Supreme Court Justice Chief John Roberts has fulfilled his dream of gutting the Voting Rights Act. He was stayed & steady & played the long game to strip accomplishments of Black People who fought for Equality & Equity. Jim Crow 2.0 & Reconstruction is upon us. Know History & get in Community.

Did ANYONE in the Elected Democratic legislature read Project 2025? What's been stated in the book is happening NOW. We need our representatives to stop capitulating to norms of gov't & realize we're not in a gov't of norms. FIGHT for humanity & for ppl who elected you to help them live.

Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.
