I always said she was his handler meanwhile folks act like she's some sort of victim that needs to be rescued.

I've been watching the NSA leadership page since Trump axed top two in command of the org. There were only 2 Black staffers. The woman, Marlisa L. Smith, former Chief of Staff has been replaced.

BlueSky banned my friend Mohammed Ahmed once again, this time after posting how he will lose his land because of Trump’s plan for Gaza.

He asked me to share this with you all.

Hello my brothers / I have some words that I must say from the beginning when I was displaced from Rafah I had great hope to return to my land which is located near the Philadelphi axis where my house, sheep and trees are. I was planning to rebuild everything from scratch with donations and I will not hide from you a secret that I was saving part of the money I received from donations to rebuild that. I was planning to connect water and build wooden or tin houses and connect water and start planting olive trees and buy 10 sheep and start establishing a herd and life goes on. / But a few days ago I saw Trump's plan to end the war. I was surprised that the plan includes a buffer zone on the Philadelphi axis and this news was like a thunderbolt for me. My land that my grandfather inherited from me, I will never return to it / Politicians are planning without considering the psychological and material damage that will befall me and my family as a result of this plan / I want to ask you, is this fair? Of course not / I will say something in the end. I swear that now I do not have an alternative plan for all this tragedy that | have been exposed to / I will honestly tell everyone that from now on I am not collecting money to buy food and tents / Rather, l am collecting money for something bigger than that. Now I must provide a better future for my children after their tand was occupied / All I want from vou is for vou to understand what

without considering the psychological and material damage that will befall me and my family as a result of this plan / I want to ask you, is this fair? Of course not / I will say something in the end. I swear that now I do not have an alternative plan for all this tragedy that | have been exposed to / I will honestly tell everyone that from now on I am not collecting money to buy food and tents / Rather, I am collecting money for something bigger than that. Now I must provide a better future for my children after their land was occupied / All I want from you is for you to understand what lam saying with your hearts and minds / What will I say to my seventy-year-old mother? Will I tell her that you will not return to your trees?
Or will I tell her that you will end up displaced from a tent that is not fit to live in? Or will I tell her that we must leave Gaza and go to another country? / Believe me, I am writing words that come from my heart to your hearts / You are my community that has always stood by me for many long months / That is enough because I write and cry

lol minorities who hate minorities are learning the hard truth of what it means to be a minority in this country.

Tap dancing for the devil and expecting to get blessed is wild.

That's being very generous because his treasonous ass needs to be [redacted] in front of a [redacted] squad.

It's Ezra Klein telling TNC that his scope is too wide while TNC knows that wide scope is how we built our radar for what's to come while Ezra and his ilk still get to act intellectually shocked at all that's happening. Stop debating these folks and get with people willing to listen/be accountable.

There are studies showing that a person who smokes, drinks, and has higher body fat, but lifts will have better health outcomes than someone who doesn't smoke or drink but also doesn't lift. Muscle makes that much difference. You don't need visible abs, just the muscle
