Louisiana: Plaintiffs said 'we want another majority-black district.'

Jackson: No. They said 'we aren't receiving equal electoral opportunity because our votes are being diluted.'

Louisiana: Same thing.

Jackson: No, it’s not.

Raised by his grandparents after his birth mother told everyone she was his sister, he challenges a deeply flawed identity imposed on him. Though his mother’s younger children are his half siblings, the family insists he’s their “uncle”—denying his true relationship. 🥚

His Biological Mom Had Him Early And Referred To Him As Her Brother, But When He Encourages Her Younger Kids To Call Him Uncle She Gets Upset

Sometimes being an uncle is harder than being a sibling—especially when someone can’t handle a little accuracy.

This is Chop. He was shot and killed by masked assailants in plain clothes who go by ICE. They showed up at his door "looking for migrants after receiving a tip." The son of the family asked if they could wait before entering the home while he put Chop away in the bathroom, as the dog can be aggressive with strangers.
According to the family, it is at this point that the son went to his pickup truck to retrieve his ID and a Border Patrol agent entered the home, opened the bathroom door, and shot Chop. None of the agents helped the family, who desperately tried to render aid to Chop, as he bled to death on the kitchen floor. Unsurprisingly, the agent who shot their dog then hid from them and refused to give his name. Even more unsurprising, they did not find any evidence of the migrants they were there to terrorize in the first place.
Do not open your door for these fucking losers. Rest easy Chop

Yes, please get your influenza and COVID-19 at the same time. It's safe and you will need protect with both viruses still circulating harming people globally.

You can get your COVID and flu vaccinations at the same time, but what’s best - one arm or two?

You can save time and money by getting two vaccinations (COVID-19 and flu) at the same time, and new research by the Doherty Institute finds that it doesn’t really matter which arm or arms the jab goes in.

I really hate the reassurance adoptees have to give their adoptive parents. It’s a burden that shouldn’t be placed on the ones who had no say in the process. 🥚
