Sitting here and watching the same shallow thinking people continue to fall for lazy self-defeating bullshit that got us here really is maddening. if you spend all your time on here bashing Dems then you want Republicans to stay in power. It’s that simple And I don’t want to volunteer to be gaslit.

Same. Other than some sports and TV takes I am back chilling because even in the wake of all that is going on the Progressive wing of Mayo Nation stays on some bullshit so I shall leave them to it. They’re not serious about getting these Republicans out of the paint.

The same NYT that published any and everything about Hillary Clinton and applied little to none of that same scrutiny to Trump? How ever could we come to that conclusion Emily?

Man SYBAU.
As a former member of NYT’s finance team & the co-author of this story exposing the relationship between Epstein & Bill Gates as well as one on Epstein & JPMorgan, I am really frustrated to see people claiming that NYT sat on publishable info about Trump and Epstein 🧵 www.nytimes.com/2019/10/12/b...

There's a certain verbiage around Epstein's crimes that I haven't seen anywhere except when people sanctimoniously admonish it. Good job winning a moral argument with your imagination, ig.

Exactly! They think they’re going to do that platform- realignment thing, and leave us holding the flaming bag of Conservative fkery & treason, as they’ve done in the past. Some of the forces instrumental in the Right’s Tea Party movement are now manipulating, meddling & interfering in Dem politics.

If the Democratic Party abandons Black women, is over. Done. Finished. We will never win another election. Move accordingly.
Yep. Black women are the most loyal, dedicated, motivated voting bloc of the Democratic Party….full stop.

We came 🤏 close to winning this last election & white/white adjacent voters were shooketh.

Now, they’re prioritizing orphaned Republicans & leftist grifters over Black women. We see them.

Remember when they said enthusiastically to vote like a Black woman until a Black woman became first inline to the presidency

You see it in the apathy of white voters who have failed to turn out in a meaningful way since the civil rights act & defend that choice with selfish reasons

You see it in every "not all white women!" in Black women's mentions while they break holiday bread with their white Maga relatives

You see it on here daily with the "we need EVERYONE to be in the fight, why are Black people staying home" & the "class not race" constant bullshit from the left

You see it in the propping up of Jasmine Crockett followed by utter abandonment the second she says something the left doesn't care for

It’s not just the Party…a lot of democratic voters do too.

Why isn’t the Trump administration being widely described as a “white supremacist administration” because that is overtly what it is?

A short history lesson on how we got here and how our Democratic electeds have fought for us every step of the way. (Too bad voters didn't give them the majorities needed to stop this.) ⬇️
It's frustrating for sure, but how do you think Ds caved in the budget that passed in July? Because it was the budget, both chambers needed a simple majority. Hence the reconciliation process with a lot of wins for Ds to clean the bill of anything requiring 60 votes.

Not even Fetterman voted for it

Black thinkers & activists have been saying the same thing for more than 150 yrs: the rights, laws, & programs passed by Congress are meaningless if white Americans remain unwilling to enforce them.
After the police chief in Columbia, SC murdered a Black resident in cold blood, an anonymous Black woman wrote to the govt in May 1866: "Our friends in Congress are wasting time & breath, & all the bills they may pass, will do us no good, unless men are sent here that will see these laws enforced."

Black folks, especially in the Deep South, are some of the most religious people in this country. These TP folks are playing religion, not living it. There is a profound difference.

Notice how that Blexit shit targeted at HBCUs fizzled out quickly? We don't play that shit about our safe spaces.
