Trump Administration Shatters the Record for Total US Airstrikes in Somalia in a single year. US has Been Bombing at a Record Pace as Massa Media Conceals the Story

The Trump administration has shattered the record for total US airstrikes in Somalia in a single calendar year, as the US has been bombing the country at a record pace with virtually no American media coverage.

US Africa Command told Antiwar.com in an email on Tuesday that its forces launched a total of nine airstrikes in a recent two-week campaign against the ISIS affiliate in Somalia’s northeastern Puntland region, bringing the total number of US airstrikes in Somalia this year to 68.

The previous record for US airstrikes in Somalia in a single year was set at 63 in 2019 during President Trump’s first term. The current Trump administration is set to significantly outpace the 2019 bombing campaign as it continues to provide air support for local Puntland forces fighting the ISIS affiliate in the northeast and for US-backed government forces fighting al-Shabaab in southern Somalia.

Mississippi Declares Public Health Emergency Over Infant Death Rates – Black Infants are More than Twice as Likely as White infants to Die before their 1st birthday. Are Vaccines the Cause?

From [HERE] The State of Mississippi has declared a "public health emergency" after recent data show that the infant mortality rate in the State is now the highest it has been in 10 years. As the CBS article notes, this rise in infant deaths is not limited to the State of Mississippi, but is happening all over the country, and it is primarily happening with Black infants.

In Mississippi, there were 9.7 infant deaths for every 1,000 live births in 2024, which is almost double the most recent national average of 5.5 deaths per 1,000, according to the state Department of Health. The state has long struggled with high infant mortality rates. Since 2014, there have been 3,527 babies who have died before their first birthday in the state, public health officials said. [MORE]

Cindy Rahman, CEO and president of March of Dimes, described Mississippi’s declaration of a public health emergency as a "painful reminder" of a U.S. crisis in maternal and infant health.

“Although Mississippi accounts for less than 1% of U.S. births, the state accounts for more than 1.6% of all infant deaths. These losses should be a wake-up call to the nation," Rahman said, adding that March of Dimes supports officials’ efforts to improve birth outcomes in the state.  

Black infants in Mississippi face the nation's highest death rates. In 2024, more than 15 deaths per 1,000 live births were recorded among Black babies — up 24% in one year over already higher-than-average rates, CNN said. [MORE]

What do public health "authorities" believe is the cause of this increase in infant deaths among Black children? "The leading causes of infant death in Mississippi include congenital malformations, premature birth, low birthweight, and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. (SIDS) Disparities remain stark — Black infants in Mississippi are more than twice as likely as White infants to die before their first birthday, and recent state data show those racial gaps have widened."

"Sudden Infant Death Syndrome" or "SIDS" is just the code name the medical system uses for mostly infant vaccine deaths, since they obviously will never blame infant mortality on vaccines. It has been known for over 2 decades now, including with top scientists at the CDC, that vaccines, and in particular infant vaccines, cause far more damage to Black people than they do to the rest of the population in the United States.

What Are The Real Causes of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS)? Why Are Vaccines Excluded?

Here is another report published in 2014 by Neil Z. Miller explaining that the CDC does not even have a classification of death due to vaccines:

CDC Lists 131 Causes of Death For A Child but Omits Vaccines

While it is good that the infant mortality rate in the U.S. is finally getting some coverage in the Corporate News media, their “solutions” are obviously funded by their advertisers in Big Pharma, as they recommend the very things that have caused the problem of SIDS in the U.S.: more medical services to supply more vaccines and drugs.

To support their claims, they point out that medical care in the rural south is not as prevalent as in more affluent areas of the U.S.

But when it comes to sticking needles into the tiny bodies of infants, there are no shortages anywhere in the U.S., as it can be done in any local drug store on the corner of every town and city in the U.S., as well as in clinics right in the public schools.

Even churches now can function as vaccine clinics, as we saw during COVID.

In 2014, Dr. William Thompson of the CDC, who was one of three top researchers at the CDC who published a study in 2004 that was supposed to “prove” that vaccines do not cause autism, admitted to Dr. Brian Hooker that they committed fraud and withheld some data from that study that showed black boys were more susceptible to autism after receiving the MMR vaccines, than non-Black children.

Bignorant Trump Touted the Homicide-free streak in DC as “the first time that’s taken place in years,” but DC went 16 days without a Murder Earlier this year

A man was fatally shot in Southeast Washington just after midnight Tuesday, snapping D.C.’s 12-day stretch without a homicide, an unusually long respite from violence for which President Donald Trump claimed credit at a news conference Monday.

“In the last 11 days we’ve had no murders and that’s the first time that’s taken place in years actually, years,” Trump said Monday morning, though city crime statistics show otherwise.

D.C. went 16 days without a homicide earlier this year, from Feb. 24 to March 13. But even 10 days without a killing is rare in the city, occurring once this year before Trump’s takeover of D.C. police and once in January of last year. The 16-day streak earlier this year was the longest in at least six years.

Members of the Trump administration have echoed the false claim that D.C. has not experienced 11 days without a killing in recent history, and House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-Louisiana) took to social media Monday to say that 11 days straight with no homicides in D.C. should “top the list” of reasons Trump deserves a Nobel Peace Prize.

“No police officer working in the city can remember a time in their lives when there has been no murders,” Deputy White House Chief of Staff Stephen Miller said during the news conference Monday. “We’ve checked the records, no one can even find a record of being murder-free as long as we’ve been murder-free under President Trump’s leadership.” [MORE]

The US Government has a "compelling interest" to shorten your life expectancy. COVID Shots are "the least restrictive" way to further that interest.

In every crime investigation, it is important to identify the Motive, the Means and the Opportunity. I have covered the means and opportunity of the covid democide (and broader CDC vaccine schedule democide) very extensively - covid is an ongoing global military mass killing/injuring campaign. This post discusses the motives and additional “means” built into the “illegal” (unconstitutional) US communicable disease related law, starting over a century ago. While many things have been said about the “global elites, etc” and their desire to control the population, this post is a bit more down to earth look at the immediate “compelling interest” that motivates the US Government to shorten the lifespan of the US population, despite economic growth theories to the contrary.

This post is based on my analysis (with help from Katherine Watt) of the recently circulated letter sent by the HHS’s Office of Civil Rights to West Virginia Health Department. The beginning of the letter sounds like HHS is warning WVHD that if they keep violating religious freedom of West Virginians in regard to vaccinations, the federal funding the WV receives (in part to enforce the violation of the religious freedom and enforce the full CDC vax schedule) is somehow jeopardized. That’s a head scratcher, I know. When you get to p. 2 it becomes less confusing: [MORE]

Lawsuit Filed Over Blendon Township Police Murder of Ta'Kiya Young: 7 Month Pregnant Black Woman Shot Through the Windshield as She Slowly Drove Toward White Cop, Posed No Threat

Two years after Ta'Kiya Young was a black woman who was shot and killed by a Blendon Township police officer, the officer's murder case remains unresolved.

Sunday was the second anniversary of Young's death. Last week, her family filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Officer Connor Grubb.

Young, 21, was shopping at a Kroger on Sunbury Road when an employee accused her of stealing alcohol and flagged down two nearby officers.

• Body camera footage showed the officers approaching her car and telling her to get out, with Grubb standing in front and pointing a gun.

• Young then accelerated forward toward Grubb, who fired a shot that struck her in the chest. She died after being transported to St. Ann's Hospital.

• Young was pregnant, and her unborn daughter, due that November, did not survive.

Nearly a year later, Grubb was indicted by a Franklin County grand jury on counts of murder, involuntary manslaughter and felonious assault.

• He pleaded not guilty, posted a $20,000 bond and was on paid administrative leave until this summer.

Two years after the shooting, Grubb has still not stood trial.

• His first trial date was set for last month, but a judge accepted his defense's request to delay.

• It's now scheduled for Nov. 3 in Franklin County Common Pleas Court after a judge denied a request to move it.

The wrongful death suit alleges Grubb's "reckless and intentional conduct" violated Young's rights and caused her "preventable" death.

• The suit also names the Kroger Corporation and an unidentified Kroger employee as defendants.

• "There was no immediate threat to any officer, no weapon found, and no justification for the use of deadly force," the suit reads. "Ms. Young was executed for a minor and unverified shoplifting allegation, a tragic and inexcusable example of police misconduct and abuse of power."

Dogmatic Simpleton Jeanine Pirro Wants to Prosecute “Some” 12-year-olds as Adults in DC (so long as They are Black)

Jeanine Pirro is A ZEALOT ADVOCATE. Ironically, ELITE LIBERALS HAVE BEEN TRYING TO DO THIS FOR YEARS.

ACCORDING TO FUNKTIONARY:

zeal – energy that compels, encourages and embraces a continuous momentum of change, investing in the flow of the current, rather than resisting it. 2) energy that gravitates towards letting go, rather than holding on. Zeal is that which is fit for wise men and women but is found most commonly in fools, ideologues, and dogmatic simpletons. (See: “Letting-Go”)

Zealot – one who suffers from the lot of being shackled with unthinking patriotic or religious dogma. 2) one with fire (heat, passion) without light (wisdom and overstanding). A zealot is one who indiscriminately misapplies or abuses zeal.

From [HERE] D.C.’s new top prosecutor, U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro, is seeking more authority to prosecute young people as adults in D.C.’s court system. Amid pressure from the White House to bring down crime, Pirro told the News4 I-Team she wants to prosecute suspects as young as 12 as adults.

Pirro zeroed in quickly on the idea that she didn’t have enough tools when it comes to prosecuting young people. In a sit-down interview, the I-Team asked if she believes the D.C. Council will give her those tools.

“No, and, in fact, what I look to do is to amend some of the outrageous, pro-defendant, anti-victim laws that have been passed,” she said.

Pirro spoke about “young punks going out assaulting people, shooting people.”

“The time for coddling young people – 14, 15, 16, 17 – is over. And it's time that we lowered the age of criminal responsibility,” she said.

Pirro said she thinks efforts to rehabilitate young people are “great” but “there's got to be consequences. There's got be deterrence. There's got to be punishments,” she said. “We got 12 and 13-year-olds who are trying to break into a car while a woman is in it, threatening her, telling her ‘Open the door’ while her boyfriend's getting the hell kicked out of him.”

She was referencing the attempted carjacking case involving former DOGE employee Edward Coristine, her office said.

D.C. law would prevent Pirro from prosecuting 12 and 13-year-olds as adults. The I-Team asked, would she want to prosecute a 12-year-old as an adult?

“Sure. I have. As a DA, I have. To me, age is a context. It doesn't determine what the consequence should be. Hey, in criminal court, we can give you rehabilitation. A judge can do all that. He can give your probation. But there's gotta be a record. There's gotta an accessible record. And there's got to be accountability. And right now there is not,” she said. [MORE]

Israel Bombs Hospital, Murders Journalists, Medics, Dozens more Across Gaza

From [HERE] Israel has struck Nasser Hospital in the south of the Gaza Strip, killing at least 21 people, including five journalists, as well as medics and rescue workers, in the latest deliberate attack on civilians and the besieged enclave’s decimated health system.

Monday’s attack, which killed journalists who worked for Al Jazeera, the Reuters and Associated Press (AP) news agencies, and others, was among the deadliest of a multitude of Israeli strikes that have targeted both hospitals and media workers over the course of the nearly two-year genocidal assault.

It comes as Israel widens its offensive to heavily populated areas and urban centres, including Gaza City, increasing the already heightened peril for the population.

The first strike of the “double-tap” attack, where one strike is followed by a second soon after, hit the top floor of a building at Nasser Hospital. Minutes later, as journalists and rescuers in orange vests rushed up an external staircase, a second projectile hit, said Dr Ahmed al-Farra, the head of the paediatrics department.

Among the journalists killed were Al Jazeera’s Mohammad Salama, Reuters cameraman Hussam al-Masri, Mariam Abu Daqqa, a freelance journalist working for AP at the time, as well as Ahmed Abu Aziz and Moaz Abu Taha.

Al Jazeera’s Tareq Abu Azzoum, reporting from Deir el-Balah, said the attack has “sent the entire area into an absolute sense of chaos and panic”.

“Not only for passers-by or people living in the vicinity of the hospital, but for the patients themselves, who are receiving treatment in one of the areas that must be protected under … international humanitarian law,” Abu Azzoum said. [MORE]

Ego Shining: McNegro Wes Moore isn’t on Video saying 'Trump is the Greatest President,' but the Nations Only Black Governor is Caught on Camera Engaging in Master-Servant Relations, Brown-Nosing

While speaking to reporters at the Oval Office on Monday, President Donald Trump claimed that Maryland Gov. Wes Moore (D) told him last year that he had been “the greatest president” of Moore’s lifetime.

But the possible 2028 presidential candidate quickly dispelled the claim, saying in a radio interview hours later that he never told Trump that.

“I’m a person who takes my integrity very seriously, and I spent the past six months before that election campaigning as to why I did not think that he should be the next president of the United States,” Moore told WBAL Radio. “So when I say that conversation never happened, that imaginary conversation never happened, I mean that conversation never happened.”

According to FUNKTIONARY:

ego-shine – the act of someone flattering another for the purposes of immediate or future gain. 2) a higher, more sophisticated form of brown-nosing—remember what egos are like? Scuff Daddy shines your ego—leaving you puffed-up or buffed-up.

Filling the Jails with Black People: New Study Finds 46% of All Youth Locked Up are Black (despite being only 15% of all youth) and Black Youth are 5.6X more Likely to be Incarcerated than White Kids

The Sentencing Project released a series of briefs revealing a disturbing resurgence in youth incarceration and widening racial disparities as of 2023–just as the Trump Administration calls for increased criminalization of youth. Reporting from the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) showed the first consecutive annual increase in the one-day count of youth incarceration since 2000. The findings, compiled in three newly released briefs underscore the urgent need for systemic reform in youth justice practices nationwide.

Key findings include:

Black Youth Incarceration

• 46% of youth in placement are Black, even though Black youth comprise only 15% of all youth in the United States

• Black youth are 5.6 times as likely to be incarcerated than white youth– and the Black/white racial disparities in youth incarceration grew more than 10% in 23 states.

• Nebraska has the highest Black youth incarceration rate, the second-highest Black/white disparity, and the third-fastest growing disparity over the past decade.

• West Virginia ranks second in Black youth incarceration.

Latino Youth Incarceration

• Latino youth are at least twice as likely to be incarcerated than white youth in 11 states.

• The Latino/white disparity rate in youth incarceration grew more than 10% in 13 states over the last ten years.

• West Virginia has the highest Latino youth incarceration rate.

• Latino youth were at least three times as likely to be held in placement in Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Utah, and South Carolina compared to their white peers.

Tribal Youth Incarceration

• Tribal youth are almost four times as likely to be incarcerated than white youth.

• The Tribal/white disparity rate in youth incarceration has grown more than 10% in eight states with significant Tribal populations.

• South Dakota leads the nation in Tribal youth incarceration, ranks third in its Tribal/white disparity, and has the third-fastest-growing disparity.

• Minnesota has the highest Tribal/white disparity and ranks third in Tribal youth incarceration.

• Tribal youth were at least ten times as likely to be held in placement as white youth in Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. [MORE]

Additionally, a new Prison Policy Initiative report provides the most up-to-date picture of how many youth are detained and committed in the U.S., highlighting the persistent overincarceration of Black and Indigenous youth in a system that, in recent decades, has made great strides in reducing youth confinement overall. Youth Confinement: The Whole Pie 2025 explores the conditions facing 31,900 kids today — most of whom are held in youth prisons and jails — and offers data on youth confinement by offense type in all 50 states.

Over the past 25 years, the number of youth in confinement in the U.S. has fallen by more than 70 percent — impressive progress compared to the adult criminal legal system, whose populations have changed very little overall in that same period. Nevertheless, the U.S. still confines youth at a rate more than twice the global average, and its juvenile legal system mirrors the adult system in many alarming ways:

• Severe racial disparities. 47% of boys and 39% of girls in juvenile facilities are Black — a level of disparity that has actually worsened in recent years. And even excluding youth held in Indian country facilities, Indigenous children make up 3% of girls and 2% of boys in juvenile facilities, despite comprising less than 1% of all youth nationally.

• Large numbers of youth held pretrial or for minor offenses. Nearly 9,000 youth today are locked up before they’ve had a trial, and thousands are in detention for minor, low-level offenses. Select states — such as Indiana, which accounts for almost one-quarter of kids locked up for running away; and Texas and California, which hold 26% of kids confined for technical violations of parole — contribute heavily to this problem.

• Prison-like conditions. While the number of kids in large facilities (holding 100 youth or more) has fallen steeply in the last few years, nearly 4 out of every 5 confined kids are held in youth or adult prisons and jails — an increase since 2017, when 65% of confined youth were held in such places.

NAACP Urges Legislature to Pass Stalling Reparations Bills

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, California-Hawaii State Conference (CA/HI NAACP), is urging the Legislature to pass two reparations bills authored by state Sen. Akilah Weber Pierson (D-San Diego), chair of the California Legislative Black Caucus (CLBC). 

The bills — Senate Bill (SB) 518 and SB) 437 – were assigned to the “Suspense File” after review in the Assembly Appropriations Committee. 

In the California Legislature, any bill that would potentially cost the state more than $50,000 from the General Fund or $150,000 from special funds is automatically sent to the Suspense File for further consideration at a special hearing. 

Rick L. Callender, President of the NAACP Cal-Hi State Conference, said the bills are critical for advancing racial and social justice in California and are a “moral and constitutional imperative.” 

“For generations, Black Californians have carried the weight of systemic harm with no redress. These bills offer the state a chance to begin making that right,” Callender said. 

“The NAACP has long demanded reparations for the descendants of slavery,” Callender continued.  “California must lead with courage, not caution, and move these bills forward without another delay.”  

SB 518 proposes the establishment of an agency to implement state-level reparations for eligible descendants of enslaved individuals.  SB 437 authorizes California State University (CSU) to use genealogical records to determine eligibility for initiatives benefiting descendants of enslaved persons. [MORE]

Piece and Freedumb Lover Trump's Executive Order Prohibiting Flag Burning Is Unconstitutional

From [HERE] President Donald Trump issued an executive order prohibiting the burning of the American flag on Monday. There's a big problem with the order, though—one that Trump even acknowledged in his press conference touting the E.O. Flag burning is clearly protected by the First Amendment, and the Supreme Court has twice affirmed that this is so.

Moreover, any administration that purports to care about freedom of speech should easily reach the conclusion that criminalizing provocative yet nonviolent acts of political expression is a violation of this principle, even if the constitutional issue was not so cut and dry.

It's understandable why people don't like flag burning. The flag is a visual representation of the principles upon which America was founded, and when it's disrespected, many Americans take it as a sign that those values are being treated with contempt.

"Flag burning, all over the country they're burning flags," lamented Trump, as he signed the order.

Free speech, though, is among the most fundamental American values of all. The right of Americans to speak their minds is enshrined in the First Amendment; importantly, this right does not apply solely to benign, polite, socially acceptable speech. As one hundred years of Supreme Court jurisprudence has made clear, the First Amendment also protects hateful speech, wrongful speech, angry speech, criticism of the government, and so on. There are some exceptions to the First Amendment, but they are incredibly narrow—and importantly, they do not include flag-burning.

That's because the Supreme Court ruled on this very issue in the landmark 1989 case Texas v. Johnson, which overturned 48 state laws prohibiting desecration of the American flag. In response, Congress passed a federal law that prohibited flag burning, and the following year, the Supreme Court reached the exact same conclusion in United States v. Eichman. If the state-level bans are unconstitutional, and the ban implemented by Congress is unconstitutional, then you can pretty safely bet that the executive order version is even more obviously unconstitutional.

Liberals Support Slave Labor: Illegal immigration is a horror show of exploitation and human misery

From [HERE] Decades after men like Cesar Chavez thought they broke the back of Big Ag, which was using Mexican and other labor to make huge profits, little has changed. I just got an email from Amazon/Whole Foods saying some of the prices on my weekly standard delivery order are going up due to “increasing labor costs.” In the agriculture sector, 76 percent percent of the exploited persons are immigrants, and nearly half of all victims are from Mexico.

And that touches the third rail of importing cheap labor to the United States, the actual slave trade, which preceded mass immigration. Call it racist to bypass the forced nature of this “immigration,” but the parameters are terribly similar. Both involve people being denied basic rights and protections, both situations involve exploitation—long hours, little or no pay, unsafe conditions, and both enslaved people and illegal alien workers are in vulnerable positions, often unable to leave or seek help safely (such as trafficked aliens). It is certainly not the same, but the cheap, exploitable labor that drives prostitution and farm work in modern America has the same basis as the cheap, exploitable labor which drove the antebellum global agrarian economy.

The pool of vulnerable labor is by necessity large, with some 18.6 million million illegal aliens currently in the U.S. Yet demanding even more immigration, and playing cops and robbers with ICE, is a key platform for the Democratic party today. So what are they fighting for?

They are for the same base of exploitable labor that has been a part of the United States from near the Founding, only this time dressed up with the sanction of modern liberal morality. The farm workers the Democrats celebrate as hard-working men of the soil are just people imported for their vulnerability. Those 19th-century immigrants were sacrificing all for a better future by laboring in some of the worst sweatshops of the century (my maternal grandfather was an unschooled child laborer in a candy factory.) It looks good for many family stories to focus on those black and white relatives who came over (and that certainly is the myth behind the Ellis Island version of things), but in reality it hides the same dark tale still being written today.

Despite her pretty words about freedom, AOC supports the sexual exploitation of women and girls. Gavin Newsom supports the use of Mexicans in his “sanctuary” state as long as they do back-breaking field work. Zohran Mamdani will be ensuring his New York is maintained with inexpensive restaurant food and plenty of prostitutes. Forget the sob stories about hard-working dads plucked out of the meatpacking plants (undocumented workers make up up to 50 percent percent of the meatpacking workforce; meatpacking companies recently paid out $8 million for child labor violations) by the ICE “Gestapo,” and focus on what is underlying all those workers being drawn here in the first place. Illegal labor is the engine of a shadow economy and always has been—now fully supported by Democrats. [MORE]

Advocates Say Authorities Must Inform the Public that Digital IDs (if adopted) Will Be Voluntary and Optional [Unless you can't do anything without it]

From [HERE] Children’s Health Defense (CHD) is urging U.S. regulatory authorities to publish a webpage that clearly states that digital ID systems, if adopted, will be voluntary and optional for U.S. citizens.

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), which operates under the U.S. Department of Commerce, is preparing to launch a “Frequently Asked Questions” webpage about its new rules.

In a letter sent Thursday to Ryan Galluzzo, NIST’s digital ID program leader,

Miriam Eckenfels, director of CHD’s Electromagnetic Radiation (EMR) & Wireless Program, wrote:

“CHD requests that NIST publish a formal FAQ to confirm your department is committed to emphasizing the voluntary nature of digital ID, meaning that nothing in the new NIST guidance should be construed to require biometric identification.”

Eckenfels provided sample language NIST could use for the FAQ.

NIST, which is responsible for establishing “technical requirements for federal agencies implementing digital identity services,” recently published its updated digital ID guidelines.

While the new guidelines don’t state that digital IDs would be mandatory, the document doesn’t include a special section explaining that digital IDs must remain optional.

“Children and traditionally identified persons (meaning people who decline a digital ID) would be adversely affected by NIST’s new guidance if the guidance is misinterpreted to require digital identification such as biometric identifiers,” Eckenfels said.

NIST “is clearly moving toward digital wallets and biometric keys that will make it harder for Americans to access their online accounts (email, bank, everything online) unless Americans provide biometric identifiers (face scan, thumb print),” said Greg Glaser, a digital privacy expert and attorney.

On Aug. 19, Montana became the 10th state to accept digital IDs via Apple Wallet, according to PC Mag. The app enables iPhone users to store a digital driver’s license or state ID on their phone. Montana also adopted Google Wallet, available on Android phones.

Nine other states — Arizona, California, Colorado, Georgia, Hawaii, Iowa, Maryland, New Mexicoand Ohio — have adopted Apple’s digital ID app, according to PC Mag. Seven more states are preparing to adopt the app, MacRumours said.

Eight states, including Montana, have adopted Google Wallet as of Aug. 20, according to ZDNet.

Twila Brase, a registered nurse, expressed support for CHD’s letter. “NIST must make it clear by putting it in writing that digital IDs are voluntary, can never be mandated, and those who have them can revert to a hardcopy license,” she said.

Brase is co-founder and president of Citizens’ Council for Health Freedom, a health privacy nonprofit that has been challenging Real ID. She said:

“As we’ve seen with our work to oppose the REAL ID system, government agencies rarely disclose that individuals are not required to have a REAL ID. As a result, most people with REAL ID and digital IDs are clueless about their rights, government biometric databases, federal control over their ID, or how digital IDs enable government tracking in full violation of the [U.S. Constitution’s] 4th Amendment.

“If Americans knew the truth about the federal REAL ID and digital IDs, we’d see much higher refusal rates. But without proper warning or full disclosure by state DMVs, Americans accept the unacceptable.”

The States Sending Race Soldiers to DC Have Worse Crime Problems: 53 Cities Across Louisiana, Mississippi, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee and West Virginia had higher Murder Rates than DC in 2024

From [HERE] The residents of Washington, D.C., have responded to President Donald Trump’s deployment of federal law enforcement and National Guard into their neighborhoods with revulsion, vitriol and hurled hoagies. 

Trump declared a crime emergency in the nation’s capitol on Aug. 11, even though violence rates recently plunged to the lowest levels seen in decades. A recent Washington Post-Schar School poll found that 79 percent of Washingtonians oppose Trump’s actions and 69 percent do so “strongly.” 

After Trump deployed 800 members of the D.C. National Guard, six Republican governors volunteered hundreds of their own guardsmen: West Virginia, South Carolina, Ohio, Louisiana, Mississippi and Tennessee. 

Mayor Muriel E. Bowser (D) said sending troops from other states, “doesn’t make sense,” but she believes the district has little power to stop them. 

That got us wondering: How would those governors feel if National Guard troops from other states were ordered onto their streets, perhaps to patrol one of the 53 cities in those states with a higher murder rate than Washington’s? After all, if D.C. is in the throes of a crime emergency worthy of a militarized response — and you have no concerns that response might backfire — then why aren’t the good people of Jackson, Mississippi or North Charleston, South Carolina? 

According to a Democracy Docket analysis of the FBI’s Crime in the United States Annual Report, using Offenses Known to Law Enforcement, by State by City in 2024, 53 cities across Louisiana, Mississippi, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee and West Virginia had higher murder rates than D.C. in 2024. 

Some of the cities have violent crime rates significantly worse than D.C. Memphis saw 2,501 violent crimes per 100,000 residents in 2024, more than double Washington’s 926. The murder rate in Memphis was 41 per 100,000 residents, compared to 26 for D.C.

Washington did see a spike in violent crime and car thefts during the COVID pandemic, but that peaked in 2023. Violent crime dropped by over a third — 35 percent — in 2024, matching a trend in cities across the nation, including Memphis. 

Despite the GOP’s focus on Democratic-led cities, crime is a problem for Republican towns, too. Shreveport, Louisiana, which has a Republican mayor, has a higher murder rate than DC (27 per 100,000 residents), and a higher violent crime rate (1,228 per 100,000 residents). [MORE]

Venezuelans Grip Up in Response to Trump's Threats: Holds 2nd Day of National Militia Enlistment, "Enlisting means saying no to imperialism"

No Wonder Racists Sleep Well at Night, They Believe Joy Reid is "Radical"

The above is mindless nonsense found in The Spectacle. Joy Reid is an out of work Black probot and sleeping tom. She was unplugged by her elite liberal masters at MSNBC and is looking for a new gig to continue parroting their messaging. Her and a large number of other coin-operated Black puppeticians, authorities, spokespuppets and proxymorons are showcased and paid well by elite white liberals in the Democratic party establishment.

In reality, elite racists have done a great job at minimizing and burying the radical works of Dr. Frances Cress Welsing, Dr. Amos Wilson, Neely Fuller, Marimba Ani, Steve Coakley, Dr. Blynd, Elijah Muhammad and others. Racist suspect liberal scholars in particular deny their existence by omission.
