Neiman Marcus closed its downtown Dallas flagship yesterday. The store played a notable role in the history of desegregation in Dallas during the 1960s. Previously, Black shoppers across the US could enter department stores, but they weren't allowed to try on clothes before purchasing without adhering to certain conditions.... For instance, they had to try on clothes over their clothes, put on protective covers when trying on hats, or weren't allowed to make returns once they purchased clothes and brought them home. These policies stemmed from the racist fear that white customers would refuse merchandise previously worn by Black shoppers. The downtown Neiman Marcus flagship was one of the first major Dallas businesses that broke with these practices. In 1961, the company desegregated its Zodiac Room, a swanky restaurant frequented by Dallas elites. Neiman Marcus later welcomed Black shoppers without restrictions. These victories were achieved through the efforts of Civil Rights activists, along with support from Neiman Marcus president Stanley Marcus, who was an early advocate for desegregation in Dallas. The Neiman Marcus store manager purportedly warned Marcus that he would ruin his business — and indeed, some shoppers closed their accounts — but he stuck with his decision. At the time of the flagship's closure, the Main Street store had been open for 112 years.show more

Friends, the level of deception we are uncovering is just staggering. In this short clip, Miss Denise Boggs shares a truly heartbreaking phone call she had with Marcus. After Jonathan stood up for his daughter, Marcus called Denise because Rachel had told him that the forensic counselor "completely exonerated" Josh. But Denise had to speak the truth to him. That it was a LIE! She could not confirm what Rachel was saying. Rachel lied directly to her own father to cover for Josh. Denise shares how deeply this grieved Marcus. He was so incredibly heartbroken over the deception, asking, "Why would she tell me that?" Denise even believes that Marcus ultimately died of a broken heart because the pain of this betrayal and the lies from his own daughter were just too much to bear. We will continue to speak the truth and expose these wicked works of darkness! Please watch and share this powerful, heartbreaking clip. 👇

As if Dominique Alexander’s rap sheet and the findings of his organization being fraudulent weren’t enough, according to multiple sources within the PD, Alexander had an affair with former Police Chief Renee Hall. During the George Floyd protests, also known as the “summer of love,” the Dallas PD appointed their new chief of police, Chief Renee Hall. She was the first woman and one of the few African American women to hold that position. Prior to Dallas, she was the Deputy Chief of the Detroit Police Department. You may ask how was she appointed? Dallas City Manager T.C. Broadnax quietly hired a panel to appoint the new police chief. One of those on the panel was none other than Dominique Alexander. Why was a convicted felon and someone who hates law enforcement as much as Alexander placed on a panel of 56 people from various neighborhoods to pick the next police chief? The Dallas Police Association was against Dominique Alexander being one of the 56. This appointment came AFTER NGAN planned the protest march in downtown Dallas just one year prior, which ended with five officers losing their lives. While Chief Renee Hall was in her position, she regularly met with Dominique Alexander regarding “protests and other matters”. Not only was he on the panel, but she also frequently positioned him prominently in an advisory role for the Citizens Police Oversight Board. During this time, Alexander was in a relationship with Keyaira Sanders, the same woman he domestically abused. Dominique Alexander often used his affiliation with Chief Rene Hall and DA John Creuzot to intimidate Sanders. He told her that no one would believe her because he was friends with them. However, according to multiple sources within the PD at the time, Dominique Alexander was allegedly having an affair with Chief Renee Hall. Once this allegation became public, confirmed by four separate police and civilian sources at Dallas Police, Hall left office within twenty-four hours after serving three years. T.C. Broadnax is now the Austin city manager, earning $470,017.60 a year. On top of his base salary, Broadnax’s employment agreement with the city includes thousands of dollars in extra compensation, including a cellphone allowance and a temporary housing allowance. Why has Dallas always catered to this man? A man who hates law enforcement, injured a baby, domestically abused his girlfriend, committed theft, evaded arrest—the list goes on. Based on my findings, I would say money and fear. Dallas needs to remove Dominique Alexander from ALL activities in Dallas involving elected officials and place his fraudulent organization on a ban list. Image - Popular meme that circulated around Dallas during 2020. Videos - Dominique Alexander Protesting and taunting Dallas mayor Eric Johnson at his home. He did this while being allowed to critique the dallas police department.

Shane Battier says Pat Riley had the Heat LOCKED IN for the opening night game vs Dallas on Christmas: “When I joined the Heat in 2012, that team was galvanized by losing in a very public way to the Dallas Mavericks. I’ll never forget we were playing Dallas on opening day…Pat Riley sat us down on the floor and he said ‘just remember these guys (Mavs) have your championship, they drank your champagne, they pissed in your streets, they took your women home, that should’ve been you — never forget that’ and the edge of that team before that game — I never felt a group of men that angry and pissed off…I looked around I’m like ‘oh yeah we’re winning’ we go out and smack Dallas — the rest is history.” (via Glue Guys)

On This Day — May 28, 1948 Israel appointed a Jewish American badass as its first general in nearly 2,000 years — David “Mickey” Marcus. Marcus was a tough Brooklyn kid, a West Point graduate, and a decorated U.S. Army colonel and war hero who volunteered to help the newborn Jewish state on the brink of annihilation. He had already lived a legendary life: helped take down Lucky Luciano, parachuted into Normandy with the 101st Airborne, liberated Nazi death camps, and worked on the Nuremberg trials. Then, in 1948, he walked away from a promising U.S. Army career, took the fake name “Michael Stone,” and sailed to Israel to turn the ragtag Haganah into a real army. To turn it into the IDF. See him immortalized by the great Kirk Douglas in the clip below from the 1966 movie Cast a Giant Shadow. On May 28, David Ben-Gurion gave Marcus command of the Jerusalem front. The situation was dire: 100,000 Jews in Jerusalem were under siege. The Arab Legion (with British officers) had cut the only supply road, starving the city. Food was rationed to near nothing. Water was cut off. People were eating mallow leaves and facing surrender. Marcus didn’t flinch. He helped design and build the legendary Burma Road — a desperate, hand-carved bypass through mountains and ravines under enemy fire. Convoys, jeeps pushed by hand, and even donkeys carried supplies over terrain many thought impossible. That road broke the siege and saved Jerusalem. He trained fighters, designed command structures, and brought American military know-how to men and women who had just survived the Holocaust and refused to die again. On June 10, hours before a ceasefire, Mickey Marcus was tragically killed by friendly fire — a young sentry didn’t recognize him in the dark. He was wrapped in a white sheet, walking back to his quarters. He never saw the full victory he helped make possible. Israel buried its first general with full honors. His body was returned to West Point, where his tombstone reads: “A Soldier for All Humanity.” Mickey Marcus is the ultimate “Never Again” hero: a man who had everything in America but chose to risk it all so Jews would never again be defenseless. From a Brooklyn street fighter to Israel’s first general since the Maccabees. That’s the spirit that built the Jewish state.

These young ladies were claiming the owner was being rude to them and kicked them out. They even posted it on their social media with only their side of what happened. If anyone looked into it they would learn that the staff asked one of the young ladies to stop sharing her alcoholic drinks with her underage friend. They kept doing it and that’s when the owner intervened. I would have called the cops on them, I wouldn’t risk losing my liquor license for anybody. Was the owner overreacting or under reacting? Besides the mooch owner I worked for last time, I normally had pretty chill bosses but one stuck out that rubbed me the wrong way. He was always backhanded with his compliments and always was trying to come up with these wild ideas to make more money. One time he came up with the idea that the driver fee that the store normally paid to the driver was going to be pocketed by the store as a convenience fee to the driver. That would make the driver rely more and more on tips in an area that didn’t tip well anyways. What was bad about this was he knew it would create backlash so instead of telling the workers himself, he has the managers do it for him. So I had to hold a meeting with the workers and tell the drivers the store was going to be charging them to deliver for us. I also made sure I emphasized that it wasn’t my idea however I was forced to enforce this, it didn’t go over well. Most of the drivers walked out. I Calle the owner and told him we were doing pick up only and I think he should reconsider his stance on the delivery fee. After a week of slow sales he finally came to his senses and reconsidered. But this time he came in person to tell us the good news, very convenient for him being the hero.

NEW: 8 teens from Philadelphia arrested in Florida after stealing thousands of dollars of merchandise from a Dick's Sporting Goods. The teens were in town for a youth football tournament and thought they could get away with the crime. The store manager called deputies while the theft was in progress. The teens were caught on camera putting the merchandise in bags in the middle of the store before two of them walked out with them. The teens, all aged 14 or 15, were supposed to have their championship game later that day, but did not participate due to the arrests. Their team lost miserably.

LACK OF ACCOUNTABILITY.. Let’s deal with Umars talking points here They do hold some truth But they lack self accountability And that’s not fair to the black people Who didn’t go to jail And who didn’t sell dope And who didn’t leave their families So let’s look at this honestly! 1.) the black man didn’t have to leave the house in the 70s and leave the sisters Without a provider he chose too for whatever reason.. and she had to get on the system for help 2.) the black man should’ve created his own jobs instead of begging on the system That you identified as racist at the time To give you one Other groups of men did this 3.) they did put the crack in the community But you didn’t have to sell it That was a decision.. because everyone didn’t sell crack that was a participatory sport 4.) the crime Bill came because Black American civilians who were honest hardworking people Were held hostage in their own community by black drug dealers And gangsters So black civilians begged for help For years and the democrats finally helped but the law that they put into effect was not perfect So Black men that participated In the dope game caught heavy time

Dallas police officer arrested for evading arrest in prostitution case ... DALLAS - A Dallas police officer was arrested recently for evading arrest in a case involving the solicitation of a prostitute. Sr. Cpl. Joshua Gonzalez turned himself in to the Dallas County jail on Tuesday to face charges. Gonzalez has been with the Dallas Police Department since August 2010 and is part of the Criminal Intelligence Division. According to an arrest warrant affidavit, the alleged crime happened near Harry Hines Boulevard this past October. Dallas police officers in a marked patrol unit spotted a black Ford Fusion on the side of the road with two females who appeared to be prostitutes. As the officers approached, the vehicle sped off. The officers followed the vehicle for about 15 seconds with lights and sirens on before deciding to "let'em go," according to the affidavit. They shared the vehicle's license plate information with investigators. Investigators later learned that the vehicle was registered to the City of Dallas and assigned to the police department's Criminal Intelligence Division. Video cameras, police fleet records, cellphone records, and witness statements helped police identify Gonzalez as the driver. Police believe he "intentionally and knowingly evaded detention with a motor vehicle when he immediately fled from Dallas police officers who attempted to conduct a lawful traffic stop," the affidavit states. Gonzalez was placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of an internal investigation.

I have said from the outset of my campaign that I will be a Mayor who is totally fair and I meant it. I have just arrived at The Mill debate in Manchester to see the independent Candidate Marcus Farmer being refused entry. He was not even invited to the hustings. He has emailed The Mill several times. I interjected and requested that he be allowed to participate, and both the LibDem and Green candidates agreed. But The Mill still refused him entry. Their response when asked was that it was incumbent on him to ask to participate, but no other candidate had to ask. When Marcus became frustrated at the situation, they accused him of being intimidating. I didn’t find him intimidating at all. If we can’t all participate in a fair, inclusive, democratic debate, then none of us should. So on that basis, I’m out.

I wouldn’t normally use Twitter for anything non-football related but just wanted to share the video below of Glen Hansard in The Spirit Store in February just gone – not singing, as so many people enjoyed over the years, but supporting. I had the pleasure of seeing Glen in ‘The Store’ in its early days and while he had gone onto much bigger things over the years, he never forgot grassroots Irish music, its venues and supporting those on the way up, including the likes of Dundalk’s own David Keenan and that night, Rowan Murphy. That was a practice that had continued with the likes of Josh O’Keeffe more recently but there were countless others who he helped shine a spotlight on. February’s gig – one of several he played around then with The Frames in some of the country’s best small venues – felt like a celebration of The Spirit Store and if Mark or Derek could have picked a performer for such an occasion there was arguably no better headliner for it than Glen, who was also a huge support to the likes of Women’s Aid in Dundalk over the years. There are probably countless small stories of his generosity, including arguably being one of the main driving forces behind the Christmas Busk on Grafton Street, to the point that whether you were into his music or not it was hard not to appreciate all he did for the industry here. He was in many ways the godfather of Irish music – supporting it at home and abroad and giving so much back in return. He was truly one of a kind. A ‘Star, star’ that really shone. Sympathy to Glen’s family and friends in the music industry. His legacy is enormous and his support was invaluable. RIP.

Danny Sheehan says the Psionic program recruited children to bring down actual ET craft because military pilots were having trouble. He says there has been substantial misconduct with the children that have been recruited And also the occupants of the ET craft Source -“New Thinking Allowed 🔗 in comments Danny -“Now the other problem is, of course, that that the, the fact that these vehicles are run by, by te telepathic communication on the part of the pilot, that they were in fact having substantial difficulties in having the trained pilots that they have in the Air Force, for example, and in the Navy, that somehow they weren't, they weren't capable of the kind of consciousness that was necessary to communicate and navigate these craft.” “And so what they did is they went out and they started trying to recruit people as you point out that they've actually gone and tried to find children who demonstrate these kind of psychic capabilities, and that they began a, a sub-program of, this entire effort to try to gear up people who have these capabilities and recruit them to actually be pilots for these, these craft. And, and so that they could bring down the actual ET craft themselves.” “Not a mockup of them, or not something that's like them, but the actual craft themselves. And, and have young children be trained over years to learn how to fly these things because of the high levels of consciousness and psychic abilities that they've had. Now, I'm, I'm not at liberty to go into some of the details about this, because the means by which I've acquired this information put certain people at risk of, of revealing who they are. But there have been some very substantial, there's been some very substantial misconduct involved in working with these children and trying to train them to, to pilot these craft.” “And there have been some substantial misconduct with regard to the way they've treated the occupants of these craft to the point of capturing them, killing them, you know, subjecting them to all kinds of coercive activities, you know, and, and our new Paradigm Institute is working with people in the Justice Department now, the Federal Justice Department, to try to bring about a major investigation to determine what some of those activities have been so that we can purge those activities from the present system that they're working with and, and that's a, that's a whole kind of darker dimension of this thing.”

He says there has been substantial misconduct with the children that have been recruited And also the occupants of the ET craft Source -“New Thinking Allowed 🔗 in comments Danny -“Now the other problem is, of course, that that the, the fact that these vehicles are run by, by te telepathic communication on the part of the pilot, that they were in fact having substantial difficulties in having the trained pilots that they have in the Air Force, for example, and in the Navy, that somehow they weren't, they weren't capable of the kind of consciousness that was necessary to communicate and navigate these craft.” “And so what they did is they went out and they started trying to recruit people as you point out that they've actually gone and tried to find children who demonstrate these kind of psychic capabilities, and that they began a, a sub-program of, this entire effort to try to gear up people who have these capabilities and recruit them to actually be pilots for these, these craft. And, and so that they could bring down the actual ET craft themselves.” “Not a mockup of them, or not something that's like them, but the actual craft themselves. And, and have young children be trained over years to learn how to fly these things because of the high levels of consciousness and psychic abilities that they've had. Now, I'm, I'm not at liberty to go into some of the details about this, because the means by which I've acquired this information put certain people at risk of, of revealing who they are. But there have been some very substantial, there's been some very substantial misconduct involved in working with these children and trying to train them to, to pilot these craft.” “And there have been some substantial misconduct with regard to the way they've treated the occupants of these craft to the point of capturing them, killing them, you know, subjecting them to all kinds of coercive activities, you know, and, and our new Paradigm Institute is working with people in the Justice Department now, the Federal Justice Department, to try to bring about a major investigation to determine what some of those activities have been so that we can purge those activities from the present system that they're working with and, and that's a, that's a whole kind of darker dimension of this thing.”

"Brandon Nimmo was a great Met, a prideful Met. Someone who I talked often about with him, his legacy as a Met and when he put that uniform on, he really did look at himself as somebody that not just would be a leader of this team for years to come, but somebody that one day might have his No. 9 in the rafters, retired." Steve Gelbs reacts to the Mets trading Brandon Nimmo to the Rangers for Marcus Semien:

Could put similar symbolic moment for the transformation of Britain as maybe the election of Blair or death of Diana. In football though (as it is used to advance ‘a certain version of Britain’) you may remember the 2021 Euros where three black players were selected to take penalties - idea was that when they scored they would become the figurative ‘Three Lions’ on the England football shirt crest. Of course they missed and a few rude comments on Twitter about it later there was a very very sublimated immune system activated anti-racist organised campaign to defend and lionise the players, Marcus Rashford especially, as if they’d just died heroes at the Battle of Trafalgar

The CEO of Lululemon has stood by his company’s decision to fire employees who called the police when the store was being robbed. CEO Calvin McDonald says that the athletic wear company has a “zero-tolerance policy” for employees “engaging during a theft” and said that two female employees who called police during the robbery broke company policy. The two women were fired without receiving severance pay. The two employees in a Georgia store called police when 3 masked men started stealing and reportedly attempted to engage with them and follow them out of the store. While the CEO said they stood by the decision a spokesperson for the brand said they were fired for “physically engaging with the perpetrators which put their lives and the safety of our guests and other employees at risk.” Source: CNBC/ NY Post

One of the attorneys on the “dream team” for Karmelo Anthony is Justin Moore, a former Dallas County assistant district attorney. In 2015, Moore was terminated from his position following an arrest that received significant media attention. The incident was captured on Dallas police dashcam footage and was widely reported by local news outlets at the time. According to police records, Moore initially refused to exit his vehicle and told officers he was still searching for his driver’s license. The report states that after an officer removed him from the vehicle, Moore responded by asking, “Did you just grab me?” Records further indicate that Moore refused to participate in field sobriety testing and was subsequently arrested on suspicion of driving while intoxicated. Police reports state that Moore accused officers of working for a racist department and alleged they were members of the K K K. He also reportedly referred to officers as “idiots” and described the department as “sad.” According to the report, Moore additionally called a Black police sergeant who responded to the scene an “Uncle Tom.” The arrest and subsequent release of the dashcam footage ultimately led to Moore’s dismissal from the Dallas County District Attorney’s Office.

ALERT: Protesters demand that a convenience store be shut down after a black woman was charged with assault after being beaten up for allegedly assaulting an employee and causing property damage. Shaleece Carter, 32, entered the Six Stars convenience store in Cahokia Heights, Illinois, on Friday and got into an altercation with an employee after being accused of shoplifting. Shaleece then allegedly spat on the employee and broke the front door window of the convenience store. One of the store employees was seen allegedly hitting and dragging Shaleece out of the store. Officers initially arrested the store employee but have since arrested Shaleece on one count of felony criminal damage to property and one misdemeanor count of battery. The reversal of arrests has sparked outrage in the community, with over 50 protestors calling for the store to be shut down. Jerry Quarles, one of the supporters, said, "We should not support businesses that do not support us, but they tolerate us… I think they should have gotten police officers involved rather than taking the matter into their own hands."

Try to name one leader alive today who would do this. In 325 BC, in the middle of a desert that was killing his army, Alexander the Great was handed the only water his men had found for miles. He had brought them there himself. Coming home from India there were safer roads, but he chose the Gedrosian Desert, in what is now southern Iran and Pakistan. The Greek historian Arrian is clear that he knew what he was doing. He went that way because almost nobody had ever brought an army through it alive: legend said the queen Semiramis came out the other side with twenty men, and Cyrus the Great with seven. Alexander wanted to beat them both. The crossing took sixty days. Arrian writes that the suffering on that march was out of all proportion to anything his troops had endured in Asia. They moved at night, and men fell asleep where they collapsed. The sick were left at the roadside, because there was nobody to carry them and no time to stop. Somewhere in the middle of it, a few soldiers went looking for water and found a tiny trickle in a gully. They scraped up what they could, tipped it into a helmet, and carried it back to their king... Every man watching him was dying of thirst. So was he. "Alexander, with a word of thanks for the gift, took the helmet and, in full view of his troops, poured the water on the ground." There was not enough for all of them, so he would not take what he could not give. And Arrian records what that did to an army of men who could barely stand: "So extraordinary was the effect of this action that the water wasted by Alexander was as good as a drink for every man in the army." They got up, and they marched. We now live in an age of leaders who start wars their sons will never fight, who ask for sacrifices they would never dream of making themselves, who are always the first to be spared and the last to pay the price. Alexander was often ruthless and deeply flawed, yes, but he was a true leader and he knew that real power has never come from standing above your people, but from going thirsty beside them…

GRIMSBY, ONTARIO - NIAGARA REGION - For the third time within about four months, Harmony Jewellers in Grimsby has been the target of robbers. But tactics used by the culprits seem to be escalating. Instead of using sledgehammers to smash the windows of the Main Street West business or walking in during store hours, those responsible this time drove a vehicle into the storefront. About 11:25 a.m. Thursday, Apr. 24 a black pickup truck crashed in reverse through the front window. Video of the scene taken seconds after the crash and sent to Niagara This Week appeared to show four masked males fleeing the store amid the blasting of the store’s alarm and shouts from people on the street. The robbers appeared to be carrying bags and at least one sledgehammer. A man could be heard on the video shouting “There they go!” as the males ran down a sidewalk and then across the street into a waiting white SUV-style vehicle. The video showed another man chasing the suspects and smashing the windshield and side windows of the getaway car before it pulled into traffic, made a U-turn and headed east on Main Street West at a high rate of speed. On Jan. 18, six people smashed the front entrance of the business with small sledgehammers, entered the store, broke into several display cases and snatched merchandise, police said. The suspects quickly left the store and fled in a truck, which was later recovered in Hamilton. On Feb. 15, three people, estimated to be aged 16 to 18, attempted to rob the jewelry store. At about 3 p.m., they entered the store wearing masks and carrying backpacks. Their suspicious activity prompted store employees to implement theft prevention measures. Police said the measures stopped the suspects from entering any further and they left the store with no items stolen.

These suspects Polk'ed around and found out -- we don't tolerate theft here. On Friday, June 26, 2026, PCSO deputies arrested 12 adults and 3 juveniles who were stealing food and drinks at the Davenport Wawa located on Old Lake Wilson Road; all of the suspects have been staying in an AirBNB visiting Polk from other counties in Florida. A 16th suspect was arrested during the investigation for interfering with deputies while they were detaining the theft suspects. Store employees contacted the Sheriff's Office after observing the suspects walking around the store, concealing bottled drinks and some food within their clothes. The group of people appeared to all know each other, and arrived at the store in three separate vehicles - a BMW, a Tesla, and a Honda Accord. The suspects, a mix of young adults and juveniles, were taking turns going into and out of the store during a 15-minute time span, some of them eating and drinking the items that they stole. Read the release:
