Justice Dept. Asks for 1-Day Sentence for Ex-Officer Convicted in Breonna Taylor Raid

They mean to be as insulting to Black people, as dismissive of our lives, as resistance to our status as full citizens in this country as they can be.

There is no common ground to be had at the expense of our sisters & daughters’ lives and our dignity as a people.

Kirsty died over two decades before that thick prick wrote this.

Imagine voting for this judgemental and incompetent tit.

"every successful protest in the history of the world" is simply what you said.

It may be true of many protests, but it's certainly not universal - indeed many things required stronger tactics due to the entrenched forces in power.

Your sentiment is of course true, but the final paragraph is totally off.

Massive cuts to warning and response teams impact every level of flooding - the impact would without any doubt have been lessened.

Just received news that 27 people have been arrested in Parliament Square under the Terrorism Act 2000 for holding signs saying "I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action".
This is real police state behaviour.

I've tuned the settings up for you just so I can see it works - it does for guardian for example as they post a lot.

His track record speaks for itself. While we continue to resist, we should take comfort in that he is deeply incompetent, not very bright & his policies are hurting even his most devoted supporters. Let's not get in the way of his inevitable self-destruction.

This is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position.

Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you'll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include "DEI medal."

If you live in NC, call every Republican politician you know. Call every farmer you know and ask them to do the same

When money walks , voters talk. Make sure they know this effects everyone in their town and state
