Because this country likes to forget what it’s capable of, I take it as a duty to remind us. We sit at the brink of the largest decimation of Black political power since the fall of Reconstruction — a Second Redemption. And the end of Black political power means the end of democracy itself.

Morning everyone. Do you know that your President just exempted himself, his family, and all his family's companies from our tax laws? You are subject to the law. Now he is not. No one should not pretend this is okay or normal. It's an ongoing constitutional crisis.

They're stealing billions of your money to pay off violent right-wing psychos while doing everything in their power to spike gas up to $5 a gallon, make groceries into a luxury and hand the country over to the oligarchs who want to permanently replace you.

I am outraged that a swastika flag was raised overlooking Washington Square Park.
This hateful antisemitic act was meant to spread fear among and intimidate Jewish New Yorkers. It has no place in our city.
Our administration is committed to fighting antisemitism in all its forms and protecting the safety of Jewish New Yorkers.
The NYPD Hate Crime Task Force is investigating this despicable act, and l am confident those responsible will be held accountable.

With so much political news ongoing about the US south and its return to Jim Crow, I will like to share a recent PBS documentary I have started watching. As an immigrant who lives in the US South, this was very informational as much as a painful watch: youtu.be/jHAauml9rV4?...

I have a strict policy of NEVER giving Donald Trump the benefit of the doubt. I assume he's corrupt and lying until proven otherwise. I challenge anyone to convince me this is unfair or unjustified.

I don't think the "it was fake" takes are a sign of mass conspiracy brain. I think people have rightly assessed Trump, over decades now, as a liar, a cheat, and a Not Serious Person, and it seems fitting to respond to events that threaten his existence with the same casual disregard for the truth.

Maybe I'm too influenced by Hollywood, but I thought when a US President's attacked they get bundled away into a bunker or somewhere super secure until the situation is fully understood. Not back on TV making speeches. (Of course, in other Hollywood films they pick up a gun...)

This time they hired a Black/Black presenting person to come for Trump. They are really desperate for those riots to pop off and maybe if MAGA attacks and kills The Blacks for coming for Trump, those riots can finally begin.

My Subway Take! There are so many“ex pats” who have hung around for generations, enjoying the expat package lifestyle and the presumed idea that they are more capable than the sons and daughters of the soil. Indeed, this has been a permanent fixture with so many formerly occupied nations.

Donald Trump is a reflection of what America has become: a nation comprised primarily of uneducated, arrogant, racist buffoons without a conscience or even basic social skills, scamming their way thru life with impunity while believing that laws apply only to other people— never to them.

The Supreme Court ruled yesterday that the US Postal Service can't be sued for intentionally withholding and not delivering a person's mail, for any reason! So, if the USPS just decides not to deliver your absentee ballot because you're a suspected democrat, you have no recourse.

Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.

America is full of churches where you can say Jesus loved guns, and wants you to be rich, and where you can pick fights with the pope! JD Vance was free to stick with any of those! But he *deliberately chose to convert to Catholicism*, a branch of Christianity in which none of those things are true!
