Imagine the financial and political state of the Democrats if they didn't have all of this illegal money, didn't have the media on their side, and didn't steal the elections! What a different world we'd be in. Not that the Republicans would still know how to govern, but still....

Well, yeah.

@GigaBeers I believe he's germaphobic too.

Leaders with no respect except…👀 (The Starbuck’s salute is downright disgusting)

@RonDeSantis Everything government touches turns into a grift for the well connected people.

Bureaucracy run amok.

@ChatByCC @614clinton Why is my "Following" tab showing me posts from people (not ads) I'm NOT following?? It's turning into "For You" Why can't people keep things simple?

HELP! My account is being strangled by the algorithm.

@ibuildthecloud Wait until you find out AI will do stuff that'll purposely get you to prompt it more so you spend more $ than necessary. Eg it doesn't produce the complete answer the first time (leaves placeholders/stubs).

Really?!

I used to say the Democrats were a joke because they valued style over substance. As long as they claimed to want to solve an issue that was good enough for them. Results didn't matter. It's obvious that "investigations" are the Republican version of it. Both parties are useless.

Here's the problem with the Republican party. Everyone knows that Ilhan Omar is criminal as the day is long. And yet we just investigate and investigate and investigate and investigate and no charges are ever filed. If Ilhan were Republican, she would have been in prison years ago.

Insane NoKings interviews: Free the Gays of Hormuz!!! (focusing on the straights of Hormuz is wrong!)

@ibuildthecloud I've found that OneDrive can't handle very large amounts of data w/o bringing my Mac to a crawl.

I accidentally put a VM on the OneDrive folder so it filled up my OneDrive. I swear that impacted the overall performance of Windows. Doesn't make any sense but all I/O got really laggy. There is this weird behavior in Windows where the mouse will fall behind.

@OwenGregorian You can be debanked for wrong-think but not murder

FTC Warns Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, Stripe Over Political Debanking | Cindy Harper, Reclaim The Net Four companies that collectively control how most Americans buy and sell things received warning letters this week from FTC Chairman Andrew Ferguson, threatening enforcement action if they deny customers access to financial services based on political or religious beliefs. The targets are Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, and Stripe. As an example, we obtained a copy of the letter sent to Visa for you here. docs.reclaimthenet.org/visa-debanking… The letters didn’t name a single specific violation, and they didn’t need to. The track record is already public. PayPal has frozen accounts of several political commentators. Stripe cut off payment processing for President Trump’s campaign website after January 6, 2021. Both companies have spent years making unilateral decisions about who deserves access to the financial system, hiding behind vague terms of service that give compliance teams almost unlimited discretion. “Full participation in commerce and public life necessarily requires that law-abiding individuals can access, and freely participate in, our financial system,” Chairman Ferguson wrote. “It is inconsistent with American values to deny law-abiding individuals the ability to run their legitimate businesses and feed their families because they attracted the ire of rogue American officials, overzealous activists, or, more worryingly, foreign governments seeking to control public discourse,” he continued. “That is why President Trump’s August 7, 2025, Executive Order on debanking makes clear that it is unacceptable to debank law-abiding citizens due to ‘political affiliations, religious beliefs, or lawful business activities.’” Ferguson’s letters lean on Section 5 of the FTC Act, which prohibits “unfair or deceptive acts or practices.” The logic is that if your terms promise equal access and you cut someone off for their politics, that’s deceptive. “As an American citizen, I abhor and condemn any efforts to debank or otherwise deny law-abiding consumers access,” Ferguson wrote, citing Trump’s August 2025 executive order on debanking. He told Visa and Mastercard they’re responsible not just for their own conduct but for member banks on their networks. “Equally concerning is the conduct of payments providers and payment networks that turn a blind eye when their financial institution members debank consumers for these reasons,” he wrote. PayPal declined to comment. Visa and Mastercard didn’t respond. Only Stripe pushed back: “At Stripe, we do not restrict access to our services based on political viewpoints or affiliation.” Ferguson’s letters describe payment services as “essential for Americans’ participation in everyday commerce, and, directly or indirectly, for the exercise of core rights and freedoms.” It treats access to payment infrastructure not as a privilege companies can revoke at will, but as something closer to a necessity. The real question is whether letters become action. The FTC opened no investigations and announced no penalties. reclaimthenet.org/ftc-warns-visa…

@OwenGregorian How is this not illegal and impeding law enforcement? Hello @FBI @DHSgov

Chicago-Area College Paper Launches 'ICE Tracker' to Impede Immigration Enforcement Just Days After Illegal Alien Murdered Local University Freshman Sheridan Gorman | Cassandra MacDonald, The Gateway Pundit The student newspaper at Dominican University, located just west of Chicago, has launched an “ICE Tracker” mapping Immigration and Customs Enforcement activity in surrounding neighborhoods, just days after an illegal alien from Venezuela was charged in the murder of 18-year-old Loyola University Chicago freshman Sheridan Gorman. The Dominican Star announced its effort to impede immigration enforcement on Wednesday. The paper said it was directly inspired by a similar tracker created last fall by The Loyola Phoenix, the student newspaper at Gorman’s university. Staff from the two papers even met to share details on how to build and operate the tool. “We became inspired by their initiative and decided to create our own addition to serve the Dominican University community,” the Dominican Star editorial team wrote. “After having a meeting with [Loyola Phoenix editor-in-chief Lilli Malone and managing editor Julia Pentasuglio], we gathered more information to make this launch possible.” The tracker consists of an online map with pins marking confirmed ICE activity. Readers are asked to submit tips via the paper’s Instagram, Facebook, or email, including photos or videos taken from a safe distance, along with the location, time, number of agents, and vehicle details if possible. The paper’s staff says it will verify reports before adding them to the map and will also monitor local community Facebook groups for additional sightings. The launch comes amid intense national attention on the killing of Gorman. On the night of March 19, the 18-year-old student was shot and killed while walking with friends near the pier at Tobey Prinz Beach in Chicago’s Rogers Park neighborhood. Chicago police say 25-year-old Jose Medina-Medina, a Venezuelan national, approached the group wearing dark clothing and a mask, produced a handgun, and fired. Gorman was struck in the back; the bullet exited through her neck. She was pronounced dead at the scene. Authorities have described the shooting as random and have charged Medina-Medina with first-degree murder, attempted murder, and aggravated discharge of a firearm. He remains in custody. The Department of Homeland Security confirmed that Medina-Medina is a “Venezuelan criminal illegal alien” who was apprehended by U.S. Border Patrol on May 9, 2023, and released into the United States under Biden administration policies. One month later, he was arrested for shoplifting in Chicago but was released again. ICE has lodged a detainer requesting that he be turned over to federal immigration authorities after any state proceedings conclude. The Dominican Star’s announcement did not mention Gorman’s murder. The Loyola Phoenix, whose own student was the victim, had already been running its ICE tracker since October 2025 and continues to promote it. The paper drew criticism earlier this month after it posted, and then quickly removed, a social-media headline that referred to the suspect as an “Immigrant Man Charged in Murder of Sheridan Gorman, DHS Involved.” An editor’s note later explained that the wording “didn’t reflect the most important elements in the story” and was taken down “to prevent any further harm to affected community members.” thegatewaypundit.com/2026/03/chicag…

A popular hypothetical is "would you kill Hitler before he started WWIII if you had the chance?" Often implying the choice is clear. What if Khamenei was on the path to becoming today's Hitler? Would that change how people view the current situation? Would it put our 47 year appeasement policy in a different light? Whether the specifics of this action were the right choice or not will be debated, but I am curious as to how many more _decades_ of terror, or the building threat they represent, the world is supposed to ignore before there are consequences. "Not the US's problem" "Let the regional powers deal with Iran" Valid points - but sometimes it requires a strong leader to get the ball rolling and tip the scales when the problem child has been allowed to be the unencumbered bully for so long.

@schwarz @AnnCoulter The fact they've been attacking us indirectly for 47 years shows why we needed to put an end to it. It also shows our weakness for 47 years.

Look, the fact that Iran is fighting back shows how they are crazy and we had no choice but to attack them

@laralogan I believe it's flag signals for "we surrender"

What does this say?

@libsoftiktok Charge him with theft!

Welcome to the UK You’re allowed to fly the lSlS flag, Hamas flag, pride flag… Which flag is not allowed? The British flag.

@ianmiles I'm sure there must have been a Union Jack some palace there. Just kidding...of course not.

Britain has become a circus. Pride flags, trans flags, Hezbollah flags. ISIS flags. Hamas flags. All at once.

@DrChrisCombs What is "mathS"? There's your first clue

Evan you might want to ask for a refund

This is pretty awesome.

@ibuildthecloud @Apple *couldn't

@ibuildthecloud @Apple If they did that they could change things randomly on a whim.

When you think about it, the fact that @Apple doesn't release info about their hardware so open source can build drivers for it is stupid. There's no downside. Sure they would have to put some effort into it, but it can only make things better.
