Great moments in U.S. History.

These are the ancestors of the people who you all have decided are not full citizens of this country. I dare you to watch and not look away this Memorial Day weekend

Preempting Jeopardy for the draft makes me lose hope.

Everyone needs to stop what they’re doing and watch this video. “It seems like there’s a lack of diversity here today, and it’s mostly people who look like you and me, and I just…?” This lady’s response is🔥

The secretary of Miami-Dade County’s GOP started a group chat for conservative students — and within 3 weeks, it was filled with over 400 instances of the N-word, Nazi rhetoric and writings of "dozens of ways of violently killing Black people"

Inbox: the Corporation for Public Broadcasting’s board has voted to dissolve the organization following Congress pulling its federal funding

I hate it here.

I wrote about the 2025 cycle and women candidates and New Jersey www.nytimes.com/2025/10/22/o...

South Koreans held their government accountable earlier this year. And now they’re protesting for American’s rights and democracy on No Kings too! Thank you South Korea! #NoKings ❌👑

"Black people are tired. Not metaphorically tired—actually tired. The kind of tired that turns every group chat into a mix of gallows humor and emotional triage." I write about white ignorance and how exhausting it is to hear white ppl insist "this isn't who we are, when it's ALWAYS who we've been.

One thing that comes through awfully clearly in these ICE videos is how many of these goons gravitated toward the job because being able to assault people with impunity is a big thrill for them.

Nikole Hannah-Jones, going straight to the point, as ever. Racism is not a policy perspective to be debated. It's hate speech.

@jeopardyofficial.bsky.social Please bring Erik back for Celebrity Jeopardy.

#NJ "Jack Ciattarelli responded to a question about the erasure of Black history by asserting — then lecturing us — on Columbus Day being 'the first civil rights holiday.'”

They are literally canceling culture

“The Department of Justice has removed a study showing that white supremacist and far-right violence “continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism” in the United States.” www.404media.co/doj-deletes-...

They will be called ICE Youth and when the historical parallels are pointed out they will act like it's insane to draw that comparison

A movie about an undocumented immigrant fighting an evil billionaire on behalf of the masses and winning is coming to theaters this week. It will piss off all the right people. Love it. #superman

One of our earliest civil rights statutes was designed to protect us against masked gangs who violate our constitutional rights. This particular history makes the masked ICE gangs uniquely repugnant. open.substack.com/pub/sherrily...

Now I want tacos.

“Of course they don’t explain… The crowd chants "Don't take the mother!" over and over again…” A harrowing account of this horrific scene in Worcester, as ICE grabbed a woman without telling anyone why over the screams over her family: www.welcometohellworld.com/they-dont-ne...

A real throwback to those “Hitler trolls Poland with threats of invasion” headlines from the old days.

It’s simple: it’s anti-Black racism.

The dead possum approach of Chuck Schumer or the raging filibuster of Cory Booker. Which one is more effective?

Protect Medicaid Rally in Trenton NJ

Remember when the United States was in trouble and both Mexico and Canada sent firefighters to help us? And this is how we replay them. The United States is that toxic, ungrateful friend that you wish you had cut out of your life sooner.

LOL

Who knew the arrangement of a couple snow shovels could be quietly heart-lifting? In case anyone was wondering where most of southern Maine stands on the subject of Ukraine’s plight…

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

A disgraceful day.

If you’ve ever attempted to transition, or ever been diagnosed with gender dysphoria, no matter how distinguished your military service, Hegseth wants you out. (The so-called “waiver” is only for people who aren’t trans). www.nytimes.com/2025/02/27/u...

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

Turns out the Dow doesn’t love it

Trump is stomping around the world like a stick-up thug. It’s a disgrace.

I can hear Trump throwing his Egg McMuffin against the wall.

Despite patriarchy's persistence, growing numbers of men believe they have it worse off than women. And, new research shows this "male victimhood" ideology is most common among men who aren't facing hardship. Which means what they're really feeling is status loss. 1/ www.psypost.org/male-victimh...
