Holy sh*t!

WATCH THIS. He gets it right Nottoway Plantation: the so-called “White Castle”, burned down. With it, a monument to whitewashed brutality. We don’t need romanticized nostalgia for slavery. We need truth. Let this be the end of pretending these places were anything but what they were: crime scenes.

NOBODY WANTS THE FELON

Yes, we noticed. You're still here.

As soon as President Trump took office this year, he effectively eliminated the Office of Gun Violence Prevention by an executive order entitled “Protecting Second Amendment Rights,” exalting "a right to keep and bear arms” as the most important right held by Americans.

Republicans just blocked their own "big, beautiful bill" that would kick millions of Americans off their health care...because it doesn't cut Medicaid enough.

BREAKING: The House GOP just failed to pass their Big Ugly Bill out of the Budget Committee. They're fighting over how many Americans to rip health care and food away from. Keep up the pressure.

Stand with Judge Dugan! May Elohim be her Just Judge!

Reading the story about the woman in Georgia who is brain dead and on a vent but not allowed to die with dignity because she was 9 weeks pregnant when she was declared brain dead. Even in death, our bodies are not our own. State-owned property.

Louder

U.S. Rep. Ramirez (D) does not hold back on DHS Secretary Noem: “You have profiled and dehumanized our neighbors … You've broken the law, you've engaged in corruption and you've weaponized the immigration system to violate our civil rights … You have betrayed the sacred fundamentals of your oath.”

The state of Georgia is keeping a deceased Black woman’s corpse hooked up to machines against her family’s wishes because she was 9 weeks pregnant and they cannot let them shut off the machines b/c it violates their anti-abortion laws “ITS TORTURE,” says her family www.11alive.com/article/news...

🛑 Share his Shame! 🛑

This is crazy.

Damn -- RFK Jr is startled by a demonstrator who starts yelling behind him and is then hauled out

There was one thing RFK Junior said today that made a lot of sense so I’m gonna share it:

Thank you @halfpricebooks.bsky.social for fighting www.nbcdfw.com/news/local/d...

Marjorie, I know the truth confuses you and facts ain’t your strong suit—so let me break it down real slow: George Floyd didn’t die from drugs. He died because Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for 9 minutes. That’s called murder.

MURRAY: How many staff have been cut from the NIH's clinical center? I want a specific number RFK Jr: I can't tell you that MURRAY: That's not acceptable

Baldwin to RFK Jr: "You cannot tell us that you want to make America healthy again when you are willfully destroying programs that keep children safe and healthy from lead poisoning ... the entire staff has been fired"

🔥 DAMN! — @benniegthompson to @kristinoem: “I’m glad you found time among your many photo ops and costume changes to testify.”

GOLDMAN: Will you give Abrego Garcia the due process the Supreme Court has required you to give him? NOEM: If he were to come back to this country, he would be immediately removed again G: How do you know? The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 that he hasn't been treated appropriately

Garcia to Noem: "Can you commit to just letting his mother know mother to mother if Andry is alive? He was given an asylum appointment by the United States government." (Noem wouldn't commit to it.)

Rep. Julie Johnson to Noem: "Are you aware that ICE agent jackets are available on Etsy for $20? Anybody can throw a mask on and run around and terrorize people of color without any regard for the law because your agency does not have proper protocols to make sure your agents are clearly identified"

In a fiery moment on the House floor, Rep. Tom Suozzi just tore into the GOP’s reconciliation package—exposing contradiction after contradiction. If you watch one clip today, make it this. 🎯🔥

Yes, I'm pissed about the jumbo jet too. But this is actually the most important story today.

BREAKING: The scene at the Rayburn Building is pure rebellion. Protesters are swarming in during live hearings on Medicaid cuts. Security’s losing control. Because when the government wages war on the poor, the poor fight back.

This is how it’s done! Take note!!📝

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the health secretary, posted photos on Sunday of himself and his grandchildren swimming in a contaminated Washington creek where swimming is not allowed because it is used for sewer runoff.

Aaaand there it is.

It's going to be increasingly important to read foreign news coverage of US politics as the domestic US media gets more afraid of continuing threats & intimidation from the Trump regime
