Haven't been over here in a while. I really prefer this platform, but meaningful engagement and conversation is always a struggle. I will make another consertive effort towards more engagement and followers. Any suggestions?

Prosecutors will not bring criminal charges against sheriff’s officers who wrestled a Black man out of a car during a traffic stop and punched him multiple times, the local sheriff said Monday.

No charges for Jacksonville officers who punched Black man during arrest

William Anthony McNeil Jr. questioned why he was pulled over and refused to get out of the car. An officer smashed his window and punched him in the face, video shows.

Texas officials would rather witch hunt and hang the understaffed NWS officials and Park Rangers for “failing” rather than point their finger at where it’s due: at TRUMP and DOGE, who is directly responsible for this MESS. Smart Texans will see through this, red OR blue.

The only reason to end suicide prevention efforts designed for a specific vulnerable group of people is indifference to more of them committing suicide.

Breaking News (from the New York Times):
The federal suicide prevention hotline will no longer work with the Trevor Project or provide speciality support to LGBTQ callers.

There is no mass-deportation campaign going on right now. Deportation is a process. This is kidnapping and human trafficking.

Just a reminder that U.S. military personnel, whether in the National Guards or the Marines, are not trained for law enforcement. They are trained to kill, they are remarkably effective at it, and that is why there are such strict legal prohibitions on deploying military inside the United States.

Crockett: Instead of the President cosplaying as the next pope, he may want to cosplay as an actual President of these United States. That means he may have to do a little bit of research and understand that he swore a an oath to defend and protect the constitution.

In the wake of what Judge Dugan did (100% legal), now is a good time for everyone to know what she knows: An immigration or administrative warrant is *not* a judicial warrant. You are not obliged to obey it. Indeed, you can let the person out the back door. docs.google.com/presentation...

IF: you are a white woman who considers herself a feminist but do NOT instinctively support, trust, advance, and protect Black Women THEN: you are NOT a feminist; you are a white woman looking out for your fellow white women—and for yourself, by extension. It is no more complicated than that.

See this is what I mean. Mississippi is a state with a 40% Black population. African American candidate Mike Espy garnered nearly 45% of the vote in the 2020 General Election for the U.S. Senate. Why isn’t there a 10 yr Dem plan for organizing Mississippi? Why concede the state w/a 40% Black pop?

I don't understand how some folks are unable to see that the illegal disappearing of people is a class issue. The wealthy and well-connected get due process. The rest of us don't. This is part of the oligarchy, not a distraction from it.

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.
