DON'T LOOK AWAY.

The cop groped her and when she tried to break away, she was beaten while standing still.

THIS IS AN ATTEMPT TO CRUSH DISSENT LIKE A DICTATORSHIP

Here is the source where I found the video.

I mean, let's get real:

Under Obama/Biden/Pelosi, America caged migrant children and droned babies to smithereens. The NRA remained dominant. Dems borrowed a GOP-lite healthcare plan instead of going for single payer. And they stood by while McConnell stole a SCOTUS seat...
The same Dems who pretend to oppose the GOP gave Bush the power to slaughter Iraqis. Obama and Biden continued Bush's worst civil liberties transgressions, including indefinite detention and extrajudicial killing. Dems then spent a decade rehabilitating Bush's image.
Pelosi and her colleagues have spent the Trump presidency passing his key bills, empowering him, spitting on working people and then engaging in pathetic performative gestures like tearing speeches.

And now a serial groper who helped destroy #MeToo is the prospective nominee.

CONFESSION (3)

I recognized #Bernie's courage in using the word "revolution" so openly and I've gravitated more and more toward those who reject the corrupt, racist system that oppresses working people while enriching and empowering the rich and powerful...
