@SD_Comic_Con Not smooth for me unfortunately. As I was being redirected to the purchasing area right after preview night sold out, I was suddenly returned to the queue with more than an hour wait and, of course, all badges sold out in the meantime. #UtterDevastation

IDK. Seems very practical for #Trump to shore up the African American base he always wanted prior to a future run for a third term (once the Constitution is amended). 😳

The U.S. will give about 50 white South Africans help with housing, groceries, and other needs.

"Jolani doesn't want to confront the Israeli's, he's letting them take massive parts of Syria. He doesn't care. There was a recent Reuters piece with him, amidst sectarian massacres he's basically leading...They asked him about the Israel factor and he said it was 'nonsense.'"

And I STILL can’t get over Tracy Chapman’s “Fast Car” losing out to “Don’t WorryBe Happy” for Record AND Song of Year in 1989. #GRAMMYs

Strong agree. I’m actually tempted to write a review bc I feel compelled to detail why this film succeeded so absolutely. Many kudos to @cordjefferson and a truly inspired cast.

Florida residents now experiencing a significant spike in anxiety with collective memories of mothers shouting “You just wait until your father gets home.”

The Greensboro Massacre of 1979 was filmed live as the Klu Klux Klan murdered 5 people on television and no one was ever convicted. Political violence in America is real. The African American community knows this reality. Take the threats seriously! https://t.co/QCaT6Df9B3

James Ho, the Trump judge in the mifepristone case who said abortions cause “aesthetic injury” to doctors, has close ties to the group that led the case at his court.

Records show Ho’s wife has received speaking fees from the group four years in a row. https://t.co/Rl1tw2oDYt

Same day, two headlines.

The US sent $113 billion to Ukraine in 2022, enough to end homelessness in the US five times over.

This week, Joe Biden asked Congress for an additional $40 billion for Ukraine, much of which will be pocketed by weapons manufacturers.

[Robert (Durden) @realrobdurden]

Joe Biden just announced another $13B to Ukraine. The total is now ~$130B. For that price Americans could have:

Ended Homelessness permanently ($20B)
Universal Pre-K ($35B)
Free Community College ($30B)
Fix all 45k structurally insufficient bridges ($42B)
= $127B
