Tried to tell y’all. And on top of that, they can’t *really* tell you what you think they can. 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️
Every black American who gave away your precious DNA and think you now know where in Africa your people come from — understand, they can’t really tell you that. DNA doesn’t work like that. But, now you might cause some family member to be arrested.
LISTEN TO ME. I WILL NOT STEER YOU WRONG. No profit-seeking company is running your DNA for $59 without a catch. Come. On.
The other really terrible things is those of you submitting your DNA are allowing them to create profiles of those of us who haven’t because we share DNA with family members.

In all seriousness, I know it’s fun to joke about Candace Owens, but her being given a platform to speak on the same level as @KristenClarkeJD at the hate crimes hearing is a mockery and disrespectful of the very real violence black Americans have always faced in this country.
Candace Owens has no credentials whatsoever to speak on hate crimes. She is not a historian, a sociologist, a civil rights attorney. She is a blogger. Yet she got a seat next to the head of one of the most prominent and storied civil rights organizations in the nation.
People are dying. People are being intimidated. And some members of the GOP took this as a moment to troll black people. I don’t find it funny at all.

My friends know me *so well.* My cuppeth & spirit runs over. If you’ve spent time with me, you know I have that type of full-throated, head thrown back, mouth wide open laugh. This year, I vow to laugh more, love harder & spend less time on things that get in the way of either
Some of these bourbons I’ve never had — and that’s saying something! Cheers.
Momma, we made it! 😂👊🏽

Devastating.
Nah. The point is that he hired felons.

(1)QARMY🕵So you #think the #QArmy is just a bunch of #people sitting at the #computer doing nothing?

You dont think of us as #DigitalSoldiers?

Do you think we are wasting our #time and not doing anything to help?

If so then please keep reading this #Thread

⬇READ ALL or 🤐⬇
(2)🕵The first thing you have to understand is the #RippleEffect. When you find a #Fact, you share it. Now the #information has a starting point. Everyone is a starting point for someone.

(3)🕵It can take a very long time to find all the facts about something. Hours and hours of digging.

#Imagine if you were being told #lies about everything going on and no one was willing to take time out of their day to #find the #Truth. No #Opposition! No one watching them!⬇

When the #NSA discovered that #Iran may have been buying computer chips from the #UnitedStates routing them through a U.S. ally
&
Potentially supplying them to detonate #bombs against U.S. forces in Iraq & #Afghanistan
It credited so-called economic intelligence with the find.
The solution wasn't a death blow delivered by the #military but rather a new regulation on the export of certain #technologies via the #CommerceDepartment which the #NSA said would end up “saving #American & coalition lives.”

So, I've waded through the Evangelical Alliance's new pastoral "guidelines" for interacting with trans people (ughh, the things I do to expose #transphobic #ciswits to the world), and let's just say it's time to tear this particular sh*t-bag a new hole.

CW: #Transphobia, #ConversionTherapy, #Zucker, #Religiously #driven #zealotry

So, straight off the bat, first page of text, the use of #language is . . . well, yeah, see for yourself:

"It is important to remember that transgender is not simply an issue to be debated;" - p5, #Transformed

*sigh*

When such language gets reinforced by insisting...

#Khashoggi Case Thread: I am going to ‘pin’ this post to use it as an ‘Info Thread’ on the #Khashoggi Case. I am in #Turkey. I’ve been following the case closely and with access to sources & experts here. This is a very ‘sensitive’ criminal case due to ‘Diplomatic Booby Traps’!!!
The Evidence Obtained Outside Cameras will not show any evidence of ‘tempering’ but other than license plates of dozens of diplomatic cars (Many with tinted windows-large trunks) with related time stamp, drivers Info, model/year: Nothing.
#Turkish Intel-Investigative Bodies also have the list of all Diplomatic & Private Saudi & “other significant’ Planes in #Turkey for the period of ‘interest.’ Many of the Target airports have their own security cameras & related evidence.

Know this: I’ve never asked for a dime or been given a dime. I’ve spent more hours than you can imagine sifting through FOIA and clunky government sites. I’ve never peddled theories or tried to tell you how to think, what’s happening tonight is nasty.
Could share DM’s for days embarrassing the hell out of people and they could do the same to me and I’d own every syllable because your word is your honor. Every single person coming after me has a link where you can pay them. SMH.
I don’t do this for money or fame or for n I told you so award and I’m certainly not here to be attacked so if that’s your jam kindly unfollow and go sign up on some bunk ass website that’s collecting your data, or pay to have someone read tweets out loud on YouTube ✌️
