Dean Obeidallah points out that just as Nikki Haley was gaslighting the nation by saying there's no racism in the US, white supremacist Payton Gendron was being sentenced for murdering Black people in a racially motivated mass shooting.
He says that Haley's "lie plays well the GOP base. If racism has ended, then they can say there's no need to teach Black history in school or face that white supremacist thinking is on the rise.

Now Uber has cut driver pay by 40 percent. I no longer have a situation that makes any sense whatsoever. And I'm sick of the abuse from Uber, other drivers around Pittsburgh, and from passengers.

The French pronounced it “aw” but spelled it “ac”. The British heard it pronounced “aw” so they spelled it that way. Whichever way you see it spelled, technically it should always be pronounced “aw”. The word Mackinac/Mackinaw comes from from the Ojibwe word "Michinimackikong" which means great connection to land or place.

Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
