Repulsive. All faggits should be butchered in the streets. BTW, I'm reading conflicting reports as to if this is officially put on by the government or not.

I cannot confirm it either.

Google co founder Sergey Brin who was once one of the Dems more reliable billionaire donors now appears to be moving away from the party. The shift seems to be caused by his opposition to Gavin Newsom's policies.

Brin is Jewish so I suspect that his shift is more related to the Dems not being vocal enough in support of Israel, campus antisemitism from the Gaza War, defending Iran, etc.

The Chinese government stepped in to block Mark Zuckerberg's Meta from completing a company takeover in what has been described as an extraordinary late-stage intervention.

In December for $2 billion, Meta acquired Manus AI, an agentic AI that resembles chatbots like ChatGPT. However, its differentiating factor has been that Manus AI "independently plans and completes" tasks without the need for continuous prompts from the user.

The company is Chinese founded but has since settled in Singapore. This did not stop China's National Development and Reform Commission from rejecting the acquisition, in what was labeled as a mandatory "unwinding."

The commission reportedly said in a statement that it was prohibiting foreign investment in Manus in accordance with laws and regulations. It also said that Meta's acquisition had violated Chinese rules on foreign investment.

Mr. Brin is not religious. And he did attend Mr. Trump's second term inauguration.

It would not be accurate to put him in the same category as the Soros family.

Supreme Court ruling weakens a key tool of the Voting Rights Act



The Supreme Court on Wednesday struck down Louisiana's second majority Black congressional district in a decision that could open the door for Republican-led states to eliminate Black and Latino electoral districts that tend to favor Democrats and affect the balance of power in Congress.

In a 6-3 ruling, the court's conservative majority found that the district, represented by Democrat Cleo Fields, relied too heavily on race. Chief Justice John Roberts had described the district as a "snake" that stretches more than 200 miles (320 kilometers) to link parts of the Shreveport, Alexandria, Lafayette and Baton Rouge areas.

The Rev. Al Sharpton, president of the National Action Network, called the decision a "bullet in the heart of the voting rights movement."

What old Sharpton really means is that this ruling is a bullet in the heart of democRATic racial gerrymandering.

Brian Cole Jr., the FBI's suspect in the Jan. 5 to 6, 2021, pipe-bomb case, appeared before a federal judge on April 22 and pleaded not guilty to the two additional felony charges filed against him in a second superseding indictment.

Federal authorities arrested Cole in December, accusing him of planting two pipe bombs, one outside the Democratic National Committee headquarters and one outside the Republican National Committee headquarters, in the hours leading up to the Jan 6, 2021, protest at the U.S. Capitol. The bombs did not detonate.

Damn Omar is stupid.
