    ANNOUNCEMENT! I have officially joined the land of Substack. It was probably inevitable. But I'm very excited about the opportunities the platform affords. And most of all, looking forward to making insufferable people's heads explode mtracey.substack.com/p/officially-d…

    They always strangely leave out another country that's receiving a large amount of money from the US

    We sent $250 billion to Ukraine. And yet we can’t get water to fight fires in California.

    Every time I walk into a restaurant with my mask affixed for 30 seconds before being seated, then spend 45 minutes unmasked eating and drinking, and then affix my mask again for 30 seconds while leaving, I give thanks for how many thousands of lives this practice has surely saved

    I’ve been wearing a nice big Star of David necklace this entire time at Columbia, and oddly experienced no “Anti-Semitic Harassment.” It’s almost like the people who claim to experience such “harassment” deliberately go around trying to provoke it for social media clout

    Downtown DC is essentially under military occupation and nobody in our bold, adversarial watchdog media apparently finds this odd

    Key difference between Dem and GOP claims of election fraud: Dem claims get amplified eagerly by every organ of mainstream establishment opinion (see 2016). Conversely, GOP claims are subject to a barrage of disclaimers and censorship declaring them authoritatively to be false

    Purging the sitting President from his primary communications platform is absolute authoritarian lunacy

    Ben Shapiro: "No one in the United States should be retiring at 65 years old. Frankly, I think retirement itself is a stupid idea unless you have some sort of health problem."

    Lead sponsor of the TikTok bill, Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-WI) admits the real reason they're rushing to ban TikTok -- because it's "becoming the dominant news platform for Americans under 30" and the US government doesn't control it like other platforms

    Do you have any evidence that this person is incompetent at her profession? The bio also says she's a 22 year vet of the LAFD, and was previously Battalion Chief, Assistant Chief, Deputy Chief, and Chief Deputy. These cheap swipes based on identity traits are getting tiresome
