“CoreCivic has repeatedly shown that it is incapable of running a humane facility. Now, the company flouts city approval to move forward with an ICE center based on false promises.”

In filings, the city argued the company previously ran an “absolute hell hole”

To the “I voted for this” crowd:

You voted for the guy who gutted the National Weather Service. Now we’ve got dead families and missing kids in Texas, because storm warnings didn’t go out in time. And he gutted FEMA so they can’t properly respond to disasters.

That’s what you voted for?

My deepest sympathies to our neighbors in Texas. More than 30 confirmed deaths due to flooding from the last report I saw.

The fact that Republicans in Texas are blaming the weather service *that they defunded* shows the height of their cruelty and hypocrisy.

Across the Hill Country of central Texas today, rescue workers are urgently searching for the missing after a wall of water rushed through an area known as "Flash Flood Alley" in the early morning hours of July 4th.

So Texas officials are blaming the National Weather Service for the lack of warning and resulting death toll from the flooding and not the massive cuts from the government to the National Weather Service that impacted their ability to give more advanced and detailed warning.

WATCH: “The @nytimes.com was exposed for trying to manufacture a scandal about @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social — while in the process revealing a scandal about The NYT.”

This is the correct take. Sadly it will likely only be folks on TikTok who point it out😕

On July 5, 1852, Frederick Douglass asked a question that still echoes: “What to the slave is the Fourth of July?” He exposed the deep hypocrisy of celebrating freedom in a nation built on bondage.

173 years later, that question still demands an answer.

“There’s a published article out there …”? What does ‘out there’ mean? He lied to gain prominence. He lied to get his job. And he lies all the time even after getting the job 🤦‍♂️

Three years ago today, the community of Highland Park was shattered by gun violence.

To those in Highland Park, our state continues to grieve and heal with you.

We’ll never forget those we’ve lost — we owe it to the victims and survivors to end this uniquely American epidemic.

This Fourth of July, I am taking a moment to reflect. Things are hard right now. They are probably going to get worse before they get better.

But I love our country — and when you love something, you fight for it. Together, we will continue to fight for the ideals of our nation.

so let me get this straight—the NYT accepted hacked information given to them by a substack white supremacist to be used against a mayoral candidate?

Super interesting that none of the safeguards I’ve grown up hearing about that were apparently in place to protect the public from a tyrannical government are being employed in the moment of the uprising of a tyrannical government.

I truly hope this puts a definitive end to the perpetual insistence by Democrats that they can compromise with Republicans. You can't. These people are extreme, depraved, and shameless. They just stripped healthcare from 17 million people to give themselves a tax cut.

Black women are the most educated demographic in America.

More degrees per capita than any other group, including white men and white women.

And still, they’re among the most underpaid.

More educated, less paid. Overqualified, underestimated, and undervalued. Every time.
