Again: for Black Women, in particular, the ability to chose, a time and place to reproduce is a function of liberty. The most fundamental fact of enslavement was the Black Women had no control over their reproduction; in fact, their ability to reproduce was a key source of other’s wealth.

Somehow not everyone is aware of fact alluded to below. So one more time: John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, Amy Coney Barrett were all on GWBush 2000 'Florida Recount' team. (Which made GWB first prez in 112 yrs to 'win' after losing popular vote. Now they 'impartially' rule on our future.)

This is priceless. Check out how local news is reporting on Sen Eric Schmidt’s clown-show grilling of Jack Smith. They found Jack Smith at the game… “Top corner, section 109, row 1. In fact, that seat doesn’t even exist in Atlanta.”

This makes me hopeful. This number is aspirational but nowhere near out of reach: a working professional could realistically cash out their 401k and buy off a public official. Owning a senator is more attainable for most Americans than home ownership.

This didn't happen. What actually happened is that Russia deliberately bombed several American businesses in Ukraine. ​The Bunge oilseed plant was hit right after Senator Blumenthal's visit in a twisted demonstration of power.

One of the biggest failures of universities is some of the lowest hanging fruit. Make the case to communities and states: do you like having doctors and teachers? Bridges and computers? Yes?You can’t have them w/o universities. Universities are for everyone, not just the people who attend them.

here is the thing. if you tell me that you believe that race is a biological category and that it is a guide to the objective superiority and inferiority of groups of people, i am not calling you a racist to *insult* you, i am calling you a racist because it best describes your beliefs.

Anyhow, I feel like if the weight of history rested on my shoulders, I’d want to keep cataloging this mindless deterioration and giving Republicans regular opportunities to escape culpability for whatever Trump’s final catastrophe happens to be. But they don’t pay me the big bucks.

The Senate is important, but state legislatures are just as big and, as the post notes, these races are a lot more effective use of your dollar.
