Slavery’s brutal reality shocked Northerners before the Civil War − and is being whitewashed today by the White House
Abolitionists used hard facts to counter pro-slavery propaganda, forcing indifferent Americans to face ugly realities.
The Trump administration is reviewing Smithsonian exhibits on slavery, reportedly flagging materials like "The Scourged Back" − a powerful 1863 photograph of a formerly enslaved man's scarred back − for removal from public museums and national parks. buff.ly/q6JYITE

Why would Jeffrey Epstein kill himself in jail if he had this much leverage of the one person who could give him a full pardon?

every epstein email is some creep complaining about MeToo and then being like “oh before i forget, any advice on how to use my position of authority to force women into sleeping with me?”

The Republican Attack on Public Education
Dismantling the Department of Education and pouring taxpayer dollars into private schools.
“Under the guise of getting the federal government out of education and parental rights, Trump’s plan . . . creates needless opportunities for the further enrichment of the wealthy, and drastically cuts support for public education.”

John Kerrigan · No Illusions: Syntax of Slavery
Slavery was accepted across most of the early modern world. No one wanted to be a slave, except when the alternative was...
‘Liverpool went from having a single slave ship in 1709 to more than a hundred six decades later. By 1795 it controlled almost half of the European slave trade.’

The thing is that he charmed millions to vote for him. He knew how to charm them with racism and violence against others. Cruelty.

The Firewall Against Nick Fuentes Is Crumbling
The white-supremacist influencer is entering the MAGA mainstream.
America has no idea what's about to hit them. "Young Republicans" are fully steeped in neo-Nazi edge lord talking points. Fuentes is the present and future of the GOP. After Trump, this is the new form of MAGA. The establishment isn't built for this fight.

Eswatini is quite nice. It could’ve been worse, like that prison in El Salvador.
If I were him I’d try to find a place closer to Mozambique and enjoy warmer temperatures.

Family pets are being left behind at Southern California shelters as their families face deportation. At Carsom Animal Care Center, dogs like Bruce and Coco are quiet, confused, and up for adoption. Shelter staff say they've seen emotional goodbyes as families forced to leave the U.S.

I’d say that @stephencolbert.bsky.social is (with the lone exception of @maddow.msnbc.com) the most brilliant, humane person I’ve encountered in broadcasting. His mind works faster than anyone else’s at a level of sophistication that is unmatchable. Genuinely a generational talent.

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

Back from the dead...and really not happy about what is happening today.
As I once incorrectly said “History Doesn't Repeat Itself, but It Often Rhymes”.
Nope. We have seen this before...
