Pierce County Sheriff Keith Swank is racist and unhinged. Any cop who disrespects the victims of police violence should be immediately terminated. And to have the top cop tweeting this, the person who sets the culture, inexcusable.

@WestLoopTom They had a homicide, 30 something were shot. Bragging about that.

Chicago recorded zero homicides over the long Memorial Day weekend. It’s the first time since 2010. MAGA definitely won’t like this.

@NataniaMarshall Boomers inherited a society where they could, with only a high school diploma, obtain a well-paying, stable manufacturing job.
This reality doesn't exist anymore.
At their core, Boomers are envious, ungrateful, delusional, spiteful little death goblins.

Boomer👴🏻: I owned a house at your age, your generation is just lazy…
1950s: $4,000
1970s: $15,000
1990s: $80,000
2010s: $540,000
2026: $1.05M
My generation isn’t lazy, everything is just expensive.

I prefer the ignorance I had before coming on this platform. This site is full of paid maga who hate their fellow Americans and lie like I've never seen before. Before coming here, I had no idea how despicable and demoralizing maga people were. Now, I find myself stooping to low levels, trying to defend our constitution, laws, healthcare, and the incessant lies about everything. These people live in an alternate reality.

Pete Hegseth: “The single dumbest phrase in military history is ‘Our diversity is our strength.’”
Actually, the single dumbest phrase in military history is “Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.”
Pete said this to West Point’s Class of 2026, which is 21% women and 40% non-white.

Damn Right!

My kid's school asked me to donate supplies.
Paper. Pencils. Hand sanitizer. Tissues.
I pay property taxes.
My state has a $4 billion surplus.
The federal education budget is $238 billion.
And the teacher is buying pencils out of her own paycheck.
And I'm sending in Ziploc bags.
We fund stadiums for billionaires with public money.
We fund schools with bake sales.
And then blame teachers when test scores drop.

@NetworkDirecto1 @EndWokeness Been doing that since the great society was born.
English
@EndWokeness As goofy as he sounds. That is actually the root of the issue. Bored kids that were not raised right, nor have any parental guidance, doing dumb sht. Giving them something to do is not a bad idea.. or you could do nothing and just complain.

This is who is advising Mayor Johnson not to implement a teen curfew. Not joking.

Not only do red states have the highest poverty rates, the worst healthcare, and the poorest education, but they also have the highest murder rates.
Why do they want the entire country to look like this?
States with the highest murder rates:
🔴 Mississippi - 20.5
🔴 Louisiana - 15.2
🔴 Alabama - 13.3
🔴 Missouri - 11.8
🔴 Tennessee - 10.2
🔴 South Carolina - 11.4
🔴 Arkansas - 11.0
🔴 North Carolina - 9.4
🔴 Georgia - 9.6
🔵New Mexico - 8.0

They’re not coming after @SPLCenter DESPITE their work to protect the rights of Black voters. They’re coming after it BECAUSE of it.
Wednesday’s hearing did not fool us. This is a campaign to deny racism is real & civil rights are necessary. We won’t back down.

@EricSpracklen look again , pretty much follows the federal deficit. Deficits help those with assets like homes and stocks.
English
It’s not the mortgage rates that are keeping young people from buying homes, it’s the artificially inflated values that sellers think they can still get.
First time home buyers are saying no.
Until home values come down 30-50% there will continue to be an affordability problem.
Jon Brooks@jonbrooks
Home prices are now 5x annual income. This is the problem.

@CountryFirstRep The biggest set up I have ever seen. Police Officer moves the truncheon so protesters can enter, Police Officer opens and hold the door open to the building, Police Officer leads a group like they are on a site seeing adventure. All on tape if you took the time to look it up

I'm a conservative.
I don't believe in financially compensating insurrectionists who beat police officers at the capitol.
Maybe I'm just old fashioned...🤷♂️

@herosnvrdie69 Sure go to school and get a degree in the arts, urban studies or whatever made up degree consists of . Then complain while working at Starbucks, oh wait- you can become a programmer- until AI.

Only 14 percent of ALL workers in the trades make over 100k a year. The average is closer to 50k a year. Do not let conservatives lie to you. Go to college. Get an education. Do not break your body down for 25 dollars an hour.

“If I can’t afford a home, who the hell can?”
Registered nurse.
No debt.

She did everything right — and STILL got priced out.
That’s not a broken dream. That’s a RIGGED system.

They say “groceries are cheap.”
Where?
Show me the $1.99 milk.
Show me the $2 eggs.
Because in America, cheap groceries are a myth.

More than 7,000 documented non-citizens in Wisconsin will no longer be eligible for food stamps, starting July 1.
That includes refugees, asylees and victims of human trafficking. Advocates worry this will strain food pantries already stretched thin:

Kevin O'Leary says most people waste $15,000 a year on stupid stuff like $5 coffees
"Stop buying coffee for five dollars and fifty cents"
"You go to work and you spend $15 bucks on a sandwich, what are you an idiot. It costs you 99 cents to make a sandwich at home and bring it with you"
"Bring your own water, your own drink or your own coffee mug. You start to add that up every day it's a ton of money"
"Most people starting on their job making their first $60,000 piss away about $15,000 a year"

An American checks her student loans.
She borrowed $49,548.74.
After 120 payments, she’s paid $25,558.36.
Her current balance? $50,121.33.
After PAYING $25k… she now owes MORE than she originally borrowed.
This isn’t aid — it’s legalized USURY.

The NAACP has launched a campaign calling for college athletes and fans to withhold athletic support from public universities in Tennessee, Louisiana, Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, South Carolina, Texas & Georgia due to Black voting representation.
It calls for athletes to "consider all available options under the transfer portal."

NAACP@NAACP
The NAACP is taking a stand. Today, we launch the #OutofBounds campaign, a national call to action for Black athletes, families, fans, and allies. In response to states erasing Black voting representation after the Supreme Court’s Louisiana v. Callais decision, we are demanding accountability. "Out of Bounds is our answer: we are naming the contradiction, and we are calling on Black athletes, families, fans, and consumers to act on it. The same power that built these programs can be redirected." —NAACP President and CEO @DerrickNAACP This is about more than sports. It’s about justice.
