JUST IN🚨: Hurst PD just dropped the FULL bodycam footage exposing the entitled North Texas driver who turned a simple school zone ticket into a full meltdown arrest! Woman gets pulled over for blasting 40 mph in a 25 mph school zone. Officer calmly hands her the ticket... she straight-up YEETS it out the window like it's trash 😭 Refuses to exit, demands a supervisor, rolls up window → officers pull her out, she hits the ground. Now she's crying excessive force... but the bodycam tells the real story. 🎥: @unlimited_ls

@ThomBrady5 Deportations won’t increase. Trumps running away from it. And now they’re only focused on “criminals” which is basically every modern admin ever.
English
the number one reason mass deportations will increase is because last year we put a frivolous Girlboss in charge and still managed to deport 3 million foreigners (400k removals, the rest self-deportations), and now a serious man is taking over.
T@walterwhitepill
ICE now has a budget the size of the United States Marine Corps and it's only starting to be put to use. Bullish on deportations and even more bullish on self-deportations as we cut non-citizens out of our welfare and Medicaid systems, in addition to potentially banking (huge)

They bury the Dad’s full quote at the end of the article. And they REALLY buried the lede.
“Simmons recalled something his son had told him before volunteering for the mission that ended his life.
“He said, ‘Dad, I can’t give you any details, but if civilians knew what we knew, a lot of the criticism [of the war] would cease,” he said.
Simmons came away from Dover with a better impression of the war’s architects than he had when he arrived. Trump teared up and hugged him, evincing warmth and compassion at odds with the president’s public persona, Simmons said. He also credited Trump for looking him “straight in the eye.”
“He extended his condolences father to father and conveyed how difficult it is to make decisions to put the children of other parents in peril,” Simmons said.
As for Hegseth, “When I talked to him, I got the impression that he was torn because he seemed to be a very compassionate man, faced with difficult decisions as it pertains to war,” Simmons said.
“I also let him know that Tyler was my only son. And you could see the emotion on his face. And I think those kinds of things you can’t fake,” he continued.
“I was pleasantly surprised because the perception is they [Trump and Hegseth] don’t care, they’re going to do what they want to do,” he said. “I got to see a different side of them up close and personal.”

BREAKING NBC: Pete Hegseth says 'family after family' of service members killed urged the admin to "not stop until the job is done." But the father of one of those service members says he never said that. "I can't speak for the other families. When he spoke to me, that was not something we talked about." nbcnews.com/politics/donal…

@patriotsoph1776 @joelrushing @JamesLaverty45 @bethanyshondark I didn’t say he needs permission, I said he needs to make the case. He hasn’t, what is the goal? How does this benefit us?

@synthwavepen @joelrushing @JamesLaverty45 @bethanyshondark The last time Congress declared war was THE DAY AFTER 2,403 people were killed at Pear Harbor.
No, the public didn’t have a say.
War Powers Resolution of 1973 allows the President to take military action w/o Congress approval.
No public say.

@crasx59 @JamesLaverty45 @bethanyshondark No I voted for the guy who promised no new wars and mass deportations.
Not sure where the fuck he went

@WeirdGutFeeling @JamesLaverty45 @bethanyshondark I’m not rooting for “the enemy”. I just don’t see why we’re involved. This doesn’t serve America.
I’d rather focus on deporting the foreign invaders in our country.

@joelrushing @JamesLaverty45 @bethanyshondark Generally people make the case for war to the public before going in.

@synthwavepen @JamesLaverty45 @bethanyshondark Oh no, they should definitely share all classified intel with every rando on X and get their approval before taken any action.

I don’t think Crimson Desert is for me, but it seems there’s a rush to make a judgement from drive by streamers and onlookers to make a judgement on a massive 100 hour game in about five minutes based on vibes

Canada, Australia, the UK, and USA all practiced defacto open borders, flooding their countries with foreigners.
All nations experienced a massive decline in happiness while that occurred.

Canada has observed the largest decline in happiness in the world (along with the UK)

@revenant_MMXX Yep you see this with games like Destiny — MMO lite that got jumped on by streamers and forced to become an endless grindathon

Say it again: social media ruined hobbies by turning them from something you do out of love and genuine enjoyment into something you do for the spectacle and attention. Every hobby is infected. People who are guilty get very mad when you point it out because they know it's true.
@
This recent stuff about just playing RE games is eye opening honestly, I didn't think it was this bad. Just how much of gaming discourse over the last decade was steered entirely by people who don't play games and just engage in fandom spaces? Hell how much discourse about anime too? has hobby discourse just been one big Platos cave? have our hobbies and video games been making adjustments and changes entirely based on people who have never gone near what they demand be changed and know actually very little about it. All because its disrupting their social hang out space and not actually out of any personal investment or knowledge of the thing itself.

Also at times in my life when I didn’t have money to afford even a few hundred dollar console, I didn’t concern myself with the latest Pokemon game.
I focused on getting life into gear

in my opinion, if you don't have the means to experience a videogame yourself then you should simply not be a fan of it, there are more hobbies out there

There’s a conversation happening on TikTok where the girls are finally talking about how a lot of men aren’t actually attractive.
Like you go to the grocery store and see a ton of stunning women, but men? You will remember how many months back you last saw a hot man.
