I THINK YOU CAN SKIP IT FOR K THRU 6. Why the Birth Control Talk Deserves a Spot on Every Back-to-School Checklist.
HE’S A DEMOCRAT, ULTIMATELY.
I live in Pennsylvania; Josh Shapiro is the governor of my state. Until this incident I thought he was one of the least bad Democrats – I believed he was above the kind of sleazy demogogic move that he just tried to pull.
I didn't think his chances of being the Democratic… https://t.co/ArWgfVlCtE

THE LEFT DEFENDS ITS OWN. RUTHLESSLY.
There exists no person who could have exposed Jason Arday and not have their life turned upside down https://t.co/5rUy5D5haT

THE POLICY IS WORKING: International applicants fall 10% as Trump polices focus on student visa enforcement.
HAHAHA: Shot:
President Trump U.S. the Master Trolling Expert. And that's why he did it. To troll his opponents. It's fun watching them melt down over everything.

Chaser:

UPDATE:
🚨 LMAO! BILL MAHER JUST DROPPED:
"Trump [renamed] Lake Ontario to Lake America — liberals are VERY pissed at this. They say, 'you can't just go around renaming things to suit your agenda!'"
"Just ask my LatinX birthing person!"

KAROL MARKOWICZ: My kids can go to any college they want — but I won’t pay for Harvard or Columbia. Yale’s no prize either.
HAHA:
He’s beyond tiresome, and you’d have to have a heart of stone to not enjoy the blue on blue violence going on here. https://t.co/mWNkxxLbzP

RACIST? TERRORISM? THESE ARE INDIGENOUS PEOPLE RESISTING SETTLER COLONIALISM:

Translated: “A mob of racists is blowing up and burning the migrants’ cabins in Ceuta. Far-right terrorism live.”
UPDATE: Heh.
Everybody loves decolonisation until Europeans start doing it.

I LIKE THIS:
At a place where Tennessee welcomes the world, it is fitting that BNA would bear @DollyParton’s name.
Today, in partnership with @Fly_Nashville, we announced our intent to honor Tennessee’s favorite daughter and her indelible legacy.

Well, to be fair, Democrats work for the CCP now, not Americans.
THE 21ST CENTURY IS NOT TURNING OUT AS I’D HOPED:
The feud between Africans and black Americans has produced some of the funniest intra-race racist material I have ever seen.
And I say that as an Asian. https://t.co/xxzLOz5x4Q

TEACH WOMEN NOT TO RAPE — AND, ER, WHATEVER THE HELL ELSE THIS IS: Teacher accused of ‘Scream’ mask orgies with students finally gets divorced. “Brittany Fortinberry, 33 — who was hit with nearly 50 charges in the disturbing underage group sex case — and her husband, Nicholas Fortinberry, finalized their divorce Monday, according to TMZ. . . . Fortinberry is accused of plying students as young as 13 with alcohol and magic mushrooms before having sex with them, according to prosecutors. In at least one incident, she allegedly had the boys wear masks from the “Scream” movie franchise, according to police.”
NO. NEXT QUESTION? Can Abdul el Sayed be trusted with intelligence community secrets?
To be fair, these days I’m not sure the intelligence community can be trusted with that stuff.
WELL, THAT’S NO FUN: SSRI Victorians Have No Penises or Vaginas.
Despite the claims that Gen Zers aren’t having sex, the hookup scene out our campus bars in Knoxville seems undiminished. These NYT “trend” stories don’t generally stem from the normal-American community.
PEOPLE NEED TO BE PROSECUTED FOR THIS: FBI Followed Catholic Priests, Continued Richmond Memo Work After Removal Order: DOJ Report Finds. “A new Justice Department report reveals that FBI personnel opened investigations into two Catholic priests, conducted surveillance tied to the Richmond Catholic Memo, and continued revising the memo after headquarters ordered it deleted.”
TRUMP IS CRUSHING IRAN WITH ALMOST NO (U.S.) CASUALTIES, AND PEOPLE ARE BITCHING:
FACT CHECK: True https://t.co/w4VFRoE6uS

OPEN THREAD: Ring in the weekend.
MOVE THE OBSERVATORIES TO THE FAR SIDE OF THE MOON, LIKE GOD AND ROBERT HEINLEIN INTENDED. Massive space mirrors could be 40 times brighter than the full moon, astronomers warn. ‘It will be worse than big cities like London’.
JUST ANOTHER INSTALLMENT IN TRUMP’S ANACONDA STRATEGY:
It’s the Venezuelan dividend.
Take out the brutal dictator who turned a prosperous nation that pumped money out of the ground into a wretched impoverished third world hellhole. Welcome Venezuela back. Cut China and Cuba off from a cheap oil source.
The other part. No accident… https://t.co/2K7RZscSQC

Trump wages financial war on his opponents, and Scott Bessent is his financial Patton, Marco Rubio his diplomatic Eisenhower.
It’s funny that this came out right after Canada walked away from the trade deal.
TEACH WOMEN NOT TO RAPE! (CONT’D): Teacher who acted like she was in ‘Sabrina Carpenter video’ is convicted of decades-old sex assaults on students.
