So, if drug running is now a capital offense that was carried out in Venezuelan strike, that means raping a child with Epstein is a capital offense too, amirite.

Put your focus where it belongs. It’s not the deploying of troops in cities. It’s not blowing up a Venezuelan drug boat. It’s not moving the US Space Command HQ. The big story to watch is members of Congress conspiring to bury Trump’s monstrous crimes against children in the Epstein files.
😊💙🙏🏽
Canada was particularly good at this. America specialized in forced removal.
The Rock Springs massacre was not an isolated event but a notorious example of the widespread anti-Chinese sentiment. Numerous “driving out” incidents occurred across the American West in the late 19th century, many of them organized by the anti-Chinese Knights of Labor. /end
Sixteen white miners were arrested, but a grand jury was unwilling to indict anyone because no white citizens would testify against them. In 1887, Congress, under pressure from President Grover Cleveland, agreed to pay $147,748.74 in restitution to the Chinese government for property damage. /5
After a workplace dispute escalated into a violent conflict, a mob of around 150 armed white miners descended on Chinatown. Many Chinese miners fled for the hills, while others hid in their homes. The mob looted and burned nearly 80 homes, with rioters reportedly throwing bodies into the flames. /3
The white miners had tried to unionize so they could strike for better wages and work conditions, but were thwarted by the Union Pacific Railroad, which owned the mines. To fill vacancies and break strikes, the railroad hired Chinese laborers, who were willing to work hard at lower wages. /2
#ResistanceRoots Today in history, 1885: A mob of white miners in Rock Springs, Wyo., attack and kill at least 28 Chinese miners, wound 15 others and burn down the town’s Chinatown. Union troops were called in to quell the violence, which was rooted in economic tension and anti-Chinese racism. /1
Several hundred Chinese survivors abandoned their homes and businesses and hid in the hills, afraid to come out for food. Federal troops temporarily sheltered them before escorting them back a week later. The troops remained in Rock Springs for more than a decade to prevent further violence. /4
TLDR; UCR reports arrests, not convictions. Np surprise to anyone, black people are disproportionally arrested. 61% of exonerations are black people. DEMAND CHANGE!
Helpful thread.
I'm so sorry, my friend.😪🙏🏽🪶
This happened to my family!!!!
The Navy would just shoot out their engines and arrest them. This is murder.
SO lovely to see you again, sir. Somehow I didn’t know that you were on Bluesky ❤️
"Please be mindful of this the next time a racist throws crime statistics around."
Not to mention the laws that targeted the vulnerable - eg, powder vs crack cocaine; eg, stop/frisk; eg, unhoused. Reminds me of Les Miserables.
Jay-Z said, "Men lie. Women lie. Numbers dont." Yo Gotti said, "Women lie. Men lie. Numbers dont lie." The lie detector test determined...... THAT WAS A LIE!
You're welcome, Eileen!😊💙
Yep. And the UCR says nothing about crime rates. DOJ’s criminal victimization survey does that.
It was all strategic. Deliberately planned to put down black people and give privilege to white people. Social engineering.
Informative thread. Eddie schooling us with the FACTS.
So many documentaries,too..no excuse for anyone not to know the history..
So they re-released most of the same shit they gave the GOP binder crew in February? Color me shocked. Never thought I’d say this, but I’m with Massie. Release the rest of the damn Epstein files, not this cherry-picked bullshit.
Here’s a comment that isn’t fake: Homophobia isn’t cool, Dogg. This is how you want to be remembered?

great thread

Because of your post, I thought to myself "How much does that cost the taxpayer?" Turns out that it is about $16 trillion in the past 20 years. Imagine how much better off we would ALL BE if there was no racism?! www.npr.org/sections/liv...
I've read several books abt ingrained racism & thought I had conquered most. Apparently not!! I dont use that saying myself, but never say anything to others who say it. Its generally used in a non-racial way, & YET, it STILL has racial undertones. I'll do better & say something!!🗣🤜🏻🤛🏾🎯💥💯💙
Thankyou Eddie for posting this because few people know these facts,and it is important that facts like these get out to the public.
It is the racists. youtu.be/rhrPuyXH3Q0?...
Thank you Eddie
SO FREAKING DIFFICULT! Keep up the good work! There are still times when I'm shocked that the thing I said, or was about to say, as still being racist. It takes YEARS to dig out all that old programming, because like I said, we don't even know we're programmed. Good luck!!
Mayor Brandon Johnson (D) speaking passionately at a rally yesterday! The city of Chicago is so fortunate to have him! I have great admiration for his strength and fortitude protecting Democracy and the people of his city! #USDemocracy #Pinks
Such an unfortunate reply..😁 Newsom isn’t perfect, but he sure as hell isn’t Trump. You want to play with me?
I was homeless with my trans wife for almost six years. You’re either an advocate for people like me or you are a troll. Your behavior tells me otherwise.
You mean Gov. Newsom doesn’t ride sharks?? No!!! I’m shocked. He’s a fraud!! 😱 Homeless people don’t have property, that’s why they are homeless. If you can save our country then go ahead. Big words, no action. Keyboard warrior.
But I thought the Trump admin was trying to fight crime in DC. Open carry isn’t legal, but they’re going to turn a blind eye? MAKE IT MAKE SENSE! 🚨 U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro directed her office to no longer seek felony charges against individuals carrying rifles or shotguns in D.C.

I love @stephenking.bsky.social 🥰❤️🥹 I saw this on Twitter. I would have shared his post if he did it here but I couldn't find it so I did a screenshot of the Twitter post.
Since returning to office, Trump has: -Stripped 1 million federal workers of collective bargaining rights -Reversed Biden's minimum wage hike for federal contractors -Gutted OSHA and frozen enforcement of a regulation protecting miners from lung disease "Pro-worker" president.
The fact that law enforcement agencies submit data to the UCR voluntarily doesn't help...

Here's the answer: They keep it moving around because there are people who WILL believe it. White grievance is a helluva drug. There are millions of people still alive who never got over the signing of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The same folks tell Black ppl to "get over" slavery & Jim Crow. 🙄
Sometimes it takes a few tries to really understand how the culture we're immersed in quietly reinforces the racist stereotypes Americans learned back in the 18th Century. We're so jacked up, we don't even know we're jacked up.
Aside from looking very puffy, sniffing a ton, and rambling off track even more than normal, Trump doesn’t look bad. He seems to be recovering well from whatever the White House was hiding.
The largest SNAP cuts in history went into effect yesterday, eliminating or drastically cutting food assistance for millions of Americans. And it’s all to pay for more tax cuts that primarily benefit the super-rich. Trickle-down economics isn't just a hoax — it's cruel.
Oh and perhaps some racism thrown in?
that "highest" exoneration rate speaks volumes
Prime example of official misconduct occurred in Chicago starting in the 70’s. White detectives tortured Black people into confessing to crimes they didn’t commit. chicagotorture.org/reparations/...
Statistics have always been questionable, but under 47’s administration, I don’t think there’s anything that can be believed. Thank you for another enlightening thread, my friend!
Thanks for this thread. I'll add that the reporting data is voluntary, so the FBI stats are still not a complete picture of arrests for the entire country. You can pull up the data by searching for FBI UCR Table 43 and see for yourself.
Being falsely accused is what fuels the perception and sometimes the conviction. Systemic Racism is real.
#ff if you want to learn.
Read, understand, share.
I would say white males and add women to the list
Arrests, not convictions. Thanks Eddie.
Anyone remember Dallas 1st Black DA, #CraigWatkins??? He was involved in exonerations of several men wrongly convicted. I voted fir Mr Watkins & allowed hus campaign sign in my yard. Alas, he passed away & I know DARN WELL there are other misconvicted inmates within TX prisons. Rest in Power, sir. 🕊
Darling Red... still counting the blessings of your pointing out the ingrained racism i have unintentionally harbored. The "String 'em up," on Pace ads. Ot never "clicked!!" Ive hrmeard that expression so much, just rolls off w out any thought. Im beyond grateful for your post. FOREVER grateful!🫠🥰💯💙
Of course they skew these statistics…it makes it sound so much “worse” when you put their spin on it. I’m reminded of an article I read about homelessness and how they gather those statistics. They count their numbers on ONE night of the year so that’s not really the “true” number. Colonizers man 🤦
A lot of court stats are skewed for sure.
Thank you!
I heard this crap growing up, I still hear it today! It's nothing but disgusting #racist bullshit 🤬 #WokeContent #BlackLivesMatter
Should be famous quote: Lies, Damn Lies, and Statistics
This is and has always been a bullshit line. How many lives have been ruined or ended. Ahmaud Arbery didn't do shit and he was murdered for existing. How many is too many? I say one.
Thanks again Eddie! This also shows how badly systemic racism & profiling cause more blacks to be arrested than whites.
How do they keep that worn out lie moving around and why do people still believe it. Ahem: The majority of violent crimes are committed by white males between the ages of 18 and 35.

You're welcome, Mindy. I was compelled to put together a thread on this because Trump has his sights on the Holocaust Museum. He wants to whitewash history in some exhibits.
Thank you Eddie! I am always pushing for people to be educated instead of just repeating what they last heard. There are plenty of facts available about the Holocaust and the 1000s of years of history of prejudice about a people who have always been a minority.
Thank you Eddie for posting this. 🔥🔥🤜🏾🤛🏾

🚨 The silence is over. Tomorrow at 10:30 AM, survivors of Epstein’s abuse will speak on Capitol Hill. Reps. Ro Khanna & Thomas Massie will stand with them. Listen to the victims. Believe them. RELEASE THE FILES ‼️
Falls Du ein*e Journalist*in im Deutschsprachigen Raum bist und zB noch über Kriminalitätsraten in USA schreiben willst/musst (Washington DC, Chicago, Du weisst schon). Lies erst noch diesen Thread und wähle dann Deine Worte vorsichtig.
Forgotten is also the fact that everything black people do is criminalized while white crime is largely ignored and barely gets a warning. Also the fact that you can steal more money with a briefcase than you can with a gun.
Sir, I had no words as the tears yet again streamed down my face, in shame for what humanity does to one another in the name of false ideals, all I can say is I am so truly sorry for these inequities and I will always resist against those who perpetrate these crimes.
This has to stop. We have been forced to live with this deliberately manufactured reality for far too long ! We have been disappeared for 400 years.
Great thread. Thank you.
This is an important statistic.
The most violence I’ve seen was on 4/19/95. 168 deaths & 800 injuries all because of white supremacy. It was horrible. I volunteered to help! Everyone helped! It was inspiring...but then, after some time, the people pushed it all out of their minds & started embracing anger, cruelty & harm. Sad.🪞🤨
