As the winter season kicks in, scammers are not missing the chance to target senior British residents with bogus "winter heating allowance" and "cost of living support" scam texts.
“The head of Center for Immigration Studies -#Project2025 Advisory Board member, published an op-ed after Trump's victory w/ headline “Message to Illegals: Winter Is Coming, So Get Ahead of It,” encouraging immigrants in US to “self-deport” before they're forcibly removed.
Trump allies suddenly feel comfortable touting Project 2025.

Among the most disturbing things I have ever read.
The petty whims of a single tech oligarch could undermine the lives of hundreds of millions of people.
They keep repeating the same lie.
Fascists and terrorists are not victims nor innocent.
The disgusting AP is pretending that these hooligans were attacked for no reason or they were targeted because they are Jewish.
Israeli fans were assaulted after a soccer game in Amsterdam by hordes of young people apparently riled up by calls on social media to target Jewish people, Dutch authorities said Friday. Five people were treated at hospitals and dozens were arrested after the attacks, which were condemned as antisemitic by authorities in #Amsterdam, #Israel and across #Europe.

Haim Bresheeth is a 79-year-old Jewish peace activist. His parents survived the Holocaust. He grew up in Israel, and fighting in two wars for the country turned him into a pacifist. Because he now opposes Israel’s genocide in Gaza and decades-long oppression of Palestinian people, police arrested him last week under the Terrorism Act.

Taken! I made someone happy!!!
I still have my first computer, an Osborne Executive with all of its original software and manuals. It still worked great when I last booted it up in 1999. We're really trying to not hang on to stuff forever, so it's heading for the electronics recycling in a week unless someone wants it. Free, but I don't think I can deal with shipping it anywhere, so pick-up in Woburn, MA.

“Hezbollah stronghold” is a term pretty much every corporate media outlet has proved itself hopelessly addicted to when describing the densely populated neighborhood of Dahiyeh in the Lebanese capital of Beirut. The term effectively converts the diverse community into a legitimate military target, its inhabitants dehumanized by the linguistic arsenal of a media establishment that is ultimately committed to validating Israeli massacres of civilians.
I am unhappy, however, that the whole thing happened in the first place.
Agreed.
The US should befriended Russia in 1991 -- but chose a psychopathic course instead.
NATO should of disbanded, right along with the Warsaw Pact.
1 - Israelis attack personal property
2- Israelis attack taxi drivers
3- Israelis chant "“Let the IDF win to Fuck the Arabs”
4- Israelis get beat up
5- Israelis start to market the story under the title "savage Islamic migrants attack peaceful Jews"
6- Israelis call it a pogrom against Jews
7- Israeli government and social media accounts exploit the event to the maximum to market / justify their genocidal war on Gaza and rally Europeans around their "cause" in "defending against terrorists"
