NO FLUID was found in Nolan Wells' lungs or airways, per the autopsy report by the Mississippi State Medical Examiner. How do you die by "accidental drowning" if there is no water in your lungs?

Answer: Because Lindsay is a symbol of what happens to us when we try to go against the patriarchy - Plain and simple! But Lindsay, like us, lives to fight another day. I don’t believe in America, but I believe in America’s Avengers!

Lindsay Clancy’s murder trial has become a national cultural fixation and a social media spectacle, gripping and dividing spectators well beyond the Massachusetts courtroom where the 36-year-old mother is charged with killing her three children.

If the Orange Screamsicle really wanted fewer criminals in DC, he would leave.

The New York Times@nytimes.com

President Trump says Washington, D.C., is “unsafe” and “dirty” and “disgusting,” despite falling crime rates. He's also suggested that his background as a New York real estate developer makes him more suited than local authorities to blot out crime and homelessness in the nation’s capital.

nyti.msFor Trump, Cities Like Washington Are Real Estate in Need of Fixing Up“It’s a natural instinct as a real estate person,” he said in announcing his federal takeover of the capital’s police, despite falling crime.

Even deeper, Thom: The American Revolution was a fraudulent bourgeois revolt orchestrated by wealthy, white men to preserve their economic power, expand slavery, and build a society off the backs of Black excellence without sharing the pie with colonial overlords — NOT a genuine fight for liberty!

Like when I was fired for “budget cuts” after about 1.5 yr of speaking inconvenient truths. They said “this is not performance or personality” AND my contract basically said I was unfirable. Replaced me quickly w/ white males & can’t say names cause they forced me to sign an NDA to feed my family!

Because of unchecked, greedy white industrialization, you have a dystopian HEAT DOME in America. But who suffers? Redlined Black & Brown communities, which largely lack AC, community centers, safe neighborhood pools, and even trees for shade. Disgusting. #EnvironmentalRacism #ClimateJustice
