Black people told y’all that race was the foundation of all of this bullshit. And as usual we were dismissed, condescended to, and told we were wrong. And yet this administration keeps showing us what time it is. Just an observation.

They know that he sexually abuses women. They heard the weird shit he said about his daughter. They know about grab them in the pussy. It didn’t matter. Was he worried about the Epstein files when he gassed people for a photo op in 2020? This is an additional thing. Not a distraction.

Racism against white people is not and has never been a thing. Zero white people are oppressed because they are white. Unlike ALL other races, white people encounter zero race-based obstacles. Further, every white person enjoys automatic, unearned benefits—because they are white; no other reason.

Alabama voters banned prison slavery — but prisoners say it hasn’t stopped As a lawsuit from incarcerated workers tries to stop a forced prison labor program, a beer distributor is defending its own participation www.whatimreading.net/p/alabama-vo...
In its March 2024 legal response to the allegations, Bama Budweiser does not meaningfully address the constitutional issue — whether Alabama’s prison labor system violates the state’s explicit ban on slavery. Instead, the company’s brief resorts to a series of dehumanizing attacks and dangerous arguments that seek to delegitimize the plaintiffs themselves.

The brief opens by arguing that the plaintiffs “never worked for Bama Budweiser,” and therefore the claims should be dismissed. This, of course, ignores that the company has contracted with ADOC to knowingly obtain and benefit from the labor of incarcerated workers. But Bama Budweiser’s response then quickly shifts into something much darker. In one of the most inflammatory passages, the company writes:

“What we have, then, are two murderers, an attempted murderer, multiple violent felons, robbers, burglars, and drug dealers. And they come into this Court complaining about having to work for a beer distributor.”

This ruling prioritizes the discomfort and fear of some non-trans people over the health and wellbeing of trans youth. It disregards science and every major medical authority. It endorses the state controlling parents and doctors. Every resulting suicide is on the hands of these anti-trans justices.

🚨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles. Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.
One attorney, Lizbeth Mateo, said ICE officials slated several of her clients for check-ins at the Edward R. Roybal Federal Building in downtown L.A. but when they showed up on Tuesday, they were detained and immediately escorted to the basement.

Mateo said a couple and their two children, one of whom is a U.S. citizen, spent the night in a room with no beds and limited access to food and water. Mateo said the father had previously been issued a stay of removal, barring him from deportation but he and his family were detained anyway. His wife was released Wednesday evening along with their children since she needed medical attention due to a high-risk pregnancy. He was still being detained early Friday, Mateo said.
