The real issue isn't left versus right. It's critical thinking versus a system that depends on you never developing it.

Apparently I cannot have a Threads account. I have been suspended there three separate times. I post very little, repost Black content focused on justice for Nolan Xavier Wells and the crop of strange fruit proliferating since January 2025.

This week’s email to the presidunce: Hi. Your failed war with Iran has seen to it a stable world economy is now tattered and fraying. Your failed diplomacy has seen trusting allies and partners shun this country. On your watch, women have been deprived of bodily autonomy.

Just got banned on Threads. I think it was my responses to Christian pride-month diatribes and I-love-Trumps. So it goes.

Back from my social media hiatus. What the hell, I added an X and a Truth Social account. The Truth Social one is already drawing the ire of the MAGA crowd who are online there. Yay me.

Wait, wait. Russia is selling oil to the US, from its tanker shadow fleet, to stabilize fuel prices in the US? The same Russia passing targeting information to Iran? The same Russia which invaded Ukraine? Make it make sense.

1. Epstein files. Now. Burn down everything that must be burned down. May the flames engulf those atop that pyramid. 2. The lesson of Minnesota to all of us: words are not enough. Let your presence demonstrate your resolve. 3. Vote. We will be able to vote. Do so.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter. I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

Marco Rubio tells us the US will control Venezuelan oil for years. I believe that is going to run shorter. November midterms ought to end that, assuming we can get some folks with a spine into office.

Out of curiosity, if Citizens United determined corporations are people, can we take out restraining orders on them? Hit them with SLAPP suits? Where do the individual corporations go to cast their personal, individual votes?

I used the White House contact form to express my anger at the undeclared war about to begin. I asked if these actions were from Vlad and Bebe’s playlist. Asked if the full and unconditional pardon of a convicted drug trafficker is hypocrisy. Waiting for an answer or two; hope it’s not a door knock.

All right, I’ll say it. Each and every step taken to dehumanize immigrants, particularly the abusive treatment of children to get to their parents, is creating a pool of people who will have revenge on their mind for the harms done to them in the name of the US government. 1/

Stolen because it is worth repeating: So if Jeffrey Epstein was arrested, jailed and died on Bill Barr’s watch as Attorney General, can we refer to the subsequent scandal as the Epstein-Barr Cover-up? 🤣

I wonder, but cannot prove, if the Epstein list is what enables Trump’s handlers to control Republicans in the House and Senate. Getting primaried would open those politicians to public disclosures. Trump is already known as an acquaintance of Epstein, so impact there is minimized. 1/

The USA must stop subsidizing and backstopping Israel. There has been no accountability for Israel’s retribution against both Hamas and the Palestinian people. Now we have been drawn, by Israel, into conflict with Iran. Still waiting for peace in the Ukraine, as well.

Just wondering if the Trump cabinet’s destruction of what are legally records that are to be retained, via the Signal app, places Signal in a position of complicity with the Trump cabinet’s destruction of those records?

We are at the point in America where the enforcement arm of the courts need to determine if they are acting on behalf of the judiciary or the executive. This decision is also imminent for the military. Trump is not executing his Constitutional requirements. Are his orders legal?
