It appears the VA site for grant applications to help homeless veterans is down. Unsure if this is a glitch, or the end of assistance for homeless vets.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

I know pointing out hypocrisy doesn’t matter anymore, but if there’s one person I wouldn’t want to be the judge of who goes into locker rooms, it would be the man who openly boasted about walking into dressing rooms of underage girls

they are mostly targeting black employees so this is quite literally just a repeat of woodrow wilson’s segregationist purge of the federal government
Federal health workers are expressing fear and alarm after a website called “DEI Watch List” published the photos, names and public information of a number of workers across health agencies, describing them as “targets.”
Federal health workers terrified after ‘DEI’ website publishes list of ‘targets’
The site calls out workers who have been involved with DEI initiatives. A majority are Black.

I’m old enough to remember when y’all lost your minds over a blow job, but a traitor and his foreign born jumping-minion take a blow torch to our government and your response is “LFG”.

After Colombia had the guts to turn away US military planes transporting migrants, Trump retaliates with 25% tariffs on all imports, threatening to escalate to 50% in a week. This is nothing but a petty power play from a man who thrives on bullying.

The largest tuberculosis outbreak in American history is happening right now, in Kansas.
Just one of those things you won't hear a peep about now that Orange Hitler shut down the health department and he told the CDC that they're no longer allowed to inform the public about outbreaks.

The LA fires hit the poor the hardest, and Trump’s agenda makes it even worse. His executive order guarantees that federal aid will continue to favor the rich and white, leaving the most vulnerable to suffer without the help they desperately need.

Disasters Like the LA Fires Always Hit the Poor the Hardest. Trump Wants to Make It Worse.
The LA fires hit rich, white neighborhoods and Black ones. Trump’s executive order helps ensure inequities of aid distribution will keep favoring one group.

I just voted against Kristi Noem’s confirmation.
Our immigration system is in desperate need of reform — but it won’t be fixed by organized acts of cruelty.
We need a DHS Secretary who puts the rule of law and constitution first — not the caprice of the President.
