Jeffries, still going strong 8 hours in: "Extraordinary to me, Mr.
Speaker, that you got folks in this town talking about draining the swamp. Guess what. You are the swamp ... we've never seen anything like this -- the type of corruption that has been unleashed on the American people."

These young adults are amazing, and these s**theads are the ones running the country. It's infuriating.

The city of Tulsa, home to one of the most horrifying racial-terror massacres in U.S. history and the people who tried to cover it up, has announced a $105 million reparations package.
Tulsa announces reparations for the 1921 ‘Black Wall Street’ massacre
It took decades of research by historians and journalists — and reports by state and federal commissions — to uncover the violence that claimed more than 300 Black lives.

DEMOCRATS WOULD BE WISE TO PAY ATTENTION TO THIS…

There’s a new alignment happening and it’s not about left or center. Rank-and-file Dems want two things:

📌Leaders who stand with workers
📌And who stand up to Trump

If you’re not doing either, expect to get primaried.

Watch…

A page turner for sure. I loved the relationships between Ruby and Aunt Marie and Ruby and Nene. Inez was irredeemable. Eleanor and her mother's relationship was lovely tho. I loved the inclusion of real historical figures...

For not one of his signature initiatives during his first 100 days in office does Trump have the authority under the Constitution and laws of the United States that he claims. Not for the crippling global tariffs he ordered unilaterally; not for his unlawful deportations of hundreds of immigrants
