Auntie Flex,

What’s the most American headline you’ve read this week?

My reason for moving: When Trump got in, I said to Mr. Laffy, "He'll now have the courts. We can't overcome a lot of that." This is what I was referring to:

#BREAKING: #SCOTUS upholds #SouthCarolina's congressional map, reversing a lower court decision that struck down the map for racial gerrymandering.

The Court also makes it harder to fight against future racial gerrymandering. https://www.democracydocket.com/cases/south-carolina-redistricting-challenge/

I REFUSE to accept that nothing can be done about the obvious corruption on the Supreme Court. I DO NOT ACCEPT THIS and it MUST CHANGE.

Republican Rep. Jon Stone threatened to kill fellow police officers in a shooting spree, and murder his chief after raping the chief’s wife and children, all while he was already under scrutiny for his inappropriate relationship with a teen girl

Stone, a twice-elected Republican state representative for Claremont, has been fighting to keep those reports secret for years.

It occurred to me today that even though over 1 million Americans have died from Covid, we have no national memorial or national day day of mourning and how the powers that be have decided to memory hole the whole thing and how wrong this is.

"Political reporters have given Nikki Haley pass after pass after pass all these years. She lies and misleads and obfuscates and flip-flops, and still, they do it... Why? Because she’s nice to them at cocktail parties, and they need access from a Republican with her influence. Lucy and Charlie Brown. Every time. Without fail."

We had 4 years to get ready for this

We spent them saying "Merrick Garland is coming!" and "lock him up!"

How's that going?

#HannahDreier got a #Pulitzer for her MYT article revealing how child labor laws are being flouted in, among other states, Alabama.

In textile factories, meat plants & roofing companies, immigrant children work in clear violation of the law, & few folks seem that concerned, especially at the #Alabama Attorney General’s office.

Marshall, it seems, is more preoccupied with what’s happening in the Big Apple than who’s working for Fruit of the Loom.

The Russian government warned Ukraine that Ukraine’s new fleet of F-16 fighter jets will be treated as a "nuclear-capable threat" by Russia, and “nuclear-capable threat” is also the nickname Putin has given his tallywacker.

Report

"If the ICC was allowed to do this... why would they not come after America?”

said Speaker Mike Johnson after the court called for arrest warrants for Israel’s president.

“We cannot allow this to stand."

"Target Israel and we will target you,” US Senators warned the ICC in April, “you have been warned.”

Report (reposted)

"War Criminals: IDF Strikes Rafah After Hamas Agrees to Cease-Fire"

"Why?" asked Israeli lawmaker Ofer Cassif. "Because killing Palestinians is more important for the Israeli government than saving Israelis."

On Monday, the IDF launched long-awaited strikes on Rafah, despite Hamas publicly confirming it agreed to mediators' cease-fire proposal (see below).

Americans believe the economy is bad and blame Biden because of THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA.

aral, 22 days ago to Israel

Joe Biden could still turn this around and not lose to Trump by defunding Israel’s genocide of the Palestinian people. If he doesn’t, there will be only person to blame for Joe Biden losing to Trump in six months and that’s Joe “I am a Zionist” Biden.
