I'm not a huge fan of Rep. Omar, but she is right: There ARE elements of this very government and country that are turning into the Taliban.
Anti-vaxxers don't care if they kill us who are vaccinated--as long as they don't have to wear a mask. They also believe that Jesus will protect them and their families from Covid-19.
The Supreme Court, packed with Federalists right-wingers who will IMHO overturn Roe.
African-Americans, like that comedian in Afghanistan are still being murdered by racist police. I fear for my nieces and nephews, and they damn sure also fear for their own lives/safety as well, because a racist policeman can take one of them out in a heartbeat just because he CAN.
Maher has the right to his opinion, but he's damn sure safer than I am from the police, and no white-splainin' he does will convince me otherwise. I'm a bi-racial female (Black/Native American), and I can easily lose my life here in this country because a racist ass policeman may decide to pull me over, look at me and not like the way HE thought I looked at him, order me out of the car and blow my head off or choke me to death, and if not for the young lady with the cell phone who now suffers from PSTD, George Floyd would have just been another n***er murdered by the police, because the report those racist, murderous police wrote up for that day was nothing like what I saw of George Floyd--who was on his stomach, handcuffed and begging for his life, and especially not accurate after seeing Chauvin's knee on Floyd's neck sucking the air/life out of him as Floyd was yelling "I can't breathe." Chauvin had a lot of complaints as well on HIS resume, yet he was allowed to keep on doing what he was doing.
Must be nice Bill to not have to worry about the police like I have to and like many of my relatives have to here in the "good old" USA in 2021 and in the 21st century..
