To be clear, they have not actually lost Greg Abbott. He approves. But he's got political calculations to make for his future presidency run. Never trust this man.
Oh shoot they've lost Greg Abbott! The same extremist who pardoned a mam who killed a BLM protestor.

Greg Abbott says ICE needs to 'recalibrate' mission after Minnesota shooting

This is exactly WHY it drives me completely insane that none of the major US news organizations seem to pay any attention to the what is happening in the white nationalist movement. This is excellent.

Here's a regular white guy (literally "Chad") not a protester. because, "It seemed pointless, or just a way for people to expiate their sense of guilt." Chad witnessed something shattering. And, that all changed in a moment.

On NPR on Friday, there was a story of a 4-year-old--an American citizen--who hasn't left her house since early December, not even to play in the yard. And her 8-year-old brother recently stopped going to school, too. Their father is undocumented, and the family doesn't want to risk him being taken.

I will never stop being tickled that when Jesse Ventura was asked to give it back he literally said “Why? I mean, we won”
Every time I remember the 28th Virginia Battle flag I feel compelled to remind non-Minnesotans about it.
Captured by MN troops at Gettysburg. Virginia has asked for it back MANY times, and all governors (of all parties) have refused and told them to fuck off.

Feels like society’s really broken down in the US in a way that’s deeply traumatic.
But also there are college students knocking on doors asking for shovels (they’re not well-prepared) and helping trapped motorists by shoveling and pushing out cars. Up to 24 of them now, wandering streets together
