A Russian spa in San Francisco named Archimedes Banya stirred up controversy after it excluded transgender people from its "ladies only" night in order to preserve the "phallic-free" space.

Moosehead Breweries, located in the province of New Brunswick that's northeast of Maine, said it's now selling the "Presidential Pack," which includes 1,461 cans of its Canadian Lagers. That's one beer for every day of Trump's term, the brewery said.

A Missouri judge has found China's communist leadership liable in a multi-billion dollar case over the regime's hoarding of medical supplies during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is liable for $24 billion in damages to Missouri for exacerbating the pandemic by obstructing American access to medical supplies, the judgment found.

The Department of Homeland Security confirmed over the weekend that Immigration and Customs Enforcement detained Mahmoud Khalil, a Syrian-born activist leader of a pro-Hamas group tied to disruptive and violent protests at Columbia University last year.

Fox News' Alexis McAdams referred to Khalil as "a prominent Palestinian activist" who was apprehended at "his university-owned apartment on the city's Upper West Side" on Saturday evening. She noted that, according to students, Khalil was "a leader of protests and encampments on the Columbia University campus for months."

He will not be staying in the US for much longer. Under Biden he would have been fast tracked to a Green Card.

The manufactured state of Israel is the biggest threat to free speech in 'Murica thanks to our government being captured by zionists and their accomplices. When you can protest your own government but not the government of another nation is it really *your* government anymore?

Israel and it's prime minister are the subject of more protests in Canada than domestic concerns.

Under Biden congress passed a bill equating anti-zionism to anti-semitism even though there are plenty of jews all over the world who are anti-zionist. It was prelude to a crackdown on the 1st amendment rights of people who criticize Israel over its genocidal slaughter of Palestinians.

The current administration picked up that ball and is running with it; there will be more arrests and other punitive measures targeting protesters and outspoken critics simply to protect Israel and its settler-colonial project.

Trump and his whole administration would rather wipe their asses with the USA's constitution than allow 'Murican citizens or anyone else to openly express displeasure with Israel and its crimes against humanity.

To be clear, there is no genocide of "Palestinians."  Look up genocide.  What is happening in Gaza isn't genocide, it's collateral damage resulting from war. Save the narrative of the group calling themselves "Palestinians", it doesn't stand against the test of history should anyone care to check. The notion of Palestine as a country is about 60 years old, having been invented in 1964.  Since that time lies have become truth to some. Nevertheless, they are still lies.

It was a federal anti-discrimination law that bars discrimination based on shared ancestry, ethnic characteristics or national origin. It provides protection to Israelis, Arabs, Chinese, Indians, anybody from any country.

In theory, maybe.
In practice...
...it shields "Israelis" of Polish descent like NuttyYahoo far more than other classes/categories.

It isn't the first time the USA's government said one thing then did another and I daresay it won't be the last.

Rosie O'Donnell confirmed that she has fled to Ireland and suggested that politics were at least partly the reason for her emigration.

O'Donnell said on the video posted to her official TikTok account that she moved away in January.

She hinted that she might return to the U.S. if the political situation reverses.

Here's the video of O'Donnell's statement:

I think protests should be against a country's own government instead of a foreign one..

But, protesters know former Prime Minister Trudeau will not invoke the Emergenices Act on protests against foreign governments.
