We have successfully gotten past our initial goal of $500 dollars and it has only been the 2nd day!
We are raising our goal to $800, but we have a sneaking suspicion we will have to raise it higher soon!

Proof that the media is complicit is the double standard you see with how things are reported.
The media wanted Trump back because media heads are Republicans and sympathetic to his cause and because he's good for business because he's a spectacle.

The entire 2016 campaign was defined by the media's outrage over Hillary's use of a private email server. In 2026, a high ranking government official's use of an encrypted app to avoid scrutiny as he sends ICE goons around the nation is a one day story. YOUR MAINSTREAM MEDIA 🙃

As Coates said, if Obama could be president, the only consolation for them was to decide that *anyone* could be president. It must have made them sick every day for 8 years

Southerners' migrant north to build a new life in Harlem. But news of deaths back home shatters everything. Grief follows them north, taking the form of a Black Dog spirit stalking the streets.
Why is it hunting them, and who will survive it?

What do you mean that was the season finale? I got way more questions than answers.
Seasons need to be longer than 8 episodes. Especially from a company as old as MGM and with as much financial backing as Prime Video.

NEW: Abigail Spanberger this afternoon ordered that all state agencies leave ICE's 287(g) program.
This means that the state police (and some other agencies) will no longer be empowered to detain and arrest people for ICE.
Big, big move by the governor within weeks of coming into office.

Abigail Spanberger left the 287(g) program, which empowered state law enforcement to detain immigrants. Will Democrats also bar local police and sheriffs from the program?
