The only thing I know about the Super Bowl is this.

Post-apartheid South Africa explicitly left the vast majority of property and wealth in the hands of whites in exchange for majority political rule. Many whites left, but many more stayed, and they continue to be the primary holders of wealth in South Africa.

To emphasize once again: the vast majority of fentanyl traffickers are US citizens, who get less scrutiny when reentering the country at ports of entry. Here's the Sentencing Commission noting that in FY 2023, 86.4% of people sentenced for fentanyl trafficking were US citizens.

@CasparVeldkamp And so it is concerning that while @CasparVeldkamp has not met any Syrian organisations or representatives since the fall of the brutal Assad regime he does meet with the pro-regime @SAF_NL. The Dutch state should support the Syrian people, not the remains of an brutal regime.

Many of the released Palestinian detainees, including children, are suffering from different illnesses, including skin diseases. In today’s release, some detainees are being hospitalized due to Israeli torture and abuse while in Israeli torture camps. At the same time the Israeli army was deployed to raid the homes of families of released detainees and threatened them from celebrating at gunpoint. Some detainees were tied up for months, leading to amputations. The testimonies are horrifying. Israeli Prison guards really showed no mercy. Reminding that many were being held without trial or charge, while hundreds from Gaza were literally put in dungeons.

Aside from the fact that Carlson appears to be having a stroke mid-interview, this sort of historical revisionism - in which Milosevic’s genocidal, fascist regime is characterized as “Christian” - is indistinguishable from the “logic” of extremists like Christchurch terrorist.

Kash Patel confirmation hearing: Dick Durbin asks Patel if he’s familiar with Stew Peters—a right-wing fringe conspiracy theorist. Patel: <long pause> Not off the top of my head. Durbin: You’ve made eight appearances on his podcast.

The context here: Kennedy accused Sanders of being bought by pharma bc "you were the single largest receiver of pharmaceutical money" in 2020. Sanders responded: He took zero from executives or PACs, the donations were from workers employed in the industry.

Amazingly, the White House does not seem to have seen the fact checks that this is not true. Then Trump just whole clothe made up the condoms the US was not sending to Gaza were diverted for bombs

Streaming firm @Deezer has released a new AI detection tool after admitting that 10,000 "fully AI-generated tracks" are being uploaded to the platform every day. ra.co/news/82020

So, Trump created a problem that DID NOT EXIST, instantly lost, gave up everything he was trying to negotiate, looked like a weak dickhead to the rest of the world, and damaged diplomatic relations with an ally while boosting Chinese soft power in South America. 5/

DeepSeek seems great.

Ook de CIA zegt nu dat Covid uit het laboratorium in Wuhan is ontsnapt. Sterker: dat vonden ze meteen al in 2020. Biden zat er op, maar het Trump regime kiest (deze ene keer) voor de waarheid. Deze account hield er altijd al rekening mee, en sinds '21 lijkt het aannemelijk.

@olex_scherba I’ll take both of those over yr faves, thankyouverymuch

Another forgettable Oscar season. What happened to the era of “Forrest Gump”, “American Beauty” and “Misery”? “Anora”, “Substance” etc - it’s like bugs inheriting the Earth… #Oscars

Right-wingers got a tv weather forecaster fired for calling Elon's salute a Nazi salute on her personal Instagram account.
