The lawyer for the family spoke earlier this week and used the phrase “human piñata”.

They beat Tyre Nichols to death. It took him 2 days to die.

This is plain evil.

This cannot be reformed. We must hold police accountable for their actions.

"My past is an armor
I cannot take off."

This is why we need poets and writers. To put into words what we can't.

ON this date in 1784 - In a letter to his daughter, Benjamin Franklin expressed unhappiness over the eagle as the symbol of America.

He wanted the symbol to be the turkey.

Fellow inventors and statesmen, Bun Man and Mr Purple, offered Ben solace.

Bun told him "Don't worry, the turkey will be used to honor American ingenuity."

And lo and behold, the Corvette was born in the 1950s and to this day is still called 'The plastic turkey for the mill honkies'.

Jim Hightower, it's complicated

But wait -- the corporate greed doesn't stop there. In the past decade, this greedy consortium of rich wage suppressors has devised a diabolical scheme to make restaurant workers pay for the industry's lobbying campaigns to hold down wages! The Association bought an outfit that provides hokey food safety training to restaurant workers, then it lobbied to get California, Florida, Illinois and Texas and other states to require...

that all employees not only undergo the silly online training course, but to also make each worker pay a $15 fee for the training.

Kevin McCarthy kicked Adam Schiff & Eric Swalwell off the House Intelligence Committee because he’s worried about their “integrity.”

How come you’re not worried about the “integrity” of Kitara Ravache, Marge Sporkfoot, Gym Jordan, Rapey McForehead, or BoBo?

Disingenuous clown.

First really good snowfall here in a couple of years. It's supposed to continue until tomorrow with more coming this weekend.

Seeing people come to buy fish and handing the owner, money, this cat went out and got a leaf to pay for her fish. On the first day, the owner of the shop thought this was very cute, so he gave her a small fish. Now everyday this cat comes in to buy a fish with a leaf.

Michigan parents/voters, be waryof this Great Schools Initiative Operation Opt-Out. It's extremist parent orgs teaming with the Thomas More Society to effectively ban language/speech about sexuality, gender, and social justice in public schools.

They plan mass bureaucratic chaos in MI Public Schools soon, followed by harassing lawsuits.

Please read and share this link with Michigan fam/friends who aren't too far gone into the Kool-aid.

The has identified many people who incited violence at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, but it still needs your help to bring others to justice. If the man in this photo looks familiar, submit a tip at tips.fbi.gov or 1-800-CALL-FBI, and mention photo 234-AFO.

Ban assault rifles NOW! These are military style weapons of war with no place in civilian life! At least 10 dead from a mass shooting in Monterey Park! This is a vibrant AAPI majority community. I was there a couple weeks ago. This is so sad!
