THIS IS AN ENTIRE BOOK👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽:
I no longer hold a safe space for white people to unlearn bigoted and biased behaviors. I've long chosen not to put up with anyone's sh*t across the board. That's the only way some of you hard-headed mothers’ fckrs are going to learn.

“The message came a day after the bishops unveiled ‘You Are Not Alone,’ a program that lays out ways for Catholics..to provide direct aid & solidarity to immigrants

Worth noting white & Latino (race not noted) Catholics voted in maj FOR Trump

Black Catholics did not😶

Thank you for gift article
Here’s a gift link (no paywall) to the article, “Catholic bishops condemn ‘indiscriminate mass deportation’ in rare statement”:

We’ve heard so many times b4 “this is it”; “this is beginning of end”; “he will never survive this”

Yet he always does b/c a critical % of white Americans—inc his co-conspirators in Congress & SCOTUS—support him😶

AND b/c white voters keep voting those congressional co-conspirators back in office😒

YES, THIS:
Y’all keep doing this thing where you’re trying to “expand” the base of concern so that people can address racism by …avoiding any actual discussion of racism.

Some black folks spend a whole lotta time explaining shit to white people that are clearly dead set on misunderstanding them. And TO ME thats just too much like begging for white acceptance. Why are you wasting your time with that nonsense. Im not explaining a gotdamn thing to any of these people.

Lib Dem Leader @eddavey.libdems.org.uk:

"A great British institution is under attack from a foreign government. President Trump is trying to destroy our BBC... Trump has undermined press freedom in America. Now he's trying to do the same here, disgracefully egged on by the leader of Reform."

To hear white men in Dem Party advocate for candidates who have Nazi tattoos & racists messages as ppl who “struggled in dark periods of their lives”—yes, that is how they are excusing their racist beliefs—& as “real ppl” who “need to be understood instead of attacked”—ie held accountable.😶😶😶

IN. SUM:
Because he’s using pardons as get of jail free cards for all his criminals in his enterprise. RICO the Republican Party 😭
NEW: Under DOJ standards and requirements, people seeking pardons generally must wait five years after release, demonstrate good conduct and remorse, and file petitions through the Office of the Pardon Attorney.

Trump has largely abandoned that process.

“House Speaker Mike Johnson..
would not commit..to address health care affordability b4..ACA tax subsidies expire..8 Senate Dems..voted..to help reopen the gvrnmnt..w/ the belief..Repubs would begin healthcare talks.”

Everybody & their mamas told the 8 Dem Senators. But noooooo..😒

Mike Johnson would not commit Monday when Jake Tapper pressed him on bringing a vote to address health care affordability before the ACA tax subsidies expire.

8 Democrat senators caved, & now:

“Senate Republicans say they’re open to extending a pot of Affordable Care Act funds that will expire at the end of the year—but ONLY IF Democrats acquiesce to stricter abortion restrictions on insurance plans.”😶😶😶

My Evening Read:

www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...
Republicans demand tougher abortion restrictions to extend Obamacare funds
Democrats say that’s a nonstarter, arguing there are already limits on abortion access. The dispute could torpedo a deal, leading to higher health insurance premiums for millions.

/ because he objected to the Defense Department reimbursing travel costs to female soldiers for abortions. Johnson closed the House for weeks, violating Art. 1, sec. 5 of the Constitution.
We need to change rules that let a single senator or representative block the normal work of government.

Mike Johnson refused to swear in Adelita Grijalva for 7 weeks after she won her election by about 40 points. Mitch McConnell refused to give Obama’s Supreme Court nominee, Merrick Garland, even a hearing for most of a year. Sen. Tommy Tuberville blocked all military nominations for 10 months /

Agree.

That is too much work for them tho…
Karoline Leavitt does almost daily press briefings. There should be equal and opposite briefings from Democrat spokespeople to counter her lies. God knows there would be plenty of material to counter.

If you didn't learn this life lesson in third grade, GTFO of the US Senate.

And because the majority of white voters who voted, voted them in.

No. Other. Majority. of voters in any other racial group did.😶
