat in June 2023 and exchanged more than 600 messages with her, including sexualized comments about her appearance and images of himself in bed without a shirt.
At least two staffers had privately expressed concerns about Enwright's behavior toward female students and he had a reputation for giving "long hugs," according to the Cap Times.
Eventually, the school district's human resources team received an anonymous tip about his behavior toward the teen in February 2024 and he was arrested, charged, and fired three months later.
However, prosecutors had difficulty bringing a case against Enwright because he never had sexual contact with the girl and none of the photos he sent or asked the teen for were explicit enough to charge him with a felony under state law.
Ultimately, Enwight pleaded guilty in April 2025 to 15 misdemeanor counts of disorderly conduct and was sentenced that July to 15 months in jail and three years of probation.
The subsequent outcry lead to the Wisconsin legislature passing the anti-grooming law, with the Assembly approving it 93-6 and the state Senate passing it by voice vote.
It is unclear why Hong, the leading Democratic gubernatorial candidate ahead of Tuesday's primary, opposed the bill -- though her colleagues who voted against it suggested the measure was redundant in state law.
Hong's campaign did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
The 37-year-old previously expressed support for both defunding and abolishing the police.
"Police exist to uphold white supremacy. Defund then abolish. Reform can't be an option," Hong posted on social media in October 2021, though she has since retreated from that position.
"I was actually trying to become a sports journalist when I first went to college, so I learned you sometimes have bad takes on Twitter," she recently told reporters in a bid to explain her radicalism.
Yes, she really dismissed all of her incendiary communist positions by saying that she was just doing some "bad takes on twitter."

This Democrat says he's voting Republican due to Hong's insistence that teachers should be allowed to rape their students:
Swann Marcus
@SwannMarcus89
I am now unironically likely R on the Wisconsin gubernatorial race. 7 months ago Francesca Hong voted against a bill that made it illegal for teachers to groom their students for sexual purposes
Here's what happened: A 30-year-old teacher messaged a 13-year-old student of his every day for six months and talked about how he wanted them to be together, she had a nice body, and he was jealous when she talked to other boys. He also sent her pictures of himself lying shirtless in bed
So the cops arrested him but when they went to charge him, they realized nothing he did was actually illegal. They never made sexual contact and no pictures were exchanged that were explicit enough to qualify under Wisconsin state law. This guy was actively trying to rape a 13-year-old student and there was no law forbidding his conduct
He wound up being charged with a bunch of disturbing the peace charges and only spent six months in prison for spending half a year abusing his authority as a teacher to manipulate a 13-year-old girl into having sex with him. He is not a convicted felon - since all the charges were misdemeanors - and is not on the sex offender registry
The Wisconsin State Assembly responded to this by drafting a bipartisan bill that made it a felony to engage in any course of conduct clearly and obviously intended seduce or lure a child into engaging in sexual acts or exchanging illicit images. It passed 193-6 and was signed into law by the Democratic governor. Francesca Hong voted no.
4 months later the first person was charged under the new law. He was 36-year-old man who met a developmentally disabled 16-year-old in a public park when she was 13 and spent the next three years trying to manipulate her into running away from home so he could make her his live-in sex slave.
To recap: Earlier *this very year* Franesca Hong was one of only six people to vote against a bill that made it illegal to take affirmative action designed to lure a minor into sexual acts and the very first person the bill Hong voted against was used to arrest was a guy who tried to rape an underage girl with Down Syndrome
I have never seen a Democratic candidate this bad. This is like Mark Robinson territory.

CNN NewsNight EXPOSES how the woke mind virus infected the Democrat Party:
@yemisi
: "Francesca Hong is a deeply unserious person. I think we've all but lost Wisconsin if she wins this primary... We're laughing now, but this is the way a lot of people were talking. White women were apologizing to me about their own whiteness, and so Francesca Hong saying her proximity to whiteness and her biracial son makes her uncomfortable. Quite frankly, if we take that and put it in 2019, it all kinda gels and fits together."
@jasonrantz
: "Which is why it's just so ironic to hear AOC talk about woke 1.0 as if number one, she wasn't a part of it when she obviously was, and she's trying to rewrite history. But woke 2.0 is just as bad. They maybe adapted some of the language that they use, and to say, "Well, no, I've evolved from that position." The question then becomes, for anyone who says woke 1.0 was crazy, was too-- Okay, tell us what specifically. Tell us what positions were too far to one side. Was it the defunding the police? Because you'll still get the same answer out of a lot of these folks. They'll just give it in a slightly different way, but their end result is exactly the same."
@Jesse_Leg
: "Well, this is the thing, right? I actually give Francesca Hong a little bit of credit. I mean, from the perspective that Thanksgiving is good and delicious. But to AOC, I would ask the question, 'if Woke 1 was crazy, well, which priors did you hold during Woke 1 that you no longer subscribe to? Do you believe that children shouldn't be able to have sex change operations anymore? Do you believe that biological men shouldn't be able to participate in women's sports? Do you disavow defunding the police, not prosecuting repeat offenders, the border policies of the first Biden administration?' These are all very good questions, 'cause I don't haven't heard her change her mind on much of anything from Woke 1."
The primary election is today and there seems to be no chance Hong can be defeated.
Meanwhile, the GOP has run zero ads against her, because they want her to win.
The Morning Rant: The Terrorists Have Won (At Least In The UK)
—CBD
Contrary to the breathless reporting about this event, Laurence Fox's stunt...threatening to display a cartoon of the 7th century pedophile Mohammad... is actually a perfect example of Islam's ascendance in the West. Fox is not a brave man fighting against the encroaching darkness of Islam; he is an observer pointing out that Islam has already won, at least in the UK.
Had Mr. Fox actually displayed an image of pedo Mo, what would the odds be that he would have been accosted at the least, and injured or killed at the worst?
Remember Charlie Hebdo? 12 dead and 11 wounded, all because Islam -- The Religion Of PeaceTM -- didn't like its drawings of their cult leader.
Remember Salman Rushdie? Islam's response to his 1988 book, The Satanic Verses drove him into hiding for years, and culminated in a failed assassination attempt that blinded him in one eye, 35 years after publication!
Best clip from the Oxford Union in a long time. A speaker suggests that he is about to display a cartoon of Muhammad to prove that Islam has a problem with free speech.
People scramble frantically to stop him: It is against the rules, unnecessary, irrelevant, disrespectful, and... pic.twitter.com/oRJ6MCXQOz
Islam controls the narrative in many places in the West. Yes, it is probably most powerful in the UK, but France and Belgium and the Netherlands and Germany and Canada and Spain and perhaps others are also on the road to sharia law and the complete destruction of free speech.
"Free Speech" is of necessity and by definition offensive, challenging, disturbing, and subverts the dominant paradigm. Otherwise it is just talk, without substance and without any meaning or import.
The West needs to push back forcefully against any challenge to our free speech rights. Anything less than a full-throated defense of our God-given, natural right to speak as we see fit will result in the loss of more than just free speech!

The Geological Service of Colombia confirmed a magnitude 7.4 earthquake rocking the country around 7:34 a.m. local time in the western region of Chocó, potentially causing significant damage. . . In the city of Cali, locals documented buildings with their windows broken and streets covered in glass and other debris.
Yikes, 7.4 is pretty damn significant. I have not seen any follow ups so hopefully things are under control and the people are getting on with the business of life as they dig out and begin the process of rebuilding and recovery. Considering the aftershocks of the political earthquake that led to the ejection of Commie strongman Gustavo Petro just a short while ago, it will certainly be a test for the newly elected government to see how fast and effectively it can respond. I'm sure President Trump will be quick to offer whatever assistance we can, as would be right and proper all things considered. One of the truly shining successes of the Trump administration has been his stunning success in turning much of Latin America away from the disaster of socialist rule as can especially be seen in Argentina and El Salvador just to name two countries that are now effectively in the Trump/freedom camp.
Unfortunately, the rest of the world is devolving into tyranny. Most notably England, from whence America emerged just 250 short years ago. Here are two horrible stories coming from across the pond that illustrate its rapid disintegration.
One social media user questioned whether carrying a baseball bat from a store should be treated as suspicious, writing, “Assuming this is all innocent. Are people not allowed to play baseball on the fields anymore? We may as well ban anything that potentially can be used as a weapon, which is most things in shops.” Another user argued apparently sincerely that the officer's response was understandable given the circumstances. “To be fair I wouldn't be happy seeing a guy just roaming around with a baseball bat in a densely packed public place, package or no package. copper decided to err on the side of caution and probably asked him to hand the bat over many times before it got to this point.”
The National Internet Intelligence Investigations unit notified local police about 106 posts, with 50 of those flagged in June alone, in the aftermath of disclosures surrounding the murder of teenager Henry Nowak. Nowak was stabbed to death by Vikrum Digwa, and his pleas for help were reportedly ignored by officers who doubted the dying student after his killer claimed to be a victim of racism.
It was a true period piece. One year before Wisconsin gubernatorial hopeful Francesca Hong called to "Cancel Thanksgiving," the socialist state representative, who is a professional chef, in October 2019 hosted an event she dubbed a "Feast of the Feminine," a "6course [sic] dinner inspired by menstruation." An invitation posted to the events website Eventbrite describes the "feast" as a "celebration of menstruation with conversation and dinner." It also lists a menu featuring on-theme ingredients like "Soondae-Korean blood sausage."
Meh, personally I prefer Carvel's Tom Turkey cake myself. With all these nightmares to ponder, I bid you all to somehow

ABOVE THE FOLD, BREAKING, NOTEWORTHY
The earthquake has already prompted at least one aftershock recorded at upwards of magnitude four. Locals in Chocó, Cali, and throughout the west of the country had recorded alarming videos of buildings swaying, their windows crashing down and leaving trails of debris on the streets. At press time, however, authorities have not documented any deaths, though local officials in Chocó warned that they expect a high number of casualties.

The Short Unhappy Life of a Russian Soldier: Why recruits die in 20-30 minutes Interesting video. Some key parts: drones were responsible for 70-80% of all battlefield deaths in mid-2025, and I bet it's higher now. The Russian army is incredibly corrupt. Men get assigned to the most dangerous frontline units, the "Storm" units, unless they pay a superior $2,000 to be assigned to a different unit. Furthermore, there is often no real training for recruits -- commanders pocket the money that would have gone towards fuel and ammo costs incurred during training. Much "training" consists just of taking a single picture of soldiers doing something soldier-y, like fording a river, and publishing that as proof that the training was done. Even when it is done, training is only two weeks long.

FDA is providing an update regarding the sample of lettuce supplied by Taylor Farms de Mexico which was reported positive on July 18, 2026. Due to the complexity in detection of Cyclospora, FDA laboratory experts re-reviewed the sample results and have concluded that the finding does not represent true amplification and should be considered a false positive. Information about the sample has been removed from the July 18, 2026, update below. FDA has notified Taylor Farms and continues working with the firm to ensure product implicated in this outbreak has been removed from the market. FDA and state partners continue to collect and analyze product samples. As of July 19, 2026, there are no confirmed positive sample results for product testing for Cyclospora.
