IT IS A FACT that Our government speaks out for people mistreated around the world while MOST whites people don’t care that our criminal justice system does the same thing at home.
"The largest threat to U.S. national security are U.S. cops. Not ISIS, not Russian hackers, not anyone or anything else."
Cops kill more Americans than Russians or ISIS AND the cost threatens our national security.
In 2020, Homeland Security spent $281m on cyber security
The NYPD ALONE pays that much in civil rights and police abuse legal claims every year
Maybe she’s not anti-cop.
Maybe she just loves her country more than you do.

Some people thought this was a snarky remark, so I'll answer:
A LOT of people thought @BeschlossDC meant OPENLY "violence-prone, racist anti-Semites" striding around the U.S. Capitol as elected members.
But here's your answer.
A thread:
So we won't be here all day, let's start with post-Civil War Congressional members. I'm not picking & choosing. I could easily mention slaveowners like Preston Brooks, who almost clubbed Charles Sumner to death ON THE SENATE FLOOR for an anti-slavery speech
That's too easy.

Why?
Well, here's how he explained it to THE UNITED STATES SENATE:
Every major bank in the US has been sued for mortgage discrimination and a study that included every mortgage in America found that Banks charge higher interest rates to nonblack customers
Have you heard that one about coming together and political unity after an insurrection?
A thread:
One time, after a contentious election, there was a group of angry white people. Because of their "economic anxiety," they refused to acknowledge the president. But THEIR economic anxiety was really white supremacy.
NO, I'm not talking about 2020. This was the election of 1860.
Lincoln wanted to ignore these racist idiots but—I don't know if you've heard about this—racists aren't known for their "letting-shit-go" qualities.
Very few people who own muskets and handlebar mustaches are described as "pretty chill dudes."
Everyone has seen this clip of him recalling every play in a game.
This ain’t studying film. This is just instant recall.
And the interesting thing about it is that she didn’t ask him about the last few seconds at the end of the game. It’s just a random point in 48-minute game
He does the same thing in this clip. But if you listen closely, he’s going to make a reference to something ANOTHER player did in ANOTHER GAME from ANOTHER YEAR
