Hanging? We need to call this what it is: LYNCHING. Ten Black Americans in less than two years. Every one of these deaths deserves answers, transparency, and scrutiny. No one should look at these images and expect Black Americans to shrug this off, especially in light of our history.

"Fiscal Conservatism" is a made up bullshit term that is cover for the wealthy and powerful to spend public money on things like bombs instead of things like healthcare. It's really just manipulative jargon no different than "the immigrants are causing _______!!!"

NEW: President Trump makes four false claims in a 43-word post about Tina Peters. Peters is 70 (not 73), does not have cancer, was sentenced by a judge in Mesa County (not the Governor), and did not expose fraud in the 2020 presidential election.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

So many loser incel dorks who got rejected by women in high school can now cosplay and pretend to be "real men" by joining ICE. Looking at the men of MAGA and the Trump Administration...that tracks.

In an unforgettable Veterans Day moment, former President Barack Obama surprised dozens of Korean and Vietnam War veterans as their Honor Flight landed in Washington, D.C. The veterans, fresh off their flight from Madison, Wisconsin, were greeted by President Obama himself.

Trump: I demolished the People’s House for my big beautiful ballroom paid for by my rich friends so we can throw lavish parties while millions starve without health care. Tonight… The People: Our turn, motherfucker.

CHICAGO: “My uncle was on his way home from getting groceries on his bike — they grabbed him and choked him and punched him… he’s a kind hardworking man. They’re racially profiling people.” Trump’s ICE goons put an elderly man in the hospital and nearly choked him to death.

I’ve had time to reflect. Political violence is NEVER the answer. But. If Kirk himself felt that the children of Sandy Hook, MSD, and the countless other victims of guns were necessary to protect our second amendment, then I’m at peace with his own justification for his own death if he is.

And now, Ryan Walters, the Oklahoma school superintendent who (among other morality-boosting moves) wanted to put Trump bibles into every classroom. But he failed, apparently, to close an, erm, browser window during a board meeting kfor.com/video/invest...

You wouldn’t vacation in Dachau in 1935. Don’t vacation in Florida in 2025.

We’re calling for a Florida boycott over the inhumane “Alligator Alcatraz” detention site. Cancel your family vacation and choose a different destination this summer.

ICE now has 3x more funding than the United States Marine Corps. Our hard-earned taxpayer money. Over $170+ billion handed over, and for what? To rip families apart. To instill fear. To dismantle the very virtues by which this country was built. To help the rich get richer.
