@hank_elsner @LakotaMan1 Many of those enslaved folks created Black Wall Street in Oklahoma. American history is fraught and complicated and often terrible, and MUST be taught.
Superb piece by @Freedland demonstrating why Joe Biden is proving a transformational and hugely consequential President. He rarely gets credit for throwing Neo-liberal economics into reverse. He should.

I wasn’t going to post this video because I’m sick of Larry Hogan making the rounds trying to legitimize No Labels’ bs talking points. But he’s straight up lying here and it needs to be called out.
#WhoFundsNoLabels
• No Labels is not a “grassroots” citizen funded organization. It’s a dark money organization funded by billionaires and big corporations. Their goal is lower taxes for that same donor class.
• Hogan is also misleading about not being a political party. No Labels has gained ballot access in 10 states.

If you still support Biden and plan on voting for him again, we should be following each other and my followers want to follow you as well. Put
#RidinWithBiden in comments! Repost! Let’s trend ##RidinWithBiden
You know folks, I always try to respect someone’s religion, even if they wear it on their sleeve, but there is a clear hypocrisy with a Governor who on the one hand quotes scripture but yet sanctions pilfering aid to poor folks and giving it to undeserving rich folks instead and who refuses to extend health care for poor people by expanding Medicaid. We know how @tatereeves really believes in helping the least of these. He does not. Time to #SaveMississippi and vote @BrandonPresley this November
@Scoobiesshorts It's surreal. There's an overconfidence that people have about COVID; it's kinda terrifying.
I constantly remind myself that airborne vasculitis is not a fate anybody should suffer from without having a choice to avoid it.
SARS is severe. Avoid it like the plague that it is.
For those of you with friends who are there:
1) More rain is projected. It’s very wet right now and cars and other vehicles can’t drive and likely can’t for several days.
2) There is a lot of food and water and people are really generous and sharing,
3) we decided to make the hike, but it is very slippery and the mud is like cement and sticks to your boots. It also has some quicksand properties — it grabs your boots and sometimes you are stuck. No one should try this unless in good shape and part of a group. It was quite hard, and will get harder if/when it rains more. Talk your friends out of the hike unless you really think they can do it safely. There are treacherous places where it is worse than walking on ice.
4) If they do hike, tell them to use GPS, download a map if they can, walk out at 6 o,clock and try to go in as straight a line as possible to the closest road meeting point it. There is no cell reception for the first 60% (att) and 70% (Verizon). They should try to arrange someone to pick them up at the meeting point before they leave if at all possible.
5) if they are hiking they should time it so that there will not be rain for 2-3 hours from the time they start
6) Most impt thing is to encourage them to be safe. If it takes several days to leave, so be it. These are dangerous conditions to hike and will likely get worse.
I hope this helps. Please know I’m no weather, traffic, or hiking expert —these are just my observations after doing the hike. Thinking of you all. I’m now off to a very needed sleep.
BREAKING: LeBron James’ son, Bronny James’ cardiac arrest was caused by a congenital heart defect, NOT THE MRNA VACCINE.
“It is an anatomically and functionally significant Congenital Heart Defect which can and will be treated,” stated a spokesperson for the LeBron James Family Foundation. “We are very confident in Bronny’s full recovery and return to basketball in the very near future.”
Another ridiculous conspiracy theory proven wrong.
Tennessee House subcommittee members had state troopers physically remove gun safety activists who quietly held signs from a hearing.
We bow down to this woman who - visibly shaking - said: “You will have to drag me out.”
Moms will win.
"We in Hawaii have been through hurricanes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions - but we have NEVER seen such a robust federal response. Thank you." - @brianschatz
As I keep saying, we have had a rapid and robust federal response.
So, the 37-follower account that seeded the “Hawaii, not Ukraine” narrative was only created last month, so didn’t have much history, but her RT’s basically mapped out the right-wing influencer network.
Except for one detail: She retweeted Sen. John Kennedy. Repeatedly… 1/
@NAAAAAHHHOo @JSlipakoff @bluestein What does this even mean? You are super ignorant if you can’t process this simple story. Maybe no one loved you so you need to spread hate? I’m sorry for your pain and darkness.
@1962Marston@MorrisDemetress She was mocking her own stupid curtsy. It was SELF deprecating. So you misunderstood, perhaps because you sometimes miss nuance -don’t we all?- but why don’t you move on from this? Stressing over something, especially something that didn’t happen, is such a waste. Maybe move on.
