How nice of the Nazis to include a donation envelope for their fascist PAC. Worth the stamp.

A Republican state lawmaker in Minnesota who recently introduced a bill to create a mental illness category for liberals obsessed over Donald Trump was arrested on Tuesday for allegedly soliciting a minor for prostitution. Minnesota senator Justin Eichorn was arrested and booked on Tuesday. He believed he was talking to a 17-year-old female, but was communicating instead with detectives from the Bloomington, Minnesota, police department, police allege. Eichorn, a 40-year-old whose biography on the Minnesota Senate website says he is married with four kids, faces felony charges for soliciting a minor to practice prostitution.

#MurdochJournal attacks peer review as, uh, woke "group think." If the academy is so left-wing, it's amazing how easy it for the Journal, Times, and Post to find right-wing profs to write op-eds.

Francesca Albanese's family recently won a case against punitive US sanctions, but a US appeal has put the sanctions back in place.

Albanese says the sanctioning “equates to a civil death. She is unable to access her bank accounts & savings or continue her work as a lecturer."

Vladimir Putin is said to be 'actively pressuring' Belarus to enter the war on his side, according to UK Defence Journal editor George Allison.

Faustian Bargain.

Its an agreement where someone sacrifices their personal values, morals, or spiritual integrity to gain wealth, power, or some other worldly benefit. It is inherently self-defeating, as the long-term cost ultimately outweighs the short-term gain.

Example >Senator John Cornyn of Texas. A distinguished lawyer , Attorney General and old guard republican thought the whirling chaotic wind of DJT wouldn't get him if he supported Trump 98% of the time. Nope.

It's a race to watch because I can't imagine a more stark difference in decency vs unethical slimebag

It's going to get really dirty

A lot of money involved and #MAGA is the direct topic

oh yeah don't forget: #VOTE

Really, every single non-MAGA American should be so pissed about this

The dictator is literally giving their money away to criminals including the disgusting #Trump family

Not even hiding or nothing, acting like it's a good thing

US Senator Andy Kim pepper-sprayed by #ICE, as he attempted to deescalate ICE confrontation of protestors. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) claimed officers used minimum force against “rioters” and denied a hunger strike, with DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin calling the protest a “political stunt”. Well is it a 'riot', a 'stunt' or a legal protest protected by the Constitution? https://www.independent.co.uk/bulletin/news/andy-kim-pepper-spray-ice-delaney-hall-b2983561.html
