@ZLabe The info is there but we collectively are unable to act in a timely fashion. So goes it for Hot House Earth and Custodianship by Humanity. 😢 I predict, but hope I’m wrong that #TheGreatFilter is about to slap us down. https://www.astronomy.com/science/the-great-filter-a-possible-solution-to-the-fermi-paradox/

Last month shattered the previous record for the hottest July global sea surface temperature on record 🥴

https://vidanewspaper.com/2023/08/05/trumps-niece-pulls-no-punches-brands-former-president-a-traitor/ If you examine #BadBoyDonny, it does take much observation to realized that the only loyalty the mental patient has is to himself, everything else is secondary. At best he has momentarily alliances with people he can use and that includes the Millions of his Suckers who have latched onto his hallucinogenic teats hoping his oozing putrescence will grant them some personal advantage in their bewildered lives.

@georgetakei Besides making many of us queasy gazing upon his visage, and nauseous listening to his pathetic ravings, we know corruption and self serving has always been out there among the populace. But arguably #BadBoyDonny though his mental illness, delusions of grandeur and huge a-hole shaped mouth when it’s spewing hate and nonsense, he has single handedly done more to exacerbate the severity of the condition than any other human being alive…😳

"I blame the father. Frederick Trump raised his children, one in particular, to believe that the world was divided into winners and losers and that there was no greater crime than to fall into the latter category. …
Referring to the second article of the US constitution, [Donald Trump] told an audience of teenagers in 2019, “I have an Article II, where I have the right to do whatever I want as president.”

@Huntn00
And the fact that the schools had to pay a $50,000 'fine' to NOT be named after treasonous enslavers tells you everything you need to know about how little progress has been made since then.

@tultican Florida GOP win the pathetic Mr Universal Rationalization, Excuse-
Making, Have Your Cake and Eat It Too, Fool’d Ya Competition. What they forget to say, it was some immoral White Men started it, fought a war to preserve it, and a different group of citizens ended it. A lot of us have slave owning ancestors in the US, why not just say it was a horrible thing to do, I’m sorry an ancestor did this to you, and I’ll stop or ensure the blocking of equality/opportunity is stopped?

"Even if he didn’t break any laws, Kushner crossed every conceivable ethical line in his relationship with MBS by defending him inside the White House when he was under international fire for the murder of Saudi dissident and Post contributing columnist Jamal Khashoggi —…
” At the same time, Trump sold $8 billion in weapons to Saudi Arabia after vetoing congressional resolutions to block the sale.
If the $2 billion wasn’t payback, what was it?

Forcing Oklahomans to fund religious teachings with their tax dollars is not religious freedom. It is state-sponsored religion, which violates the Oklahoma Constitution and the Oklahoma Charter Schools Act. @americansunited
@Incognitim “Our heritage!” BS, erected in the 50s to counter the Civil Rights movement and equal rights. Human bondage and racism for $$, such a proud heritage to promote. Who are these people? 🤔 How about instead some Slavery Museums to illustrate the single largest failure of this Republic and say we are truly sorry for what our ancestors did to you?

The schools, named for Civil War figures (chosen in part by groups like the Daughters of the Confederacy), opened at the height of the civil rights movement in the 1950s & ’60s.
In 2017, Alabama passed the Memorial Preservation Act, which outlaws renaming, removing, or altering memorial buildings more than 40 years old, protecting numerous Confederate-themed monuments.
Montgomery officials paid a $50k fine to institute the new names & mascots at the local high schools.
