Qasim Rashid, Esq. @ @QasimRashid • 7h To recap. Democrats lost: -White House -US Senate -Electoral College -Governors Races -Popular Vote -Are on cusp of losing the House If anyone really thinks its because 51% of the country is xenophobic—& not because Dems ignored their own base—it explains why Dems lost so badly.
In the 1960s, the GOP used Operation Eagle Eye to challenge voters of color. Now, Operation Eagle Eye is back — on steroids — with the help of AI technology.

Yes, bleak.
You cannot buy the revolution. You cannot make the revolution. You can only be the revolution. It is in your spirit, or it is nowhere.

It is estimated that we spend $322,000 for each enemy we kill, while we spend in the so-called War on Poverty in America only about $53 for each person classified as "poor." And much of that $53 goes for salaries of people who are not poor...

A photo of a seat in an Alaska Airlines 737 Max showing all the black padding ripped off, there's a huge but neat hole in the plane showing a car outside parked on the tarmac. The oxygen masks are deployed.
