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.

In its simplest terms, the apparent demise of #USAID is the result of the world's richest man ending a program that helps millions of poor people. You don't need a Ph.D. in moral theology to see why this is an evil. You can just read Jesus's parables on the rich and the poor.

I’m so sorry, Christopher. Please know we will always remember and honor your mom’s uncle. That bigoted behemoth in the White House will never succeed in erasing the legacy of the brave, brilliant Tuskegee Airmen.

Nobody gets rich off of Social Security. Most people like me are barely subsisting on the program,. But it has helped from keeping us homeless and penniless. We paid every single cent into the program! It’s our money.

For Zeteo, I debunked and dismantled Trump and the MAGA right's spurious 'argument' to end birthright citizenship, a constitutionally-protected, Supreme Court-affirmed and very historic right in this country.

Debunking Trump’s Plan To End Birthright Citizenship
The president-elect has announced he wants to override a key constitutional right, that has been upheld by the courts for over a hundred years, with the stroke of his pen.

Fine Gael just don't do campaigns well.

Why? Well it's the ONE time they have to talk to people while giving them an ear of understanding.

But they see it as a time people should laud them for how great they're doing.
Then get in a huff when that doesn't materialise. See #GE2020.

Meiselas: Those Republicans were sure ready to cover up child sex trafficking. They were rushing to cover it up. They were blaming the media for it. And one of the things Trump did during this awful transition was basically expose the entire Republican Party as being a pro-sex trafficking party.

We are witnessing a shift toward people power, where independent media and the voices of everyday Americans—not corporations—matter most. Here’s my pledge: we will never shy away from holding truth to power. And knowing this community, I know you won’t either. www.meidasplus.com/p/as-corpora...

So we have Simon Harris in front of the cameras dismissing a carer's issues.

While Pascal Donohue is off having an undisclosed dinner with Michael O'Leary. But they're not friends. And it wasn't about business or anything.🤷

Who exactly is FG representing exactly? 🙄
So demoralising.

Last year, when I was at MSNBC, I did a 10-minute deep-dive into RFK Jr's anti-vaxxer role in the measles outbreak that killed dozens and dozens of kids in Samoa.

I hope every Senator voting in his confirmation process for HHS knows about this crucial and awful story:

BRENNAN: Do you think experience is necessary?

JIM HIMES: How far we have come that on a major news show the question we're examining is, 'is experience necessary for one of the most powerful positions in the land?' Of course it's necessary!...how is this what we're focusing on?
