Good. President Biden just came out after the Louisville shooting and asked the million dollar question: “When will Republicans in Congress act to protect our communities?” Very glad to have a president who wants more than just thoughts & prayers.
It turns out, "Woke" is Republican-speak for anyone who gives a damn about other human beings or the planet; a dog-whistle slur against expressions of humanity that seek or to spread resources, opportunity, power, and a voice to more people.

1. Clarence isn’t denying that he took these gifts, he’s denying that it matters.

Wow.
The amount of potential compromise for one the most powerful people in America is staggering.
- his wife wants a culture war with half the country
- he had millions in unreported luxury trips

holy fucking shit, if trained armed guards INSIDE A FUCKING BANK couldn't prevent a mass shooting, how the fuck can we expect armed teachers to prevent one in a school. come on, people, THINK. we need fewer guns and more brains
I guess she misses the entire point of his death. According to most Christians Jesus was given the option to live but accepted his fate as a sacrifice for humanity. He died for our sins. He never would have taken up arms. What part of “turn the other cheek” does she not get?
This is horrendous: "After the GOP assumed control of the Buckingham County Electoral Board, which oversees Lindsey Taylor's office, local Republicans began advancing baseless voter fraud claims that baffled her." https://t.co/MyCisiL0dm
