Pax Americana is dead. The world will never again trust any deal made with the US. Any expectation of American integrity, benevolence or decency has been permanently erased from existence by a small, pathetic man and his cowardly sycophants.

This Black History Month, let's call a thing a thing.
When Republicans attack "DEI," "wokeness," "CRT," or "BLM" — they mean Black.
It's anti-Blackness on steroids.

You are MEMBERS OF CONGRESS.
If they threaten you with arrest for trying to access a site you are lawfully entitled to access, YOU MAKE THEM FUCKING ARREST YOU.
YOU MAKE THEM SLAP THE CUFFS ON A CONGRESSMAN LIVE ON TV, YOU MAKE THEM FUCKING DO IT.

Members of Congress say they were just denied entry to USAID headquarters on orders of Elon Musk and DOGE and were told to contact the State Department for any further information.

I went to my Congressman's local office today. First off, they were surprised that I was there. They said they had been getting phone calls, but I was the first walk-in. That said, the phones were not ringing off the hook. If the DC phone lines are busy, try calling the local office.
