It was transforming the biggest NFL stage in the world into a sugar cane plantation that did it for me.
Like, the multiple layers of turning an American icon into a plantation and highlighting the history of exploitation of Black and Brown bodies by the NFL and American colonialism simultaneously?

The funny thing about that show? Not a word of it was in English, but it was one of the more patriotic halftime shows I’ve seen.
“The only thing more powerful than hate is love”
“Together, we are America”

They are saying Kid Rock handed his Grammy to lil’ Kyle Rittenhouse during the halftime show.
(Not true. Kid Rock has never won a Grammy).

I just saw the Epstein Russia visas and trips on a Substack. Sheesh! His visas specified he was visiting Intelligence there. Every year for decades. Trump, Putin, Epstein were absolutely allied.
This regime is treasonous.

..:the Putin/Russia ties are leading me to believe espionage is all intermingled with the sex trafficking. A literal viper’s nest. And, like you, I’m a conspiracy skeptic, but every new revelation is all too dirty and coincidental to ignore.

No list of offenders. And only one arrest, the woman involved. All of this happened while Donald Trump was president. You don’t have to believe in conspiracies to believe the public still hasn’t gotten straight answers. 3/3

Reports of the government using boxes to mimic a body. A missing minute from jail camera footage. Cameras that “weren’t working.” A delay in releasing documents. Millions of pages that still haven’t been made public. 2/3

I’m not a conspiracy theorist. But when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein, there are a lot of things that remain objectively strange. A DOJ draft press release dated the day before his death, with the final version adding the phrase “of an apparent suicide.” 1/3

It's important for Dems to try to run *everywhere* in 2026, because this election is shaping up to the be the kind of environment where Rs might be defeated in some unsuspecting - even shocking - places.

„Trump's Justice Department is in possession of thousands of videos of children being graped by wealthy and powerful men.
Those men WERE being blackmailed by Epstein. But by not releasing their names, these men must now be loyal to Trump to protect their identities.“

This is reminiscent of the Trump BonWit Teller frieze debacle in NYC. He destroys architectural treasures in favor of gaudy monstrosities. He is and always has been such a vindictive, petty, utterly gauche philistine.

"Historically, when we look back at the Epstein scandal, it's going to be bigger than Watergate, and bigger than Iran-Contra...it's longer in time, and involved multiple administrations, and that's why we have to get to the bottom of it."

New Trump Administration order targets Texas park — what to know
The signs are seemingly uncontroversial, reports say.
They're removing any informational signs from Big Bend National Park that are in Spanish & English or talk about cooperation with Mexico.
They want to ensure Spanish-speakers can't learn about nature at a national park on the US/Mexico border.
One originally conceived as a Peace Park with Mexico.

Combat authoritarianism, totalitarianism, illiberal ideology, genocide and ecocide.
Support freedom for everyone, equality, liberal values, democracy & liberal rule-based world order.
Revisionist dictatorships are a threat to all of us - we must resist.
