The Florida Highway Patrol openly admitted to a lawyer that they racial profiled her client.
www.tampabay.com/news/florida...?
She said her client was originally held at a U.S. Customs and Border Protection building in Dania Beach for about a week after he was stopped at a truck weigh station by Florida Highway Patrol officers on June 25. He has a valid driver’s license, Cuprys said. She still doesn’t know why he was detained that day. The Honduran man called her when he was stopped and a Florida Highway Patrol officer took the phone and told her that anyone who “appears Hispanic” needs to be sent to Customs and Border Protection to have their license verified, she said. Cuprys didn’t name her client publicly, but the Times/Herald was able to independently confirm he is a detainee at the facility.

So a scared child lies about his age and the racially profiling cops send him to a concentration camp with the adults.

Then the party that fights tooth and nail against any form of official ID for immigrants blames their 100% unintentional snafu on the child's lack of papers.

He is the champion negro hater
Although he finds many things to eat
His favorite morsel is Negro meat.”

Democratic messaging now competing against the massive propaganda machine of the entire US Government. Most folks simply won't believe official messages like this are full of lies.
Social Security Applauds Passage of Legislation Providing Historic Tax Relief for Seniors The Social Security Administration (SSA) is celebrating the passage of the One Big, Beautiful Bill, a landmark piece of legislation that delivers long-awaited tax relief to millions of older Americans. The bill ensures that nearly 90% of Social Security beneficiaries will no longer pay federal income taxes on their benefits, providing meaningful and immediate relief to seniors who have spent a lifetime contributing to our nation's economy. “This is a historic step forward for America’s seniors,” said Social Security Commissioner Frank Bisignano. “For nearly 90 years, Social Security has been a cornerstone of economic security for older Americans. By significantly reducing the tax burden on benefits, this legislation reaffirms President Trump’s promise to protect Social Security and helps ensure that seniors can better enjoy the retirement they’ve earned." The new law includes a provision that eliminates federal income taxes on Social Security benefits for most beneficiaries, providing relief to individuals and couples. Additionally, it provides an enhanced deduction for taxpayers aged 65 and older, ensuring that retirees can keep more of what they have earned. Social Security remains committed to providing timely, accurate information to the public and will continue working closely with federal partners to ensure beneficiaries understand how this legislation may affect them.

IN YOUR FACE TEXAS:

Thanks to the sick leadership of our Governor, Florida is leading the nation in performative cruelty.

But will this be enough for Lickspittle Ron to worm his way into the Royal Court at Mar-a-Lago?

Nazi's conclusion: The constitution is unconstitutional.
But the question of how officials should respond to Mr. Damsky — who, in an interview, said that referring to him as a Nazi “would not be manifestly wrong” — is not merely academic. Image A tall, gray concrete building with rectangular windows and brick panels is visible behind two tree trunks in the foreground, with grass in front. After Mr. Damsky posted on X that Jews must be “abolished by any means necessary,” the university suspended him, barred him from campus and stepped up police patrols around the law school.Credit...Jacob Langston for The New York Times Mr. Damsky’s paper includes arguments similar to those recently adopted by the Trump administration, including a call to “reconsider” birthright citizenship, and an assertion that “aliens remain second-class persons under the Constitution.” It also argues that courts should challenge the constitutionality of the 14th Amendment, which ensures birthright citizenship, due process and equal protection under the law, and the 15th Amendment, which protects the right to vote for nonwhite citizens.

Like so many of my bosses, this boss is not just an asshole - He's a stupid fucking asshole.

My union, full of know nothing MAGA telephone men, negotiated a new paid holiday for us and now we get to choose to take Juneteenth or Veteran's Day.

I have not heard any complaints from the rank and file.

It's funny because it's delusional. But they picked LA to single it out. Make an example, Divide and conquer. Make people fear speaking out.

But this whole over-reaction is based on A FEW HUNDRED FOLKS who hit the streets to tell them to fuck off.

That's what they fear. Keep them scared.

This is not what the actual Presidential Memorandum says. Trump claims that the guard will be used to assist ICE. Not to quell protests.
The White House Memo that does not invoke the insurrection act and also does not say that the national guard is called out to quell protests

The Act as it exists today creates three distinct situations in which the President is authorized to “call out” regular federal armed forces on U.S. soil for law enforcement purposes:
most problematically, to put down “any insurrection, domestic violence, unlawful combination, or conspiracy, if it— (1) so hinders the execution of the laws of that State, and of the United States within the State, that any part or class of its people is deprived of a right, privilege, immunity, or protection named in the Constitution and secured by law, and the constituted authorities of that State are unable, fail, or refuse to protect that right, privilege, or immunity, or to give that protection; or (2) opposes or obstructs the execution of the laws of the United States or impedes the course of justice under those laws.”

The suspension of the search for the liberal arts college’s dean also follows years of political tension between the DeSantis administration and Florida’s higher education institutions. DeSantis has implemented sweeping reforms banning diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, restricting how race and gender can be taught and giving state-appointed boards greater power over academic affairs. Critics say the changes amount to ideological censorship and are undermining academic freedom. UF has been a focal point of those battles — particularly its liberal arts college. Since 2022, humanities professors at the college have been locked in a feud with UF’s Hamilton Center for Classical and Civic Education, a GOP-backed institute that critics view as part of a top-down conservative overhaul of curriculum. Tensions flared last spring, culminating in the resignation of then-liberal arts dean David Richardson in May, leaving the college under interim leadership ever since. The four finalists in the now-suspended search for a permanent liberal arts dean had participated in recorded public interviews, where some voiced concerns about recent legislative actions and the impact on faculty morale. The CommiesOnCampus post featured selectively edited clips of those interviews and accused the candidates of pushing progressive agendas. The account, which has increasingly targeted Florida academics, describes itself as dedicated to “exposing communism in America.”
