If you want to put back statues and memorials and names of Confederate traitors while tearing down museum exhibitions on slavery because they don't show the greatness of the nation... the nation whose history you're celebrating is whiteness. The kind of nationalist you are is a white nationalist.

Pedophilia is wrong.
Racism is wrong.
Letting people starve is wrong.
Denying care to the sick is wrong.
Stripping away rights is wrong.
Stealing is wrong.
Sexual assault is wrong.
Bribery is wrong.
These aren't partisan issues. They're moral ones.

I'd just like to point out how weird it is that places with hundreds or even thousands of reporters — the NYT, WaPo, CBS, NBC, AP, etc. — are all getting pummeled on every major story by the dozen computerboys at Wired. To fumble the bag this consistently is, at some point, cowardice and a choice.
NEW: Metadata from the “raw” Epstein prison video shows approximately 2 minutes and 53 seconds were removed from one of two stitched-together clips. The cut starts right at the “missing minute.”

I think it would be helpful when republicans (including president dipshit) drag out the “waste fraud and abuse” cliche to dig down and ask what they actually mean by that and how much they think there is exactly
