The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

I said as much to some comrades a couple of days ago who were lamenting that he was going to the White House. He went to buy some time for what will be an eventual invasion of NYC by the fascist.

Way back when, mayor Pete's reform-minded chief of police, Daryl Boykins, recorded some of his officers making vile racist statements. So Buttigieg fired... the police chief.🤡
Boykins was the 1st Black police chief in city history, and was building trust with Black folk.
But it gets worse...

They let this man — who ran for president on the idea that being mayor was enough because also he was gay — adopt Black children, who are going to need so much therapy as adults if they’re being raised listening to this kind of bullshit
Speaking at a Texas Tribune Festival on Friday, former U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg criticized the Democratic Party for failing to reach everyday Americans, arguing that it “got sucked in” to a conversation about identity. #TribFest25

Think of your favorite celebrity, whether they’re an actor, musician, athlete, whatever.
They’re probably pretty well-off, financially. But they are still closer to auctioning off their possessions to cover medical bills than they are to being a billionaire.

Thomas Pritzker was named by Virginia Giuffre a couple years back, and now he's in this new trove of emails. He still sits on several prominent Chicago-based corporate, nonprofit, NGO, and university boards, including a role as one of UChicago's trustees. Those affiliations should be severed.

so glad the child sexual abuse panic was squarely pointed at folks like me by the people actually doing it & the public was like “yeah, seems right—freaks did it. not the men with all the money & fighting to keep child marriage legal, the women that are legal to kill in 30 states if you’re nervous.”
What a great day for finding out that a lot of things people thought were conspiracies are actually backed up by emails that are like hey pedo, let us pedo together in pedoland on the second day of the pedo month

Cannot be stressed enough how unbelievably terribly all the news outlets, "progressive" or not, have been blowing the Epstein story.
Both parties have massive criminal exposure, top donors to both are at the very least are extremely close to child rape, and two presidents (at least) are involved.

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.
