Who is the alternative candidate that will make the situation better and not even worse?

I found this local PD post on Instagram about it, lots of his neighbors are in the comment section, seems like most knew it was him doing it and one person said King shot his dog in front of him and he had a video of it happening. There are maybe 10 houses on that small residential block so it couldn’t have been that much of a mystery to take 10 years

They wanted 26,000$ to extend the Cable line 1000feet, from the end of their line, from our neighbors house to ours. This was in a rural town in NY that was supposed to get 100% access to spectrum (only other option is phone line Frontier). The state gave them a ridiculous amount of money to do this, and nope can’t be bothered. It’s 2024 we still have the same phone line Internet there that we had in 1998…

I want everyone to know the pain of seeing young black kids playing on our shitty little blacktop court yard with two broken ass courts like a fucking prison yard. And them being stuck behind that fence watching white kids run track, play football, soccer, just having a field. Before Katrina the two schools were a public middle and highschool that shared a sports field in-between them. Then the rightwing and left and everyone of them ghouls took advantage of a city crying for help and they murdered it. Fuck anyone that says a charter, private, or religious organization should take the place of our public schools, and get public funding. Instead of ranting I’m gonna type RANT🤬😤😠😥😮‍💨😢😞🤬🤬🫤😡🙄😥RANT RANT and y’all get it. I’ve been to the border wall between San Diego and Tijuana and it felt like that, people so close and completely shut away from me, and an oppressive presence watching over keeping you from taking those few steps to get close and talk through the barrier. I was young and naive still and thought that the civil rights movement won. I learned I was so wrong. Felt like Jack Nicholson in Easy Rider totally out of my element in a world I didn’t understand and about to be beat down by the realities of the deep seething malice under every action of the local and state government against the good and benefit of the people. Latoya Cantrell is a fucking criminal fucking off in Germany or some where that’s done nothing but criticize and mock and ignore the citizens of new Orleans while enriching her self through the office. She should be following trump in a corruption trial.

I taught in Louisiana in an open enrollment charter school. The charter system there might as well be legal segregation. We were around 90% black students, while the much bigger nicer test-in charter school that we were right next to and could see through our windows all day was like 95% white. Guess what school got all the money, athletic fields, etc. our school didn’t even have a gym in the decrepit 120 year old building that was falling apart around us. The two schools were supposed to share the athletic field between them when they transitioned from public schools to charter (post Katrina). The white school built a fence around it blocking access to our students.
The whole charter system was a mess the entire time I worked with it.

I grew up protestant-ish, we stopped going to church in the early 2000s. I’ve been to a few Catholic masses since then, it’s like going to an exercise class. Sit down, stand up, kneel, stand up, sit down… I was watching everyone around me to know what to do haha at least you get a little snack and wine. I learned the sign of the cross from Video games though, up, down, left, right, a,b,a,b, Amen.

Between when I posted and now I’ve done some reading on her Wikipedia and news articles. She definitely isn’t a Minor character anymore, it’s looking possible that she’ll be Trump’s VP pick and the reason for her isolation from the press and extended public appearances is strategic to allow her to continue her agenda of turning her state into the prototype for their vision for the rest of the country, while trying to remain obscure and forgotten in the national news cycle until trump announces her at the 11th hour. She has huge support in Arkansas and a dad’s governor/senator legacy to bolster her name. Arkansas support brought the Clinton’s to the national stage, I wonder if the same will happen with Sanders? I genuinely fear her being in the office of vice president and possibly becoming president. It feels in line with “Project 2025” (I’m going to read it tonight finally, may post back with info from that) . She is an absolutely Cold and unfeeling person wearing a compassionate human mask from the dollar store. If she gets power she will abolish many government agencies like the department of education and reverse policies on everything the Biden administration enacted. Trump is a loud flamboyant idiot that brags about his crimes and plans, while she follows the Putin model of strictly controlling the people and Press around her. That’s what scares me about her, that and the already obvious argument from her supporters about her dissenters being discriminating against people with disabilities (her eye condition).
Remember she loosened child labor laws, and the kids crave for the mines memes.

 TLDR!
Sorry for this text block, my tldr is Sarah Huckabee Sanders seems to be a serious person to pay attention to, rather than all the goons screaming for Media attention.

Are you in the US or another country? She’s not really important except she was Trump’s press secretary for a while and is the daughter of senator Mike Huckabee, so she has some influence and political sway with the Trump supporters, and likely will try to interfere with voting in Arkansas this November. 500+ people in Congress, 50 governors, the judges, all the people around the president and with Trump’s Trials… There are way too many minor characters to keep track of all their nonsense, it’s like a soap opera that’s been going on for 250 years.
