The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

A spokesperson for the Freedom Flotilla Coalition tells me:

“Chris Smalls is still in Givon Prison and despite repeated requests to meet with the U.S. Embassy has been ignored by his country after being abducted by the IOF in international waters.”

It’s impossible to watch this without getting emotional

They Fled War in Ethiopia. Then American Bombs Found Them.

In April, U.S.-made bombs destroyed a detention facility that held Ethiopian migrants in Yemen, crushing bodies and shredding limbs. Few answers have emerged, and the U.S. has not claimed responsibility. Amid official silence, the survivors are left wondering why.

The entire reason we created the ACA and Medicaid expansion is many jobs don’t offer health insurance, and certainly those who work as contractors or consultants are not employees. They all understand this and are just saying crazy shit up there all the time. Ugly bill will hurt entrepreneurship.

He was reposting/liking MAGA vids/material….people exposed him early on when the season dropped but the islanders don’t know.

But oop is correct. I hope she’s gone by tomorrow

I think her standing behind him showed how genuine she is bc he is her friend (she don’t know his views sadly) also she wasn’t the deciding vote…it was Cierra who should’ve stood behind Andriena.

I think we should be more concerned about Cierra standing behind Taylor bc not only did she express the previous epi how annoyed she as with his movements but also his treatment of Olandria.

Ps I Hate to defend him but just wanted to point this out

Before y’all jump on Olandria I think it’s important to note that she prob has a real friendship with Austin and doesn’t know his political views. Also keep in mind Austin was the ONLY person to vote against Taylor on the epi. Charlie left so she prolly was returning the favor. #loveislandUSA

I think Ola has a friendship with Austin and prob don’t know his political views but keep in mind Austin (hate to defend him) but he was the ONLY person to vote against Taylor on the episode Charlie left so she prolly was returning the favor.

Olan should have went with her initial thought on epi. 24 (after the recoupling) where she said she wanted to close that chapter. But also Taylor should’ve pulled her aside & explained/stated he was done exploring their relationship and connection, which on episode 21 he said was really strong.

He never said he was not going to explore her, I’m assuming he thought the swing convo was the end. But in the same swing convo he said Olandria “did her big one and wanted to kiss her but out of respect for Clarke he didn’t.”

At the 10:35 mark, he states that Olandria asked why he initially picked Clarke during the recoupling when they were on the swings, he said it was bc she gave him a kid feeling…however at the 6:36 mark on episode 25 he said Clarke gave him a “diff feeling, and he went with his gut.”

They don’t want them to get the bag fr they would’ve blew up after the show.

No.Taylor said he told her Clarke gave him a “kid feeling” he never stated he didn’t want to explore with her, that’s why he said “Oh y’all want me to choose”….because he never actually said I’m done exploring you and only want Clarke. It took him in front of everyone to finally say those words.

Trump and Republicans in Congress are trying to pull off one of the biggest heists in U.S. history.

The so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” is robbery, plain and simple.

And it’s being committed by the billionaire class and the politicians they put into office.

In classic Republican fashion—they've found a way to make their "Big Beautiful Bill" even worse.

More cuts to health care.
More money added to the debt.
More Americans suffer.

A photo of the Ten Commandments

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Texas governor signs bill requiring Ten Commandments to be displayed in classrooms, the largest state to do so.

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.
