From Rep. Jasmine Crockett, "As a former Texas State Rep, let me be clear: LOCKING Rep. Nicole Collier inside the chamber is beyond outrageous.
Forcing elected officials to sign “permission slips” and take police escorts to leave"
Why nobody talking about this?

We can’t lose focus on what matters – right now, Republicans in Texas are trying to gerrymander district lines to unfairly win five seats in next year’s midterm elections. This is a power grab that undermines our democracy.

Exactly this. Even before VP Harris, y'all were warned repeatedly during his first term, especially by Black folks, that things would be catastrophic if he gained power again.
We were told "it can't happen" repeatedly about things we said would happen. 😒

And single doesn't mean alone, you can have life long community in many ways that aren't romantic
What's wrong with growing old alone?
Your life is your own to enjoy and experience, whether you share those experiences or not is a personal choice,
but to be alone is not to be unfulfilled.

I recently spoke with our inaugural MBK Alliance Ambassadors – a group of talented, inspiring young leaders from across the country who are working to give back to their communities. I’m looking forward to following their progress and having them back as alumni to share what they’ve learned.

I would like immediate family members of Congress and the senate banned from buying stocks too. If they just tell their spouses what to invest in instead it won’t make a difference

Black men were called “Cowboy”because Black men were called boy. Whites were called cattlemen or cowhand until the term Cowboy became popular, then all of a sudden they were the Cowboys. There’s always a background to HIStory.
