I’ll never forget hearing Donald Trump’s racist “shithole countries” comment in a 2018 Oval Office meeting about immigration.
Tom Cotton and David Perdue claimed Trump didn’t say it and accused me of lying.

TRUMP: “I said why is it we only take people from shithole countries? Why can't we have some people from Norway, Sweden, Denmark… But we always take people from Somalia— places that are filthy, dirty, disgusting.”
Such a mystery what he means when he says this stuff, isn’t it?

I'd like to see the next Dem candidate for president (and the entire party) run on a platform of immediately recognizing the ICC and supporting its prosecutions of all who violate international law including heads of state promoting murder, piracy, etc. Hold them accountable.

the only thing that doesn’t appear to be illegal race discrimination to the conservative legal movement is actual racist discrimination
worth noting here that the position of the conservative legal movement is that trying to remedy environmental racism is itself illegal race discrimination

This is a key problem thinking about, eg, the base of evidence we'd need to produce as scholars for a renewed VRA. What evidence would SCOTUS find justifies 15th A powers? Is there any? This, as much as anything, is why we need court reform

This post by the world’s richest and most divorced man on the site he bought to promote his far right extremism is ripped straight from the Klan messaging of the 1870s or the 1915 film Birth of a Nation that inspired the Klan’s rebirth as a PR stunt/Ponzi scheme/terrorist organization in the 1920s.
