Today is World Homeopathy Day. In its honor, let’s remember that time The Amazing James Randi overdosed on homeopathy and lived to tell about it.

Karoline Leavitt: "we had a very stupid and incompetent leader in this White House for four years who gave away many of our best weapons for nothing, for free, to another country very far away by the name of Ukraine." Honestly, the sheer heartlessness, ruthlessness, and cruelty of saying that while we are still under attack, trying to survive. While entire families are being killed in russian bombings due to a lack of air defense missiles, and when we barely survived last winter’s humanitarian catastrophe caused by russian strikes on our infrastructure. I don’t know... I’m just stunned.

Reporter: Do any of you have a favorite animal? Child: My favorite one is a gold snake that can move. It has gold eyes, and it has a super-duper tail… Reporter: Mr. Mamdani, the second question for you. Mamdani: Yes. It’s also the golden snake.

This killing of Alex Pretti reveals a dark truth about the administration's view of gun rights: they are not universal. They are reserved for the "right" kind of people. If you are a MAGA supporter, your gun is a symbol of freedom. If you are a protester in Minneapolis, your gun is proof of terrorism. The "right to bear arms" has been replaced by the "privilege to bear arms," contingent on political alignment. This is the hallmark of a militia state, not a constitutional republic.

I debated whether to share my story on here, but I guess I will. I think there's an idea out there that millions of violent criminals are pouring across the border, carrying machetes and drugs, looking to harm Americans. Certainly, while some people fall into that category, the vast majority of undocumented immigrants don't. My family escaped Vietnam after the Tet Offensive and went through an arduous journey that eventually landed them in the Canada. My father worked there for a time as a janitor; my mother, a secretary. When work fell through, my dad was offered to work with his sister in the United States, so he went, as our family needed money. He ended up staying in the US longer than he was supposed to — not knowing immigration laws — and asked my mom to come be with him. Of course, she went and carried me over the border while I was still a baby. I'm still unsure whether we technically broke an immigration law. The border between Canada and the United States was pretty porous (as it is today, for the most part). But either way, since I came here without legal documentation, I eventually fell into the category of being an undocumented immigrant. Yet, I've been in the United States since I was a baby. My identity and roots are very much based in this country, no different from anyone else. The lack of legal immigration has totally shaped my life. It has made every interaction with the law much scarier. It has shaped which opportunities I could or could not get. It has taken an emotional toll, as this legal issue hangs over your head like a black cloud. There are millions of people in my situation — people who were brought here as children, some babies, and were unable to raise their hand during this process and say "maybe we should hire a lawyer." Parents may have crossed the border not knowing about the law, as the law can be pretty confusing and lawyers are expensive. Perhaps, in the end, they should have hired a lawyer; but sometimes life is messy. In the end, they crossed for the same reason many people rise every day: to support their families. I think it's unreasonable to deport millions of people who have contributed positively to society. It's simply not true that the majority of these people are violent criminals carrying drugs. Many own small businesses; many work as skilled laborers (including garment workers!). The vast majority are good, honest people. For those of us who grew up in the United States, sending us "back" to our "home" country would mean sending someone to a foreign land, as they grew up in the United States. Tearing families apart based on immigration status seems inhumane. About twenty years ago, I watched with some small measure of hope that the Dream ACT would pass and help a portion of undocumented immigrants. I saw people march angrily in the streets (something I supported). But I was dismayed to see nothing really come about. In fact, when Obama passed DACA, I was skeptical that it would be sensible to give your information to the federal government without a guaranteed path to citizenship. It seems that the Trump administration may use those lists to hunt down immigrants. I think the ICE sweeps are inhumane. I support and admire the protestors who are putting their bodies on the line for non-violent resistance. Ultimately, I think we need to solve this issue on a systemic level. It's unreasonable to me to expect that the government will deport some 10-20 million people. Even deporting 1 million will cause an insane amount of chaos, not to mention an incredible amount of wasteful government spending. The militarization of law enforcement is over the top and only escalate the situation. I have seen people march on this issue, only for it to be dropped later and dissolve into quiet grumbles. In the end, nothing is done for immigrants. Time passes until decades later, we have another political crisis like the one we have today. This cycle seems unsustainable. I hope people sustain this energy to solve the immigration issue and put undocumented immigrants — most who are peaceful, skilled, and hard-working citizens — on a path to citizenship. As time continues to go by, many undocumented immigrants are seeing their lives wasted away. If you care about this issue, I hope you get involved on the long haul: volunteer for pro-immigrant groups, donate to mutual aid, and perhaps pursue career paths that help people in this situation. I was moved to read someone on here say that, when they found their employee was undocumented, they helped them get a green card. The path was difficult, as our immigration system is broken (it took them 11 years). But I can tell you that this is like pulling someone drowning in raging waters. Ultimately, I hope me sharing this story helps push back against the idea that all undocumented immigrants are MS-13 members. I know many people in my position and they are all like your neighbors.

@mikaelmilhoj Jeg får en fæl mistanke om at nogen efter nederlaget i det jyske her mange år senere sidder et magtfuldt sted... youtu.be/X-4Voz0vR3I

Jeg ved ikke helt, om jeg har haft misset noget, men ifølge Det Hvide Hus, er nogle importerede varer fra Kina pålagt _245%_ told og ikke 145%, som jeg egentligt troede. 🤔 whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/20…

@hissgoescobra @hennisdad60512 @evdlindenn It's a direct quote from the very article you link to; second paragraph below the reference to the Boeing report. Why so aggressive?

@hennisdad60512 @evdlindenn Provided a source, dipshit. It’s from Boeing itself. Try again.

Boeing just lost 8,830 plane deliveries to China because of Trump’s ridiculous tariffs over the next 20 years. Boeing is one our greatest American companies. The final assembly and supply-chain job losses will be huge. amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/04/15…

@tweet4Anna_NAFO Europe is broke and the financing of the war will cause bond yields to rise crippling both the government and its people. But, hey, be against peace while destroying your country.

@olebirkolesen Jeg synes skam ikke at der er grund til at vi har ondt af selv, kig blot på tidligere generationers vilkår. Jeg synes bare at du gør din pointe unødigt let at angribe og afpore.

Vi er heller ikke ofre for vores transporttid og vores behov for at sove. Et almindeligt fuldtidsarbejde fylder stadig kun godt en femtedel af vores arbejdsuge. Oven i det kommer mindst fem ugers ferie. Og vi bestemmer selv, om vi vil arbejde så meget. Vores behov for at arbejde for at tjene penge nok til det liv, vi vælger, er ikke synd for os.

En uge har 168 timer. Af disse timer tager et almindeligt fuldtidsarbejde lidt over en femtedel. Så er der næsten fire femtedele af tiden tilbage til familie og fritid. Oven i det kommer mindst fem ugers ferie. Alle er velkomne til at synes, at det er for meget arbejde og at spørge arbejdsgiveren, om det er muligt at arbejde mindre, eller at finde andet arbejde eller at prøve sig af som selvstændig med færre arbejdstimer. Så jeg synes, vi skal lade være med at tale, som om vi er ofre for vores arbejde, og at det er meget svært at balancere familie- og fritidsliv med arbejdslivet i Danmark. Vi har altid et valg, især i et rigt land som Danmark.

@MMadsenDK @JWDalsager Pil vores flag af din profil, landsforræder

@JWDalsager Hvor er det dejligt med en amerikansk præsident der er ærlig.

USA: "Vi er trætte af at stå for verdensfreden. Klar jer selv." Også USA: "Vi skal bruge Grønland fordi noget med international verdensfred." Go figure.

@The2wheelterror @awakenowzone @nexta_tv I hate to admit it, but what a great comeback. Well played, sir.

@skippermiks @awakenowzone @nexta_tv It is quite literally the origin story of the royal family but go on 😂😂😂

European Companies Begin to Boycott the U.S. Is a Trade War on the Horizon? The major Norwegian marine fuel company Haltbakk Bunkers has halted fuel supplies to U.S. Navy ships and called on other companies to follow its lead.

I can’t believe this needs to be said. TransGENIC mice are not TransGENDER mice

@The2wheelterror @awakenowzone @nexta_tv Inbreeding is frowned upon in Europe; in most of the world actually. I think it's only in the US it's accepted and widespread.

@skippermiks @awakenowzone @nexta_tv Do you blow your dad with that mouth?

@jaaampott @SrenKVillemoes Følger Nazi-streameren med som standard, eller er det ekstraudstyr?

@SrenKVillemoes Jeg har lige bestilt den nye model Y. Der vil være mere retvisende tal, når Juniper (som den hedder) er at se på gaden, og deres fulde sortiment er tilgængeligt.

Og salget af Teslaer i Europa er faldet med cirka 50% sammenlignet med samme tid sidste år.

@KyivIndependent Zelensky absolutely shit the bed and ruined relations with Ukraine’s biggest financial backer.

⚡️Top US officials, lawmakers lambast Zelensky over White House clash with Trump. A number of U.S. officials and Republican lawmakers are continuing their criticism of President Volodymyr Zelensky, with some suggesting that Zelensky may have to resign, following the president's heated exchange at the White House with U.S. President Donald Trump on Feb. 28. kyivindependent.com/top-us-officia…
