This is the clickbait Faux News article, that led me to the referenced research which I posted about earlier. Worth a moment, but not nearly as interesting and informative as the Univ of Minn site itself.

White Americans should celebrate and uplift this work, and take it to heart in their own life. Changing white culture in America will change the world forever, for the better. I can think of no greater gift a small group of people could offer the world. #endracism

With all due respect, this is a country founded on genocide and slavery.

Where witches were burnt, and lynchings by the thousands.

Trail of Tears. Tulsa Massacre. Chinese Exclusion Act. The internment of Japanese. Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The Tuskegee Study.

I could go on, but why?

They know tariffs led to the Great Depression.

That's EXACTLY what they want to happen again.

Oligarchs bought up
America at pennies on the dollar during the Depression.

The lesson the rich took away from the Depression is they get bargains, not that the poor and vulnerable suffered.

#tariffs
Warner on Fox News Sunday on Navarro's case for tariffs: "He's talking about tariffs in the first Trump administration. He should've looked a little more at history. I think they were called the Smoot-Hawley tariffs in the 1920s. That policy led to the Depression."

Also, a woman was handcuffed at a subway station in NYC (Franklin Ave) when she intervened asking why a delivery man was asked to show work permit by undercover agents. There is a video of that.

This is damning evidence against the Trump regime. Trump invoked a war time act to justify his unconstitutional treatment of civilians, but the intelligence threat assessment flat out contradicts his invocation, leaving it without justification or ground to stand on.
Trump says he can invoke the wartime Alien Enemies Act of 1798 because the nation is at “war” w/Venezuelan gangs. At yesterday’s House hearing on the newly published Annual Worldwide Threats Assessment, Rep. Castro asked a blunt question: Why is there no mention of it the official threat assessment?
