A university's curriculum is not classified information. The public has a right to see what students are being taught. UNC-Chapel Hill refused to release materials for 29 courses, leading @DefendingEd to take legal action.

When I spoke at the UN in Geneva they cleared the room after me of all women because the Taliban would not entertain them in their Meeting! Disgraceful useless out of date organisation
The UN are clearly UNfit for women.
We are dismayed (to say the very least) that they would even consider a country such as Iran as a member of any body that plays a role in shaping women's rights.
Iran oppresses women and girls. They oppress the female sex. We'll take no lectures from the UN on the rights of women while they even entertain this.

Limerick #727 for 9th November 2026:
Honey trapped was Jensen Huang,
without a dance or song.
With a spy,
he got spry;
will he ever right this wrong?
#Limerick
In the words of Lyle Lovett to an unfaithful love: "God does, but I don't/ God will, but I won't/ And that's the difference between God and me." And tho it's given to us to forgive, it ain't required we do in order to get to heaven.
My God. My God. The pettiness and hatred in that man's heart. He is literally a character in Dante's Inferno. Despite being given so much in life, he hates his enemies more than he fears God. MASSIVE respect to Douthat for posing the question, and then pressing him to answer.

VERDICT ALERT: A unanimous federal jury in deep-blue Tacoma just awarded my client $150,000 for violation of her constitutional rights in this case.
We are also scheduled to go to trial in February against the Department of Corrections in state court on her negligence claims.
LAWSUIT ALERT: My law firm is suing the Washington State Department of Corrections, alleging that our female client was locked in a cage with a biologically male predator who sexually assaulted her.

On Sunday, November 8, 2026, anti-Israel activists in Philadelphia are planning a bicycle protest targeting six Jewish- and Israeli-owned businesses.
The organizers, including a group called Philly Bike On Your Left, have circulated promotional material declaring: “No business for Zionists! These Zionist establishments must go!"
The six targeted establishments include restaurants, a Jewish deli, and even a macaroni-and-cheese shop. One owner says her business has no connection to Israel and believes she may have been singled out because she wears a Star of David.
The timing is particularly disturbing. November 9 marks the anniversary of Kristallnacht, the 1938 Nazi-organized pogrom in which Jewish businesses, homes, and synagogues were attacked and destroyed.

I don't want to shame any particular woman here, but publicly announcing that the #RussellBrand conviction must be wrong because you went home with him and he didn't rape you makes about as much sense as saying 'well, I left 25 Cromwell Street alive, so Fred West's innocent.'

I haven't been on this site for a bit.
But I haven't seen anyone share the photo the New Statesman staff staged in 2013 of Russell Brand as Christ, and themselves as his disciples. It seems to have been scrubbed from the web.
It made me angry then and it makes me angry now.

Nobody wants to end the voucher program more than the rich. They don't want dirty poors clogging up their nice private schools.

My issue is that we all knew he was a snake twenty years ago. Conservatives talked about it. Deciding someone is a good person based on if they spout your politics is what you are accusing the left of,but it's what the right did with him by rehabbing his image for switching sides.
Making him the face of conservatism and Christianity was retarded. The right has a real problem with trying to be cool by associating with deviants over and over. Remember the pR0n couple that are in jail for abuse?
I've made no comment on the trial in this or any other tweet. I'm talking about the whole (just like saville) everybody knew and gave him a pass then we welcomed him

Liberals are always screeching "Its the end of Democracy!" and then democracy happens through an actual vote and they want to nullify it.
They hate democracy.

Thank you everyone that came to parliament today. Labour voted down our amendments to protect our female athletes right to fair & safe sport away from males in international competition on Uk soil. But we won’t give up!
Well, that'll sure bring down those gas prices. But high prices are good actually. Gets people to drive less and 'saves the world'. High food prices? pffft.

I would like to recognize Erin and Protect Kids Colorado for their outstanding work in getting Propositions 133, 134, and 135 on the ballot in Colorado and for educating voters about the importance of these protections for children. The propositions appear to be on track to pass, fingers crossed!
Thank you for the vital work you’re doing to protect children.

No legislating for two years as GOP cared more about blocking Trump than doing any. Now it looks like none for the next two years as Dems care more about lawfare. Good times ahead!

THEN and NOW — Germany’s fuel problem, and Poland’s line.
In 1939, German rearmament ran on synthetic fuel from coal and on oil seized as the war moved east. Hitler framed Poland as “living space” and food supply. Berlin and Moscow carved Polish oil fields; Ploiești and the Caucasus were next on the map. Own the fuel, own the war. Poland never formally surrendered.
Now: Chancellor Friedrich Merz has pledged Germany the “strongest conventional army in Europe,” with defense spending set to climb from about €108 billion toward €152 billion by 2029. Nord Stream remains out of service — Washington and Moscow have both floated restoring it — while Hormuz risk keeps energy markets jumpy.
Berlin’s crude still leans on the Baltic hub at Gdańsk. U.S. LNG lands at German terminals, not Gdańsk. Druzhba deliveries into Germany are shut; Yamal gas has been reversed. There is no quiet “restart” pipe waiting in the wings. In 2006, Radosław Sikorski called Nord Stream a project in the “Molotov-Ribbentrop tradition.”
Inside Poland this week: the Constitutional Tribunal (TK) was taken; Nawrocki cut his trip short. Online claims of “granaty, amunicję” (@AgentSmutnooka) and “LIVE AMMO + STUN GRENADES” (@kewler79) circulated as a leaked KGP order surfaced describing SMGs and non-penetrating shotgun rounds. Polish police framed the posture as a sabotage threat — not an admission that live grenades were issued for protesters.
German police presence inside Poland is verified on video: German-marked vans on the S8 near Łódź / Hotel Górski in Proszenie. No MSWiA, KGP, or bilateral authorization explaining the trip has been published. Direction is disputed — Konkret24 and PolNexus say the convoy was leaving the Warsaw area; other reads put German plates heading into Poland.
Crowds are in the streets by the thousands. The pattern Poles keep naming is familiar: choke the fuel routes, squeeze the borders, hold the line.

This is why girls like me are speaking up. Temporary gas prices are not a reason to elect people who think boys belong in our locker rooms and bathrooms, or who support groups that want schools keeping secrets from our parents. Common sense over crazy.
