Excellent new series on Netflix (9 episodes)
"Turning Point: The Bomb and the Cold War"
Chronicles the creation of the atomic bomb & spread of nuclear arms over following decades... continues past dissolution of Soviet Union to Vladimir Putin's ascent + Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Here's a thought...
Make Trains & Banks safer and stop the harassment of Trans kids and Women's Reproductive Rights
The reason why many of you are just hearing about #TyreNichols is that his death does not fit the narrative of the “unarmed black man killed by racist white police officers” headline.
Tyre Nichols was beaten to death by 5 black #Memphis cops during a routine traffic stop.
Reports are that they beat Tyre Nichols until bones were protruding out of his skin. The victim was unrecognizable to his family.
This behaviour cannot be reformed.
Like #TheKennedy’s seemingly cursed by nonstop tragedy ⎯ JFK, RFK, JFK Jr ⎯ what occurs to me first is what #Priscilla has endured as the matriarch of #ThePresley’s ⎯ watching #Elvis die, then watching her grandson die two years ago, then watching her only daughter die.

The former President's Company was convicted of 17 Felonies, for running a "Decades long tax fraud scheme"... It got the maximum corporate penalty of a $1.6 million dollar fine.
Its CFO continued to draw an annual salary of over a million dollars throughout his trial. He was handed a "Generous" Severance Package on his way to jail, not prison, to serve a whopping 5 month stint for the 15 Felonies he was convicted of.... probably be out two months.
Tell me more about, "And justice for all"

It’s overwhelmingly cynical, it accomplishes nothing, and it’s gotten them nowhere.
The chaos consuming them now ⎯ like the psychopath Santos literally standing on the house floor, someone they’ve done nothing about ⎯ is what they deserve, as the dangerous #MAGA radicals comprising their pathetic ranks hold them hostage, and America loses.
They are literally #TheSwamp ⎯ all of them!
On this 2nd anniversary of the #Jan6 insurrection, I am absolutely certain that #Republicans have no legislative agenda, no healthcare plan, no infrastructure plan, no energy plan, no climate change plan, no technology plan, no foreign policy plan, no nothing!
All they care about is abortion, censorship, wealth retention, oppressive religion, xenophobia, controlling women, unbending gun rights, industry deregulation, the war industrial complex, stoking fear, and protecting polluters.
