Folks.. look this up.. I grew up under the ever watchful whiteman eye of J. Edgar Hoover.. who STILL has his name ensconced on the building (!) RULED like a dictator over the FBI.. for decades, through several presidencies. Please know that our history is messy. We want a better day? We better know our true past.
But what about dismantling the mobsters?. italians/irish.. other "immigrants.." were getting in on the big whiteman profits, and FBI was tasked with ending the.. "competition.."
@Iveyjanette1 @Tarnagh
*sigh* I feel ya, sis! Tough days ahead.. looks like you are gearing up for them.
@carmen They could still release it.
@Bbk420 wise words here.
@AskTheDevil look... they gonna do what they gonna do. So we gotta get up, not wait.
@AskTheDevil
Not at all. No more ruminating and whining and worrying and starting all over again. I ain't waitin' for nobody to tell me how to be free. How is working to end this once and for all in 24 months waiting on anything?
@DevinY1 good news. 24 months to fix this.. and the magats will make this SO BAD, that we will again rise. for now, be the resistance.. how? Begin by donating to the ACLU and other legally challenging every step in the courts.

What burns my beans..
Is the "sudden" realization that we are a "divided country." When have we EVER been NOT divided? Oh.. now I get it. If you were raised in a totally white segregated neighborhood, branded at birth by white male doctors, educated in "good" schools where you were taught a "race based" white education, you were raised to have no idea. If that is you.. you have some homework to do.
@Museek yes. we have a constitutional crisis.

I wonder how many here even *get* this post reply? This took me back to one of my fave songs of all time, from "the Band's Visit." I knew from a child Omar Sharif and Umm Kulthum. If you do not know these artists, check them out on youtube.. anywhooo.. Here is this song.. hauntingly powerfully relevant to this day.

I say.. let the magats have at it. They will face a legalwall in courts, and will be stalled for 24 months.. What does get through.. let the white dumclucks suffer.. They will ruin things SO BAD that it will force a rout in 23 months.. if NOT, at least we know this democracy thing.. is truly over. Then we know how to rebuild for the future. Me? I am preparing for a really rough 2 years ahead. I mean survivalist level.
@Pat_Walrond ..even worse.. my violent greedy arrogance and ignorance deserves MORE than you! And gets power over you.
@tgraph52 ... and?? That won't change a thing. Hecks.. it is so bad, that even white folks who voted for *rump will also suffer.
@tgraph52 None. It is designed for non-whites.. always has been.
@JGSchaeffer Thanks for this.. me, too! A new day with our personal star.
@tgraph52 can we insist that it includes musk and melania?
