This goes beyond doing the right thing, which would... be to confirm Eagle Ed Martin. Due process ISN'T OPTIONAL! Even for Senators who are lawyers Senator Thom Tillis! You’re a sitting US Senator and a licensed attorney, yet your statement completely disregards individual circumstances, evidence, and the right to a fair trial. That’s not justice. That’s pre-judgment. As a lawyer, you are bound by the ethical duty to uphold the US Constitution, including the right to due process, the presumption of innocence, and the right to a fair trial. Sweeping statements that reduce complex legal cases to blanket prison sentences defy everything our legal system stands for. Being present at the Capitol on January 6th is not the same as committing a crime. Guilt must be proven in a court of law, not proclaimed by a politician who should know better! Did you know children went into the capitol building on J6? Should they be thrown in prison too? Due process isn't just a technicality. It’s a constitutional safeguard that protects everyone, even the unpopular, even the accused, even those we politically disagree with. When lawyers in power forget that, it’s not just unethical. It’s dangerous. #ConfirmEdMartinshow more

BREAKING: KASH PATEL ACCIDENTALLY CONFIRMS – EVEN TERRORISTS GET... FULL U.S. CONSTITUTIONAL PROTECTIONS IN MAGA'S "TOUGH ON CRIME" FARCE! In today's DOJ press conference, Trump's FBI Director Kash Patel bragged that the Benghazi suspect would face justice "HERE in America... Not in another court. Not somewhere else. HERE." Translation? This terrorist gets a lawyer, due process, fair trial—the FULL Constitutional rights Republicans love to deny immigrants, protesters, and everyday Americans! While MAGA screams "no due process for illegals" and turns justice into revenge, they hand a Benghazi killer the red-carpet treatment in U.S. federal court. Hypocrisy level: expert. Patel just exposed the truth: Even their "toughest" regime can't escape the Constitution they claim to love—unless it's convenient to ignore.show more

.Senator Dick Durbin, my daughter died in a system... shaped by policies you continue to defend. You chose sanctuary policies that give special privileges to those here illegally, while law-abiding Illinois citizens like my family are left unprotected. That’s not compassion. That’s a failure of leadership. Your north star isn’t public safety, it’s ideology. And it’s an ideology with no guardrails, where political priorities come before the lives of the people you were elected to serve. You had the chance to show basic humanity, to acknowledge Katie’s life and death, as other senators in your own party did. Instead, silence. Not a call, not a statement, not even basic human acknowledgment. Silence in the face of tragedy isn’t neutrality. It’s indifference. Illinois families deserve better than leaders who look away when the consequences don’t fit their narrative. You’re retiring, but for many of us, that comes 30 years too late. And whoever you choose to endorse should be rejected just as quickly, because Illinois cannot afford more of the same.show more

Every war criminal deserves a fair trial…and that includes... Israeli soldiers. If you’re accused of bombing hospitals, torturing detainees, or executing civilians, you don’t get a pass because of the flag on your uniform. The Hague exists for a reason. And if it’s not applied equally, it’s not justice. This is not a call to vengeance, this is a call for accountability under a court of law in neutral conditions. Let the world see what they’ve done and let them answer for it under the laws they pretend to uphold. If the West actually believes in human rights, then it’s time to prove it in court.show more

WHY ARE WE STILL ALLOWING BILL GATES TO THINK... HE CAN RULE THE REST OVER THE REST OF US? WHO GAVE GATES THE RIGHT TO DECIDE WHAT HUMAN BEINGS STILL MATTER AND WHICH ONES DO NOT? Bill Gates just said humans won’t be needed for most things. And that ”we’ll decide” who still matters. WHO IS THE 'WE'? Let that sit for a second. The man who helped build the digital world is now casually announcing that the people living in it might be optional. No panic. No apology. Just a quiet admission from someone who has never had to worry about being replaced. The scariest part is not the AI. It’s the ”we.” Who is ”we,” Bill? Because it is not the people whose jobs disappear next year. This is not a tech problem. It’s a power problem dressed up as progress. When the people building the tools also decide who needs them, the rest of us are just passengers. Do you trust the people at the top to make that call for you? Courtesy - Captains Obviousshow more

Some people are upset that I said “Raising kanan”... in the final season Is just as great as the others Is imo better than “the wire” It’s my opinion we don’t have to agree But romanticism plagues people The wire was great but it did have flaws 50 would never mess a scene up On raising kanan With bad song placement that does not even match the setting of the scene.. And also the actors in the car are terrible And they don’t even have lines lol Yes it was amazing and it’s legendary But I will not allow your romanticism with the past make you believe that the show from your childhood was flawless It was not!!

What would you have done? Merge right and let... it play out? Hold your ground? Exactly what a Preventable Crash Really Looks Like. You’re driving a semi. Three-lane highway. You're in the center lane. Left lane is ending. Right lane is completely empty. Convex mirror shows no one beside you on the right. Three cars are pacing you in the left lane… and they’re about to run out of road. So Why are you still in the center lane? You’re not boxed in. You’re not blind. And you’ve already seen the sign telling you the left lane ends. You could’ve merged right a half-mile ago and cruised on. Instead, you’re now stuck in the lane of most resistance. That car flying up on your left? It’s doing what 80% of cars do when the lane end, they punch it. They try to get ahead. Not smart. Not courteous. But absolutely predictable. And that’s the point. You’re the professional. They're not. You know how this goes. You should know exactly what to expect. Textbook behavior. So when that car forces a merge in front of your bumper with 20 feet left of asphalt, are they wrong? Yep. But when you don’t lift off the gas, don’t merge right, and don’t anticipate what’s clearly unfolding, that’s no longer just their problem. Now it’s yours. And it’s preventable. What happens next👇 ✅ You plow into the car. ✅ You get to sit roadside for 3 hours explaining it to law enforcement and doing paperwork. ✅ You spend another 3 months Data Q’ing it, defending it in court, or arguing it with claims adjusters. ✅ It’s on your CSA now. ✅ Your insurance premium goes up. ✅ The carrier eats the deductible. ✅ And you get labeled as someone who “could’ve avoided it but didn’t.” Being a truck driver isn’t just turning a wheel. It’s a chess match. It’s anticipating the next three moves. When you choose not to play defense, you’re the one who loses, even when you’re “not at fault.” Some stats to chew on👇 👉Lane change/merge crashes account for nearly 10% of all large truck crashes. 👉FMCSA's Large Truck Crash Causation Study consistently shows "decision error" and "recognition error" as top contributing factors in preventable crashes. 👉The average post-crash litigation process? 3–6 months minimum, and that’s before settlements, audits, or nuclear verdicts.show more

This prosecutor should be ashamed of himself for promoting... such a fundamental mischaracterization of a defense attorney’s duties. Yesterday, in his closing argument in the trial of #EdrickFaust, elected district attorney Kalki Yalamanchili boldly stated that the defendant’s lawyer, Ahmad Crews, has the duty of “[making] sure, regardless of what the evidence is, that he does everything he possibly can to walk Mr. Faust out that door - even though he murdered Tara Baker.” This was (correctly) objected to immediately by Mr. Crews, but what Judge Lisa Lott did to remedy the statement remains unclear. Let me make this clear: defense lawyers are only under obligation to the Constitution. They are not intended to indiscriminately fight for the outcome of a client. They are, just as any other attorney, prohibited from fabricating evidence or information to mislead the court or a jury. Their job is to ensure the prosecution lawfully, and following rules of due process, proves its case beyond a reasonable doubt. Part of their job is to call into question the strength of the evidence against their clients, but not through stooping to the level of deception. The zealous defense of a client cannot be equated with immoral advocacy. It does not mean excusing crime, ignoring facts, or endorsing violence. Undermining and demonizing that role by portraying counsel as morally corrupt for doing his job pressures jurors to effectively punish defendants for the stigma associated with having defense counsel. If there are mistakes, prejudices, conflicts of interest, or any other reason to lose faith in an investigation, a defense attorney’s job is to bring it to the surface and hold the government to account rather than allow a defendant to be steamrolled into a wrongful conviction. Mr. Yalamanchili’s suggestion that defense counsel exists to defeat justice “regardless of the evidence” is an attack on the very elements of the justice he purportedly believes in…but he knows this already. #FreeEdrickFaust #JusticeforTaraBaker #Georgiashow more

Richaun Holmes , This morning a working father woke... up early. Not a millionaire. Just a man who works all week to make ends meet. He took his kid by the hand. He skipped other things, saved money, and decided that this Sunday they would spend it watching you. They went to the arena. Because for them it’s not just a game. It’s a moment together. A memory. And then the game started. You stepped on the court… looking like you didn’t even want to be there. Down by twenty points. Just another regular game, right? Just for the joy of playing. Then everything happened the way everyone saw. And later that same father watched you sitting on the bike. The same father who, a few days earlier against Zalgiris, watched you on that same bike shouting at the crowd. Tell me something, Richard. Are you angry? Did it bother you that the coach said publicly you were sleeping? Because I’ll make sure to explain that to the father and his kid. I’ll tell them to be understanding. After all, your brand might have been hurt. While you earn $200,000 a month - money that some scientists won’t make in ten lifetimes. So yes, Richard, we’re listening carefully. Thank you for respecting the people who come every week to watch you. I’m sure your problems are serious. Probably more serious than a father trying to find 200€ to bring his children to the arena while earning 1,500€ a month. Just remember something. For you it might be just another game. For them, it’s a sacrifice. And this place… is not a playground.show more

She is the Chairperson of the Andhra Pradesh Women’s... Commission — yet she lacks even the most basic understanding of her role. Exposing the name of a minor rape victim, on record, is not just irresponsible — it’s a blatant violation of legal and ethical standards.

Imagine being so unfit for the position that journalists have to teach you the law. Shameful. #AndhraPradeshshow more

let me make sure i’m understanding this correctly the... supreme court is refunding all tariff money back to corporations. the same corporations that didn’t pay a single cent of those tariffs to begin with. they passed every dollar directly to you through higher prices on everything you buy you went to the store and paid more for groceries. you paid more for clothes. for car parts. for literally everything. that money came out of YOUR pocket not theirs and now the refund goes to THEM? the corporations who used the tariffs as an excuse to raise prices even higher than the tariff itself and pocket the difference the american people funded the tariffs. the corporations profited off the tariffs. and now the corporations get a refund on money they never spent in the first place and nobody in washington thinks the people who actually paid should get the money back. not a single person has even suggested it guess we are never getting our DOGE checks either this country does not work for you. it works for them. it’s a joke and they’re not even pretending anymoreshow more

The most valuable skill in history just changed forever.... Elon Musk just handed you the only survival framework that matters. Musk: “The biggest thing is, what questions do we not know to ask?” For centuries, the smartest person in the room held the most answers. AI didn’t level the playing field. It burned it down. Superintelligence in your pocket answers anything. Instantly. Perfectly. For free. Musk: “Once you know the question, the answer is usually the easy part.” Let that land. The next generation of winners won’t be defined by what they know. They’ll be defined by what they think to ask. AI commoditized execution. Script, plan, code, strategy. Models handle all of it. The bottleneck was never intelligence. It was never labor. It’s curiosity. It’s always been curiosity. Traditional education spent decades training you to memorize answers. AI made that obsolete overnight. Human value is no longer tied to knowledge. It’s tied to the judgment of which problems are even worth solving. That’s the gap machines can’t close. Because asking the right question isn’t a skill. It’s a worldview. It requires taste. Intuition. The ability to look at a landscape everyone else is staring at and see the one thing nobody thought to interrogate. Master the art of asking the exact right question to a machine that knows everything and you can build anything. The skill isn’t knowing. It’s knowing what to ask. That judgment, that taste for what’s worth pursuing, that’s the last truly human edge. The only one markets will keep paying for. Answers are infinite now. Free, instant, and available to everyone on earth equally. The only thing separating you from the person who builds the next great company is the quality of your questions. Answers are free. Questions are everything.show more

⚽ Yellow card for speaking Russian on the pitch... — applause in Ukraine In Kyiv region, a rare but symbolic moment: during the women’s match Kolos-Sisters, referee issued a yellow card to Odesa player Iryna Maiborodina for using Russian on the field. The referee’s reasoning was simple — in Ukraine, players should communicate in Ukrainian. And here’s the striking part: the decision was met not with protest, but with applause. Spectators, and even fellow players, supported the move. For me, it’s impossible not to respect the referee — at a time when language is a frontline of identity, he reminded everyone that sport is not neutral. This isn’t about banning a language; it’s about affirming the dignity of a nation under attack. Just as France protects French or Poland protects Polish, Ukraine has every right to safeguard its identity on the pitch as much as on the battlefield. When the referee blew the whistle, it wasn’t just for a foul — it was a signal that the rules of respect for Ukraine apply everywhere.show more

“I love you!” By the start of the third... trimester, your baby is beginning to absorb sound in the womb - with evidence suggesting they can both identify mom’s voice and the distinct rhythms and patterns of her native language at birth. Knowing that these are among our earliest learnings, don’t be surprised if your little one begins to mimic the musicality of certain words and phrases well before they explode into language near the end of the first year. In fact, this musicality or “prosody” is even displayed in your baby’s cries. That’s right: babies cry with an accent. With all this in mind, check out this little guy (shared to TT by bri_col44), who - at 3 months - sure appears to have said “I love you.” Developmentally, it’s probably a little early for the phrase to be associated with meaning (with our first communicative words typically emerging between 10-14 months), but amazing how well this little one matches mom’s phrasing, even as articulation and understanding are continuing to develop. It all a part of the amazing process of language development. And that’s not to even mention that smile! There’s truly nothing better.show more

A court was only ever needed to decide what... a woman is because men decided they can be women. The law, and society, has always known what a woman is - for better or worse. No one will understand the actual turmoil of going through a court case to establish what a woman is unless you have had to do it. It’s even more stressful than the stupid premise suggests. Sleepless nights, hair falling out, sporadic inconsolable crying fits. But yet, we persist. Because we have to. For Women Scotland have my full admiration, and more. They are right, they have done the right thing and history will remember them on the right side. It’s inevitable. Men will never be women. Never tell women we’re not a reality. We know the reality all too well and will fight to defend it. Women have had to fight for everything we have. We got nothing in law and society by accident. This is just the latest fight, albeit possibly the most stupid. I cannot wait to one day take my daughter to Scotland and show her the inevitable For Women Scotland statue and tell her “they did this for you”. Thank you. And in the words of the late, great, Magdalen Berns, “fuck off you wanker”.show more

The case of Débora Rodrigues is a brutal example... of what happens when the judicial system abandons impartiality and turns into a tool of political repression. The disproportionate sentence imposed on her, comparable to those given for violent crimes, has no reasonable justification in a democratic state governed by the rule of law. It is a judicial aberration that reveals the vindictive nature of those in power in Brazil today. Even if Débora had committed a serious crime, her punishment should have followed principles of proportionality, considering her clean record and personal circumstances. But as far as we know, her "great threat" was a symbolic act—a peaceful protest. A 14-year sentence is not justice; it is institutionalized torture. Those who condone this, whether through silence or justification, must understand that tomorrow they could be the next target. Today it’s Débora—tomorrow it could be any citizen who dares to challenge the establishment. Brazil is moving toward a regime where political dissent is punished with the harshest penalties, while criminals allied with those in power receive pardons and privileges. If lawmakers do not take a stand against this injustice, they will be signing the death sentence of Brazilian democracy. You are absolutely right to bring this case to the international community. History shows that authoritarian regimes only retreat when faced with both external and internal pressure. This is no longer just a political issue—it is a humanitarian one.show more
