Prime example of white privilege in plain sight.

Black kids get called adults to justify blame, while white adults get called “kids” to excuse their hate. They’re not boys and girls, they’re grown-ass men and women, and the receipts are in writing.

I caught an article earlier that hegseth head is also on the chopping block in the administration (implied before January)due to his handling of several issues. Signalgate, inflammatory remarks and how he handles the press

I wonder if we had a media source in the states, with that much money & influence, would do with progressive views on these elections.
Hell Medicare for all polls in over 60% but we ask for crumbs.

Its already shameful how we treat those that signed on the line to give their life for us all. Sad

“I spent three nights and three days in federal custody. During that time, I was never told what I was charged with, was not allowed to shower despite being covered in tear gas and pepper spray, had no phone call to my family, and no access to an attorney.” - George Retes, U.S. citizen and veteran.

I’m a US citizen and a veteran. ICE arrested me for no reason.

Jailed for three days without an explanation or ability to notify anyone, George Retes argues the only path to healing starts with the government taking accountability for its actions.

We get this question a lot and I thought we should answer it for everyone. I have not taken support from America Israel Political Action Committee (AIPAC) nor am I taking support from Council on American - Islamic Relations (CAIR). Keep the questions coming. I'll answer them all.

Bondi will investigate Chris Wray in about a week- basesly of course, to muddy the waters for when the real trial for Jan 6th is going to happen.

Tens of thousands of Palestinians are walking back to Gaza City as the Israeli military begins its withdrawal from the area following the ceasefire agreement.

Al Jazeera’s Tareq Abu Azzoum is there, watching what he described as ‘an endless tide of humans’.
