How do white people delude themselves into believing that they can identify anti-Black racism better than a Black person? Enough to refute the validity of a Black person’s claim of anti-Black racism??? Like…how does one get to that level of ability to lie to themselves?

What does he mean by this? Finch has benched Rudy at times situationally and won. He benched D’Lo in the Memphis series. Can he cite examples where benching a player bc of low effort does not work? What informs his philosophy and why does his way work so well?

I’d love to see Julius or Ant benched when they get lazy or don’t follow the game plan consistently. Finch protects them and deserves to be called out for not sitting them out ala D’Lo in the Memphis series.

I saw this video of a Vietnam vet in the fur coat yelling at ICE and thought to myself, "this is missing something," before I realized, "Ah, of course, the Ether instrumental. It's so obvious."

Tough to parse since they were playing with little/no energy before tonight for two straight + team leader Ant/Ju feeble statements. Glad that Joe finally let his anger out. Vibes were for sure off.

ton of factors at play here and trying to boil it down to any one on it’s own will be inherently missing stuff- but it really is hard not to notice that once the victim is an average looking white man all the average looking white men in charge of the news realized they can just tell the truth

One thing that irks me: people keep calling the folks on the streets in Minneapolis protestors. They are not generally there to protest, they are there to observe and document. This is the product of organizing and mutual aid. It is telling that these acts of citizenship are seen as protest!

The newest video shows very clearly that they attacked him for coming to an aid of a woman that the agents pushed, and then executed him while he was immobilized. Everything the government has said, like with Good, has been a complete lie.

Our reporting has found that ICE sent 600 immigrant kids to detention in federal shelters in 2025.

A 17-year-old was detained at a traffic stop because officers couldn’t make contact with his dad, who is deaf.

Another kid ended up in a shelter after making a wrong turn:

US citizen says ICE removed him from his Minnesota home in his underwear after warrantless search Federal immigration agents have detained a U.S. citizen in Minnesota at gunpoint without a warrant. That's according to ChongLy β€œScott” Thao, who says agents forced open his door, entered with guns drawn and led him outside in his underwear in freezing conditions.

Federal immigration agents forced open a door and detained a U.S. citizen in his Minnesota home at gunpoint without a warrant, then led him out onto the streets in his underwear in subfreezing conditions, according to his family and videos reviewed by The Associated Press.

ICE shot a Latino on the leg in Minneapolis today. It’s despicable. Being Latino is not a crime. The color of your skin is not a crime. Being in this country is not a crime. Our entire community is in complete & utter pain. Sending the family and our community a ton of love tonight.

the horror of this is compounded by the fact that the whipple building sits on the same military fort where 1600+ Dakota, mostly women and children were held in a concentration camp in 1863, where over 300 died
