This majestic self-own brought to you by the r/TexasPolitics subreddit
Reddit reply in an argument about Brandon Herrera:

"Herrera regards Clarence Thomas as his 'Supreme Court spirit animal'. Where's the white supremacy in having such great respect for a black man?

"Again, argue about it all you want, but he is clearly running with good will, even for dummies like you."

"Should we call to abolish ICE?" This question makes me think of a good friend's mom who once had a middle school student submit a science project called, "Should we cook our meat?" The answer is "Yes, we should fucking cook our meat."

Chicago Mayor Issues Defiant Call For A General Strike
It was an audacious proposal, given that the U.S. has never held a true, nationwide general strike.

I'd go one further and say that they don't really care if their prosecutions stick. All that matters is the initial media message. The court of public opinion is what they care about.

This is a recurring theme today. While I was grabbing beer(s) off the Western Blue Line stop (northern) around 5:30 today, I heard horns honking and whistles blowing. Looked up to see bikes and cars chasing what I assume were feds west, people shouting "La Migra!" as they passed.

So I checked on Airbnb for the cost of a lakefront rental in Uganda. Prices for two nights range from <$100 to around $350, with the exception of one that costs $822 and comes with a full private staff. Pretty sure NYP would have mentioned that, though. They probably all have monkeys.

Returning to a subject I was discussing this morning on X, I think a single video like this does more to radicalize people against ICE than any loaded rhetoric any politician has ever used, and DHS should think very hard about the consequences of supporting this kind of behavior from its agents.

According to them, escaping enslavement, teaching yourself to read, becoming the greatest speechifier on Earth & buying your own freedom, a set of feats that no white person has ever achieved, is DEI.
After finding employment as a laborer, Douglass began to attend abolitionist meetings and speak about his experiences. He soon gained a reputation as an orator, and was paid to speak about slavery by the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society. This took him on speaking tours across the North and Midwest.
Douglass's fame as an orator increased as he traveled. Still, some of his audiences suspected he had never been enslaved. In 1845, he published his first autobiography, The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, to lay those doubts to rest.
The narrative gave a clear record of names and places from his enslavement.
To avoid being captured and re-enslaved, Douglass traveled overseas. For almost two years, he gave speeches and sold copies of his narrative in England, Ireland, and Scotland. When abolitionists offered to purchase his freedom, Douglass accepted and returned home to the United States legally free. The Douglass family relocated to Rochester, New York.
