Police detain Black man just walking down sidewalk—for eating purple pack of Skittles.

Violently handcuff him—threaten to arrest him for "pedestrian obstructing."

He is well known local athlete who played in NFL—now volunteers mentoring kids.

Why is Gang Unit targeting him?

Incident occurred in El Paso, Texas.

Cornelius Brown is a former UTEP and NFL player who founded SkyB Nation and does grassroots youth mentorship and athlete-to-school outreach with local students.

He doesn't have an account on this platform—so posting first full length and credited video here to help raise awareness.

WORTH REPEATING:

Don’t forget that Trump is increasing your Medicare premiums in 2027, AFTER the election, because he knows his voters are fucking stupid.

Dolly Parton figured out something too many billionaires never will: the greatest measure of wealth isn’t how extravagantly you can spend it on yourself. It’s how many lives you can change with it. She chose children over trophies. That’s a legacy money can’t buy.

Republicans are an embarrassment to America.

[Brad @BraddrofliT]

It makes you wonder what conversations are happening behind closed doors. But the frightening part is that they don’t need a secret meeting to dismantle constitutional guardrails. We’re watching elected officials surrender some of them in broad daylight.

THE TRUMP RECEIPTS (updated daily)
The running record of Trump 2.0 that America cannot afford to forget.

• August 31, 2026 — Treasury blocks major news organizations from G20 coverage: Treasury denied reporters from The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg credentials without publicly explaining why. The denials are established; viewpoint retaliation is not.

• Corruption, cruelty, arrogance, and authoritarian overreach becoming the daily operating system of this administration.

• People are angry. People are exhausted. People are awake. And people have had enough.

This song is a result of MAGA Trump supporters and the Trump administration pushing the average American beyond their personal limits.

[Phillipson Institute @phillipsoninst]

@LongTimeHistory People voted for trump without realizing that their own lives would be affected. They assumed all the bad MAGA policies would not affect them.
They didn't care if it hurt other people. A lack of empathy or humanity.

Truly a FAFO moment.
Everything Trump Touches Dies. #ETTD
