Drew Lock on preparing for Week 2:
“I'm attacking this week with the same mindset as I would if I wasn't playing...I've been through this process enough where I have my schedule down and I'm sticking by it.”

our elites terrorize the entire world while ordinary americans continue to foot the bill. we spent trillions "fighting" the terror we created to provide cover for our oil barons stealing 3rd world resources.
it only amounted to more death overseas, more poverty at home. all while the MIC ballooned. no houses, no hospitals, no schools-just a growing crisis of homelessness, underemployment and diseases of despair in the wealthiest country on earth.
Macklemore is donating his entire $1 million salary from Ed Sheeran's tour to organizations supporting Palestine and is inviting Robert Kraft, who blocked him from performing at Gillette Stadium, to match the donation.
“Whatever we disagree about, perhaps we can agree on this: Palestinian lives are worth protecting. A Palestinian life is no less valuable than any other life on this earth.
That is what this has always been about. Not me. Not a tour. Not the headlines or the controversy. It is about Palestinians right to freedom, dignity and safety in their own homeland. I want to center the parents carrying their children into hospitals without the basic resources to treat them, and the physicians, paramedics, journalists and aid workers who keep going back in. I want to center the organizers and activists who have paid real costs for standing with Palestine. Their risk is of a far different order than mine.
Palestinians have lived for decades without basic rights and should not have to wait another day to be free. That is where my focus will remain. I will continue to stand with the Palestinian people and their fight for liberation. When the news cycle moves on, which it will, don't move with it.

ed sheeran is a coward, he chose the pro genocide side. this is solidarity. for justice to prevail, we must always speak truth to power no matter the cost.
Ed Sheeran’s band, Beoga, have dropped out of his tour:
“We have made the decision to depart as Ed Sheeran's band on the remaining US Loop tour, following the silencing of Macklemore by zionist lobbies.”
absolutely ridiculous position from an ultrazionist trump supporter, who's been awarded by bb for combating israel's critics. its clear that our billionaires are placing their emotional support apartheid state and its genocide over free expression. we must not let this happen
