There is one purpose for cops and it’s not to serve and protect. As long as slavery is legal and propping up states the cops will be slave catchers.

The diarrhea lettuce company, Taylor Farms, uses slave labor contracted from the Arizona Dept. of Corrections. The backbreaking labor is often performed by imprisoned Mexican nationals who would be otherwise ineligble to work in the US. They are paid $1.50 an hour.

The lettuce-producing Taylor Farms was linked to the widespread use of prison labor before its involvement in a cyclospora outbreak.

If history makes you feel ashamed of your race, then maybe your race has done some jackass shit in the past and you should just do better moving forward instead of trying to rewrite the shit. Okay?
We're about a week away from rand paul trying to charge Dr. Fauci with the death of mitch mcconnell...
I know it may be an odd take for non-Kentuckians, but I truly believe this Fauci dog and pony show was aimed directly at Gov. Andy Beshear, as it all relates to Mitch McConnell, and of course R anger at Andy for following Fauci's guidance during Covid. Andy is a presidential prospect.
We are calling on all union members, labor organizations, retirees, working families, and community supporters to stand in solidarity. If you’re able, meet at the union hall at 2:30 PM to carpool. When working people stand together, our voices cannot be ignored. #momsky#sheshed
CBP updated its 2026 device search policy at U.S. borders: • Basic searches: Officers can inspect phones and laptops with no warrant or suspicion. • Advanced searches: Connecting equipment to copy data requires approval, but national security broadens this authority.
Huge news for Arizona! A judge ruled this anti-union measure unconstitutional, so it won't appear on the November ballot. The GOP-backed proposal would have banned collective bargaining for government workers and blocked school districts from supporting union activities. azmirror.com/2026/07/28/a...
Judge: GOP ballot measure aimed at teachers union unconstitutionally guts police, fire unions too

Some good news: Trump's DOJ has finally dropped its baseless prosecution of SEIU California president David Huerta for protesting ICE's brutality. This case should have never gotten this far, but its dismissal reveals how weak Trump truly is. Remember: attacking unions is a hallmark of fascism.

I am very ashamed to live in a country where people will wake up with the terror that the secret police are coming to kidnap them, separate them from their families, and brutalize or even kill them because they are not white.
