Fellow whites,
It's on us to dismantle white supremacy. After the election, we see how badly we failed. Last year, I put out a blog series on antiracism basics. Read, share, maybe we can help white people see there's nothing to be scared of racial equity.

New Airship-style Wind Turbine Can Find Gusts at Higher Altitudes for Constant, Cheaper Power
At 40% cheaper to build and deploy than a normal turbine, it presents the opportunity for a 30% lower cost for buying the wind energy.

Dear young people,
Once upon a time in America products were built to last and could be repaired. That’s why your grandmother’s washing machine, refrigerator and stove still work. Their shoes could get a new sole and clothes altered.
Yep, the before times.

Us white folks had too many feelings about stuff and used our vote on our feelings instead of being pragmatic about the future of this country and the planet. When you no longer have rights in this country, or air to breathe, just cling to those feelings, that ought to be enough...
In other words, you can be sure:
IF 900-page Project 2025 mentions a law, govt agency or protective measure,
THEN the Christian White Nationalist overhaul either fully eliminates that law/agency/measure or redefines it to the point of being unrecognizable.
This is what White America chose for us.

As foremost Project 2025 expert, I can confidently confirm: the Christian White Nationalist overhaul permanently dissolves and rewrites all law and govt mentioned.

Here's the thing: Trump didn't lie when he said they were only going after the "worst of the worst" for ICE deportations. He views all non-white people as the "worst of the worst" and this is an excuse to get a large amount of them out of the country. Fellow whites, we were warned, but didn't care.

Took on 38 of these devastating I.C.E. kidnap cases, but can’t seem to get to my 5th successful outcome.
When we hit on obstruction, I usually move to the next appropriate case and keep trying.
After all this, months later, still stuck at 4 victories.

Update, I guess she's replacing another female judge who is retiring, so it'll be staying at 33% after all...
