They just want to hide everything that makes them feel the least bit uncomfortable. They want history to just show the "good stuff"
Here in Philadelphia, the National Park Service dismantled exhibits about slavery in Independence National Historical Park.

This is, in my opinion, not only the correct moral/ethical/legal position but also the correct political framing. Everyone can see the agency is out of control; everyone can see that it is constantly violating human rights. "Scrap it and start over" is the moderate position.
Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."

We cannot normalize this federal occupation of Minneapolis.
It is not normal to watch people abducted in front of our eyes—dragged from car windows, pulled from their homes, and children left without parents.
This is not about immigration. It’s about unchecked cruelty.

It’s been one month since 100% of the Epstein files were due by Act of Congress. Thus far they’ve only released .6% of them and are using murder and war to distract you from this fact.

In Germany, a lot of houses have these Stolpersteines on their sidewalks or stoops. They’re a memorial to victims of the Holocaust who were ripped from that home. Some houses have a few. Other houses have many.

That Trump contacted major oil companies and his political donors about the attack on Venezuela and has not met with Congress is a matter of fact.
This is Trump's world of pure corruption for personal gain, and screw the people of the United States, much less the people of Venezuela on display.
