New Trump Ad Praises Campus Counterprotesters
Seriously people are proud of acting this way? Really? If a child acted like this the parents would discipline or correct them, yet adults think college kids and tRump supporters think the thuggish racist behavior is great. tRump loves it. It is his style. Berate, ridicule, insult, demean others is what tRump thinks is intellectual reasoning and discussion. What has this country devolved into? I thought we grew out of this childish shit a long time ago. Hugs. Scottie
Here’s a reminder about the scene at Ole Miss:
There were hundreds of counter-protesters, in contrast to the few dozen pro-Palestine protesters. The scene evoked memories of the resistance to the civil rights struggle in the US south six decades earlier.
The counter-protesters included individuals waving American flags and Trump flags. At one point, they sang the American national anthem, drowning out the pro-Palestine group’s chants.
There were no arrests, but the actions of the counter-protesters – who shouted “Fuck Joe Biden”, “Who’s your daddy?”, “USA”, “Hit the showers”, “Your nose is huge”, and included a white man making monkey noises at a Black woman – have been widely condemned on social media.

I believe that his full name is James Pearson Staples.

His parents must be SO PROUD
oh wait. Maybe they are
I would like to think that his behavior is just a bit of bad judgment he will grow out of, but I seriously doubt it. Not in Mississippi. He has so very, very few good examples to look to.
I’d say it’s majorly bad judgment, but agree with your prognosis. It’s too late to scour the racism out of him
I’ll bet there is a high likelihood that he has ancestors who were in a mob that lynched someone.
Good people on both sides…
These white boy frats have been raking in hundreds of thousands of dollars via GiveSendGo over the past few days. There are all kinds of right-wing companies that want employees like this.
It’s almost as if Republicans were the party of drunk, pasty white rapey fratbros.
We’ve met these shitheads before (click to enlarge):
Some things never change. 😠
EXPLAINED: Why TERF-In-Chief JK Rowling Is Celebrating Trans-Care Review Findings | Erin Reed | TMR
This interview points out some of the flaws in the Cass Report, and how Cass herself was a known anti-trans person who had worked with DeathSantis and his administration. Talk about asking the fox about the hen house security. The people who wanted a badly done report on trans care / trans kids choose a known anti-trans person to do it. Erin Reed is a trans person who is very well versed in trans issues. The video is not long, about 14.19 minutes long but very informative if you know someone who is an anti-trans hater who often says well look at the UK and those places they are stopping care, or someone who likes to refer to the Cass report. Hugs. Scottie
Journalist Erin Reed, author of the Erin In The Morning newsletter on SubStack, discusses the recent gender identity review by the National Health Services (NHS) in the United Kingdom.
Erin Reed and Emma then jump right into the background for the UK’s recent Cass Report on transgender care, stepping back to briefly cover the rise of transphobic activism in the UK at the end of the 2010s, and the major policy impacts it had despite fringe following, including the NHS-sponsored ‘independent’ and ‘unbiased’ review by Hillary Cass. After giving some background on the evidently not-so-unbiased Cass herself, Reed parses through the clear failure of the report itself to live up to these supposed standards, actively excluding both trans voices and experts on trans care from the report, relying on outdated and fraudulent statistics (compiled by notorious homophobes nonetheless), and repeatedly requiring absurdly high standards for trans care – standards not met by the vast majority of both adult and pediatric care – while rarely substantiating any of the claims about the supposed dangers.
UCLA’s Finest Faces Down The Pig Army
You want to know the truth of the media bias and what is the true violence at these don’t do a genocide protests. Watch the entirety of this video. It is delivered in a nonsense style and the only loud parts are the violent police shooting round after round of tear gas, flash bangs, and rubber bullets which can be lethal at the students. The videos shown show how violent and gleeful the police thugs were to use their weapons of force. This was one of the best breakdowns of the campus police raids I have seen. The first 5 minutes might not grab you, but please watch past it. Get to the meat of the video. It will change your minds on a lot of the media coverage. Vaush spends a lot of time quietly going over the ridicules things the report has to say like look they have chairs, why would you have metal chairs at a protest if not to harm others … maybe in a day’s long protest people might want to sit down? The reporter asks about how did the things the protesters have get there because they won’t fit in their pockets? Really, a large group of people planing a large scale protest wouldn’t know how to arrange to bring in stuff together to make it easier for them? How corporate media do these reports now have to be these days? Please watch the video if not in full, if not at least half way to understand the disinformation being spread by the media. Hugs.

Some important The Majority Report clips
Ole Miss Students Taunt Protester With Racist Abuse
If you go to the link as I did, you can see just how over the top old school 1950s / 1960s racist these people are. I can not understand younger people in this day and age being so stupid as the use the slurs and name calling of fellow humans because of skin color. Even worse the governor was supportive saying he was proud of the racists. Republican Governor of Mississippi Tate Reeves also posted on X that the group of counter-protestors “warms my heart.” Users on X reacted to the video of the students and Governor Tate Reeves’s proclamation of support for the counter-protestors: This is the world that tRump inspired and help flourish in the US. Hugs. Scottie
Los Angeles Magazine reports:
A video was posted on X Thursday of a group of counter-protestors at the University of Mississippi — or Ole Miss — shouting and making monkey noises towards a Black woman who was part of a group protesting the war in Gaza.
Another bystander at the university uploaded a video of the students shouting “Lizzo! Lizzo! — in reference to the pop/hip-hop singer — and “f**k you fatass, f**k you bitch” to the same woman.
Republican Governor of Mississippi Tate Reeves posted on X that the group of counter-protestors “warms my heart.” The shocking video earned praise from Republican legislator Rep. Mike Collins, who posted the video and wrote “Ole Miss taking care of business.”

Ashton Pittman adds on Threads: “Hundreds of frat boys showed up to counter protest a small group of ~50 pro-Palestine protestors on the UM campus, with some frat boys throwing food, drinks and bottles at them. Others waved Trump flags and flipped the protestors off.”
Some more out right Israeli government lies and Lies About Consensus In Jewish Communities Around Zionism
anti-protestor misinformation from the majority report and Vaush.
There is an incredible push to paint the pro-Palestinian protestors as anti-Semitic, anti-Jewish. It is a desperate attempt to justify what the Israeli government is doing. And media is allowing themselves to be used. The protestors include Jewish students, and even one of the chief of police of one police department that was removing protestors at one college said the students were cooperative and peaceful, offering no resistance or violence. The violence at the arrests are being done by the police and in one case the violence was started when the pro-Israeli groups showed up and attacked the protestors. The campus security was overwhelmed and retreated and it took police far too long, hours before they showed up to protect the protestors and restore order. The police wanted the violence and mayhem, they wanted the pro-Palestinian protestors injured. History has shown other times this was done, protestors against the Vietnam War were treated this way, and Kent State was where college kids were gunned down by National Guard troops something the Speaker of the House Mike Johnson just called for now, the Iraq war started by the US protestors were treated this way. The students have the right to protest, republicans don’t like that and have been pressuring the universities / colleges to stop / end the protests, or they will cut funding or some other punitive measure. I don’t know if you will want to watch all of them, or do it the way I did and watch some over a few days while doing other things. Hugs. Scottie
