Curtis Yarvin, who has been profiled in media like Politico and The Wall Street Journal, has publicly stated in the past that he thinks black people are naturally fit to be slaves.

the sister of the race science "academic" quoted by the New York Times in their shameless hit piece on Zohran Mamdani seems like a lovely person and is insisting her brother was never awarded his PhD and is just pretending to be a professional academic

How come after all her lamenting that she hadn't read the bill before she voted for it, Marjorie Taylor Greene is going to vote for it again?
And how come no one is asking her about that?

Funny how the tax cuts for billionaires are permanent, but the ones for waiters and nurses come with an expiration date.
Tips untaxed until 2028.
Overtime break ends 2028.
But the rich? They got theirs forever.
This bill isn’t reform. It’s a heist.

We have traditions like “souls to the polls” where entire Black Churches go vote together.
We have community events that involve food and music.
Our elders start teaching us at a very early age about how important the vote is for Black People.
Y’all take it for granted because you can🤷🏾♀️

I just don't understand this. George W Bush, Barack Obama, and Bono just recorded videos commending the staff of USAID for their work and lamenting the agency's destruction...
And those videos were not released to the public.

Trump calls for deporting US citizens: "We also have a lot of bad people that have been here for a long time ... many of them were born in our country. I think we ought to get them the hell out of here too, if you want to know the truth. So maybe that'll be the next job."

Q: "A 75 year old Cuban national died in ICE custody. He had lived in the U.S. for 60 years...Is there anything you can tell us about that?"

I worked at Planned Parenthood.
They diagnose cancers while still treatable. They help women decide what birth control works for them. They help those working through mental health challenges.
Defunding them just harms people who already struggle to find places to get care.
