The kid’s name is Nevada. The other kids are all older than him, but he’s still better than those other kids, whose parents called the police because it wasn’t “fair.” The family was escorted out by police, and Nevada’s registration in the league was revoked and refunded. Kick racism out instead.
They called the cops on this 3-year-old Black boy because he was kickin the white kids' ass on the soccer field.

One of the big findings in my research is that people invested in disbelieving victims are not swayed by evidence. Just like other issues of misinformation, they cherry pick irrelevant details to allow them to continue to believe whatever they want.
You know what pissed me off about the Ramaswamy ad beyond the obvious grotesqueries? There’s no EVIDENCE disputing Acton’s life story. There are court proceedings backing up her story. And all Ramaswamy’s got is the (accused) mother saying “nu uh” and somehow that’s enough? FOR THE REPUBLICAN PARTY

protesters disrupting the early part of Trump's speech have become a regular occurrence at his recent rallies. happened again just now, two in succession

To put this in perspective chestnut trees used to be dominant species in the United States. Billions of trees were killed by fungal blight and now fully grown America chestnuts are functionally extinct. There is no getting them back. Ever. All for a data center. www.gadgetreview.com/one-of-ameri...

The downtown Neiman Marcus flagship was one of the first major Dallas businesses that broke with these practices. In 1961, the company desegregated its Zodiac Room, a swanky lunch spot frequented by Dallas elites. Later, they welcomed Black shoppers to come and buy clothes without restrictions.
The judge’s opinion on this is amazing:“…in the exceptional circumstances posed by this case, the government has no right to retain the ability to compound the errors it has already made, or even to threaten to do so”
