    don’t know why it’s taken this long for Puerto Ricans to realize that Trump and the filth he surrounds himself with don’t give a damn about them, but better late than never I guess

    also black people watermelon “jokes” are so tired and played out…u will still have a few black people cooning for Trump, but they’re not the brightest bulbs in the basket

    Washington — Threat actors are likely to leverage claims of election fraud to drive election-related violence, according to a federal bulletin obtained by CBS News.

    "Some individuals are calling for violence as a response to election fraud narratives, primarily targeting election officials and populations that threat actors perceive as threatening the integrity of the 2024 general election," the bulletin says.

    The bulletin, which was published Monday by the Department of Homeland Security, warned that online forums used by domestic violent extremists contain threats of violence against election officials and infrastructure "to prevent perceived fraud or to retaliate against it." Many of the posts are promoting narratives about election fraud linked to mail-in ballots or electronic voting machines, it said.

    "Some individuals motivated by this narrative have stated their intent online to intimidate voters or elections staff through surveillance of election infrastructure or personnel, including by armed individuals," the bulletin continued. "Some of these online users have encouraged violence against ideological opponents related to the use of mail-in voting while others promoted methods of sabotaging ballot drop boxes. Other individuals are using online forums to call for violence against local election officials in response to allegations of fraud."

    Federal investigators believe there are several factors that could increase threat actors' perceptions of election fraud, including "a contested or close election, variations in state election laws and regulations impacting the release of results, unforeseen events that delay vote counting, or technological or administrative errors impacting vote counting processes."

    The warning comes as ballot boxes have been set on fire in Portland, Oregon, and Vancouver, Washington, destroying hundreds of ballots. A number of mail-in ballots were also damaged when a U.S. Postal Service mailbox was recently set on fire in Phoenix, Arizona. The incidents are under investigation.

    A joint intelligence bulletin issued earlier this month by the Department of Homeland Security and FBI warned of the potential for domestic violent extremists "with election-related grievances" to target political candidates and elected officials in the coming weeks. It said domestic extremists "pose a threat of violence to a range of targets directly and indirectly associated with elections through at least the presidential inauguration" on Jan. 20, 2025.

    A Department of Homeland Security spokesperson said Monday that the U.S. remains in a "heightened" threat environment.

    "The Department continues to advise federal, state, and local partners to remain vigilant to potential threats and encourages the public to report any suspicious activity to local authorities," the spokesperson said.

    There is a lot of tone-deafness going on here. I think this exists almost any time there is an issue with someone being called out for racist remarks/jokes etc.

    If you are close to someone, whatever they are comfortable with is fine. But just because they haven't corrected you, doesn't mean they are actually comfortable with it. If you are unsure, ask. If they are fine with it, and they know you and your motivation, then it's fine when you are with that person. It's like the lesson from @Xopher 's story.

    Because it is okay in that context with that person doesn't mean it's always okay. It doesn't mean there's a free pass in to use whatever word or make whatever jokes in public or with people you don't know. If you aren't sure, then ask.

    Also, if you mistakenly think it's okay but others get offended, then make the correction. Be respectful. It doesn't have to be a big deal. But when there is genuine malice behind it (like at the Trump rally) it generally isn't okay.

    The issue grows when people try and defend their actions. It isn't about whether the joke maker thinks it's okay. It's about if the people who are the brunt of the joke or comment think it's okay.

    But in many of these cases people try and use a situation where one person did something to think it should be a blanket rule of what is or isn't okay.

    Well Trump had that covered when he made the joke about his white skin needing to become more tan (aka brown) to be beautiful.

    The fear factor comes to play that you accept someone like Trump and what he believes in....

    At the end of the day he has no respect for any Black/African American... It's like watching Tales From the Hood.....

    "Crazy K meets an inmate who happens to be a homicidal white supremacist that raves about killing black people and the end of days for blacks.

    This angers Crazy K and causes him to punch him in the face. The man then asks Crazy K the race of the victims he killed, silencing Crazy K.


    The man grows fond of him and he tells him that there will be a few black people who will be spared as long as they think like him. "

    This was a movie, but it also tells the truth.. The same as the jews with Jesus...

    You are seeing everything right in front of you, but yet you still ignore it.

    I personally like the Kevin Hart is so small when his ancestors picked cotton, they called it deadlifting. This guy is hilarious.
