BREAKING: The Philly Bike Boycott has reportedly ended early because of the overwhelming number of counterprotestors who showed up.
Notice which side is fully masked to hide their identities.

Repost the psycho Asian attack video every single day until Temu Mulan faces academic consequences at the University of Michigan. @UMich
🚨🚨 I have just been informed by @ReawakenUSA CEO @realjamesowen that he was called by @UMich and asked to have my video of yesterday’s attack removed due to negative blowback on lunatic, Temulun Togochog
I’ll repost it every day until she’s expelled and charged.

It doesn’t seem like it’s hard to grasp that I think both Rogers and El-Sayed are both loathsome scumbags. I would not vote for either. And not in that generic “politicians suck” kind of way.
Both are utterly unacceptable and no matter who wins it will be a stain on this nation. Pick your poison - short term poison or long term poison.
Rogers is an election denying bigot who will pass a national abortion ban and accelerate the elimination of trans women from American life
El-Sayed obviously is more sympathetic to Jiihadists than American interests. He obviously hates Jews. He represents an existential threat to our party, a fringe left cancer that is making us unelectable.
A primary system that produces these kinds of candidates is a primary system that will destroy our country.

What would you do if someone threw acid in your face or shot you in the eyes with a shotgun?
Look at these beautiful women. Yes, bravery is beautiful. Bullets took their eyesight. Acid scarred their faces. But they are still fighting not just for themselves but to protect all women from Islamists terrorists.
On November 9, these women will enter the German Parliament. They will stand alongside courageous women who have survived prison, torture, persecution, and authoritarian regimes.
This gathering is deeply personal to me.
In 2025, during Berlin Freedom Week, I met Julia Klöckner, President of the German Bundestag. Our conversation inspired a vision that is now taking shape.
Evelyn Zupke, Germany’s Federal Commissioner for the Victims of the SED Dictatorship, is hosting our Women Summit.
The participation of Julia Klöckner the President of Bundestag and Yaël Braun-Pivet, President of the French National Assembly, brings an important international parliamentary dimension to our shared commitment to women’s freedom.
Women from Iran, Afghanistan, and other authoritarian countries who have been denied education, erased from public life, imprisoned, flogged, sexually assaulted, and sentenced to death for demanding freedom and security.

Jerry Coyne and Douglas Futuyma are right. The Neo-Darwinian Synthesis grows in strength and stature as more and more data arrive to fill in the details. Cries for a major revolution are a vanity trip..

🎶 “I Think I Just Freed Palestine” 🎶
A heartfelt musical tribute to performative activism, where the slogans are loud, the Jew-hate is palpable, knowledge is optional, and the results are nonexistent.
Please support my original work by sharing directly from my post.

Scientists & science journalists decry the public's rejection of science, but are oblivious to the major cause: the perception, sometimes correct, that scientists are just another political faction. Among the guiltiest perpetrators are the recent editors of Scientific American, who turned this once-beloved treasure into a left-wing propaganda rag. This absolutely does not justify the Trump administration's unconstitutional meddling, but the new owners are right to restore it to its mission of explaining science to Americans.

Look at their faces. You can barely read their names and their age without breaking into tears.
The Islamic Republic is preparing to hang these innocent women and men.
Stopping these executions must be a global emergency. Every second counts.
Say their names. Stop the hangings NOW.

Always a pleasure to pose for my old pal @imageplotter
And of course I couldn't leave Downing Street without some shots of its longest, most famous resident, the Larrmaster himself, @Number10cat. Cute as a button, a bit wobbly, but doing well considering he just had an op. Fur will soon be growing over that scar. Love'ya, Larry!

Let me introduce you to another Iranian woman who received 74 lashes for removing her hijab in public.
A woman from Tehran sent me this video showing the scars left on her body. Her crime? Refusing to cover her hair.
Mohammad Marandi, one of the Islamic Republic’s defenders in Western media, justified the flogging of women by saying: “It’s not like hitting a horse. It was a very light strike, in a particular way.”
Look at her wounded body. Does this look like a light strike to you?
74 lashes. For showing her hair. In the 21st century.
To those who still deny the suffering of Iranian women: Look at these scars. Look at what this regime does to women who demand control over their own bodies.
The Islamic Republic whips women in Persian and then tries to justify it in English.
We will not let them hide the scars. We will not let them silence these women.

NYC Pro-Palestine activists say they are “proud” of the October 7th massacre calling it “one of the greatest days” of their life.
1,200 people were massacred by Palestinian terrorists during the attack including 39 children.

The 85-year-old who chose to die to save his family.
On October 7, Hamas terrorists went from house to house in Kibbutz Nahal Oz.
Shlomo Ron, 85, understood what was happening - but he had a plan.
He told his wife, two daughters, and grandson to hide in the safe room. They tried to convince him to come inside with them.
He refused.
Shlomo believed that if the terrorists entered and found an old man sitting alone in the living room, they would assume he lived alone, kill him, and move on without searching the rest of the house.
So he sat down in his armchair and waited.
The terrorists entered.
They saw Shlomo alone.
They shot him dead—and moved on without searching the rest of the house.
Exactly as he had hoped.
His wife, daughters, and grandson survived.
Shlomo Ron, one of the founders of Nahal Oz, was 85 years old and unarmed.
His final act was to give his life to protect his family.

The Green Party’s decision today that “Zionism Is Racism” is a commitment to destroying the State of Israel and purging the UK of its 200,000 Jews. Who don’t even make a dent in the British electorate.
It will force Labour’s hand to do the same in order to compete for the vote of extremists. And what will result will be worse than Corbynism.
Non-Jews I know you don’t want to use your voice or inconvenience yourselves. But here is your warning. The hate you tolerate towards others will eventually come back to bite you.
