Modern Nat Turner insures Dallas cops cannot assail Black lives with impunity

The conceivability that climate change, torture, or Pope’s Catholicism isn’t.

A few of the ‘Let’s Help the Vets’ crooks get caught at last!
There is a lot more of this sort of fraud surrounding our US military than just this one charity. In fact, our whole military-industrial complex is built on fraud. Help Hospitalized Veterans, Veterans Charity, Accused Of Squandering Millions.
