The pervasiveness of racism in everyday life.

I was on the phone with a friend, inviting him to an NAACP event and he had me on speaker and with him was a friend of his who is not a liberal as far as I know.

My friend is, everyone in this story is W by the way (I dont use the full word, gets WAY too much attention.)

When I mentioned the event and NAACP his friend in the background started laughing about how they even still existed and how we better not show up with black-face HA HA HA HA!

My friend kinda shut that shit down and we changed topics, but this idiot has NO CLUE what he is saying could be offensive and absolutely DOES NOT care!

The ONLY situation where he would CARE is if he said it in a room of POC or WOKE W people and he received the appropriate negative attention.

Pervasive, daily,everywhere, constant.

Anyone know where the states OR Democratic Party is officially on TAX RETURNS ?

I am a little confused on who can demand them and where.

State law to run you have to, is that a thing?

Sure hope the D party requires this.

I wonder, has the gas-lighting and constant MSM normalization of rump and friends

gotten to the point that if Barr fired Mueller, if Barr hid the report, if Barr stopped any justice from occurring, that we would NOT react the ONLY way that would save the democracy?

Would 60 million of us go into the streets and stay there until the traitors relented?

Or would we just say it is another day. Which it would not be, it would be the "last" day.

Is Roger Stone in JAIL today after threatening a judge?

I dont see the answer anywhere.

Too bad he isnt a democrat, I wouldnt have to bother asking.

Cory Booker, the more you know the more you LOVE him!

First off, compared to rump Cory is god like. But then almost all of our candidates are in that comparison.

After listening to Rachel turns out Cory did amazing shit ALL THE TIME as Mayor. Stuff nobody else does.

Only 30% of America wants to control and if necessary kill women for controlling their own bodies

that is the good news





https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/first-read/nbc-wsj-poll-support-roe-v-wade-hits-new-high-n893806


Bad news is the 23% who want women punished, executed maybe, for controlling their own bodies, they almost ALL vote.

edit to read 23% (I had originally incorrectly put in 30%)...when we figure half of us dont vote, if all 23% vote, bad news.

Do you have satellite or cable TV? Get your internet from?

Call them every month and ask them if there are any coupons or discounts that can be applied to your account.

I have Directv and my bill is $200 a month, for a very long time now by making one call a month i have not paid over $140, not once.
