    In the span of just two weeks this summer, 20 states across the U.S suffered the costliest string of riots in American history. The damage caused by this “tiny fraction” is estimated at $1 to $2 billion, similar estimates for a Category 1 hurricane. americanmind.org/post/the-riot-…

    .@MichelleObama on BLM riots: Trump is “pinning [violence] on what’s been an overwhelmingly peaceful movement for racial solidarity; it’s true, research backs it up; only a tiny fraction of demonstrations have had any violence at all … What the president is doing is … racist.”

    "America has not been a constitutional republic based on the consent of the governed for years. It has, in fact, been a thinly disguised oligarchy, dominated by ruling class elites in the media, academia, both parties, the bureaucracy, corporations, Silicon Valley..." -Ed Erler

    The Trump Admin accomplished many things, but perhaps most importantly it revealed how deep the rabbit hole now goes: the fight is both within the fed govt & without, & a cancerous corruption has penetrated the core of our political/cultural institutions.

    The 1776 Commission's report may have been taken down within the first few hours of the @JoeBiden administration, with many calling it "racist," but readers are likely to draw the opposite conclusion. We are re-publishing parts of the report here!

    "The ruling class’s hatred of the president, and its efforts to destroy him, were of course a proxy for its desire to destroy what he represents. What he represents is not just the policies it despises, but the people it despises." - @bhweingarten

    The 2020 election is not over. The fight has just begun. This is the moment that decides everything. Republicans must rise to the occasion. This means rallies and protests as well as investigating and ensuring that this election was lawful! americanmind.org/post/the-fight…
