I don’t think we should allow the secret police to round people up and sort them by race
More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...

She’s done it again (written a deeply informative and interesting thread about Bad Bunny)
"El Apagón" is the song Bad Bunny was performing during this part of the halftime show using imagery that was apparently too subtle for some people
It's one of his most interesting songs with a ton of political context and meaning plus it’s an absolute banger

During his Administration, Hurricane Maria knocked out power to 1.5 million people in Puerto Rico and it didn’t get restored for ABOUT A YEAR! It was the largest blackout in U.S. history. This should be line one of any hurricane recovery political coverage. www.vox.com/identities/2...
