So how many of the 24 offenders are affiliated with the Democratic Party or any other mainstream reformist, progressive or leftist organisation? The answer is none. The only perpetrator arguably from the Left is Black nationalist Quintez Brown.

Trump not alone in falsely blaming others for his own evil.

Immediately after Kirk’s killing, Elon Musk tweeted, ‘The Left is the party of murder’.

Had a heated argument with a tankie who glorified stalin and lenin. So fucking tired. The worst thing he's a discord mod of a good streamer, and i left the server because i can't be there anymore. Context: i'm russian whose grand-grandparents were repressed and forcibly relocated. Left Russia several years ago because i didn't want to support the aggressive war in Ukraine. And his american (no offense to amreicans tho) ass tried to explain me that stalin is an actual hero who singlehandedly saved Europe from fascism, and all repressed were rich "bourgeois land owners" (actually, no. but even if yes, that's a terrorism). Then he and other user started posting stupid tankie memes. Ofc they ignored my questions how LGBT+, religious groups and small nations were treated and deleted the message. I'm sick of that shit. Needed to vent somewhere.

Being homeless means the opposite of "safety in numbers." I've only let one other vandweller know where I park. It's safe, well lit and has nearby businesses with washrooms, which is a pretty decent setup.

Locally, residents are also very aggressive to homeless camps. Thankfully, no shootings yet, but there's this pervasive belief that we're all addicts with machetes just waiting to snap or run into a busy street.

I get so sick of "the homeless are the problem, not soaring housing costs and a deteriorating job market that led to homelessness."

Minneapolis police have said over a dozen people have been hurt in two separate shootings at homeless encampments across the city on the same day.

The first shooting at a transit station wounded five people, and happened in an area that had seen two prior shootings in the past month.

Minneapolis police chief Brian O’Hara rued the shootings as disturbingly commonplace.

“Here we are yet again in the aftermath of a mass shooting. This is not normal,” O’Hara said.

As time went on, several within the Charlie Kirk vigil began to falsely accuse Sanchez’ group of being “Antifa.” Pointing to their masks, several began shouting at masked members of Patriot Front and Active Clubs to “show their face.” Several times, as the rhetoric from the white nationalist groups became even more explicit than usual, vigilgoers attempted to pray loudly and unsuccessfully to drown them out.

One man, carrying an American flag, taunted the group with several others. Calling them “un-American,” and “traitors,” he followed them to a parking garage several blocks away where the group was walking through. Suddenly, about a dozen began kicking and hitting him. The group then fled into the parking garage.

She was easier to catch today, but was a bit nervous leaving the field because we had to walk through the bulk of the herd. The other horses can be nosy as hell and Sandy doesn't like it when they bother us. They all left us alone though and she settled once we were in the barn. She got treats for being so good for me in the pasture and for being brave.

I haven't been doing many exercises with her because training her to let me put her halter on in pasture has been exercise enough for the both of us. She cantered around the whole goddamn field yesterday instead of just behaving for me.

Most days she trots away for a bit but eventually relents. Today she didn't run around too much, but that's probably because she worked herself so hard yesterday for no reason. I wasn't even going fast or anything when making my approaches. I'd wait for her to stop then very slowly make my way towards her, not even looking at her or anything. Just ambling in her direction and occasionally getting out my phone and pretending to be focused on it. I was real casual so maybe she'd be tempted to just come over on her own to get the treats she knows I carry. I'd get a few paces into the trek towards her and she'd start running again. She looked kinda bummed when I gave up. I was too hot to stay out there any longer lol.

Best part of this whole chase game she plays, is that she'll greet me with cute little noises from afar and act like she's gonna come over but then goes in a completely different direction. Such a shithead lol.

In the new collection of documents two more pages from the ‘birthday book’ appear – one of which includes a previously redacted name

Lawyers representing Jeffrey Epstein’s estate have turned over a second tranche of documents to the House Oversights Committee, including previously redacted pages of the pedophile financier’s now-infamous “birthday book.”

The birthday book, given to Epstein in 2003 to mark his 50th birthday, contained a collection of letters from high-profile friends and acquaintances, including one that was alleged to have been written by President Donald Trump.

Trump has vehemently denied that he wrote the letter. White House officials also denied that the signature was real.

Democratic lawmakers are questioning whether a Boar’s Head deli meat plant at the center of last year’s deadly listeria outbreak will be fit to reopen.

Rep. Rosa DeLauro, of Connecticut, sent a letter Monday asking company officials to appear before the Congressional Food Safety Caucus to discuss “a repeated pattern of food safety negligence that jeopardized Americans’ public health.”

The letter, signed by nine other Democrats, cited Associated Press reporting that described sanitation problems in recent months at Boar’s Head plants in three states. It requests a response by Sept. 26.

Boar’s Head officials have said they planned to reopen their plant in Jarratt, Virginia, in the coming months. The plant was shuttered after listeria-tainted liverwurst killed 10 people, sickened dozens and forced a recall of more than 7 million pounds of deli products. Federal officials said systemic problems at the plant caused the outbreak.
