Real can’t see the forest for the trees energy with people yelling at/about dems in this moment. Hold them accountable, of course, but we are not where we are because of democrats. These are republican policies enacted by a republican administration. We are here because people voted for republicans.

I remain absolutely furious that all this shit in Minneapolis started because a barely-literate homeschooled mormon made a video trying to run up in daycare centers trying to find people of Somalian descent doing fraud despite the ringleader (a white woman) being in jail since March. Demonic.

The Second Amendment folks are gradually realizing that government thugs shooting Americans who are legally carrying firearms might not be in their best interest after all. 🤔

I've been informed that the man in this video is Matthew James Obadiah Allen, better known as Twin Cities hip hop artist Nur-D
Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

Are you a tech worker or tech company leader who sees what's happening in Minnesota—and across the US—as the tipping point for no longer being silent about your personal politics? My DMs are open; Signal handle is in my bio.

Sen. Dick Durbin, another one of the 8 Democratic YES votes on Nov funding bill, is a NO on this DHS measure: “I will not vote to fund the illegal DHS and ICE operations that terrorize Chicago, Minneapolis, and many other communities.”

Alex and tens of thousands of Minnesotans have boldly defended their neighbors against the murderous occupation of an American city by the federal government. I am enraged and heartbroken for Alex, his family, Minneapolis, and America.

Since July, I've tracked at least 2,300 cases in which federal judges have ruled ICE has illegally detained people without bond or due process.
This is one that stands out:

But but the price of eggs. Judging by the reactions to this you can tell which white people really have strong relationships with black folks.
How I know Black people know white people better than we know ourselves:
Black people said we would set our privileges on fire rather than extend them to everyone.
Now we have evidence. In 2024, white folks voted away our privilege of not being shot by the government.
Equity woulda been easier.

Remember that SNL sketch from after the 2016 election where the white liberals were freaking out that Trump was actually elected but the three Black people in the room basically shrugged cause they weren't surprised? Yeah, I ain't stopped listening to Black people since then. They know us so well.

No truer words have been spoken. Equity has always been the easier route since 1865, and America never takes the easy route.
