In the Ridley Scott film "Kingdom of Heaven" the Crusaders march to Hattin, where they will surely defeat Saladin
This is a screenshot of Professor Jiang, the fella who is getting a lot of credit for predicting maybe two years ago that Trump would return and declare war on Iran, as he does another lecture for us all about why America is goung to lose this one (it's because our allies like Qatar and Bahrain import all their damn food through the straight of hormuz which the war has now closed)
just Stephen A complaining about load management in the NBA versus college in which there is no load management (they play 30 games in a season lol)
NYT: Would you prefer a candidate who IDs as progressive or a candidate who IDs as moderate Dems in the survey group: 13 raise hands for progressive, 0 raise hands for moderate
"Jesse Van Rootselaar, 18, ID’d as transgender ex-student behind Tumbler Ridge mass shooting" replace transgender in this headline with any other possible identifier and imagine how you'd feel about that, like could you look yourself in the mirror and feel OK about working at a place that does this stuff
Via Wikipedia: In a futuristic Los Angeles with crime on the rise, the Mercy Capital Court uses AI judges to put defendants on trial for violent crimes. The AI judges gives the defendants all available resources to find and provide all the evidence needed and are given 90 minutes to prove their innocence, or be executed via a sonic blast. Me: "wow"
"One video of a fatal ICE shooting, two opposite views" the dumbass Grey Lady opined about the obvious lies being spread about the killing of a Minneapolis woman
Gonzalez’s attorneys, on the other hand, asked the jury to consider what the school officer would have perceived in the limited amount of time he had to react. “This didn’t happen in slow motion,” said Michael Schwartz, the lead attorney defending Gonzalez, during his closing arguments last week. “Life doesn’t happen in slow motion.” Immediately after the hearing Tuesday, some jurors said Schwartz convinced others on the jury that Gonzalez was still reacting to the car pushing forward and screeching its tires, even as he got out of the way, when he fired the fatal shot at Rodriguez.
JD Vance has lower favorability than Amdrew Tate
"Of the 252 Venezuelans sent to CECOT, we say nearly half have no criminal histories. In other words, more than half do have criminal histories." Big brain, good edits, journalism saved
On November 21, 2017, Byers posted a tweet on his account implying that the recent sexual harassment scandals in media and entertainment were draining those industries of talent. The tweet was later deleted.
From the Semafor op ed Chotiner said was a little suspicious: "There’s a recurring trap in how we analyze Saudi Arabia’s monarchs: focusing on too narrow a timeframe. Nowhere is that clearer than in the debate over Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. The murder of columnist Jamal Khashoggi will likely follow him forever in the Western press, as was evident during his Washington visit last week. But that’s not the metric by which his subjects will judge a reign that could stretch across half a century." LOL uh ok so should we not care MBS killed a guy
NYT got rid of their ombudsman less than a year before this happened lmao
An old Business Insider headline: "A former New York Times staffer quietly left the paper after revealing he had solicited charitable donations from Jeffrey Epstein" I think you should be shouting your reporter's deeply unethical behavior from the rooftops, actually

"Nearly half of new recruits who’ve arrived for training at FLETC over the past three months were later sent home because they could not pass the written exam, according to the data. The academic requirement includes an exam where officers are allowed to consult their textbooks and notes at the end of a legal course on the Immigration and Nationality Act and the Fourth Amendment, which outlines when officers can and cannot conduct searches and seizures." YIKES
some ICE agents lookin' real stupid
"Much of what I would describe as Kirk’s worst moments were standard-fare MAGA Republicanism. And the leader of that movement is the president of the United States. He is now in the White House, having won about half the country’s votes in the last election. We are going to have to live here with one another, believing what we believe, disagreeing in the ways we disagree." Unbelievable lol
It's a map of the world with fertility rates for every country and every African nation is blowing the rest of the world out of the water, so I'm saying the only reason anyone discusses this is literally because worrying about replacement level fertility rates is a white supremacist thing, fuckin' full stop lol morons. OMG America has a declining birth rate well you know what let in every immigrant who wants in, problem solved dipshits!
It's Trump looking very sleepy, possibly near death, wearing a "Trump Was Right About Everything" hat lol
"And I'm....I'm Ghislaine Maxwell..."
a historian told the writer of this column that calling Trump "intrusive" is stupid, preferring to be accurate that Trump, No. 1, is creating "an international crime and corruption syndicate," and 2, that Trump has no checks on his "brazen lawlessness." The writer of the column proceeded to continue primarily describing Trump as intrusive, using that word in the headline and the lede, lmao Tom you old ass idiot
it's an excerpt from the independent story describing how Malcolm Collins as a teen was caught building knives and explosives in his backyard and when confronted about it, told his school's principal that if he wanted to kill people, he'd do it in a more efficient way
From Politico: How about a centrist Dem hot take? “It is extremely alarming that the only candidates who genuinely excite our voters are the ones making absolutely insane promises on politically toxic positions,” one Dem strategist tells Playbook’s Adam Wren. “Leaving us in the spot of trying to execute on bad policy and losing terribly, or failing to keep our promises and reinforcing the idea that all politics is bullshit.”
