Somehow, it all feels connected: the denigration of professionals doing their job, the fetishization of young women, the older men’s blindness to their own abuse of power.

MacKenzie Scott Gives $700 Million to Historically Black Colleges
The donations to over a dozen schools come as the Trump administration is directing more funds to the historically Black institutions, too.

Err..just one more thing.

Here is the Big Lie on cheaper grocery prices.
Only cheaper because a smaller meal and no name brands.
We should call on Walmart to make a clarifying statement and not let this ride as a Republican talking point !!!!
No other grocery chains have made this claim.
Stop the Lie !!!!!
