Description
On this episode of The Mighty, we hear from Meidas contributor Boston Smalls who compares the recent terrorist attack in Highland Park on July 4th by a MAGA follower and the police killing of Jayland Walker in Akron, Ohio after a traffic stop. The white MAGA terrorist was detained without incident and Jayland Walker was shot 60 times. We can be complacent and accept that this is America or, we can get furious and take our country back from MAGA fascism. What will you choose?
