We don't empower our cops to beat them with sticks anymore. When you live your life one minute at a time, the only thing you can understand is immediate physical consequences. Expecting people like this to comprehend that their current actions will incur (maybe) punishment in the future is frankly unreasonable and cruel.

We need to have a serious discussion about how to fix these teen takeovers. Nearly EVERY time, the crowd is OVERWHELMINGLY Black, but we are not allowed to notice that because that's racist... ...so how do we fix this? Seriously, what is the ACTUAL solution here???

@Michaeach3 The UK could do with a police force like that rather than the laughing stock they have.

🚨 THIS IS HOW YOU DEAL WITH THE RADICAL MOB. An anti-Semitic mob tried to blockade the Maersk headquarters in Copenhagen to disrupt critical maritime infrastructure. Danish police showed absolutely zero tolerance. They moved in, restored public order, and shut the mob down. European cities need to stop negotiating with these radicals and start clearing them out. RT to show the world how it is done. 🔄

@keethers6872385 @ChiomaWard7 And I fully understand that’s a DA approach, meaning Brian Schwalb would need to get involved, rather than MPD. It’s a lot to ask for from a DA with limited resources but the truth is these are juvenile crimes.

Four more weeks of y’all trying to capitalize on every single incident. How was a curfew going to stop that fight? Let’s use our brains please.

@molcranenewman @NYCMayorsOffice This was not a political murder. This was rage against an industry that caused the deaths of millions while those responsible have grown wealthy and suffered no consequences. Prove me wrong.

The future of journalism? Credentialed members of the NYC press corps came to Luigi Mangione’s hearing today to support the defendant they’re purportedly reporting on and to promote jury nullification “to the most cucked and submissive population in all of human history”

For the record, I think Lupita Nyong’o is incredibly beautiful. I mean she has a nearly perfect face. The issue is that Helen of Troy was Greek and described as fair and Musk is almost certainly correct that Nolan changed her race to fulfill the new diversity standards the Academy requires. And we should whine about that. It’s death to art.

Elon Musk amplifies online whining about Christopher Nolan casting Lupita Nyong'o. Take a look: bit.ly/4dH5sDZ

Mamdani has proposed a balanced budget for next year, with level spending while closing a $12b deficit. Trump's budget proposal increases the deficit by about $300b, with a massive deficit next year of more than $2 trillion. Fiscal responsibility? Mamdani > Trump.

@BillKristol Bill I’m going to assume you are not blatantly lying and just don’t know the story The deficit was 12B over two years. The state of NY is giving NYC 8 billion to cover the short fall and the remaining 4B covered by increasing taxes Daddy took care of the spoiled rich kid

@SongBird3411 @mattyglesias Movies are grounded in plausibility. That’s why if you make a movie about Franklin Roosevelt, you don’t cast Snoop Dogg in the role.

@SyndesiIntl @MatthewHof22814 @JamesSurowiecki No. Cillian Murphy is actually Irish, dumbass. But do you know how incredibly ignorant you have to be in order to think Oppenheimer took place in Germany! Lmfao. How little you have to know about it. That is hilarious shit. Thanks for that! Germany was the other guys. LOL

If you want to criticize Nolan's casting, go ahead. But at least stop with the nonsensical claim that he cast Nyong'o in order to make The Odyssey Oscar-eligible. It's objectively false. The Oscars' diversity standards can be met by films with casts that are all white, because crew, production and marketing staff, and even studio executives count toward the requirements. Oppenheimer, for instance, had a nearly all-white cast, but easily met the standards because it had women and people of color in key production roles, and Universal had a diverse marketing and distribution team. The same will be true of The Odyssey (which is also being distributed by Universal). Nolan cast Nyong'o because he wanted to, not because some Oscar standard required him to.
Elon Musk@elonmusk

Chris Nolan desecrated the Odyssey so that he would be eligible for an Academy Award …

@JamesSurowiecki @SyndesiIntl Part was. Oppenheimer studied in German universities, which had the leading physics departments in the world. And a lot of the scientists in the MP were German.

You said it before I could. The level of dishonesty about this SCOTUS action is astonishing. @ScottSurovell posted a similar dishonest thing and he’s a lawyer, so he presumably knows he’s lying (unless he is actually that stupid.) I’m assuming that the Dems knew this petition was a POS, but figured they could rage bait about it.

"Block" is an active verb. SCOTUS did nothing to block VA. They issued no injunctions. They did not get involved because it was none of their business. When Trump catches an injunction, it is correct to say he's been blocked. When a court chooses not to enjoin him, it is not correct to say his opponents have been blocked.

Exceptionally dishonest, even for the Washington Post. There was no “blocking.” The application was frivolous, as evidenced by the fact that no one dissented.
