Civil rights leader Jesse Jackson has passed away at the age of 84. My thoughts are with his family.

I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

Says the man colonising Monaco to avoid paying tax in his own country. What an F ing Hypocrite. And wrong on the numbers, immigration is falling fast, its 20% of what it was under the Tories.

Oh do fuck off. All these big business owners are pushing the right wing narrative, as they continue to avoid taxes and mistreat staff.

I'm sick of them all.

United fans should demand Ratcliffe leaves the club-He's an absolute disgrace

Manchester United cannot be thought of as a racist organisation

Why hasn't the bloke apologised yet for getting the facts about immigrants completely wrong?

He would make a perfect Reform MP

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Heads are going to explode 💥

Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third.

All that “immigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit.

SEEING IS BELIEVING

DHS claims the car being chased rammed the ICE vehicle. The video shows the opposite.

📌 A father and son, a US citizen, are chased. The teen is beaten and seriously injured. The father is deported.

DHS lied. The video tells the truth. Excellent reporting by Antonia Hylton.
