I'm getting real tired of seeing Tennessee Holler getting reskeeted into my feed, and they need to knock it off with the content thievery

You can just share my video from me instead of sharing a screen recording of my video from a content farm account that isn’t on the scene btw.

Nor can we trust ICE to determine citizenship. You can't deport a citizen, only traffic them.

You don't have to judge Columbus by the standards of today. His tenure as governor of Hispaniola was so horrific that he was dragged back to Spain in chains to answer for his many crimes.

Plus he never set foot on any land that would ever be a part of the United States of America.

Simple way to avoid car companies bricking your vehicle by installing a forced software update: make sure your vehicle is a bicycle.

The Invention of Christopher Columbus, American Hero How the founding fathers turned Christopher Columbus, a mediocre Italian sailor and mass murderer, into a historical icon.

There are lots of great reasons not to celebrate Christopher Columbus. Many moons ago in @thenation.com I wrote about one of the big ones: that the founding legend around Columbus was fabricated out of whole cloth in the 1790s to suit the needs of American politics of the moment.

It’s the 150th anniversary of the birth of Aleister Crowley, the man who – among *many* other things – once put an acrostic in an β€œapparently innocuous book of devotional verse” which spelt out β€˜The Virgin Mary I desire but arseholes set my prick on fire’ www.weiserantiquarian.com/pages/books/...

He was wrongfully imprisoned for 43 years. Moments after being released, ICE took him Subramanyam β€œSubu” Vedam now faces deportation.

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation

Depraved.

TRANSCRIPT OF CARTOON

This cartoon has four panels.

PANEL 1

A car and a pickup truck are pulled over on the side of an overpass. There’s an exit ramp with white and green stripes going across it, which in some cities indicates pedestrian and bicyclist crossings. The driver of the car, a woman in an orange top, is walking towards the driver of theΒ pickup, who has gotten out of the truck. He's wearing a blue cap and a red tshirt.

WOMAN: Hey there. I see you're pulled over. You need me to call for help?MAN: Thanks. I'm having the worst day ever!

PANEL 2

A closer shot of the truck driver as he rants. His face is framed by two yellow caution signs with bicycle icons and arrows pointing to the green and white crosswalk lines. The concerned woman is behind him.

MAN: I was just driving along and bam! A bike came out of nowhere! No chance for me to see it coming! Stupid bike riders think they own the road!

PANEL 3

Looking worried, the man points to a dent on his truck's front grill.Β 

MAN: I got a big truck so I'd be safe on the road β€” and see what happens? Just look at this ding on my truck!

PANEL 4

From the ground in front of the truck, a hand comes up, forefinger raised to get attention. The woman is shocked; the man is annoyed.

BIKER (weak shaky voice):Β Sorry to interrupt but could you call me an ambulance?MAN: Hey! It's not all about you!

CHICKEN FAT WATCH

Chicken fat is obsolete cartoonists' lingo for unimportant but amusing details in the art.

PANEL 2: A highway sign says "Highway to Heck." The font is called "Highway Gothic."(β€œHighway to heck” is a reference to a Foxtrot comic. β€œSome songs just weren’t made for Muzak.” β€œSome ears weren’t, either.”)

PANEL 3: The logo on the front of the truck says "Dodge SLAM."

In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child.

She screams, β€œI’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck.

This is not about immigration enforcement.

It's about terrorizing Americans.

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

Extremely funny that people think this is now a Pritzker hate account when all we've been doing is documenting the same police violence we've been documenting well before this ICE surge

With the holidays upon us, don't give to Salvation Army. Not even change. It's a scumbag "charity" run by anti-gay zealots.

Habitat for Humanity is great. Your local Food Bank is great.

So many "charities" are for-profit scams. Use Charity Navigator to vet them. www.charitynavigator.org

George was just trying to get to work.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.
