I mean hear me out White people, close your eyes and imagine a world that tells you, no matter how qualified, experienced or leader focused you are. People won't vote for you because you are white...

This is what you tell Black people all the time as an excuse for why "people won't vote for them."

You fail to hear us when we warn you about a candidate's character, then lament when they prove we are right about them. You tell us in our face you love the fire of Miss Crockett, yet in the same breath say "well Texas will only elect a White Christian male democrat...sigh.

Seriously white people if you’re not willing to accept the words in this thread we are never EVER getting out of this…no matter who you try to blame.

“We Can’t Help You”….

Around 49% of COVID infections are asymptomatic and carry no symptoms but did you know, that albeit less likely, you can still get long covid or a blood clot, days, weeks, months or even a year after this seemingly harmless infection. Most who have long covid had only seemingly ‘mild’ symptoms 🧵

If I were Kamala Harris I would be a mountain sized thorn in Trump's side

Ya know like he did when we elected Joe Biden

Police told Kelly Wilkinson to ‘cool off’ and give estranged husband ‘a break’ days before he burned her to death, inquest hears Wilkinson was turned away by police while seeking help four days before she was murdered, Queensland coroner’s court told

Kelly Wilkinson was being abused by her husband.

She tried to go to the police.

They told her to “cool off”.

They suggested she give her husband a “break”.

They accused her of cop shopping.

Her husband stabbed her over 20 times and set her on fire.

The cops were complicit in her murder:

Haitian man dies in US immigration custody with untreated toothache, brother says A Haitian man confined at an Arizona immigration detention center for months after the denial of his asylum application has died in the hospital

Emmanuel Damas, another individual killed in ICE custody.

He had a toothache. They ignored it. He died of spesis. Read that again.

Why do we need to fund this murderous agency?

This is how you write a goddamn headline.

Kelly: "You could pick a random group of people off the street tonight here in DC and they could probably do a better job than our government is doing right now. They don't have a goal, there's no strategic plan. And what this is likely to lead to is, again, a long war with a lot of dead Americans."

every word out of her mouth is a blatant lie, this is one of the most corrupted govt agencies

NOEM: Our federal detention centers are held to the highest standards in comparison to other detaining facilities

McBATH: Did you just hear me? He has to crawl through mold and feces and bodily fluids just to take a shower. This is absolute lunacy and you know it.

NOPE

Sadly mine are 😭

At least yours aren't election denying maga #jelly

[TW: graphic fracture, sound of breaking bone]

Sen Tim Sheehy (R-Montana) badly breaking the arm of a Marine veteran protesting the war Iran.

AOC: If people like Kristi Noem, Kash Patel, and Pam Bondi violate the law, there are supposed to be consequences. These are people who call themselves law enforcement officers. The message they’re sending is that they can cover up for pedophiles and street executions. That cannot be acceptable.

Collapse is real

McGovern: How the hell is this America first? You guys broke your top campaign promise. Good luck with that. I hope the defense contractor money was worth it. Shame on you all. The mask is off. You're all just a bunch of pathetic Neocon Warmongers.

I know that the people who need to read this aren’t here, but here goes:

Rules of engagement aren’t for the enemy. They’re for you. They’re for your soldiers when they’re captured or wounded. They’re for your civilians when they’re in range of the enemy. They’re for your allies, to reassure.

Horrifying. Jesus Lord in heaven.

Screenshot of an X post by Senator Tom Cotton saying Iran has been an imminent threat to the United States for 47 years and that the president was right to act. Below is a Fox News segment with Cotton speaking while footage labeled “U.S. Central Command – Unclassified” shows a strike.

“Imminent.” You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Ted Lieu to Kristi Noem: “I just showed you a video with ICE officers at a school drop-off location — your refusal to commit to stopping these operations at or near schools & drop-off locations is why you're failing — so I'm going to show you this video that encapsulates why you're failing”

The US is rapidly burning through its stockpile of Patriot (PAC2/PAC-3) missiles by using the $4 million missiles to shoot down $20,000 Iranian drones or $50,000 Iranian missiles. Up to 11 Patriots have been fired at a single incoming target.

Arms suppliers love this war.

LIEU: Did Amalia commit a crime?

NOEM: She did not. She's with her family

LIEU: The reason she's with her family is because she almost died in ICE detention until folks brought a lawsuit forcing her release
