They didn’t just burn Black towns.
They overthrew Black power.

Wilmington, 1898: The only successful U.S. coup. Black officials killed. Prosperity erased.

Y’all may want to check to see if you are following Jake Tapper @jaketapper.bsky.social here on Bluesky and if you are then unfollow him. He has 291,000 too many followers. Then pass it on.

The Trump administration cut a clause from federal contracting rules that had been on the books since the 1960s: Companies are no longer explicitly prohibited from having segregated facilities

Here is a list of town halls taking place next week that you should show up at. I am sorry, I mean Chuck Schumer’s book parties. If there are any missing, please add in the replies. The only thing he should be doing today is cleaning out his office.

Arlington Cemetery removed them from their maps of gravesites. This is to disrespectful of our heroes that fought for our freedom.
The Defense Dept has deleted references to Black, Hispanic & female service members as well as topics such as the Civil War from its website in order to remove all references to diversity, equity, & inclusion.

Just heard that Trump is putting an end to atmospheric monitoring site NY67 that is run out of my lab. This is one of the oldest NADP sites in the US, continually measuring acid rain and other pollutants since 1977. Closing it down is tragic.

Glad this is still getting attention because it was a genuinely insane move in a wide variety of ways, including that had these guys gotten their way it may have actually breached levees and led to floods across California farmland.

There’s been zero explanation for this given but it seems exceedingly likely it’s pure retaliation for the Maine governor challenging Trump. Really sick.

Social Security now requires Maine parents to visit an agency office to register newborns
The change — immediately criticized by pediatric health advocates — eliminates a program that allowed parents to fill out a form at the hospital to secure a Social Security number for their children.

Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago.

But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today.

He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.
