ICYMI — “I identified myself as a U.S. citizen and a veteran, but that didn't matter. ICE Agents smashed my window, sprayed tear gas and pepper spray into my car, dragged me out… this experience violated the very principles I fought to defend.”

He can afford not to choose sides. However, his ignorance about the purpose of DEI & spewing it out to an audience is ridiculous. DEI isn't about whether or not we're the best. It's about us being the best and getting passed over because we're BLACK.

If anyone had any lingering doubt that our government is controlled by white nationalists and racists, I hope this finally opens their eyes. It’s out in the open now.

Shabana Mahmood casually saying they're gonna take migrant's jewellery off them has got me thinking about that scene in Schindler's List where the Jewish family wrap family heirlooms in bread and swallow them.

What the fuck are we?

Exactly. It’s partly we’re in this current mess (remembering how somehow Kamala wasn’t tough enough on Israel for some people, as if 47 would have been better).
Y'all SEVERELY underestimate the work of rebuilding vs the ease of tearing down, you also only think your individual issues are the priorities, and this siloed, the-way-I-want-it-or-nothing costs us the long game every time.

“Structural ignorance.” Yes.
Public health depends on citizens accepting scientifically-grounded guidance. When official institutions produce politically-determined science and independent verification infrastructure is eliminated, the capacity for evidence-based health policy collapses, writes Renée DiResta.

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

Over the past week, the president said the DOJ should pay him a quarter billion dollars, bulldozed half the White House to build himself a gaudy ballroom, bragged about murdering civilians in international waters, pardoned some more criminals, directed federal prosecutors to indict his opponents ...

Things I Liked About Joe Biden:

He didn't put tacky bric-a-brac all over the Oval Office.

He didn't kidnap or torture.

He didn't accept bribes.

He didn't murder fishermen.

He didn't shake down the DOJ for $230 million.

He didn't destroy a wing of the White House.

He wasn't in Epstein's Files.

Wow! Jenny Cohn has researched the tech Bros & who’s running US media now. We who don’t have a lot of time for this research really appreciate the time it has taken her to find all of this info, bundle it & post it. Very frightening information. We are being Managed by BigTech far more than we know!

David Ellison, the head of Paramount/CBS, is a Nepo Baby son of billionaire psycho Larry Ellison, who just bought TikTok and wants to buy Warner Bros/Discovery (CNN, HBO).

He's the biggest private donor to Israel, hard core right wing Zionist and Trump supporter.

Bari Weiss is their Luca Brasi.

When I wrote this in January, people said I was an alarmist. Today, the New York Times reported that “Senior officials in the federal government have taken over a conservative media entity to talk about a crackdown on anti-conservative thought and speech.”

Yes, a crackdown on thought and speech.
