The beautiful Johannesburg City Library shut for 3 years by an inept city administration. At least R30-million spent on a mystery fix and another R30-million to go. An empty library which could feed so many minds is a tragedy. Shout! This is a travesty. This is corruption.

He called people who die in the military in service to our country losers, suckers. And reinforced that by going to Arlington National Cemetery and trying to use it for a political advantage for himself. Another sign of his disrespect. He is a total impostor. #TrumpDishonorsUS

It is a *little* weird that "age concerns" have disappeared as a constant focus of campaign reporting and discussion even though the GOP nominee would be the oldest man ever sworn in to the office and is very obviously sharply declining before our eyes.

The Hostage Families Forum Headquarters, an NGO pushing for a deal to secure the release of the hostages, called for mass protests against Netanyahu: “Netanyahu abandoned the hostages. Starting tomorrow the country will tremble.“

Tonight we received devastating news that Hersh Goldberg-Polin and 5 other hostages were murdered by Hamas. Just days ago at the Democratic convention, we were greatly moved by the courageous testimonial of Hersh’s parents. As we mourn with them and the families of the other

You see all these Israelis? I'd venture to say that almost all believe Hamas committed unspeakable evil on 10/7, is a terrorist menace, deserves to be eliminated as a security or political factor...AND that Netanyahu's policies have been a disaster, he has failed the hostages, he

A must read article by CNN, which correctly warns that Elon Musk’s posts, and the lack of scrutiny they receive from his company’s own fact-checking system, “lay bare how Musk has turned X into a pro-Trump machine.” cnn.com/2024/09/03/med…

Kamala Harris: Our kids are sitting in a classroom where they should be fulfilling their god given potential, and some part of their big beautiful brain is concerned about a shooter busting through the door of the classroom. It does not have to be this way.

Two months ago this pass would have resulted in a turnover. But Caitlin Clark teammates now know to expect Magic, so they’re ready for it. If you watch closely you realize that she decided on this pass by midcourt. Ball don’t lie.

"These are kids who, maybe if they have one too many bong hits, are not going to show up and pull the lever for anybody on Election Day because they're not going to get off the couch." Jonathan Martin is not convinced of Donald Trump's strategy to mobilize the manoverse.

Enough is enough. I am many things, but neither insane nor an appeaser. Hamas is evil. It murdered hostages. And the NYPost must be held accountable for its defamatory headlines and actions. status.news/p/randi-weinga…

The 14 year old Georgia school-shooter is being charged as an adult. The adult politicians who make assault weapons more available than schoolbooks remain uncharged and on the loose.
