Muting a Black woman to claim the vote was unanimous is so incredibly on the nose
The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

The White House says the Kennedy Center board vote was “unanimous”…
BULLSHIT.
@repbeatty.bsky.social, a Congressional member of the board, was on the call. They muted her and didn't let her voice opposition.
This is beyond absurd, totally illegal, and a disgrace to the memory and legacy of JFK.

Explain to me how ICE agents decimating restaurants in the local Pittsburgh area is “good for this country.”
What happened at Emiliano’s Mexican Restaurant & Bar this week was downright disgusting.
16 hard working individuals violently ripped from the restaurant during business hours.
