Nigerian women should learn to stop opening legs for irresponsible men.
biggz82:
The woman is not responsible hence the need to open her legs for an irresponsible man.
Don't forget iron sharpens iron


Nigerian women should learn to stop opening legs for irresponsible men.
Of course you guys found a way to make it the woman’s fault.

The supposed leader of the house couldn’t control his emotions and your response is to blame the wife.

I’m sure if anyone asks him why he beat his two year old so badly, he’ll find a way to blame his wife for it.

Talking about irresponsibility and you guys can’t even hold another man accountable for his misbehavior. What is the difference between you guys and him?

Conservatives are heavily anti regulations because they are bought over by big corporations who hate to spend money on making sure their products are safe for consumption. They convince their supporters that this is what small govt means. We are watching the results in real time as more and more people get sick from the shoddy practices of these corporations.

Same pattern was notable during Trump’s first administration. He relaxed regulations on companies and they started putting out dangerous stuff out there, resulting in major recalls at the time. It’s happening again now and it seems to be happening at a higher rate.

Unfortunately it’s true.

CaptainIgbo:
I really hope this is not true. Horses have played an extraordinary role in American history, from the time of the Spanish explorers, from whom the wild mustangs descend. Since then, very important equestrian cultures have grown around the country, from Los Angeles to New York, and all the way to Wellington, Florida. Wild horses should be left alone, or, if absolutely necessary, should be given proper care.

BREAKING🚨 Marco Rubio personally signed off on stripping a cartel witness of his protection from torture, and eleven days later ICE put him on a plane to Mexico.

The man, a Mexican national in his late 40s identified in court papers only as John Doe, lived in Maryland and showed up for every ICE check-in he was given. In January, ICE detained him at one of those check-ins and shipped him to a detention center in Louisiana. Last month, with no notice and with a habeas case still pending, he was flown to Guatemala.

Guatemala refused him, because he isn't Guatemalan, and handed him to the Mexican consulate. A Mexican consular official learned he had protection from deportation to Mexico and declined to take him. He was back in the U.S. the same day.

Days later ICE flew him straight to Mexico. Mexico refused a second time.

On July 21 he was served notice that his protection under the Convention Against Torture had been terminated. The notice was in English. He speaks Spanish.

It said the State Department had received assurances from the Mexican government that he would not be tortured, and that Secretary of State Marco Rubio and acting ICE Director David Venturella had consulted and decided those assurances were reliable. U.S. District Judge Stephanie Gallagher, who is handling the case, noted in a footnote that this kind of termination requires a Cabinet member and is extremely rare, and that no one explained why the two men involved themselves in this one case.

On August 1 he was deported to Mexico without his phone or his belongings. "He has been in hiding since that date," Gallagher wrote, "fearing that the cartels that he provided information against will find him and torture or kill him before he can return to the United States."

Trump destroys their nuclear weapons (which they didn’t actually have and were only two weeks away from developing BTW), only to resurrect it and destroy it again.

And he will continue to “destroy” it as long as that silly story keeps getting him the support of his unthinking base.

Iran says military power will not feed hungry stomachs.

[i]The Iran Watcher
@TheIranWatcher
🚨 The Islamic Republic admits military power cannot prevent regime collapse as economic failure leaves Iranians hungry.

In a rare, high-level public admission of the regime’s structural fragility, Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, a former IRGC commander and core regime figure, warned:

“No matter how much military power we have, if people are hungry and we don’t have financial circulation, economic growth and domestic production, we will not endure.”

The warning comes as the regime’s economy is collapsing under mounting pressure, with oil revenues being cut off, inflation crushing purchasing power, the rial under severe pressure and billions in foreign funds remaining inaccessible.

The significance is enormous. A senior insider is openly acknowledging that missiles, drones and security forces cannot guarantee the Islamic Republic’s survival if its economic foundations collapse.

Ghalibaf is effectively identifying the regime’s greatest vulnerability: economic collapse fueling internal discontent that military power alone cannot contain.

Sonya called for help because she thought an intruder was in her home.

Instead, she got shot in the face by officer Grayson. Being black is not a crime. May she rest in peace.

Nneoma, thank you so much oh..Someone also called my attention and warned about ground beef. Personally, I already hyper focus on the source of produce, particularly fresh produce and this doesn’t make it any easier. We are now seeing more disease outbreaks related to fresh produce. I really worry about those on SNAP benefits and access to quality produce of known source.
Yea I just didn’t make sense why it was specifically ground beef and not all beef.

They wanted to ruin this black child’s life
A black teenager was charged with attempted murder of a police officer, but the body camera footage just cleared the case. Now, 18-year-old Dailen Brewer is suing the City of Indianapolis and Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department Sgt. Robyn Frazier, accusing the officer of fabricating the story that put him behind bars.

According to federal court records, the Dailen Brewer lawsuit was filed July 20 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana and seeks a jury trial over alleged civil rights violations.

The case traces back to April 12, when Brewer drove into Riverside Park with a friend. According to reporting from the Indianapolis Star, police had begun diverting traffic from the park because congestion could have made it harder for emergency vehicles to get through. Brewer entered his red Honda HR V and parked before Frazier followed him and approached the vehicle.

What happened next became the center of the case.
Frazier wrote in a probable cause affidavit that she saw Brewer pointing a revolver in her direction. The affidavit stated:
"While Sgt Frazier began visually scanning the vehicle, the driver identified as Dailen Brewer appeared to be pointing a revolver towards Sgt Frazier at the door panel... Sgt Frazier saw the barrel end of the revolver point in her direction. Brewer raised the revolver, then dropped then gun and raised both hands."

But when the body camera footage was released, the video did not show Brewer pointing a gun at Frazier.
According to a second Indianapolis Star review of the nearly six-minute recording, Brewer's hands are not visible during every moment of the footage, but when Frazier opens the driver's door, both Brewer and his passenger can be seen with their hands raised.

To be a successful pastorpreneur, you have to totally deconstruct the belief system.

No one who actually believes the things they say would do the things they do. You can tell they don’t believe it. That’s why they have qualms or guilt about taking advantage like they do.
LordReed:
I hypotheses that they don't really believe in the end of the world shtick at least not after a certain period. Younger believers tend to believe it more but as they age and experience more of life they see that this thing is as ephemeral as smoke. That is when they begin to create empires. Oyakhilome, Oyedepo, Adegboye, etc. Look at their earlier ministry, it was about waiting for the 2nd coming. Now, it is about consolidating their organisations. You hardly hear them talk about it much.

I am seriously thinking of joining them. Religious fervor is so sweet to milk.
Celebrities › Re: Did Chidimma Adetshina Perform Her Duties As Miss Universe Nigeria? by cococandy(f): 3:12pm On Aug 23
Nigerians didn’t ask for your help on the issue.
RandDigital:
A pageant queen's hard work doesn't end when the crown is laid upon her head, it often continues months and years after her reign.

In the case of national glory, the queen is often looked upon to engage in social upliftment programmes throughout a timespan that often lasts a year until her successor is crowned.

The reigning queen often takes up causes to alleviate violence against women and children, poverty or healthcare, among others.

However, Chidimma Adetshina as Miss Universe Nigeria, Miss Africa and 1st runner up at Miss Universe did none of these, instead she abandoned her responsibilities and returned to her home country South Africa within weeks of her reign and disappeared into obscurity.

One has to ask of the organisers that invited her to Miss Universe Nigeria after she pulled out of Miss SA - were there no contractual obligations to keep her in Nigeria to carry out these duties?

As a Nigerian, does this sit comfortably with you?

If they want to give us cheap beef, we need to see the beef whole. We need steaks and roasts. Chunks that can be seen and identified for the animal it came from.

Ask yourself why they have to go to the trouble of grinding it first.

And outside of the conspiracy theory itself, what sane government slaughters protected animals? That in itself is all the fact needed for sufficient outrage.

IjeBos, Armybabe, Roland17, PDPguy, etc pls be careful eating ground beef this season. Especially after Trump and his administration rounded up protected wild horses and are illegally slaughtering them.

Then he’s turning around to announce the sale of cheap ground beef. Not that steaks or any recognizable cuts of meat will be cheaper. Something smells fishy.

https://www.nairaland.com/8733059/americas-collapse-imminent-trump-now
I think people who are excited about eating cheap ground beef under Trump’s administration should be extra careful.

Because does it have to be ground? If he’s interested in making beef affordable, why not all beef? Why not the steaks, the roasts, the T-bones, etc.

Why not make the recognizable parts of the animal affordable? Why does it have to be ground (arguably more processing steps) only to sell it cheaper.

I read it when you posted this and I was like that is weird that it has to be ground beef and not all beef, so I decided to investigate more and this is what’s happening.

I’m sure there’s no connection at all 🙄

This week, the New York Times reported that several hundred of America’s wild horses have been sold to slaughter, in a total betrayal of public trust, congressional direction and the historic legislation that first set the stage for their protection in the mid-twentieth century.

Tragically, this isn’t the first time that the Bureau of Land Management has fallen down on the job. The BLM is the primary agency tasked with the responsibility to manage these majestic animals, who live on public lands, and to ensure that the wild horses and burros who are rounded up go to reputable homes. Instead, the agency has set the stage for their betrayal and deaths

No honor in this administration
BREAKING: ICE has arrested a man who bravely infiltrated al-Qaeda for the U.S. government following 9/11.



Blerim Skoro's work hiding among history's most brutal terrorists directly led to the conviction of al-Qaeda operatives.

Now ICE is trying to deport Skoro, who has an American wife and three children, back to Kosovo.

Previously in 2022, an immigration court granted Skoro permission to remain in the United States. It ruled that not only is Skoro at risk of being tortured and killed should he return to Kosovo but that his work in stopping al-Qaeda should allow him to stay in America.

Skoro put his life in jeopardy to help bring 9/11 terrorists to justice. Now, ICE is committing a grand injustice by trying to deport him.

What even is conservative research?

Scientific research has nothing to with conservatism or otherwise. Science is an unbiased practice and all credible scientific data are peer-reviewed and reproduced repeatedly to prove or disprove results.

If you feel like conservative research isn’t getting the attention or funding, then it’s more than likely that it's flawed and not credible information.

Heidi being a doctor should KNOW that peer review and evidence-based practice is what has improved modern medical research and medicine to where we are able to cure things that were erstwhile incurable.

I hate when people who should and do know better sell their souls for money and acquiescence to power.

For them it means "thoughts and prayers" going forward. Clearly many of Trump’s picks for the CDC/FDA own companies that sell wellness products/supplements or shill for supplement companies, and/or own stock in them. The goal of these "leaders" is to make healthcare unaffordable, make Americans afraid of prescription meds, make them distrust physicians and medical procedures.

Remove trust in evidence-based medicine and Americans will begin grasping at anything online (like their ivermectin craze) that promises to cure their illness or injury. It also feeds into the ultra right-wing mindset of "just pray your sickness away".

It makes vulnerable, frightened people more susceptible to religious influences. As a Christian, I’m sick of watching grifters using religion to get rich and gain political power.
