Today’s Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act, freeing state legislatures to gerrymander legislative districts to systematically dilute and weaken the voting power of racial minorities - so long as they do it under the guise of “partisanship” rather than explicit “racial bias.” And it serves as just one more example of how a majority of the current Court seems intent on abandoning its vital role in ensuring equal participation in our democracy and protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach.
The good news is that such setbacks can be overcome. But that will only happen if citizens across the country who cherish our democratic ideals continue to mobilize and vote in record numbers - not just in the upcoming midterms or in high profile races, but in every election and every level.
Dropping food from the air in Gaza is an ineffective sideshow. During my time as UN relief chief we had to stop such aid. Minimal amounts were delivered and chaos and accidents occurred on the ground.
All entries into Gaza have to be opened and distribution handed back to UN.
On Juneteenth, we celebrate freedom and recommit ourselves to the work that remains undone. We remember that even in the darkest hours, there is cause to hope for tomorrow’s light.
To every white person who donated to that woman—shame on you. You didn’t just give money. You gave approval. You co-signed the dehumanization of a five-year-old Black child. You didn’t just reward racism, you invested in it. You told the world that calling a Black child a n*88er is not only acceptable—but profitable.
You are not “good people.” You are not misunderstood. You are the very problem this country refuses to confront. Your donation is not just financial—it’s moral bankruptcy. It’s proof that anti-Blackness is not just alive, but thriving in your hearts. You didn’t give to help her—you gave to hurt us. You didn’t donate out of compassion—you donated out of contempt.
You have no moral ground to stand on. Don’t talk to us about “unity.” Don’t you dare quote Dr. King. Don’t pretend to care about children, justice, or decency when you’ve paid to protect a racist who attacked the most vulnerable among us. You’ve exposed yourselves. And we see you clearly.
There is no excuse. No justification. No forgiveness without repentance. What you did is vile. And history will remember you not as defenders of free speech, but as funders of hate.
Your money may protect her for a moment—but truth will expose you forever.
Kristersson: Brotten handlar mycket om invandring
——
Till Aftonbladet säger statsministern nu att det var ett ”bredare sätt” att säga att det inte handlar om att bara få ett pass i handen.
Enligt Kristersson finns det invandrare som inte är lika benägna att försvara Sverige.
Ulf Kristersson: Våldsvågen i Sverige har kopplingar till invandring
———
Ulf Kristersson och migrationsminister Maria Malmer Stenergard firade i veckan att fler personer flyttar från Sverige. ”Vi får saker gjorda” skrev Ulf Kristersson på Instagram.
Tror inte ett dugg på vad Kristersson säger nu.Det enda som har debatterats o sagts i de flesta debatter är hur invandrarna är.Visst har vi problem med gängkriminalitet,men det bottnar i mycket annat bla drogpolitiken.Väldigt komplexa frågor som man måste göra något åt. #svpol
