The reason this makes no sense is that the gun violence in Chicago is very much linked to gang activities and drugs. WHAT the hell can the presence of federal troops do to stop or affect that? You’ve got gangs like The Latin Kings who’ve been killing each other for decades, with innocent victims as collateral damage.…

Hahahaha, lookin like Liza Minnelli, that chick at the J.C. Penney  Sephora did her dirty.

“All over the world, they’re talking about Chicago,”

So ironic that you wrote about this topic today. One of my relatives came across this little ditty of a song in an Instagram post. Has an interesting beat to it:

Just want to leave this here, for anyone not understanding how Border Patrol can operate in cities like Portland and Chicago: https://medium.com/@JennBudd9/how-trump-is-using-federal-agencies-to-invade-your-city-77a66070251c

What Trump Wants: To incite violence and hope that lots of LEO’s get hurt or killed. Then he will try the Nixon “bring peace to the streets” strategy.

You had me at hell0:

Boy oh boy this tactic sure is working out well in Portland with all the fed chumps turning tail and hiding. Aparently even the portland based cops arent helping out, great snub.... your move trump, you dicksore you.

I’ll see your Candace, Jason, John, Terry and Sage. And I’ll raise you an OJ, a Cosby and a Tiger Woods. What do the last three have in common? When the shit hit the fan, what did they suddenly discover about themselves (and America)? I guarantee a version of that same fate awaits this “esteemed” quintet as well!…

You’re tying yourself up in logical knots on Obama.

Excellent article, once again.

I can’t fathom why the Atlantic hires John McWhorter when they already have Conor Friedersdorf pretty much covering the same slippery slope beat, just with less emphasis on race. It’s really weird the paths that people take to get to their positions.

+1 for “part time blackness”!

Wow...just wow. And she’s sitting there cheesing like a damn fool.

I have a message for Candace. People don’t hate you because you don’t see yourself as oppressed, they hate you because you are a lying bitch.

“The reason no one fucks with them is not that Black people have stripped them of their Blackness; it’s because we just don’t fuck with liars.”

There is something about John McWhorter that puts him always on the wrong side of any racial issue. It’s the classic case of the English professor who talks to hear himself talk, or that grouchy prof who gets caught up in semantics and will talk uninterrupted for an hour when all you want to do, as a student, is get…

If the Times had any sense of what talent looks like, you’d already have Bari Weiss’s job.

Throw Kanye West in there.
