Well, after viewing the Reidout tonight I am convinced that AA parents ought to include in "the talk

how to respond out loud when being accosted by police. When police yell "DROP YOUR WEAPON" they should yell back "YOU'RE LYING, I DON'T HAVE A WEAPON!" When police yell STOP RESISTING! Yell back, "I AM NOT RESISTING!"

It probably won't stop them at the moment but the public and the tapes will capture the yelling and maybe it will be easier to prosecute the renegade police?

Final Account (Netflix)

These people and their progeny still walk among us.
If you are wondering if telling the truth and exposing the lies to people will ultimately make many or at least some see the light you are dreaming. This docu is astounding. Makes me even more certain that we are headed toward becoming the new Nazi Germany right here in America. Evil exists. Two lines from the docu that stuck with me: "Do not let your eyes be blinded."
"They just didn't care."

Evil wins because we let it...on purpose.

One other eye-opener on Netflix: "Hitler, A Career." (Trump, A Career)

With everything coming out now about DOJ and other government inaction being talked about now, we need to stay woke! Now is not the time to ignore HISTORY!

Sorry Bolton, Trump is not the only threat to our national security.

Every GOP Representative and Senator is a national threat to our security and democracy. Just check the record. Check the photos of what accepted audiences with Putin and met with him over the past 6 years. Check who accepted invitations and met with MSB and accepted billions from him in the last 6 years. Just check the fucking record. And I include Trump supporters in the Military and Intel community in that group also.

LET THE HOUSE CLEANING AT THE FBI BEGIN! It should have begun during the Obama admin.

But it certainly should have begun after Trump admin. McGonigal arrested. Story breaking now.

Joe Mansion is full of shit. On MTP discussing documents Biden vs Trump.

SMH I just can't even go there. It's sad, but Biden discovering these documents in his possession at his homes is giving Trump a free pass on his treasonous, treachery, and refusal to voluntarily return the classified docs in his possession.

What reason did Trump have these documents? We all know Trump doesn't read, refused to read in own briefing material, almost refused to listen to briefings unless to dig up dirt on pol opponents. Plus, any foreign affairs dealings for Trump was for his own personal benefit and not national business.

On the other hand, Biden has been in international foreign affairs for most of his political career and was one of the reasons Obama selected him for VP. As VP, he was deeply involved in security and international affairs. AND we know Biden actually read his briefing materials and could speak about most foreign affair matters on behalf of the US and not himself.

Artificial Intelligence...the death knoll of capitalism and democracy as we know it.

This time it won't be the loss of industrial jobs that took its toll on working middle and lower class as automations replaced them. AI will be replacing white collar, high paying positions. And it will replace at a much higher and faster pace. These folks and their owners already do not pay their fair share of taxes...losing those jobs with their high salaries will give the RW MAGAs what they say they have always wanted. A strangled Federal government, unable to sustain its social safety net, which sustains a standard of living once the envy of the globe. I house of cards that they are now building will come crashing in a blink. Wait for it. The defanged government that the MAGAs are leaving us as they swarm through political positions of power will not be able to control or regulate protections against the on coming storm. Think about it.

Maybe it's just me but I can hardly wait until the Oversight Committee has their hearings and

Dem comply with every subpoena, appear at hearings and make them all look like fools like HRC did during the Benghazi hearings. If Dems have no fear, tell the truth, slap back with facts when they have the opportunity, and stare the fascists down on their own turf.

What is on our side? Truth, facts, intelligence, history and citizens who support democracy.

The US media again. Would I be correct in assuming the child was white? No photos of parents, no

exhaustive search for criminal records of the parents, no reports disparaging rants about unemployment, welfare recipients etc. You know the, MO for black children and families. Just say'in.
