She was in court, a nurse told her. The reason? For failing to agree to a C-section.

(1 of 2) This is inaccurate—and the truth is worse. She was already detained, and when Trump's pal heard that he contacted the White House to demanded she be deported so he'd get custody of their child. The White House complied.
I don't know what to call that, but it's criminal.

The former is impeachable *and* criminal, the latter criminal.

In August 2022, Adams County Sheriff's deputies arrived at Afroman's Ohio home under a warrant alleging drug trafficking and kidnapping.
They broke down his front door, ransacked the property, and took $400 in cash that officials later claimed had been "miscounted" during the search.
Authorities found no drugs, no kidnapping victims, and filed no charges.

The Fourth Amendment was written for exactly this moment.
The Founders had lived under general warrants: blanket government authority to search homes, seize property, and answer to no one.
They made that unconstitutional. A warrant must specify the place to be searched and the things to be seized, and when the state acts on bad information and causes damage, accountability belongs to the state. Not the citizen.

“Attitude has shifted towards supporting the US war as a way to punish Iran for strikes” thread 🧵
1) A shift in attitudes is underway as anger in Riyadh and Abu Dhabi grows over Iran strikes. The US is putting pressure on Saudi Arabia to join in offensive strikes. Riyadh has given US expanded access to airspace and bases.
2) Saudi Foreign Minister’s tough words on Iran contrast with Oman. A divide is emerging in the Gulf over how to handle war and U.S. pressure to contribute @BernardHaykel told me.
Although this survey based study suggests some improvement over time, the burden of long COVID remains high, with millions of adults still affected and true biological recovery remaining uncertain🧵
This study analyzed data from the US National Health Interview Survey from 2022 to 2024 to examine how common long COVID is and how often people report recovering from it.
The main findings.
From 2022 to 2024, the share of US adults who reported ever having had COVID increased from 39.6% to 60.4%. Among those individuals, however, the proportion who reported ever having long COVID fell from 19.7% to 13.7%.

Hello, I don't wish to discredit what you're saying. I trully see your point and i don't think you're being unreasonable. But i want to point out that your argument is a two way road.
What I mean is that, in the most basic sense, acceptance can be an emotional response too.
What I mean is that, in the most basic sense, acceptance can be an emotional response too.
You say that pro-boycotters may be acting out of fear of being disappointed in Heeseung’s POSSIBLE choice.
But the same can be said for acceptance. What if acceptance is also a form of emotional self-protection? A way to cope with the lack of control you mentioned, the discomfort of knowing something may be wrong and not being able to do anything about it?
X🧵The Peace Promise That Was Sold to the World
Before the election, the world heard one clear message from Donald Trump: "I will end wars." From cities across Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East, people hoped a new U.S. administration would stop fueling conflicts. It wasn't just an American promise, it was sold as a gift to the world. 🧵👇

But promises made on the campaign trail often collide with political debts once in office. And few debts are as large as the one owed to Miriam Adelson, the casino magnate and Republican megadonor who poured over $100 million into his victory.
Adelson isn't just a donor. She controls one of Israel's largest newspapers and is the widow of Sheldon Adelson, a long-time architect of hardline U.S. Middle East policy. Her influence isn't subtle, it's transactional. The funding bought a foreign policy that serves her agenda, not global peace.
Descobri uma coisa interessante, hoje. Existe uma distribuição Linux lutando contra verificação de idade na plataforma. Ele é chamado de Ageless Linux:
O que é interessante, é que a distribuição está criticando leis da Califórnia, não do Brasil, mas os problemas são os mesmos. Mesmo excesso de abrange, mesma desculpa: “proteger as crianças”.
Podemos concluir daí que a tal “Lei Felca” é uma fraude ainda maior, por que não só tenta implementar a censura, como é uma censura concebida pelas Big Techs da Califórnia.
What Does It Mean to Be Anointed?
Why Charisma, Emotion, and Stage Presence Are Not the Same as the Holy Ghost
Introduction
One of the most abused words in modern Christianity is the word anointed. It gets thrown around so carelessly now that it has almost lost all biblical definition in the minds of many church people. A man can pace a platform, raise his voice, tell emotional stories, wipe tears from his eyes, and get a crowd shouting, and somebody in the back will say, “That man is really anointed.” Another preacher can be dead wrong doctrinally, soft on sin, twisted on salvation, and crooked on the Book, and people will still defend him with the same tired line: “Yeah, but he’s anointed.” Somewhere along the way, a generation of professing Christians began to confuse excitement with unction, personality with power, and talent with truth. That confusion has done real damage because once “anointing” becomes a shield for error, people stop testing preaching by Scripture and start testing it by the way it made them feel.
The Bible never gives anybody permission to define the Holy Ghost by crowd reaction. The Holy Spirit is not a stage effect. He is not a mood. He is not a personality enhancement package handed out to naturally gifted communicators. He is God. He bears witness to truth. He magnifies Jesus Christ. He glorifies the Son of God and never works against the written words He inspired. That means the minute a man starts excusing false doctrine, doctrinal carelessness, sensual worldliness, or manipulative showmanship by saying a preacher is “anointed,” he has already left the Bible and entered the land of religious sorcery. The devil has always been happy to give men energy without truth, influence without holiness, and power without scriptural substance. Not every strong impression comes from the Spirit of God. Not every moving experience is of heaven. The heart can be stirred by music, drama, timing, and personality just as easily as by truth, and often more easily.
So the question has to be settled plainly and biblically. What does it actually mean to be anointed? Is anointing a speaking style? Is it a personality trait? Is it something only a few dramatic personalities carry while ordinary believers do not? Or are all saved people anointed in some real scriptural sense while still differing in calling, maturity, giftedness, boldness, and fruitfulness? Those are not small questions. Those questions go right to the heart of how a Christian discerns preachers, judges ministries, and understands the work of the Holy Spirit in this present age. And unless those questions are answered from the Book, people will keep getting mesmerized by polished deceivers while quiet men who actually preach truth get overlooked because they are not flashy enough for the religious entertainment crowd.
1. The First Meaning of Anointing in Scripture Is Being Set Apart by God
If you want to understand a Bible word, you do not start with modern church culture. You start with the Bible. In the Old Testament, anointing is tied directly to consecration, appointment, and separation unto God for a specific office or work. Priests were anointed. Kings were anointed. In some settings, prophets were connected to anointing as well. The oil was not magic. It was a visible sign that God had set someone apart for a particular divine purpose. Aaron was anointed for priestly service. Saul was anointed as king. David was anointed as king. The anointing marked a man out publicly as someone God had chosen for an office, function, or responsibility.
That means right away we need to get rid of the modern fantasy that anointing is basically a feeling people get when they like the mood in the room. In the Bible, anointing was never primarily about style. It was about designation. It was about being marked out. It was about divine appointment. When Samuel anointed David, he was not complimenting his speaking ability. He was not saying David

That means right away we need to get rid of the modern fantasy that anointing is basically a feeling people get when they like the mood in the room. In the Bible, anointing was never primarily about style. It was about designation. It was about being marked out. It was about divine appointment. When Samuel anointed David, he was not complimenting his speaking ability. He was not saying David
had a special stage glow. He was marking out the man God had chosen. “Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the Spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward” (1 Samuel 16:13). The thing was serious, holy, and connected to God’s purpose.
This matters because a lot of modern Christians use the word anointed like they are talking about somebody being naturally magnetic. They say a singer is anointed because she has a moving voice. They say a preacher is anointed because he has timing, force, and emotion. But in Scripture anointing is tied first to God’s claim and God’s purpose, not public excitement. A man may have natural gifts and not be right with God at all. Another man may not be flashy, but may be deeply set apart to the Lord and faithful to the truth. The first man gets applauded. The second man gets ignored. That tells you how far church culture has drifted from biblical categories.
2. In the New Testament, Believers Have an Anointing From the Holy One
When you come into the New Testament, the language deepens because the anointing is no longer merely outward ceremonial oil connected to a visible office. The believer in this age of grace is indwelt by the Holy Ghost. John writes, “But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things” (1 John 2:20). Then again, “But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you” (1 John 2:27). That is one of the clearest passages in the New Testament on the subject. John is not describing a theatrical sensation. He is describing the inward ministry of the Spirit of God in the believer. The anointing abides in you. It is not hanging in the air over a stage. It is not resting on a microphone. It is not measured by how loud the room gets. It is inward, abiding, and connected to truth.
That means all saved people, in the New Testament sense, are anointed in that they have received the indwelling Spirit of God. Every genuine Christian has the Holy Ghost. “Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his” (Romans 8:9). The Spirit is not a deluxe package for celebrities in the pulpit. He is the seal of every born again believer. “In whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise” (Ephesians 1:13). So when people talk as though only a few dramatic personalities are “anointed,” they are speaking carelessly. They are usually confusing giftedness or prominence with the true New Testament reality of the Spirit’s indwelling presence.
Now that does not mean every Christian is equally mature, equally submissive, equally fruitful, equally skillful, or equally effective. That would be nonsense. All Christians are indwelt, but not all Christians are yielded. All Christians are sealed, but not all Christians are spiritual. All Christians have the Holy Ghost, but not all Christians walk in the Spirit. So the right answer is not that anointing is fake, and the right answer is not that only platform personalities have it. The right answer is that every saved believer has the Spirit of God, but the degree to which that believer is surrendered, obedient, grounded in truth, and useful in ministry will vary greatly. The anointing is real, but it is not a substitute for holiness, truth, discipline, or biblical discernment.
This matters because a lot of modern Christians use the word anointed like they are talking about somebody being naturally magnetic. They say a singer is anointed because she has a moving voice. They say a preacher is anointed because he has timing, force, and emotion. But in Scripture anointing is tied first to God’s claim and God’s purpose, not public excitement. A man may have natural gifts and not be right with God at all. Another man may not be flashy, but may be deeply set apart to the Lord and faithful to the truth. The first man gets applauded.

The anointing is real, but it is not a substitute for holiness, truth, discipline, or biblical discernment.
3. The Holy Ghost Does Not Anoint Error
This is where a lot of modern religion blows a gasket, because many people want to use the word anointed as a protective shield around false teachers. They say, “I know he teaches things that are not right, but he is so anointed.” No, friend, he may be powerful, he may be persuasive, he may be compelling, he may be emotionally effective, but the Holy Ghost is not in the business of anointing lies. The Spirit of God is the Spirit of truth. Jesus said, “when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth” (John 16:13). He does not guide men into error and then give them extra force to spread it. He does not inspire the Book and then empower a man to deny what the Book says while calling that contradiction “anointing.”
The Holy Spirit magnifies Christ, but He does so through truth. He never detaches power from doctrine. He never says accuracy is optional as long as the room is moved emotionally. Paul told Timothy, “Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine” (1 Timothy 4:16). Doctrine matters because truth matters, and truth matters because God matters. If a preacher is soft on the gospel, wrong on salvation, twisted on Christ, crooked on the Scriptures, sensual in his method, or manipulative in his approach, you are not dealing with “anointing” in the biblical sense no matter how many people cry during the altar call. You are dealing with influence, and influence is not always holy.
The devil can imitate a lot of things. He can imitate religion. He can imitate sincerity. He can imitate righteousness outwardly. “For Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light” (2 Corinthians 11:14). The next verse says, “Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness” (2 Corinthians 11:15). That ought to sober any Christian who thinks emotional effect proves divine endorsement. The room may shake and still the message be wrong. The music may swell and still the doctrine be rotten. The speaker may be magnetic and still be leading people away from biblical truth. The test is not how strong it felt. The test is what the Book says.
4. Personality and Speaking Style Are Not the Same as Spiritual Power
Some men are naturally intense. Some are naturally soft-spoken. Some are storytellers. Some are analytical. Some thunder. Some explain quietly. Some have a commanding voice. Some have very little natural polish. None of that, by itself, tells you whether the Spirit of God is at work in the man. We are creatures of flesh, and flesh loves outward impressions. It is easier for people to recognize volume than depth, tears than truth, rhythm than righteousness, and drama than doctrine. That is why so many believers mislabel style as anointing. They are responding to delivery and calling it divinity.
This is where a lot of modern religion blows a gasket, because many people want to use the word anointed as a protective shield around false teachers. They say, “I know he teaches things that are not right, but he is so anointed.” No, friend, he may be powerful, he may be persuasive, he may be compelling, he may be emotionally effective, but the Holy Ghost is not in the business of anointing lies. The Spirit of God is the Spirit of truth. Jesus said, “when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth” (John 16:13). He does not guide men into error and then give them extra force to spread it. He does not inspire the Book and then empower a man to deny what the Book says while calling that contradiction “anointing.”
The Holy Spirit magnifies Christ, but He does so through truth. He never detaches power from doctrine. He never says accuracy is optional as long as the room is moved emotionally. Paul told Timothy, “Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine” (1 Timothy 4:16). Doctrine matters because truth matters, and truth matters because God matters. If a preacher is soft on the gospel, wrong on salvation, twisted on Christ, crooked on the Scriptures, sensual in his method, or manipulative in his approach, you are not dealing with “anointing” in the biblical sense no matter how many people cry during the altar call. You are dealing with influence, and influence is not always holy.
The devil can imitate a lot of things. He can imitate religion. He can imitate sincerity. He can imitate righteousness outwardly. “For Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light” (2 Corinthians 11:14). The next verse says, “Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness” (2 Corinthians 11:15). That ought to sober any Christian who thinks emotional effect proves divine endorsement. The room may shake and still the message be wrong. The music may swell and still the doctrine be rotten. The speaker may be magnetic and still be leading people away from biblical truth. The test is not how strong it felt. The test is what the Book says.

Why it doesn’t protect enough:
Only kids get focus, adults left exposed. No broad limits on data sucking for training. No real teeth on adult deepfakes or privacy invasion.
What needs to change:
Extend safeguards + transparency to everyone. Cap data collection/use. Mandate opt outs and clear impact reports.
Action for States:
Pass strong user privacy laws now, don’t wait for weak federal minimums.
