The IOC is corrupt as hell and doesn't care about Democracy. They sneaked russians into the 2024 Paris olympics with their INA/AIN capitulation.

#Canada can learn a thing or two from #MexicoSheinbaum on restricting information to Canadian media that is #propoganda from the USA. #cdnpoli

Terrific piece by @stephenmaher.bsky.social on the upsurge in Canadian nationalism provoked by the short-fingered vulgarian.

Beyoncé's internet was invented to mock Elon and SpaceX. Those are the rules, I didn't make them.

On Juneteenth, we celebrate Black freedom, resilience, culture, and the enduring strength of community across generations. We acknowledge our nation’s full history and the long, ongoing fight for freedom and justice for Black Americans.

Happy Juneteenth! Today we celebrate freedom hard won and honor the strength, resilience, and courage of those who fought for it. Let’s use this day to learn, reflect, and take action for true justice. Freedom is a journey. Let’s keep moving forward together.

LOL Spacex Starship. Anything which thwarts Musk (and those immoral enough to work for him) is a good thing.

Coming soon: BREAKING: DONALD TRUMP APPROVES PLANS TO STRIKE CANADA. FINAL ORDER ON HOLD AWAITING CANADA'S COMPLIANCE WITH TRUMP'S DEMAND TO ABANDON LGBTQ RIGHTS. This will be used for everything. My fellow white people voted for it.

Racism and Cowardice are the two biggest obstacles faced by the USA right now.

Treats the world and innocent lives like it's a TV show; it's the only way he views the world around him. "Tune in next time and find out who dies."

Adriana Smith did not give birth to a baby. She was used as an incubator, cut open, and a baby was taken out of her lifeless body. A Black woman was used as a science experiment.

Ok so, this is absolutely wild. I *knew* there was something I didn’t trust about that Alt National Park Service account; this thread is really well-done.

Someone must have exposed her to facts.

In rural Nebraska, where I grew up in the 1970s, as a kid I remember a xeroxed, crudely drawn racist cartoon making the rounds mocking the Black players of the Nebraska Cornhuskers football team. Claiming they were dumb, exaggerated features, etc. Of course football is a near-religion there.

If you’ve heard me mention my ordeal with police then FBI during my last wks at UVa Law in Charlottesville, you might know it almost ended my law career before it started. It also piqued my interest in Higher Ed Law. Here’s my post from 2017, once I was finally able to speak publicly about it all.🧵

This is either trump being too stupid to realize broadcasting this knowledge might cause the "target" to relocate, or others posting on his account hoping this statement will flush the target out for detection. I guarantee you the Iranians aren't that stupid.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Debbie Harry is the only person ever to use the word 'sacroiliac' in a song.

You will never get a livable wage. You will never get free or affordable healthcare. You will never get lower college tuition or reduced college debt. You will never have affordable housing, be it a house or an apartment. You will *never* have these things …until y’all stop hating Black People.

Most americans will get absolute dusted by this information. lmfao Why? Because the very first sentence in this will force them to shut their brains off. www.acpjournals.org/doi/10.7326/...

Proud of our Chief for staying and looking the convicted felon in the eye. A’ho! 🪶🙌🏽🇨🇦 #IndigenousHistoryMonth #G7

Cuomo doesn’t just get to rehabilitate himself from sexual harassment because he’s rich and powerful. He gets to because he’s a man. It’s the same situation for everyday, ordinary men, while women from all walks of life are not just denied justice but punished for asking for it

Ted Bundy is one of the most famous U.S. serial killers. He escaped police custody/jail not once but twice. Police do not keep you safe. They respond after crimes and collect evidence, often butchering that simple task.

Civil Rights juggernaut Rev. Dr. John M. Perkins (my grandpa) has touched more people’s lives than anyone could count. Today, every white American should be required to read his 1st book from 1976. It tells his story; one of restorative justice, faith, hope and progress. Presumably banned soon. 🖤🖤

Hey so look, I hate to break it to you people: but while your beloved Rachel Maddow is, of course, quite intelligent, she doesn’t know the first thing about the collective action and activism that’d be required for White America to halt, much less reverse Project 2025’s implementation. Carry on!! 🇺🇸

Stop listening to her. She's a Bro. Unstoppable? Nah. Show me wypipo *SUSTAINING* this energy, LONG TERM, or it's just another Occupy Wall Street. The second it's cold, or uncomfortable, or just boring, y'all are out. You look for the next shiny social issue.
