That's not true. The graphic that you saw claiming that is disinformation. Here's the actual historical record. Now go take a look at the size of this land compared to Jordan, the other state formed from the same Mandate land. The division is fair, proportionate to the size of the communities.

Did you even read your own link? The Justice Dept acted to block Conservative Christian groups from joining a case, by saying they would defend the religious exemption to Title IX themselves, as the law requires them to do. At the same time, here's what Biden was up to:

Biden is also in the midst of pressing for passage of the Equality Act, a sweeping measure that would add gender identity and sexuality to the groups protected under the Civil Rights Act, while significantly weakening exemptions for religious groups and people.

This is the exact kind of Leftist anti-Resistance nonsense I'm on about. The Leftist Bluesky group consensus is that Trump was the inevitable result of Capitalism, and also that the USA has always been evil. They're in their own alternate reality.

A post saying "Accounts like this are hilarious. They don't actually hate Trump's imperialist, fascist, capitalist policies. They just hate that he's tacky about it. Also, the Stars and Stripes are a Nazi hate symbol. If you have one in your bio, I automatically assume you're an asshole" about a Resistance account.

No, the president has sole authority and no one can veto their choices. www.wagingpeace.org/protocol-u-s...

Note that the secretary of defense does not confirm the president’s decision, nor does he or she have a right to veto it, nor does anyone else have the authority to override the decision. This is what Elaine Scarry has identified as, in effect, a “thermonuclear monarchy,” which gives the US president almost carte blanche command over the nuclear forces.

And here is one original source that I found for you about the Custodian of Absentee Property, a UN report about the work being done to calculate compensation and keep track of those lands, to prevent looting and plunder by random people. www.un.org/unispal/docu...

A. One of the Custodian’s first tasks when order was restored and the armistice lines established, was to take steps to safeguard the movable property abandoned by the Arabs. The Custodian had to take measures against the looting of such movable property, and to property, and to protect abandoned Arab houses against unlawful occupation and the spontaneous looting which tended to increase with the growing number of immigrants arriving in Israel. Property left in dwelling houses, warehouses and workshops was systematically collect and made available to the army, public institutions or individuals by auction or direct sale. These operations were duly registered.

He doesn't talk about anchor points, he talks about "excess prices." www.gelliottmorris.com/p/2026-04-17...

That gap, between the price level you actually pay at the store and the level you’d be paying if 2020 had never happened, is what I’ve been calling “excess prices.” And statistically and in theory, it does a better job of predicting how Americans feel about the economy than any of the standard macro indicators we usually reach for.

Rev. Magdalen@revmagdalen· Apr 17

He says they did their own survey on how much people post online about politics, and loaded that data into this chart, and that they'll be publishing the actual survey in April.

We are going to load up this data and see if people who follow the news more often say prices are more important to them, and rate Trump more negatively on the issue. We are also going to load up the response data for my yet-to-be-released April survey, which asked how often respondents post or comment about politics on social media, from “never” to “every day.” The results are shown in the graphic below:

This essay says all I would have to say about that. newrepublic.com/article/1953...

There are many stories about how Trump won, and how to combat him. We can categorize these by how much agency they ascribe to the right. A high-agency narrative stresses actions the right took—appealing to racism or sexism, for instance, or talking about draining the swamp. A low-agency narrative represents someone else as making the key decision, as possessing agency, and Trump’s support as a reaction to that. Interestingly, low-agency narratives can, and did, emanate from different ideological camps—they just see Trump voters reacting to different offenses. In centrist narratives, MAGA is reacting to the excesses of social justice, cultural disrespect, or incivility. In left narratives, MAGA is reacting to economic inequality, neoliberalism, and a corrupt political system.

I keep seeing this conspiracy theory go around, and thinking about how privilege means it's taken for granted that extremists don't speak for most of you. But a less privileged group isn't allowed to have any fringe extremists, anything they say is taken as "what the whole group really thinks."

I’m already pretty sure Israel plans to invade and occupy Syria and Jordan once they’re done destroying Lebanon. This disaster is going to last decades and the entire world knows what two countries created it.

The ruling found that the protests were criminal intimidation, not peaceful speech, and that some acts did amount to terrorism. Just that the scale of the terrorism didn't rise to the level where the ban would be a proportionate response. It's not a full exoneration.

Oh look, it says here that she was actually arrested because a news crew was filming the events on the public street, not because evil liberals "narced" on her. She admitted to lighting an aerosol can on fire, but denies being the one who started the fire, and took a plea deal.

In video shot that night by FOX 5, a woman can be seen wearing a pink-ish-purple jacket around her waist. She appears to have an aerosol can that she ignites as others smashed windows just seconds before the fast-food restaurant went up in flames.

An attorney said the woman in those images that investigators released is Natalie White, but that she didn't start the fire.

See how the *actual* trending words are so much more in tune with what people are actually talking about? Making trends as custom feeds doesn't work. Just show the trending words, it's a feature not a bug.

Half of those surveyed find it difficult to pay for food. Your assertion seems to be that it is not actually difficult for them to pay for food, they just irrationally believe that it is, right? www.politico.com/news/2025/12...

FOOD PRICES
The big observation: Trump attributed his 2024 victory over Biden partly to his pledge to bring down the cost of everyday goods like eggs. But a year later, Americans are more worried about being able to afford groceries than the rising cost of housing or health care, according to The POLITICO Poll.

Half of those surveyed said they find it difficult to pay for food. And a majority, 55 percent, blame the Trump administration for the high prices — even as the White House emphasizes its focus on affordability and the economy ahead of the midterm.
