If you’ve never read Dr. King’s Letter from a Birmingham Jail, I encourage you to. It’s all right here, and a good reminder they called him an extremist at the time for encouraging peaceful sit-ins, marches and freedom rides.

That HR swing has some serious pop.

@SpeakWithDeeDee @stockmom Tell us without telling us… every time

Please bear with me as this is going to be a long one. I am fucking pissed! As a born-and-raised New Yorker who was here on that beautiful, clear September morning in 2001, this garbage from Candace Owens hits like a punch to the gut all over again. Our lives war forever changed and we have never forgotten what al-Qaeda did to our country. That beautiful September morning turned into clouds of gray that would hang over our city and our entire country for years to come. Pretty much everyone in New York knew someone who died in the World Trade Center. Neighbors, friends, coworkers, family, nearly 3,000 lives ripped away in an instant, with over 2,700 of those right here in the city from the towers alone. My husband was NYPD at the time, a first responder who ran toward the chaos like so many others did. He lost brothers, sister's, good men and women, heroes, who never came home. He's never been the same, and all I can do as his wife, is pray for his continued health. He's buried countless brothers to cancer and other 9/11 related diseases. The 9/11 attack was over in one day, but it still kills today! The Port Authority Police Department suffered the single biggest loss of law enforcement in American history that day. 37 officers killed while trying to save lives in those buildings. That's why he transferred to the Port Authority later, to honor them, to keep carrying the torch for the ones who didn't make it back. And now, this woman has the audacity to claim Netanyahu and "the Jews" orchestrated it all? Absolute vile lies. This is a tired, debunked antisemitic conspiracy theory that's been proven false a thousand times! Yet here is Candace Owens grifting on it. al-Qaeda did this, led by Osama bin Laden. Not Israel. Not some shadow conspiracy. This is just a grift, plain and simple. Her post is engineered to provoke your rage, to bait you into replying in anger, reposting it in fury, or even just bookmarking it so you come back later seething. Every single engagement, your likes, quotes, replies, views, puts money in this lunatic's pocket through algorithms, ads, subscriptions, whatever grift machine she's running now. It's disgusting. It's vile. She's exploiting real pain, real loss, real trauma that people like my husband still carry 25 years later, all for clicks and cash. I too fell for it. I was enraged when I read her post. I typed out an angry reply and hit send and then it hit me... what the hell am I doing? Why am I giving this traitor to her country, an ounce of my emotion? Why am I letting her take up space in my head? The simple answer, it's hard not to when you've lived through such a tragedy. You push down the sadness. It eventually gets replaced with rage and eventually your emotions turn into acceptance. This post was designed to completely destroy the cycle of grieving. It was designed to bring back every single emotion that you experienced 25 years. I almost fell for it. Shame on you @RealCandaceO. You are truly a vile human being profiting off the graves of nearly 3,000 innocents and the heroes who ran in to save them. We New Yorkers remember. We know the truth and we see right through this garbage. NEVER FORGET 🇺🇸

Just put this on Coach Mick’s Hall of Fame application.

Cannot tell you how many people have texted me the same thing after the last two days. “How the hell did Ohio State ever lose a game?”

Browns gonna do it now.

Buckeyes.

But I’m sure Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone.

Browns gotta be the only franchise in sports where players announce they are leaving before they even figure out where they are going.

Ah this hire makes a ton of sense now that we know he can hang with the “big brains” of Andrew Berry, Jimmy Haslam and his son in law.

Any real list would have #8 at #1 and #4 at #2. The rest are whatever.

Fairly certain that should get you banned from the sport.

@drjamesbjoyce Hillary?

🚨 Image analysis: Image 1: Bill and uh… woah🫨 Image 2: Whaaaaat is that?😯 Image 3: wwWTF’s THAT FKN THING!?!?!👀

Had the details front, but the outcome was largely what I predicted two weeks ago…

Don’t forget the gifted #1 pick / Cooper Flagg they got out of doing it.

Which teams did he make better? Thunder. Rockets. Anyone else?

The Cavs incoming Core 4… - Mitchell - Harden - LeBron - AD

This is gonna look real ugly when they get AD instead of the Greek Freak.

Trying as hard as I possibly can to imagine James Harden as a happy contributor in Cleveland. Someone will have to help me get there.

Instead they will trade Mobley for Anthony Davis. And not prosper.

Refuse to believe Koby Altman and Mike Gansey would be this insane.
