      Former President Donald Trump and his supporters have sought to portray Air Force veteran Ashli Babbitt, who died while wearing a Trump campaign flag wrapped around her shoulders like a cape, as a righteous martyr who was unjustly killed.http://apne.ws/36zFtJX

      In the months before her death, Babbitt had become consumed by pro-Trump conspiracy theories and posted angry screeds on social media. A Maryland woman also recounted to the @AP a 2016 road rage attack during which Babbitt repeatedly rammed her vehicle.http://apne.ws/uTvZBt4

      Celeste Norris told @AP in an exclusive interview that Babbitt hit her vehicle with an SUV and pounded on the window, challenging her to a fight. Norris says the bad blood between them began when Babbitt had an extramarital affair with Norris’ boyfriend.http://apne.ws/0FvKUBp

      A report from the Calvert County Sheriff’s Office shows Babbitt was charged with reckless endangerment and malicious destruction of property for the damage to Norris’ vehicle. Court records show those charges were later updated to include traffic offenses.http://apne.ws/5SuzsXB

      Babbitt admitted she collided with Norris' vehicle, but portrayed it as an accident. A judge acquitted Babbitt on the criminal charges.http://apne.ws/YJMFAkw

          Halfway through a window while in commission of a felony. Remember how Daniel Shaver was killed by a cop while just in a hotel hallway? That cop was acquitted.

          How do white women keep getting acquitted for violent shit they know for a fact they did? Seems like her own death could have been prevented if our justice system made white women face consequences for their actions instead of slapping them on the wrist and setting them loose.

          So… she was acquitted of a crime? And you published this? Who’s on your board of directors again?
