Foster children are not disposable:
"... her teachers reported that in the short time Ma’Khia Bryant was there, she was “very respectful, attended school each day, and was eager to learn.”

Usually I don’t talk about stuff like this because frankly it happens way too often. But not today…

As I pulled into the same faculty parking lot that I park in all the time @msstate, a white woman was coming out of my office building. Her car was parked next to the space I pulled into.

"...A woman’s worth is based solely on her willingness to reproduce — not on her intelligence, her work or her contributions to society."

This, on behalf of VP Harris and women in general. Watch till the end because it’s hilarious.

[Jemele Hill @jemelehill]

I know this is a strange concept for conservatives to grasp but … maybe let women choose what’s right for them, whether that include children, homemaking, rocket science, childlessness, traveling the world, or whatever they feel passionate about. A woman having freedom of choice probably melts your brain, but I promise it will be fine.

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) not pulling any punches re: Speaker Mike Johnson appearing at Trump’s NYC trial.

She kills things she hates and deems “worthless.”

Some Native communities saw bears as our coequals.

My heart breaks for this innocent bear and the poor little 14 month old puppy this sick, twisted woman murdered in cold blood.

Wtf....white privilege run amok

Iowa’s 3 public universities are closing their DEI offices

Iowa State’s president said they’ve established learning communities so that ‘a young man, young white man, from rural Iowa, could find the place where they could belong’

NEW: an ideological divide is emerging between young men and women in many countries around the world.

I think this one of the most important social trends unfolding today, and provides the answer to several puzzles.

[Andy Kim @AndyKimNJ]

We must earnestly and honestly take on the question of why there are so many in our country that seek to hurt instead of help. We are becoming a nation addicted to anger that is facing a spiraling crisis of empathy. Also disinformation and polarization at extreme levels. 9/11

I want to tell you a story about body cameras and *Derek Chauvin*

What Chauvin did to George Floyd, kneeling on his neck, was his move.

He had done to others.

It was all recorded by body cams.

But the footage was kept secret.

And Chauvin was left unpunished

[short THREAD]

[Eric Umansky @ericuman]

Three months later, Chauvin did it again.

First, he hit a 14-year-old boy repeatedly with his flashlight.

He choked him.

Then Chauvin knelt on his neck for 15 minutes as the boy’s
mother, begged, ‘‘Please, please do not kill my son!’’

[Eric Umansky @ericuman]

In June, 2017, Chauvin arrested a young Black woman named Zoya Code.

Chauvin dragged the handcuffed Code outside her home and slammed
her to the ground.

Then pressed his knee into her neck for nearly five minutes.

“Don't kill me," Code begged.

This is why I laughed at the idea of a racial reckoning in 2020. Since then, they’ve been waiting for the get-back because they have such deep-seated resentment toward being forced into any level of accountability.
