Yeeeeeeeeah, I didn’t wanna be the one to point that out, but...

This is the last straw.

if you ban my flag you are stepping on my second Amendment right

“This is by far the fastest that we’ve ever charged a police officer.”

Black people love commerce. Corporations and businesses ought to see that systemic racism is the problem. Black people were happily spending their hard earned money before the police killed a man in broad day light. Perhaps corporations should give their lobbying dollars to policies and politicians that do not…

If only these people would peacefully protest. Oh wait....

In our town, it was the white protestors setting fires, breaking windows, and looting, and the black activists asking them to stop, esp. when the black=clad, balaclava-wearing white dudes were trying to destroy local, minority-owned businesses.

“No offense to electoral politics, but—actually, wait. No. Full offense to electoral politics!!!! Telling people to respond to state-sponsored racist violence by registering to vote so that they can participate in an election five months from now is fucking useless, Gagá!”

Is anyone still acting surprised Rowling hates Transpeople? It’s been an open secret for some years now.

In those cases, Klobuchar could have brought…

Amy Klobuchar needs to take several seats. Kamala Harris was punished for her prosecutorial record. Klobuchar was criticized but she skated by and continue to run until the last legs of primary. Meanwhile, Ms. Minnesota nice was sitting on a powder keg of state sanctioned police brutality. She does not get to have a…

I’ve read where Al Franken contacted her to tell her to stop treating her staff like garbage, as a lot of them were his former staffers, who contacted him about her behavior. The general takeaway from the conversations between Franken and his former staff is that the word, “Nuts” came up a lot.
