You can smell the anger across the UK tonight. Decent people have had enough…

@ThatEricAlper I think "Kissing A Fool" is one of the most underrated songs ever written. Truly an extraordinary masterpiece.

"Faith" "Father Figure" "I Want Your Sex" "One More Try" "Hard Day" "Hand to Mouth" "Look at Your Hands" "Monkey" "Kissing a Fool" On this day in 1987, George Michael released Faith, still sounding as perfect as it did back then.

What’s the oldest album that you still listen to regularly?

@1776General_ In the next 48 hours the news will spin this to blame the murder victim.

Are we going to fight for our children or will we keep allowing this?

@RedPillMediaX Poland too, yo be fair

Russia is literally the only White country on earth.

@esjesjesj They don’t have to build now, but they should have to commit to moving portions of their production to The US.

How long does it take for companies to build factories in America, a couple days or so?

@bunzi2020 @elonmusk Nobody supports this. But, it’s important to keep in mind, this is all the left has at this stage. Assuming illegals are even just 10% of their voter base (we all know it’s much higher) they’ll never win an election again.

@elonmusk This is who they are. How can half the country actually support this?

Wow

@Citizen54S @elonmusk Show me the logic on why non citizens should be allowed to vote

@elonmusk No, not "wow" or "interesting" or "concerning." Show us the data on non-citizens illegally voting in federal elections and then delete this comment. And don't rely on Ms. Raichik as a source of accurate information.

@amy_bresnen @elonmusk You think non-citizens should vote?

@elonmusk Yeah. We sue here, Elon. Leave if you don’t like it. 🇺🇸

@Lordlotuskiller @TheStalwart @JohnJHarwood

@TheStalwart @JohnJHarwood Does the chart show what tariff they have on us?

*US TO SLAP 32% TARIFF ON TAIWAN, CHART SHOWS *US TO SLAP 31% TARIFF ON SWITZERLAND, CHART SHOWS *US TO SLAP 49% TARIFF ON CAMBODIA, CHART SHOWS *25% TARIFF ON SOUTH KOREA, CHART SHOWS

@JeckovKanani Rule 1. If you govt is telling you to do something, don’t do it. Rule 2. If your govt is trying to make you do something, REALLY don’t do it.

I fucking admire the unvaccinated! You’re the most courageous group of individuals. You held the line against a $1 trillion propaganda machine, and you told your family, your boss, and the government to fuck off! 🖕 Be proud, my friend—you stood your ground like a fucking warrior. 🥇

@RbiTriples @psychosort This has been fully debunked a million times. I know and work with many people who have risen out of poverty and are now very financially stable. No “banker” stopped them or limited their potential. You can hate capitalism, but that’s a different (and useless) discussion.

A mere 8 hours in NYC and I understand why bankers hate poor people so much now.

@DiabolicalSpuds “It’s difficult to predict the future because there are so many unknowns and variables…” but you have to blindly trust us on this even though we have changed course historically on our “pattern evidence” consistently over the last 100 years. Give me a break.

@tenobrus How much of (male) homosexuality is a direct result of childhood molestation?

getting molested as a child is 300 bodies

@peepeeLEpuke And yet….

Canada is potentially about to elect a Prime Minister with a PhD in economics from Oxford, Mexico elected someone with a degree in physics and a PhD in energy engineering. America elected a barely sentient turnip.

@VintageRockN_85 Both great songs. Perfect songs, really.

Is “Maggie May” by Rod Stewart a better song than “Maybe I’m Amazed” by Paul McCartney?

@ThomasSowell Who is "Hakeem Jeffries?"

Hakeem Jeffries: "We're in the middle of a fight right now as it relates to Pete Hegseth. He needs to resign of be fired by Donald Trump. We’ve made that clear."

@Oilfield_Rando The saddest thing about this video is not her point of view, which she's entitled to, but rather that it has now been engrained in society that we must NEVER associate with people we disagree with, and conversely must never, EVER be open to new ideas or changing our minds.

Look, I’m just glad she’s doing so great. Monologuing alone into her phone in a sterile apartment. I bet she only needed fourteen takes to get the mannerisms and tonality just right. Bright future ahead for this lady as she closes out her 30s.

@DudespostingWs There's a lot to consider, but marrying someone who is easy going can really change the entire state of stability in your life.

Men who are husbands, what’s the most important factors to consider when choosing someone to marry?

@jiratickets I don't think it gets greener than SF. If you're successful, you can't really live in a better city environment.

here in chicago, tech people talk about moving to SF. had a tech friend move to SF. he says in SF, people talk about moving to NYC. where do people in NYC talk about moving to? where does this chain end? when does the grass finally stop getting greener??
