During a #sirvankhosravi concert in Tehran, #iran the crowd erupts in pro freedom chants, where I can hear them shout #azadi or freedom and #alikarimi. This is one of the perfect places for dissonance as the #IRGCTerrorists are effectively caught off guard and helpless to respond. #iran #music #concert #iranrevolution #MahsaAmini #WomanLifeFreedom #iranprotests

This day in history. 1633. Galileo faced charges of heresy for saying the planets revolve around the sun. But the Catholic church admitted its error and apologized, in 1992.

Do Flat Earthers also believe the sun and moon are flat? Like, is the entire solar system just a mismatched collection of space dinner plates?
"Executive privilege" is a media-driven red herring that won't impact the takedown of Donald Trump - Palmer Report
The executive privilege battle was fought when the January 6 committee was sending out their subpoenas. tRump is no longer the executive. Biden is. And Biden is not going to protect Pence from a subpoena. There is no such thing as ex-executive privilege so all little Donnie can do is sit on the sidelines and watch.
