WE ARE UNDER-REACTING‼️ If you needed any more proof that the Voting Rights Act is still necessary, just look at what’s happening right now: red states rushing to wipe out Black representation the second SCOTUS gutted it. What went down this week is going to have devastating consequences. Here’s the uncomfortable truth: a lot of white Americans are not having the conversations they need to be having with each other. In Black communities, these conversations are constant. They are not optional. They are passed down. They’re how we survive. If you want to help, start by listening to Black voices on this issue and amplifying them. And especially if you’re white, use your voice too. Join us. Call it what it is: racism. 🧵

Roger Stone blocked me. I never interacted with him 🤣

The World Press Freedom Index dropped this week and America did NOT get a good score.

Riley Gaines and Libs of TikTok are complaining about medical bills. David French says adopting a Black child opened his eyes to systemic racism. Laid-off TPUSA employees say workers need stronger protections. Conservatism is the rejection of empathy for others. Once an issue affects them personally, they adopt the progressive position.

This is how Reconstruction ended and Jim Crow began last time

Blurred out the white faces but showed the black face. Blurred out the scream for help and the racial slurs because the attackers were white. The attack did not happen because he was autistic; it happened because he was black. Those white kids were pulling his black hair.

NEW: Senate Armed Services Chairman Roger Wicker and House Armed Services Chairman Mike Rogers, both Republicans, release statement on Trump’s decision to withdraw US troops from Germany: “We are very concerned by the decision to withdraw a U.S. brigade from Germany. Germany has stepped up in response to President Trump’s call for greater burden sharing, significantly increasing defense spending and providing seamless access, basing, and overflight for U.S. forces in support of Operation Epic Fury. The reality remains even as allies move toward spending 5% of GDP on defense, translating that investment into the military capability needed to assume primary responsibility for conventional deterrence will take time. Prematurely reducing America’s forward presence in Europe before those capabilities are fully realized risks undermining deterrence and sending the wrong signal to Vladimir Putin. Rather than withdrawing forces from the continent altogether, it is in the US interest to maintain a strong deterrent in Europe by moving these 5,000 US forces to the east. Those allies there have made substantial investments to host U.S. troops, reducing costs for the U.S. taxpayer while strengthening NATO’s front line to help deter a far more costly conflict from ever beginning. Finally, any significant change to U.S. force posture in Europe warrants a deliberate review process and close coordination with Congress and our allies. We expect the Department to engage with its oversight committees in the days and weeks ahead on this decision and its implications for U.S. deterrence and transatlantic security.”

THESE ARE THE FACTS‼️💯

You're paying $8 for gas but thank god those seven trans athletes can no longer play sports and you can say "r*tard" again!

This should have been the end of it. Don't blame Democrats. Mitch McConnell and Kevin McCarthy could have ended this. They chose not to.

A Black mother took her babies to a public playground on a Sunday afternoon to play with bubbles and throw a football... and two white women called the police on her because they wanted to let their dogs run free, using the police as a weapon against black people

Lock her behind up and mandatory substance abuse and anger management

🚨 Woman nearly kills young boy on bike trying to run him over, then gets released the next day. A 56-year-old woman in Spokane drove onto the sidewalk chasing a terrified child on his bike, blasting her horn and trying to run him over all after reportedly trying to break into a home moments earlier. She was arrested for DUI, criminal trespass, and attempted assault. The charges? Dropped. She was released the next day. Here's the court document showing the state declined to file charges in superior court. This is why I always say: the system is failing our kids. A child nearly killed and the woman who tried to murder him walks free? How many more kids have to be targeted before we start locking these monsters up? What do you think should happen to her?

I do not understand what billionaires think the final outcome of all this is. If nobody has a living wage, they cannot buy your products, pay for your services, or rent the properties being owned and hoarded. At that point, does the whole thing not just collapse?

Republicans can discriminate against Black voters because they mostly vote Democratic so they just say "it's political, not racial." Courtesy of the Roberts Court. However, Democrats cannot create districts that are Democratic AND Black because that is unconstitutional and racist. Courtesy of the Roberts Court this week. My solution is Democrats should refer to Black Democrats as Historically Abandonned Republicans and therefore they simply represent a key Democratic political swing group.

#USA - Police brutally attacked and used violence against high school students protesting ICE.

I’m sorry, but I’m not gonna be nicer about this. Neocon boomers are mortgaging my generations future by amassing trillions in debt, turning America into a pariah on the global stage, and getting our troops killed for another failing war. I have to watch these neocons lie about the state of this war on TV every single day. Then, the moment I push back and assertively ask, “hey, what’s the actual goal here?” I have a legion of neocon boomers telling me I should know my place. Or I should wait my turn to talk with the grown ups. Fuck that, genuinely. I’m not claiming to have all of the answers or be all knowing. But young people deserve a seat at the table to fight for our interests as well. 95% of media is made up of boomers in suits who created these problems, and being nicer isn’t going to fix them.

Can someone let the AP know that violating court orders is not a sign of "executive power. " It is a sign of contempt, lawlessness and authoritarianism.

Right now, Americans need to make peace with the fact that the news will continue to be bad. We are going to witness an ever more desperate and violent descent into the depths of the malevolence that broken human beings are capable of. These people are going to wake up every day, as in this one, singularly driven to damage as many people as possible as quickly as they can, and we should prepare ourselves by not being pulled into disbelief as they do. We cannot waste a single second being shocked by their depravity, hoping they will tire of violence, or expecting them to be anything other than who they have shown us they are. We need to stop being surprised by Republicans’ inhumanity and to go about the work of being human. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/stop-being-s…

Clarence Thomas he hates Black people. if it’s up to him to put back people back into Jim Crow and slavery, he would vote for it.
