⚠️WOKE CONTENT⚠️ 🧵 It was the first all-Black protest in America that most people never heard of. It was the loudest protest ever—all without saying a word.🤫 Let me tell you about The Silent Parade of 1917. (cont) #ProudBlue #ResistanceRoots #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

⚠️WOKE CONTENT⚠️ 🧵 In August of 1966, Black children in Grenada, Mississippi were still fighting for the right to attend White schools. What happened next was unconscionable. Pull up a seat🪑, my friends. (cont) #ProudBlue #ResistanceRoots #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

If you’re looking to understand who Alex Pretti was, look no further than this video where he honors a veteran who has passed away. He was not a domestic terrorist. He was a good man and a hero. (video pulled on X)

Alina Habba brings Real Housewives energy to racism.

i think this MLK day the thing to focus on is the strategic focus and tactical brilliance of the civil rights movement and the way it was laser focused on a set of achievable goals

Across platforms, I lost thousands of subscribers this week. I'm responding by doubling down on the articles that made them unsubscribe. I hold no ill will, but I also won't compromise on my values of justice. Here's what happened, and why I hope you'll join me: www.qasimrashid.com/p/why-i-lost...

There's no better way to observe MLK Day than to go on the news and insist that the civil rights protesters objecting to police brutality are actually "paid agitators"

I can’t really focus on anything but ice. I’m getting more and more frustrated with people I come across in my daily life that don’t know anything about it or don’t feel “connected to it.” 😡

For the fools that are still trying to claim kidnapping Maduro had something to do with fighting drug trafficking.

😭

Dog ain’t gonna wag itself.

Looks like things will be getting worse from this point forward until there’s a regime change here.

Not sure how they got dragged into the discussion-probably some Repuke politician-but there are more homicides in Alabama in total and definitely per capita than NYC and NYC has more people than Alabama. But yeah, NYC is a hellhole. Top 10 homicide rates are all in red states.

If you can't handle a few cuss words about the Trump administration you should block me now you weak-ass motherfuckers

Yeah, it was a very cold afternoon but I managed to get my 10k steps in today, fortunately most of the walk was shielded from the worst of the wind by the trees. Need some heated mitten!

Because of course they did, and the FBI is so inept they told on themselves.

The only reason Trump would have become a CI is if the FBI had some serious dirt on him. Remembering the recent story where Marla Maples-his wife then-warned the mother of a teenaged model to keep her daughter away from Trump and the other men attending an event at Mar-A-Lago.

IT'S BEEN NINE YEARS, AND OUR DUMBFUCK PRESS STILL KEEPS TELLING US THAT DONNY'S GOING TO MAGICALLY BECOME "PRESIDENTIAL." NEWS FLASH: IT'S NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN. I COVER THIS IN A VERY TREMENDOUS POST LIKE FEW THOUGHT POSSIBLE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO READING IT AT THIS LINK: bit.ly/49etpPw

Wondering if the public could stomach another bailout of the money folks like what happened after the 2008 crash where no one went to jail and the folks hurt the worst were left holding the bag.

"We cannot sit in the false comfort of 'vote blue no matter who' when the 'blue' we’re voting for still doesn’t support universal healthcare, a living wage, ending forever wars and genocides, and meaningful climate justice."

Thing is, he never was trying to ‘be popular’ or ‘do politics’ beyond appealing to his base, that’s still happening. He never actually cared about them but he still desires their worship, the only reason he’s still doing the occasional pep rally like Pennsylvania the other day.

You will own nothing and you will be happy.

“He lies like he actually believes what he’s saying,” a former business associate remarked. “He’s a pathological liar through and through. He lies for no obvious reason and seems to enjoy making enemies with his colleagues unnecessarily,” He has to be a Trump favorite. Birds of a feather.

NEW: "George Santos with a Gun" — here's the first in a series of reports based on my 9-month investigation into Rep. Cory Mills. sollenbergerrc.substack.com/p/george-san...

within the criminal justice system that disproportionately affect people of color. In short, UCR arrest data is being used improperly to imply guilt and to spread fear against Black people. Please be mindful of this the next time a racist throws crime statistics around. You're welcome.☕️ (end)

Things are terrible, but here's a groundhog hogging its best ground, with a plum.

What is painfully obvious in these moments isn't simply that the person alleging to lead this country is a terrible human being; it is that anyone left still defending him, applauding him, justifying him, celebrating him, probably is too. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/no-good-pe...

something i'll note is that if nuzzi ran catch-and-kill ops for rfk jr and lizza knew this prior to him being appointed as HHS, and instead of telling anyone, he decided to save it for his substack long after rfk jr had made communicable disease into federal policy, that's completely fucked

Any journalist who has reached out to the federal government for a statement this year can attest to the unhinged responses they always get. I picked a couple of examples www.liberalcurrents.com/the-war-on-p...

One of the few positive aspects of this era in American history is that it's super-easy to identify the villains.

Oh hell no! No fucking way!!

Okay, so I did it. In honor of Sandwich Guy, on what should be the last day of his trial, I figured out the chords. And so, with apologies to the late and great Bob Marley, I banged out this quick and (very) rough rendition of "I Threw the Sandwich." 🤣

MEDIA: Convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, and recent insurrectionist Donald Trump got reelected by making Americans believe crime was going up when it was going down. We have no idea how he accomplished this feat of making crime seem like a much, much bigger issue than it actually is. ALSO MEDIA:

Reminder: Many Americans are going to be hungry this week, thanks to Trump & co. Help them any way you can. They don't deserve to be treated this way while Trump is focused on a golden ballroom. #ProudBlue

Speaker Johnson, you say you’re a man of God and I believed you. You put your hand on the Bible, you swore an oath- now keep your word to God and country and swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social, the Democrat from my home state of Arizona!

Advertising the corruption right out in the open. On the plus side, they’re no longer whining about the fictional ‘Biden Crime Family’.

And ultimately taxpayers-not those ‘job creators’ foot the bill. Because we know those guys-guys like Trump-either don’t pay or pay a minuscule amount of income tax.

Why does Just Dance Vance feel so threatened by Joy Ann Reid…
