THERE ARE THOUSANDS, SO IS THIS A SURPRISE? A SpaceX Starlink satellite is tumbling and falling out of space after partial breakup in orbit.
REMEMBER, TRUMP IS ALLEGEDLY OVER THE TOP, AND THE ESTABLISHMENT IS ALLEGEDLY CALM AND SANE:

WELL, THERE’S NO WELL-OILED MEDIA/NONPROFIT/GOVERNMENTAL MACHINE OPERATING ON BEHALF OF WHITE GUYS:
When Gorge Floyd died in police custody a decent percentage of black America protested and rioted, it caused an entire cultural revolution
When a decades long conspiracy to exclude white men from society is revealed the response is to shrug and say "What can be done?" https://t.co/PaRZRbVi1O

BLOW THOSE ALL DAY LONG AND WATCH THE FUN: University of Minnesota gender studies program offers whistles to âalertâ peers of suspected ICE activity.

UPDATE:
Once again, Trump didn't need them to find 11,780 votes. . . his lawyers had already found that in spades and merely needed the Secretary of State to actually enforce the law or the Court to hear his case. https://t.co/NioPWLiTx8

She admitted she had not seen the document before the hearing but claimed she allowed him to bill ‘160 hours a week,’ 23 hours per day. She later corrected herself, but the video quickly went viral.”

JOHN HAWKINS: The 30 Most Obnoxious Quotes of 2025. Not surprised that Elie Mystal made the list, though a bit surprised he didn’t make the top half.
