As he shares a graph from G. Elliott Morris showing Trump polling underwater on all key issues, Simon Rosenberg says,
"Trump is not having the victory lap week he thought he was going to have. The mounting death toll in Texas is a searing reminder of the harms his 'more for me, less for all of you' agenda has brought to the country. The ongoing Epstein fiasco has been ugly for him in many, many ways."

Palestinians have delivered testimony after testimony about the Israeli-backed and U.S.-run “death traps” masquerading as aid sites. But no one listened until Haaretz published direct testimony from the perpetrators.

Israel, through Netanyahu, his fascist collaborators, and a host of enablers (hello Canada and your national broadcaster, CBC), has turned itself from a tenuous oasis for the oppressed into a textbook humanitarian disgrace.
These are inexcusable offences against Jews and Judaism as much as they are against Palestinians.
The perpetrator's first crime is always against himself and his own humanity.

The image depicts a scene set on a large, futuristic space station or platform. In the foreground, a woman in a long blue dress stands with her hands clasped, observing the scene. To her right, a man in an orange jumpsuit with a helmet and gloves is also looking down, while a group of individuals in various attire, including robes and helmets, stand behind him, observing the activity below. The background features a massive, complex structure with a large, spherical section suspended above a platform, with several smaller spacecraft visible in the sky. The platform is populated with numerous figures, some in robes and others in casual attire, engaged in various activities. The overall color palette is muted, with shades of blue, gray, and orange, contributing to a sense of a technologically advanced, possibly dystopian setting.

The image shows a white cat with a shaved body and a cone collar around its neck, sitting on a dark-colored surface. The cat's face is visible through the cone, displaying a grumpy expression with its mouth slightly open and tongue visible. The cat's fur is mostly white, with some areas shaved, particularly around the neck and back. The background includes a light-colored couch and a framed picture on the wall. The text "FUCK OFF" is prominently displayed at the top of the image, and "FUCK ALL THE WAY OFF" is at the bottom, both in bold, white letters with a black outline. The overall tone of the image is humorous, with the cat's expression and the text conveying a sense of annoyance.

The image shows a small turtle being held between a person's thumb and index finger. The turtle has a dark shell with orange and yellow markings, and its head is raised with its mouth open, giving it a surprised or startled expression. The turtle's limbs are extended outward, and its eyes are wide open. The background is blurred, suggesting an outdoor setting with natural light. Overlaid on the image is text in bold, white capital letters with a black outline. The text reads "WOAH WOAH WOAH" at the top and "CALM YOUR TITS" at the bottom. The text is humorous and contrasts with the turtle's expression.

The image is a three-panel comic strip titled "TWONKS." In the first panel, a man in a blue shirt and black pants stands next to a man in a white shirt and red tie, who is sitting on a stool. The man in the blue shirt asks, "CAN I TAKE A PICTURE?" The man in the white shirt responds, "SURE." In the second panel, the man in the blue shirt is holding a phone, while the man in the white shirt is still sitting on the stool. The third panel shows the man in the blue shirt carrying the framed picture away, leaving the man in the white shirt looking at the empty wall where the picture used to be. The comic strip humorously depicts the common scenario of someone taking a picture of a painting and then removing it, leaving the owner confused.

"Automated license plate readers, also known as ALPRs, are usually installed at intersections and capture images of every license plate passing through. The data is stored with law enforcement agencies and can be used to find a vehicle owner’s information.
State law limits who can access the information, who it can be shared with, and how long the data can be kept. However, police agencies in California — including the L.A. Police Department — have illegally shared ALPR data with federal immigration agents, CalMatters reported.

Wer sich über den angeblichen „Deckelungsvorschlag für Kinder mit Migrationshintergrund“ der Bildungsministerin aufgeregt hat (ich gehörte dazu), dem kann ich dieses wieder einmal exzellente „Altpapier“ sehr ans Herz legen (allen anderen auch). Spoiler: Es war alles ganz anders!
„Prien argumentiert aber im Kontext des Gesprächs nicht für eine solche Deckelung. Sie argumentiert für Sprachtests und Frühförderung. Für elterliche Verantwortung, unabhängig von der Herkunft. Und für einen Blick nach Kanada. Die Deckelung nennt sie zwar "denkbar", um dann aber nur Argumente gegen sie vorzubringen (nicht nachweislich erfolgversprechend, Sprachtests wichtiger, andere Modelle interessanter, PISA-Problem vielschichtiger).“
