See, this is bullshit for several reasons, but first, soldiers choose their beneficiaries. There was probably a good reason for Sgt. Dillon Baldridge to leave his dad off that form. 

Came here to say this. Do NOT thank him till the cheque clears. Maybe wait a month or two to spend it, because if there was one person who would ask for it back? It would be D Trump.

“I’m still speechless,” Jessie Baldridge told ABC11. “We are so moved and grateful, and we promise to use the money to honor Dillon’s legacy.”

There’s also the small matter of the sender’s long history of stiffing everyone he owes - big or small - and then bragging about it…

“The check has been in the pipeline since the President’s initial call with the father. The President has personally followed up several times to ensure that the check was being sent. As stated earlier, the check has been sent.”

The company, Whitefish, also has ties with Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke.

Racism isn’t a costume.

They shouldn’t face any consequences?! You mean at all?! Why the fuck not??

Fuck that. Ruin their lives. Black children lives are ruined everyday or more like every hour on the day for the stupid mistakes that they make sooooo. I have no sympathy, fuck them up. This SHOULD follow them forever.

They shouldn’t face any consequences?! You mean at all?! Why the fuck not?? I mean, you don’t have to ruin their lives, but you can at least put them in some sort of program where they can learn detailed history about groups like Nazis and the Klan, and how they can empathize with members of groups targeted by them,…

Infestation...INFESTATION?

Bianca Del Rio concurs...

I totally agree. Probably the mom who was hoping to dump her kid off on the nanny for $20 bucks and a to go bag from Pappadeaux’s and got firmly smacked the hell down for her ignorance.

Whadd’ya wanna bet that the source of the letter was a neighbor that actually lives in the same building?

Also, mad respect to the bus matron for doing their job and making the kids’ safety their priority.

“He might have been successful, were it not for the bus’ matron, who stopped him and threatened to call the cops if he didn’t leave.”

Yeah—I live in Queens and my 10-year-old now walks home from school by herself, freaks me out to hear stuff like this. Glad he was never able to do any physical harm.

While I can’t be of much help finding her as I live on the other several states away, my thoughts are with Selina and her family. She seems like a sweet young lady, and I’m sorry that she may be in a situation that’s beyond her understanding and that might put her in distress. I’m wishing for her to come home…
