"Racist people are firing and laying off Black women at three times the rate of other women."
😬Yikes! It sounds bad when you say it like that!
"Black women are losing jobs at 3 times the rate."
Much better! Makes it sound like the Black women just need to be more careful or better at their jobs!

Incidentally, the WSJ story IDing Jared has Trump whisperer Josh Dawsey bylined and NYT match has Tyler Pager.
So this story is coming from the White House, possibly to get ahead of it.

By moving to the “center,” Democrats have failed to fight the forces that led us to Trump: widening inequality and the unchecked power of billionaires.
There's no "center" anymore between a takeover of the government by oligarchs and true freedom.
Dems need to learn this.

Between seizing ballots in Georgia, trying to leverage Minnesota to turn over its sensitive voter data, and political prosecutions, the DOJ is laying the groundwork to subvert the 2026 elections. I created Democracy Docket for times like this. Help it grow by supporting it now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Here’s the truth:
✅Trump lost the 2020 election.
✅Renée Good was shot in the face while turning her car to leave.
✅Alex Pretti was beaten by six ICE officers, then fatally shot.
✅The GOP is preparing to steal the midterms.
The administration is denying it all. But we can't.

Lies, violence and the American state
Trump abhors democracy because it allows ordinary Americans to reject his lies. Even worse for Trump, it allows us to reject him.

I saw that Philly is suing and fine.
But I think Philly should republish the full exhibit as a hard copy special issue zine/pamphlet and put them in every school in the city and every public library.
Philly should create a special curriculum unit and pick a week to do a citywide teach in.

The National Park Service has started dismantling exhibits about slavery at the President’s House in Philly...which is a memorial to those enslaved by George Washington while he lived here.

The slavery exhibits at the President’s House have been removed following Trump administration push

They darkened her skin. They made her heavier. They made her look older. They made it look like she was crying when she was courageous.
I just wrote days ago that Trump hates no demographic in America more than Black women. How much more evidence does one need?
This is as openly racist as it gets.

“I think there's a lot of Democrats playing games right now with national security and with law enforcement. And I think it's dangerous. Ice is doing what ice is designed to do by its very name.”
