This is why I find the discourse about “woke 1” so infuriating. Black people suffer material consequences from racism that ruin our careers and lives. But because White people turned DEI into a status tournament, we gotta roll back the civil rights act. It’s maddening.

Governor Newsom says what we all know to be true, even MAGA if they’re honest with themselves, the point is, what are we going to do about it? Accountability for Trump & Republicans is at hand with the approaching Midterm elections, it’s time to right the ship and hold the wrongdoers accountable!

Trump couldn’t put his name on the Kennedy Center, so his board voted to shut it down.
That’s why you register to
vote.
Presidents appoint judges. Senators confirm them. States decide whether your vote is protected or blocked.
They want you exhausted.
Don’t give them that win.

NEW: I have filed notice to the court in my $1.776B slush fund lawsuit that the DOJ has appealed Judge Williams' nullification of the underlying "settlement agreement" while arguing the same day that the fund is "dead." I'll post a link to the full filing once it's available.

The amount of Amazon workers relying on SNAP and Medicaid has nearly tripled since 2020. — while Amazon’s annual profits soared by over 550%.
It’s the same story everywhere: corporate profits are at record highs, while workers’ share of the economy is at a record low.
We must unrig the system.

A 40-year-old unvaccinated woman in Pennsylvania has just died from measles.
There is no controversy. She needlessly died from a disease that is preventable with a vaccine. But HHS Secretary RFK Jr. thinks measles isn’t that bad.
Nobody should die of measles in the United States.
