MN Doctor: I learned that Renee Good still had a pulse 8 minutes after she was shot by an ICE agent. Yet the offer to administer aid from a physician on the scene was denied. I can't say how much that stirs the blood of everyone here as we try to fulfill our oath to care for the people of Minnesota

hard to believe that the Charlie Kirk firings / pearl clutchings happened mere months ago but here we are
Nick Fuentes urging Trump to invoke the Insurrection Act in Minnesota: "Bro, do it. Do something. Just stop chickening out. I'm just tired of the idle threats... Please pull the trigger. Please kill them, Mr. President. Please just kill them."

“But what deeply troubles me now is that for all the steps we've taken toward integration, I've come to believe that we are integrating into a burning house." 

Dr. King said this famous quote on March 27th, 1968, mere days before his murder. But the context around the quote is interesting...

the Black freedom movement had a more expansive focus than civil rights. It was messy and contested by multiple tendencies. The sanitized retelling doesn't serve anyone.

Consistently doubling down on everything they do because they are incapable of apologizing for wrongdoing or acknowledging they've made a mistake makes these Nazis incredibly sclerotic as politicians. If if weren't for elite capitulation we'd have pushed them into the sea by now. We still will.
