Sinclair Broadcasting is the Trump ally that pushes right-wing propaganda like this into 40% of local news markets.

Brynn picked the role of villain & using bullying to clearly make scenes/police folks behavior & antagonize them vs building real rapport with the women. Erin stirs the pot in contrived ways but 0 accountability. Utah doesn’t enjoy reality tv. It ain’t working #RHONY

White voters just voted for a fascist regime because they would rather burn it all down than share. It was a simple choice between white nationalism & multicultural democracy & they chose wrong

This election result isn't about Dem messaging. Their messaging during the campaign was about helping the middle class, continuing with sound economic policies, affordable healthcare and education, the rights of women, strengthening the border, unity. Kamala Harris and Tim Walz formed a balanced ticket filled with character, intellect, and genuine love for this country, and they eloquently delivered their vision better beautifully. This election result is about racism, misogyny, lack of education—and an irresponsible media that caters to those realities. There is no messaging that can overcome prejudice and ignorance, and those two factors are the only explanation for Trump even being the nominee and getting 75 million votes. We need to stop pretending there is some perfect Democratic candidate or magic messaging to reach people who have abandoned objective reality and chosen to embrace their fears and phobias, while failing to do the slightest bit of work to know what candidates' policies and plans are. The Dems didn't fail America, they just exist in a nation where far too many people don't pay attention or care to understand what's actually happening. Maybe they will now.

White America isn’t about having Joy it’s about ruining someone else’s.

As the collective freak out continues, Harris will lose by about 2 points. Trump will get about 50.3% of the vote. Across the Rust Belt swing states Harris would have lost by less than 150K votes it seems. So... Trump isn't some wizard or genius. It seems 3 factors determined this election. 1) Post pandemic reality where nearly every incumbent party lost. 2) Racism and misogyny that many white colleagues still refuse to acknowledge as a major factor. 3) Right-wing media domination and disinformation.

To all my Black folks on here and beyond. Do not sign up for this and Do not attend. This is not our problem to fix it’s their problem now. We Black women have done everything we possibly could. The onus is on them now not us.

Yea. I said it. White privilege means Black households get treated like a widespread crisis. But almost every school shooter can be a white male and there's no national emergency about how white families raise their children.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Angela has physically assaulted Micheal if she’s this verbally violent with cameras around. It’s disgusting. Idc what Michael did she’s continued to be with him despite red flags & it isn’t a pass to abuse him #90DayHappilyEverAfterTellAll
