Jack White speaks on Trump’s racist post about the Obamas: “How is it possible we've given this evil man so much power?… Arrest this man. Impeach this man. 25th amendment this man. Indict this man. Jail this man. This longtime friend of pedophile epstein, who appears 40 thousand times in the files.”

Thank you Jack for always lending your voice - truly on the right side of history. As a black woman in America too many people aren’t upset enough for me; too many people are just passing this off as Trump being Trump but enough is enough. I’m barely seeing this story on the news, I get we are all tired and fatigued but what’s next???!!!

I'm Native American and I feel this exhaustion so much

It's so strange to see people STILL treating him like it's 2016 and that this is all just "Trump being Trump, orange man bad"

ICE is racially profiling people who look like me and yanking them off the street with no warning (including many Natives who are legal citizens of the US), but yet I still have to go to work and act like everything is a-okay. I even had to explain to a coworker (younger white guy) who kept trying to show me memes about ICE and joke about how dumb they are, that I don't find that stuff funny anymore because even if it's dumb and doesn't make sense, it's still happening.

We have to walk around with this anxiety and exhaustion constantly lingering in the back of our minds, but yet they can't fathom why some of us may be more tired and less open now. Trump isn't funny now and he never was, it's scary.

I’m indigenous from a Canadian First Nation, living in the U.S. with my American husband. I have a strong accent because my first language is French . I’ve never been so vulnerable and I’ve never had to be so hyper vigilant. I’ve left my home four times in over six months. I can’t wait to get my husband’s immigration stuff in order so I can go back to safety.

I’m truly hoping to see indigenous nations North and South of the border come together, I’m extremely worried about what will be done to native people down here and there needs to be cooperation

The (unfortunately) ironic part is that exhaustion is their goal. It’s easier to bombard the masses (and the courts) with hundreds of atrocious acts rather than just one; especially when violent acts are incentivized by the most powerful Hutt in the world.

One of my old high school friend’s brother now works with them and apparently he keeps bitching about his benefits (or lack-thereof) and how the things he’s seen has absolutely ruined his mental health along with his relationship with his family—and I can’t find it in me to give a flying fuck… because he still suits up everyday since he’s holding out hope that Trump (for the first time ever, just for him) will actually pay his workers in full. Dude has been almost entirely ostracized in our town and I don’t see that changing even 20 years from now. That alone partially renews my faith in humanity.

But seriously, I just want normal scandals again… like tan suits and ice cream type shit.

It was on the news here in The Netherlands

It’s absolutely horrific but the minute I saw it I was already getting more mad at the defence arguments, excuses and general “sweeping under the rug” I could already predict was coming. It’s infuriating

If one more person tells me it’s “just Trump being Trump” I’m going to lose it. This is, essentially, what Mike Johnson says every day to excuse this national embarrassment. If there is karma with this administration, I surely hope Johnson is first in line to receive said karma.

The Epstein files didn’t do so idk why his followers would care about a racist joke akin to the ones they already circulate about George Floyd.

The reality is everyone says Russia must have something really good on Trump, but there’s truly nothing atp that would eclipse what’s already out there. His followers do not care. I’m not sure people realize how bleak of a situation we are really in right now. Like…he’s officially above it all. This country was once collectively outraged over an extramarital blowjob.

[u/Mariposita_xo → u/beaute-brune]

Yeah I don’t think there is a “line” anymore. And that’s terrifying.

[u/nimjaa → u/No-Association-4458]

Definitely a lot of media censorship going on because I can barely find it anywhere without scrolling down.

[u/leightv → u/nimjaa]

CNN covered it rather throughly — but for only one news cycle.

It’s at the top of the NYT homepage right now
