Video shows white teens punching him while yelling racial slurs like “F*** that n up” and “kill that n.”At one point, they shoved him against a meat grinder, then slammed him to the ground and kept beating him. This is not “kids being kids.” This is racial violence in 2025, in Wisconsin. 2/4

This should be getting far more attention from the media, and it should be investigated as a hate crime. A 14-year-old Black teen was targeted, beaten, and dehumanized with racial slurs by white teens while people stood around cheering. 1/4

He’s a hardcore long-time criminal who’ll never change IMO — unlike the majority of criminals. He’s ’born to be’ maybe, due to his probable inherent narcissistic nature, but made worse by a Nazi criminal father who encouraged him to be “a killer” in business & in life in general. Nature vs nurture.

Studies repeatedly show that most people age out of "hardcore" crime by their late 30s and 40s. And nobody is "born to be" a criminal. Even Trump, who is a hardcore criminal who has not aged out of his illicit behavoir, was not born like this. I blame his parents.

The law is clear, whether you like it or not: Members of Congress have the right to conduct oversight of ICE facilities. No law gives Trump the power to target his chosen political enemies, like @replamonica.bsky.social, simply for doing their jobs and their duties.
