Trump claims there is an ongoing “genocide” of white farmers in South Africa. That is a lie. There is crime in SA., but most of those murdered are black. The South African president has tried to make the facts clear to Trump - to no avail

On June 6th 1944 our grandfathers fought fascists, to liberate the oppressed. In 1932 their fathers before them marched on Washington DC as the Bonus Army, to demand relief from economic hardship. June 6th 2025 on the National Mall in Wash.DC, join the Sons of Liberty. We are the Bonus Army.

Admin Doug, You’ll never make the Pope Hiring Committee that way. Pope Leo doesn’t hate anyone. It’s a job requirement. He loves everybody. Now Cardinal Bob is quite another story. See how that name-changing works. Plausible deniability.

Violates the 8th Amendment. Sending any person to an area where we advise against travel is “cruel and unusual”. Never been done before. Could also violate prohibition against Bills of Attainder.

When Trump and Musk tout how much money they're saving by gutting cancer research and Social Security services, know this: Their IRS cuts will cost $500 billion in tax revenue just this year. That's more than half the Defense budget. None of their destruction is actually about saving money.
Trump and Musk want to shrink the government by fiat without regard to who and what they hurt.

Shoutout to Adam Schiff for saying what Republicans won’t—Trump’s tax cuts for billionaires are moving forward, and working people are about to lose their healthcare. Next: make every House Republican vote on it. Let them show us who they really work for.

Oh, I think I’m educated enough. I know the Irish came in poverty, as indentured servants. They fled starvation and often owed their passage fees to their transporters. The fact that they could consider themselves a step up from Blacks fed into the racism of cities like Philadelphia and Boston.

Altadena, population nearly 42,000, is the town where the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. visited. Where sci-fi author Octavia E. Butler is buried alongside abolitionists. Where a park is named after Charles White, a local artist whose work portrayed Black history. www.latimes.com/california/s...

Against all odds, Black residents built something remarkable in Altadena. Then the fire came
The Altadena fire wiped out much of a historic black enclave in this picturesque town in the San Gabriel Valley.
