It's much easier to say the Civil War was about money, when your ancestors weren't the currency. x.com/jenn_abrams/status/856…

So… you all are seeing the same thing I am regarding Lee and Cate’s shared history in #MonarchLegacyofMonsters , right!?
And that VERY obvious twist / reveal that’s coming by the season’s end.
I mean, they’re not even trying to hide it!!

On top of that, it WAS a Stand Your Ground case in that the law was cited and part of the defense. He just didn’t ask for immunity under SYG. kktv.com/2022/02/27/stand-yo…

How about you tweet and remember the ppl you are tweeting to and about are human beings, like you. If you have a question ask it, but I won’t engage with your tone. Come correct or don’t come at all.

@jonathanrjones @nadzhamz @queenasookkim @brettmyers @ByNinaMartin @MaryamSaleh @Al_Letson How about getting your fact checker, Nikki Frick to do her job right. Stand Your Ground didn't apply and was moot to George Zimmerman, as he was mounted and couldn't retreat.

Construction of I95 in Miami required the forcible relocation of over 12,000 residents—nearly 100% of them black. Using eminent domain, the gov't seized buildings across the heart of Miami's black community in Overtown, offering owners well below market rate—and renters nothing.

The frontrunner in Jacksonville's special election for sheriff, T.K. Waters, is registered to vote in Nocatee. But he doesn't actually live there.
Could the DeSantis-endorsed candidate for Jacksonville sheriff have committed voter fraud?

‘JSO only solves about 1 in 3 murders…yet broadcasts an eagerness to enforce petty laws like pedestrian violations and…playing music too loudly—rules that erode public trust in law enforcement, waste time, and turn cops into glorified security guards.’

Agree with this thread but w/ a caveat. Nothing scared America. Except maybe a gun…

It was disturbing to see lawmakers celebrating the removal of rights from Americans. To see them fist-pumping and hollering in the House chamber. This is a sacred space. The same room where the 19th Amendment passed giving rights to women to vote. 4/11

This. It’s the insidious nature of white supremacy. RS has been exposed and now he wants a rebrand. Do not give him an inch, because a year from now his redemption story will be everywhere while he continues to be the same dangerous racist.

.@TexasTribune published our latest investigation into the nonprofit True the Vote, which raised millions off of false claims of massive voter fraud. It’s never shown the evidence. It also engaged in a series of red flag transactions to insiders texastribune.org/2022/06/14/…
