In NC, @davidjoy.bsky.social powerfully explains why it’s wrong to remove a “compromise plaque” without public input, and why revering the confederacy is offensive.

After calling 77yo Black Dem Al Green “boy”, @RepHarshbarger (who lied about protecting Medicaid) refuses to apologize — and taunting those who think she should.

Reminder: not having enough humility and grace to apologize is a weakness, not a strength. www.thedailybeast.com/al-green-res...

Trump just ended the federal work study program. All those poor students relying on that income just got told not to report to work because the program has been terminated.

Looking at all the posts wondering where POTUS Barack Obama is, and MVP Harris. Wypipo made it clear who they wanted to elect this time around - and did. Hollering for help from Black folks ain't gonna work. Go out and get your skinfolks to reject and undo what they have wrought

The orange man’s purge of the Inspectors General isn’t just illegal—it’s a direct attack on our democracy and puts the safety of every American at risk. This reckless move must be reversed, and my colleagues and I demand that he comply with the law, no excuses.
Donald Trump's brazen attempt to purge Inspectors General violates the law, attacks our democracy, and undermines the safety of the American people.

My fellow Ranking Members and I are demanding he reverse course and comply with the law.

Does the right have a fetish for Black men getting strangled to death? Because I’m missing their loud cry of condemnation for Rep-elect Brandon Gill’s remarks.

“I don’t know about you all, but I think we need a lot more Daniel Pennys in this country, because we have far too many Jordan Neelys.”
