A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

I'm feeling the need to repost this one... again.
The biggest divide in America today is not between “right” and “left,” or between Republicans and Democrats.

It’s between democracy and oligarchy.

The old labels — “right” and “left” — prevent most people from noticing they’re getting the shaft.

Know the truth.

This is a total shit-show.
U.S. defense officials are saying 1,500 active-duty soldiers are on standby in Alaska for possible deployment to Minneapolis. That’s on top of the 3,000+ ICE agents already in the area.

We don’t really believe this is about undocumented immigrant crime in Minneapolis, do we?

"Once again, the federal government is telling us that what we saw with our own damn eyes is wrong. But this isn’t the usual lie—that all immigrants are criminals, or that melanin leads to blue city violence. This is a new one."

This person, my son, earned a Pulitzer Prize. If he gave it to me, it would still be his. I am a rational person who fully realizes that i did not earn a Pulitzer Prize.
