A lot of people want to frame getting rid of laws that stop more affordable housing from being built as "deregulation". Getting rid of rules created specifically to enforce racial segregation is always the right move. We have to make it easier and cheaper to build more housing. That's it.

I do frequently wonder what the average citizen of the U.S. knows about Reconstruction. As Du Bois would later point out, the backlash of lost cause propaganda didn’t just create mass disinformation about the civil war itself, but about the opening for actual democracy that briefly came after it.

CDC won’t publish report showing covid shots cut likelihood of hospital visits
The report, which had cleared the agency’s scientific-review process, had been delayed. It now won’t be published at all, people familiar with the decision told The Post.

"Black women comprise 14% of the US population, but account for about 30% of homicides resulting from partner violence." I will never forget how my publication on sexual violence got rejected from a journal because a reviewer believed race (which I emphasized) was not a relevant factor.

Orbán's electoral crushing is a far greater achievement than most people outside Hungary realise. He systemically consolidated power for 16 years, fixed the electoral map, abused govt power for political purposes & censored media. The hurdles that Hungarians overcame for this moment were immense.

I'm a bit of a broken record on this, but usurping the power of the purse isn't just one constitutional violation among all the many others. It is, uniquely and singularly, the death of constitutional government altogether. Game over, end of story, you now live in an autocracy.

It is extremely wrong how Dems talking point on this is that paying TSA by EO is totally legal and he should have done it sooner. It is not legal, that $10B is only for border security and TSA is not border security. He's stealing the power of the purse, stop saying he should have done it sooner!

We spoke to Black women who started the Target boycott & who sustained it for a yr+. They'll likely never go back. Teacher Laverne Mickens put it like this: “[Black women] will say if & when it’s over. And I can tell you right now: That will be the 15th of never ever.” 19thnews.org/2026/03/targ...

For many Black women, the Target boycott is not over. It may never be.
A faith leader announced the end of a yearlong “Target fast,” but many Black women who helped launch the boycott say the movement wasn’t his to call off.

The killing of Alex Pretti and the grotesque lying was an overreach by the administration. They've paid a price and had to pull back a bit. But it's when there's some disarray that the democratic opposition needs to intensify the offensive, and turn a marginal tactical success into a major victory.

Calling the residents of Minnesota who have been shown documenting or attempting to witness ICE activities in our midst “protesting” is inaccurate. ICE is ubiquitous. We don’t go to ICE, we see it in our daily lives. Secondly, legal observing is our only recourse to defend ourselves. 👇🏻
