This dirty pig had NO reason to abuse the compliant, non-violent Black man, pulling his hair and striking him in the face.
That "cop" needs to be fired and prosecuted, and the police department sued for millions.
THAT is why we protest.
James Talarico: “What would Jesus say if he walked onto the floor of the US Senate? I think he would say I was hungry and you kicked me off food stamps. I was sick and you kicked me off Medicaid. If we claim to be Christians, we need to love our neighbors not just through our words, but through our actions, through our public policy”
I’m happy to share this because I don’t care what side of the aisle you sit on, this is a fact.
Speaker Mike Johnson this is for you.
Concerning Social Security payments, my contributions were made for over 50 years on every salary I received. From my first part time job until I retired. I always had a job.
The Social Security check is now (or soon will be) referred to as a "Federal Benefit Payment?" I'll be part of the one percent to forward this.I am forwarding it because it touches a nerve in me, and I hope it will in you. Please keep passing it on until everyone in our country has read it.
The government is now referring to our Social Security checks as a "Federal Benefit Payment." This isn't a benefit. It is our money paid out of our earned income! Not only did we all contribute to Social Security but our employers did too.
It totaled 15% of our income before taxes.
Congress took our money and used it elsewhere. They forgot (oh yes, they knew) that it was OUR money they were taking.
They didn't have a referendum to ask us if we wanted to lend the money to them. And they didn't pay interest on the debt they assumed. And recently they've told us that the money won't support us for very much longer. And now, to add insult to injury, they're calling it a "benefit", as if we never worked to earn every penny of it.
Just because they borrowed the money doesn't mean that our investments were a charity!
Let's take a stand. We have earned our right to Social Security and Medicare. Demand that our legislators bring some sense into our government.
Find a way to keep Social Security and Medicare going for the sake of that 92% of our population who need it. Then call it what it is: Our Earned Retirement Income.
99% of people won't forward this to their timelines…..will you?
Please, for the sake of our country, repost this.
James Talarico: “You may not be interested in politics, but politics is interested in you. Your boss at work, he cares about politics. Your landlord, he cares about politics. Your insurance company cares about politics. Until you care about politics, they’re gonna keep using the political system to screw you over”
GALLEGO: Would you say as a former auditor you pride yourself on catching waste?
DENNIS: Yes
GALLEGO: Let's do a test. Would you say $600m on a ballroom, half paid by taxpayers, is a good fiscal decision?
DENNIS: Oh, I'm not going to get involved in what the White House is doing
GALLEGO: As HUD CFO, this is literally the job
Last year, Microsoft made $101 billion in profits, got a $12.5 billion tax break from Trump & paid its CEO $96 million.
This year, it’s raising the price of an Xbox by $150 & eliminating 3,200 jobs.
Please don’t tell me corporate tax breaks create jobs. It never trickles down.
#BREAKING: Velshi: “Now, let’s be honest about what this voting bill actually [#SAVEAct] is. The premise is FALSE. Non-citizen voting essentially DOES NOT exist in America. I have lots of examples but tonight I’m going to give you Utah. Utah two million registered voters and found—I hope you’re sitting down for this—ONE confirmed non-citizen registration and ZERO instances of non-citizens actually voting.” 😳
A 7-year-old girl wrote to President Obama after losing her mother to cancer, and he wrote back.
17 years later, her letter lives on at the Obama Presidential Center. She became a registered nurse and thanked him for reminding her to dream big.
Shoutout to all the Christians who spent the week telling Haitian refugees to go back to their country and then woke up this morning and head to church.
You're the real hypocrites.
🚨DISGUSTING: Stephen Miller goes on an evil rant that hungry kids get too much food assistance while Trump and his billionaire budded loot the country with corporate fraud.
Then he loops Somalis in because he wasn’t being racist enough.
He is literally the worst of us.
BREAKING: James Talarico just torched Ken Paxton in a way we didn’t think was possible. Retweet this to make sure every Texan knows how corrupt Paxton really is.
Jill Biden just posted this.
This is an actual happy family who cares about each other and loves each other.
These are good people who care about America and didn’t use it to enrich themselves.
Xi didn't greet trump at the airport.
He's only buying 200 Boeings from the U.S., not the 500 expected.
trump lavished praise on him like a pathetic fanboy.
Xi made trump his BITCH.
Be a shame if this picture got retweeted all over and went viral.
TWEEPS: Americans are getting hammered by rising gas, grocery, and utility costs while trump shrugs off their financial pain, and Republicans pretend not to notice. WE CAN'T AFFORD THIS!
I need 1,000 fast RTs and replies using #WeCantAffordTrump
Please and thank you! 🙏💪
So in case anybody’s counting, today he called not one, but two female reporters “stupid.”
He is going to continue to do this.
He’s going to start calling them far worse.
Because nobody fucking stops him.
STOP PLAYING GAMES WITH BLACK PEOPLE, AND BLACK PEOPLE STOP ALLOWING THESE GAMES TO BE PLAYED WITH YOU!!!
@defiantlawyers an actual civil rights attorney provides a detailed analysis of how Democrats secured the Voting Rights Act (VRA) for Black Americans. However, the GOP undermined it with the appointment of three justices by #Trump. Additionally, he explains how certain pro-Black impostors contribute to this issue by discouraging Black individuals from voting or urging them to support Trump.
And here we are: trump has now instructed his DOJ to target #Black and #Latino-majority #voting districts across the country — using the #SupremeCourt’s recent decision gutting the #VotingRightsAct as a legal weapon.
Louisiana’s GOP governor just declared a STATE OF EMERGENCY to CANCEL an election.
Not for a storm — but to redraw maps so he can ERASE a historically Black district.
They’re not even hiding it. MAGA is rigging elections to silence YOU.
