Donald Trump is racing to stop the BBC from getting his financial records. After the network demanded access to his records to determine whether he actually suffered the billions in damages he claims, Trump’s lawyers are now trying to block that evidence from being turned over.
Eddie is a GREAT FOLLOW. His history coverage tells the stories we were NOT TOLD. And this IS Texas. The KKK until I think the early 2000's late 1990's STILL walked to the Capital. THIS IS 100% STILL A PART OF TEXAS. 🤬

Another horrifying lynching was of a black pregnant woman, Mary Turner, who was lynched in 1918 in Georgia because she spoke about how the white men in the south killed her husband. I could not finish reading that. The evilness of murdering a grieving pregnant woman and unborn child.
It's a fallacy to think that the Trump regime is pro-military. it's pro-violence and pro-stealing-from-foreign-countries, but it's anti-military-families. As Trump has demonstrated, he thinks soldiers are "suckers" and "losers."
AP Exclusive: Trump's immigration crackdown has detained more than 50 military spouses and parents
An Associated Press investigation reveals that President Donald Trump’s administration has detained dozens of parents and spouses of active-duty U.S. troops.

Also, Lucky Loser should be required reading.
Every American should be forced to learn about this in school. And at an age young enough for it to shock the conscience.

It will make you ill, but every US Citizen should be required to learn of this incident. Ignorance demands your participation. It is your duty to refuse.

1992- Assistant Director of Health for a mid-sized city, we had apartment buildings where everyone had to be tested and treated for drug-resistant TB. Infected by 1 case. How do we treat and prevent the spread of a deadly bacterium in an entire community when people won’t open the door out of fear?
Wow thanks again Eddie. I wish I could say I'm surprised but nothing about our countrys' history does anymore. Truly unbelievable - but religion!
I call bullshit! The whole town got together to tell the same lie to justify killing a young black man. Meanwhile, Myrtle’s real killer got off free. And white ppl realized black folks make a good scapegoat for white ppls crimes. Smgdh

More AMERICAN history that racist, bigoted White people DON'T want you to know about. Lynchings and White mobs of angry men *happened frequently throughout American history. (*Correction: they're still happening) Racism is wrong Racism is evil. Racism is HATE. #stophate #sheshed #Joy2028

My island is filled with joy, laughter, love, kindness, generosity, and grace. It gets bigger and more beautiful with each smile I give to a stranger. It gets bigger with every act of humanity. Racists have no ground to stand on. They only have borrowed hate. bsky.app/profile/redl...
I had hugs from good friends tonight & that made a difference
