I don’t agree with the new law in Israel, but the outrage highlights the double standard Israel is held to. Israel is debating capital punishment for TERRORISM RELATED MURDER. Meanwhile, under the Islamic Republic in Iran, hundreds are executed every year—not just for murder, but for political charges like “enmity against God,” dissent, or alleged spying. The law itself ranks people by religion. Baha’is aren’t even recognized. Others live with limits on what they can practice, where they can work, and how they can live (apartheid). In Saudi Arabia, executions are routine—including for non-violent offenses—and public religious freedom doesn’t exist. Across the region, people are imprisoned or executed for belief, identity, or speech. And yet when Israel moves even slightly in the same direction as its neighbors, the reaction is on a completely different scale… thats why it’s hard to take the critics seriously— your outrage is selective, and it’s clear why.

I feel like I could become best friends with this person.

My cousin captured Artemis takeoff from his flight. So cool 📸: @radddd44

@2xBani @JamesLucasIT I mean, sure, getting the teacher arrested would be hilarious. 🙄

@JamesLucasIT Should have said, "now we will contact the Father while you are on the phone, then had teachers phone ring!!!

Best classroom April fools prank ever This professor has a policy that if your phone rings in class, you must answer it on speakerphone, so the students arranged to have a friend call on April fools’ day...

Here are my top 10 WORST dogs!

As the last light began to fade off the top of Mt. Baker tonight, I captured the near full moon rising between the silo and a pancake stack of lenticular clouds! What a stunning night! Whatcom County, WA #wawx #fullmoon #moonrise #whatcomcounty

This is what the media didn't want us to know about the Islamic terrorist attack on a Jewish preschool out of Dearborn 1. Ayman Ghazali, the terrorist, said he was doing it to get his virgins “Jihad is a gateway to heaven; one that Allah opens to his chosen ones,” he texted

Ya ever mix two flavors together by accident and then taste the combo and be like “wow, that’s actually pretty good!” Yesterday, when I accidentally mixed iced coffee and lemonade was not one of those times.

Here are the Top 5 Dogs of March!

There’s “problematic”… and then there’s this. A federal judge just greenlit a move to extract a list of Jews from Penn. History is screaming right now.

I lost count. This might be my 20th visit to Israel since October 7. Not to Lebanon, where I grew up, where an economy survives on the support of visitors. Not to crumbling Damascus, the oldest continuously inhabited city in the world, which offered me nothing but harassment and a birthplace on my passport. But to Israel, during the worst war since its establishment. Because I am a traitor. I betrayed my friends and family, my educators, and the mainstream in Lebanon, Syria, across the Arab and Muslim worlds, in Europe, and in America. Unlike the masses who have never set foot in Israel, I know that Israelis are not monsters. They do not seek war, nor do they wage it to conquer land. The accusations of genocide, the blood libels, the conspiracy theories—they are not rooted in reality. They are born of ignorance, and too often, of something darker. At best, hostile opinions stem from a profound misunderstanding: of this war, of the history of this conflict, of political Islam and its ambitions, of Judaism, and certainly of Zionism. But how could the average person not be confused? A relentless campaign of misinformation defames Israel while elevating the Palestinian narrative into a simplistic story of pure victimhood. It is emotionally compelling. It is easy. It requires no deeper inquiry. And so the question is never asked: What happens the day after? Would a Palestinian state focus on building a thriving society, contributing to the region and to the world? Or would it continue a war against Israel? History does not leave much room for doubt. Every attempt at compromise has been met by rejection or violence. And yet, the pressure is always placed on Israel—to concede, to risk, to appease. Why? To satisfy crowds who chant slogans they barely understand? To align with a cause that thrives not on building, but on perpetuating conflict? Real genocides unfold across the world and are met with indifference. Millions of Kurds still seek a state. Others fight for self-determination without commanding global obsession. The difference is not the cause. The difference is the JEW. The particular fixation on Israel cannot be separated from a much older story—one of projection, distortion, and hatred uniquely reserved for Jews. I consider myself privileged. Privileged to have seen through the lies I was taught—the lies you are told. Privileged to have encountered the reality of a people who built, defended, and sustained a state against relentless hostility. As a seeker of truth, I was met with warmth, love, and respect. I have come to admire Israel and the Jewish people to such a degree that the noise—the accusations, the mob, the cowardice—has become irrelevant. Yes, I am a traitor. A traitor to narratives built on falsehood. A traitor to expectations that demand loyalty to lies. A traitor to a cause that demands endless sacrifice and conformity. A traitor to a cause to which I owe nothing. On the contrary, it owes me. I believe not what I was told, but what I see. I choose truth over belonging because I am free. If that makes me a traitor, so be it. I stand, firmly and proudly, with Israel. Am Yisrael Chai. #Israel #palestine #October7

could you even imagine

@ScottAllen_1776 @bncrna @TheFungi669 Not according to multiple Supreme Court precedents, no, you're not right.

@bncrna @TheFungi669 Go read the comments of the actual author of that section of the 14th Amendment and you will find that I am correct.

Marco Rubio: “Just because you’re born on U.S. soil doesn’t make you a citizen. Your parents must be U.S. citizens.” Grok: “Marco Rubio was born in Miami in 1971. His parents became citizens in 1975. Rubio is a beneficiary of birthright citizenship.”

@ScottAllen_1776 @TheFungi669 Wait, so non-citizens aren't under US jurisdiction, so aren't subject to US laws? Then why are you all insisting we remember names of victims of violence by immigrants (but not victims of citizen crime)? They didn't commit crime bc they aren't subject to our jurisdiction. Right??

No! Once Marco’s parents became legal U.S. citizens Marco automatically became an American citizen regardless of where he was born. Anyone born on U.S. soil to a parent or parents of illegal aliens are not automatically U.S. citizens. Four words decide everything: Subject to the jurisdiction. Illegal aliens owe no allegiance to the United States. They fall outside the jurisdiction. History confirms it. Congress had to pass a separate statute to grant birthright citizenship to American Indians. They weren't subject to jurisdiction either. So ask the simple question. If American Indians didn't get automatic birthright citizenship, how do the children of illegal aliens? They don't.

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents, working with state police, pulled over a vehicle, in Ogden, Utah… and smashed their car window because he wouldn’t roll it down all the way. Watch the shift… because this is where it goes from aggressive to completely out of control. The driver already has the window partially open. The ICE agent is yelling, giving a countdown, threatening to break the window… while another officer is trying to open the door from the other side. No explanation, or clear threat… Just escalation. Then, someone inside says, “I’m a U.S. citizen… you pointed a gun at me.” And that’s the moment everything changes. Instead of pulling back… instead of correcting… instead of even acknowledging it… The ICE agent snaps. “I don’t give a shit who you are, I don’t know you.” And then he immediately escalates further… raises the metal bar… and starts hitting the window… doubling down on force. A person says you pointed a gun at them… and your response is not to de-escalate… It’s to get MORE aggressive. That’s retaliation. They call them “non-compliant”… and within seconds, the window is smashed and the driver is dragged out. And it doesn’t stop there. The passenger… who is recording… gets told to “stay there” while the officer puts his hand on his gun. He responds, “I’m recording for my safety.” The officer shuts the door on him anyway. When he opens it again and steps out… and then the officer physically shoves him back into the car. This is what needs to be understood… The escalation didn’t come from a threat. It came the second someone spoke up… the second someone said, “you pointed a gun at me”… The second someone started documenting it. That’s when it got worse. That’s when it turned physical. That’s when the window broke. And that’s what should alarm people… because that’s not about safety anymore. That’s about being challenged… and responding with more force.

Our thoughts are with our mates at KitKat as they navigate this unexpected and difficult time. In completely unrelated news: Introducing the NEW Bloomin’ KitKat. just $1 while supplies are, um… abundant.

@Mr_Husky1 ...of the living room floor. I live in a less than 1k sq ft condo. Still have no idea where it was or how it came back, but it's actually gone missing again a few months ago. Searched again, everywhere. I guess it'll turn up again when the universe is ready.

@Mr_Husky1 My dog has a little pink rubber waffle ball that a friend gave me 5 years ago when I first adopted him. Ball went missing. I don't take it outside, don't have a yard. Looked everywhere, under everything, with flashlight. Gone for months. Then one day there it was, in the middle..

I have lost my keys inside my car. Not locked, LOST. To clarify: My car turned on. My car will only turn on if the keys are inside of it. So they must be in the car. Yet I cannot find my keys. My car is not messy. There is very little in it. I’ve looked everywhere. And yet, the keys are nowhere to be found. But they have to be here. Hence, I have lost my keys in my car. What … and I cannot stress this enough … the f*ck?

Some days you can’t love social media enough. This is one of those days. It began like this. Someone stole 12 tons of KitKats. And then the replies started coming in. Scroll down.
