Aditya 🇮🇳💙☮️ | Abolish ICE

Nothing in the history of the world could be more stupid than surviving trump somehow & then giving him the keys again & nothing you can ever say will change the fact that you should be shamed for eternity & this includes all eligible voters who did not vote for Kamala Harris. So just cut the shit.

1. It was not an accident.
2. It was not a staffer.
3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia.
4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares.
5. His base agrees with him.
6. He will do it again.
7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

If you're not able to watch the Super Bowl for any reason, just open any MAGA twitter account to get live commentary and updates. They'll all be watching every moment of it while commenting how much they hate it 😂

I can't stand this guy. I'm ashamed that he's from my college 🤢

MAGA logic -

"The video that Trump posted was not racist!"

After they came to know the staffer posted it -

"That racist staffer should get fired!"

#HealingHearts

"But you survived!" Yes I did, and I grew in ways I could not have anticipated.

But nothing abuse survivors go through is ever okay.

Ever.

We must be as committed to preserving our democracy as they are to destroying it. AS COMMITTED.
Are you calling your reps in Congress? Are you prepared for a 3-week general strike? Are you?

This is overt racism. Full stop. There’s no ‘misinterpretation’ and no excuse. This is who he is, who he’s always been, and why he should never be anywhere near power again. And there’s a reason the tapes from The Apprentice have never been released.

Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

In this undated photo, a prison is tied to the whipping post on the grounds of the Old Sussex County Courthouse in Georgetown, Del., awaiting his sentenced to be meted out. The whipping post was the last to be removed from public display in the state.

Delaware was the last state to abolish whipping as a criminal punishment. The last official whipping was in 1952, but the “whipping post” remained a legal penalty for crimes until removed from state law in 1972. The last whipping post in Delaware was removed from public display in 2020. /end

Newspaper clipping describing the whipping of an inmate at New Castle County Workhouse in Delaware.

Although public whippings were associated with the Southern convict leasing system, Delaware continued this cruel practice well into the 20th century. Accounts of the lashes were featured in the press, and photographs of the whippings were widely available for sale in shops into the 1960s. /5

An apparatus similar to this – with pillory on top and whipping post below – was used to give the public a clear view of the brutality being inflicted on prisoners. This particular whipping post and pillory was located in New County Castle, Del. Photo credit: Maryland Center for History and Culture.

After the Civil War, the public whipping of prisoners functioned as a highly orchestrated theatrical performance that drew large crowds, including women and children. Many of the victims were Black, which reinforced white supremacy intertwined with themes of power, sexuality and humiliation. /4

In the American South, enslaved people were used to satisfy this fetish. Public whippings of partially undressed or naked enslaved people, particularly women, allowed onlookers to witness violence against the Black body as a perverse entertainment that satisfied a form of forbidden desire. /3

In 19th-century pornography, whipping was a pervasive theme, accounting for an estimated 50% of the pornographic material produced at the time. Often referred to as “le vice Anglais,” this fetishized form of whipping was an obsession fueled by literature, photography and specialized brothels. /2

The infamous photo of "Whipped Peter" who was brutalized by an overseer who poured salt in the wounds. The photo shows the extreme scarring on his back.

Whipping was a prevalent form of punishment and control of enslaved people. However, it wasn’t just about discipline. It also served as public pornography that reinforced white dominance and dehumanized enslaved people for sadistic, voyeuristic pleasure. /1

This is the reality and truth. The goal is to abolish freedom of speech, the free press, the Constitution and democracy, and to run the country as Putin and other authoritarian governments are run...with a regime that penalizes and punishes those who speak up.

First Lady Face-Off: Michelle Obama 2020 Netflix Doc Surges On ‘Melania’ Opening Weekend Michelle Obama's documentary Becoming, on Netflix, attracted a surge in interest as Melania Trump's own documentary opened in theaters.

"Interestingly, the jump seems to have began right as Melania debuted in theaters across the country." 😆😆😆

Guys, we know it's not a coincidence! 😆

It's at #4, and is back to being classified as a Documentary!

Oh - there's no Face-Off 😉

NJ11 Tomorrow is the election to fill Governor Sherrill's seat! Get out and vote for Zach Beecher!

Last chance to vote!

Hear me out democratic lawmakers including @captmarkkelly.bsky.social & @gallego.senate.gov:
Steve Bannon & the GOP are threatening to surround voting places this Nov for midterms to intimidate voters. (Illegal I might add).
Defund ICE until AT LEAST after the elections.

In ICE’s War, the Public Is Winning After stockpiling 35,000 weapons in Minneapolis, ICE suddenly withdraws

There is a list of the weapons stockpile in this article. It is outrageous! They were/are prepared for a literal war on Americans!

Adam Kinzinger (@adamkinzinger) Trump just said Republicans should “take over the voting and nationalize it.” That’s authoritarianism, full stop. The silence from elected Republicans is cowardice—and it’s dangerous heading into Nove...

#47: "The GOP should take over the voting and nationalize it."

This regime is attempting to remove our right to vote! This is what an authoritarian tyrant does... guaranteeing lifelong rule and power.

THE SAVE ACT DOESN’T “SAVE” ANYTHING. This bill will make it harder to vote for millions of first time voters, voters of color, trans voters and lower income families who already face challenges in making their voices heard. We cannot let that happen.

#ProudBlue The SAVE Act is back - if passed, it will prevent 21 million Americans who don't have a passport or a birth certificate easily available from registering to vote.

Call! 202-221-2131 Make sure your Senators know preventing eligible voters from exercising their rights is NOT acceptable!

OMG- I was thinking about them while washing the dishes last night and thinking about a movie about them being made...who would play the Loves'? And look, here they are today in your posting!!! "Two Loves"

Under the Republican trifecta, accountability is nowhere to be found.

Yet as Pete says, the American people have the final say. People must “take over” the election before the Mad King does. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Exactly. All who didn't vote for Harris including the ones who didn't vote at all.

Fuck EVERYONE who didn’t vote for Harris. All of you have blood on your hands.
