CLICKBAIT ALERT!!!

RealityLand Version:

In his brief statement, Rubio was addressing the Russian people and made no mention of specific leaders or persons in Russia. He also expressed his hope for peace between Russia and Ukraine.


The new Syrian government show their fashion sense and decree that all women need to wear a burkini at the beach
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ckgq7d...

Syria's Islamist-led interim government has decreed that women must wear burkinis - a swimsuit that covers the body except for the face, hands and feet - or other "decent" clothes at public beaches and swimming pools.

The regulations, issued by the tourism ministry, were "aimed at enhancing public safety standards and preserving public decency", Syrian state news channel Al-Ikhbariyah al-Suriyah reported.

Private beaches, clubs and pools, as well as hotels with more than four stars, are exempt, the directive said.


“Unless you are rich, of course”


I was thinking along the same lines, after the five star hotel exemption.


Okay, I don't think we need to be handcuffing uppity senators at news conferences unless they start swinging.

The optics on this are about as good as all the Mexican flags at the LA protests, which is to say, not very.

Even a few of my crypto bro Republican friends are disturbed by this

I imagine this will soon pass just like everything else, but most people don't like this

I don't know more than the post and this response by DHS, but seems like more than just asking a question?


yeah that context definitely changes things

there is video where he says "i am senator alex padilla" but again that's just hearsay

there's a reason they have physical credentials - because any crazy guy could just yell "i'm a senator"


I'm sure he "lunged" at Noem

Thanks for rubeing it up

They were doing a press conference, they could just release the video of him being aggressive

I guess we can add "the meaning of hearsay" to the list of things rick thinks he understands but does not, along with basic arrest procedure.


But guys, they swear they aren't fascists!

Yeah, I want to see this lunge.

Also lol at anyone in the Trump regime complaining about disrespectful political theater. That's everything they do.

Here you go. Based on other video from worse angles this is quite literally the entirety of the interaction

Maybe its relevant that she directly says in this press conference that they are going to "liberate" the city from its elected leadership

Its also worth noting that just to get in the building he would have had to clear security, let alone that room which appears to have agents guarding the door

Same for the people getting into the building on Jan 6

Yeah, they cleared security, just not the same way.

Ha I guess so. People break into stuff, including into the country, all the time.

Point being just because some unidentified person is in the building can't necessarily assume they are cleared.

Gotta tell you my dude, the standard for arresting people isn't typically "durrrrr, I dont know who this guy is."




Our facilities are badged and there is an assumption that people directly on the other side of a guarded door are cleared to be there

trump's mom lied about being a citizen on some govt forms way back in the day right before he was born. He might be one of those illegal aliens himself.

Not sure he was arrested, but not complying with officers and lunging at politicians seems like pretty reasonable grounds for arrest.

That's a pretty bad take if you actually watched the video.
