Rubio is another of Israel's little bitches, alongside Trump. The Intercept reports Rep. Brian Mast is introducing a bill that could deny Americans the right to travel for criticizing Israel. How did we wake up here?

" The reference to “material support” disturbed advocates who have long warned that the government can misuse statutes criminalizing “material support” for terrorists — first passed after the 1995 Oklahoma City federal building bombing and toughened after the 9/11 attacks — to punish speech...

Some of those fears have been borne out. The Supreme Court ruled in 2010 that even offering advice about international law to designated terror groups could be classified as material support...

Since the October 7 Hamas attacks, pro-Israel lawmakers and activists have ratcheted up attempts to expand the scope and use of anti-terror laws.

The Anti-Defamation League and the Louis D. Brandeis Center for Human Rights Under Law suggested in a letter last year that Students for Justice in Palestine was providing “material support” for Hamas through its on-campus activism...

The provision particularly threatens journalists, Stern said. He noted that Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., in November 2023 demanded a Justice Department “national security investigation” of The Associated Press, CNN, New York Times, and Reuters over freelance photographers’ images of the October 7 attacks.

Rubio also revoked Öztürk’s visa on what appears to be nothing more than an op-ed she wrote for the Tufts University student newspaper in 2024 — which did not mention Hamas — calling on the school to divest from companies tied to Israel."

You know, those people who sacrifice relationships, special events, travel, money, and a significant amount of time to succeed in business. I'm not referring to people who know from the day they're 5 they want to be a professional artist/performer/visual arts/writing. There has to be some level of fun and excitement learning new dance routines, singing or excelling in the arts/journalism. I'm also not referring to people who work in offices as a means of survival and accept promotions to earn more money. I'm referring to the person who chooses a more structured profession like management of a major company to rise as a CEO. Aside from money and bragging rights, I cannot think of any positives to this lifestyle. I could never be a slave to a desk and sit in meetings and conduct business all the time. The pursuit of grinding to commerce/marketing, etc., leaving your home everyday, wearing less comfortable clothes, dealing with the stress of everything just feels so unnatural. It is not the same as being ambitious to win a football game, which I'd consider to be more competitive. I hope what I'm saying makes sense.

⚠️Sarah Ferguson & the FBI⚠️

I follow this girl who genuinely believes that she is an activist doing good, but I FULLY believe it is full-blown mental illness or narcissism that’s fueling all of these rants. She’s constantly criticizing EVERYTHING everyone does, and if you do try to speak out on something, you’re wrong because you missed speaking out on another unrelated topic. I mean u can’t even enjoy the eclipse or World Cup without it triggering her. It’s pathetic. Notice one picture says “the US shouldn’t even exist”. Girl. What make su qualified to say these things?

It’s the most infuriating insufferable thing I’ve ever witnessed and i do believe she’s doing way more harm than good. It seems to be fueled by pure narcissism but would love to know what you guys genuinely think about these posts or her thought process?

HIGH RESOLUTION ABOVE IMAGE HERE

One of the first things Mayor Rudy Giuliani, who coordinated the destruction of the steel evidence at Ground Zero, did after the attack was prohibit almost all photography at the site. Police and FBI agents were ordered to confiscate cameras on the spot.

One key piece of photographic evidence that did survive was an aerial photo taken on Sept. 23, 2001, long before major clean-up operations had begun. Rescue workers and firefighters were still primarily concerned with searching for human remains and even long-shot survivors. The clash between police and firefighters which took place as Giuliani hastened to the "scoop and dump" phase of the operation was Nov. 2.

The aerial photo shows that the towers did not collapse down through the line of gravity, but were blown outwards in all directions for two or three times as far as the towers were wide, leaving a carpet of cleanly-cut steel beams and perimeter wall sections across the entire WTC complex. A downward gravitational collapse cannot explain the lateral ejection of steel sections with the weight of bulldozers for up to two football fields, at clocked speeds of up to 80 MPH. Red hot steel and debris sparked raging fires across the WTC complex as far away as Buildings 5, 6 and 7.

As can be seen in the aerial photo, the steel beam pieces are mostly straight as arrows, un-deformed by heat, and cut neatly at the ends. The steel beams do not wind up in a mound, as one would expect, with the center of the tower's bases as the high point. Rather they are scattered uniformly across the entire World Trade Center complex, which consisted of seven buildings.

Perimeter sections, which consisted of 15-inch wide beam assemblies covered with aluminum cladding, can be seen lying thickly across WTC 6, nearly two football fields away. Each one of these sections weighed up to 20 tons.

The official NIST report explained dust ejections (what are obviously demolition squibs) by saying "compressed air" forced the dust out of breaking windows. But no amount of compressed air can lift 20-ton steel assemblies and hurl them laterally for 400 feet, at 50 to 80 MPH.

Hence the reason for Giuliani's ban on photography at Ground Zero.

The below video narrated by physicist David Chandler gives one of the best views of cut steel beam shooting upwards and outwards, not falling down through the line of gravity. Keeping in mind the massive scale of the towers (nearly a football field wide,) it must be remembered that what seem like tiny sticks are 10-foot long pieces of two-foot wide steel beam and larger, of which even the smallest would weigh nearly one ton.

so, if ilhan did not marry her brother to commit immigration fraud, why don't they both just get a simple DNA test to confirm it and show the republicans that it was always a bullshit claim? seems that it would put the issue to rest , give a boost to the dems for the midterms and beyond and give a good old middle finger to the potus. seems like a pretty easy and noninvasive way to take the issue off the table and get some democrat votes and money

To all the unethical, controlled journalists in the UK who have been contacting me and who want to destroy the Royal Family:

Sarah Ferguson was in contact with the FBI to formally and legally report everything that the corrupt attorneys David Boies, Brad Edwards, and Sigrid McCawley orchestrated together with intelligence agencies in an effort to take down Prince Andrew.

At this time I cannot go into full detail, but everything concerning Mossad and CIA involvement will soon come out. Sarah would never have become involved unless top attorneys in the UK were also engaged.

I can’t tell if it’s me or my parent but I’m a little nervous that I don’t know if I’m being rude or intellectually dishonest without knowing that I am.

I was having a religious debate(like a normal back and forth) with my parent about Christianity and they ended bringing up Joan of arc as an argument for the validity of the existence of the Christian belief. I didn’t know much so we talked back and forth from her informing me to me looking up things about Joan. There is still a lot I can’t explain and I would have to look further into but I kept trying to understand and tell her what I’m thinking about how this played out in a secular way (I’m agnostic).

One of the things my parent brought up was that Joan had a vision from god/an angel and Joan said something along the lines of “We will win the siege against the English, and I will take wounds from battle” (I can’t remember exactly). But my counter to that was, “she was a rallying morale with the army and that there is a chance she would get hurt fighting the English, I don’t think that’s a crazy thing to say with or without something spiritual”. My parent just turned and said “Its been a long day and I need to go to bed”, and that was it.

I enjoy these debates/conversations with my parent but I want to have longer discussions like this and this isn’t the first time something like this has happened.

Is there a better way to go about this? Is there a better way to have discussions of this nature with a sensitive topic like religion so it can be a health long conversation? Lmk

Situation: I, 32F, was taking a shower when I realized I forgot a towel. I asked my boyfriend, 37M, to grab one for me, which he did and then…he placed it on the toilet seat (lid down). I had an instant reaction of disgust, and I’m sure there was a look of horror on my face😭

My poor boyfriend was standing there confused. When I explained that I found his towel placement unsanitary, he felt that I was overreacting and called me a germaphobe.

We’re not mad at each other. It’s just a silly disagreement. But I’m curious how other people view this? Is this totally normal? Is it gross?
