Crockett: I am tired of the white tears. When you compare me to Marjorie Taylor Greene or me to Lauren Boebert, there is no comparison. So the only people that are crying are the mediocre white boys that have been beaten out by people that historically have had to work so, so much harder

This work killed Fannie Lou Hamer. Martin Luther King had so many health ailments. Jesse Jackson has so many now too. So many of our ancestors died debilitated by addiction. Consumed by anger and grief at what they endured. We only see the heroics of the struggle. This work is deadly.

This is grossly irresponsible reporting by the AP. What’s being offered is not a buyout. The deal is if you agree to resign in September you can continue working remotely until then. There is no buyout or severance.

We are never getting anywhere with yall. Yall have no ideas, no solutions, just want to out “smart” everybody else. It is very fucking easy to not shop at Target. They are telling you they dont want your business. So dont give it to them. Period. That’s the point.

All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.

75%.

One more time for yall: 75%.
Fully 75% of immigrant farm workers didn’t show up to work the other day in Bakersfield, California because of fears of ICE raids. America’s agricultural communities will be the hardest hit from Trump’s harsh immigration policies. Food prices are going to skyrocket.

UM ALSO.

Your health insurance company gets theirs guidelines on what to cover from
the CDC and the NIH.

They are salivating over this. Because if there’s no guidance, they may say “well we won’t cover that b/c it’s not necessary.”

It happens WAY more often than people think
Why should the public care about the freeze on the NIH? Aside from the need for scientific pursuits to make our society better…
-For every dollar we invest in NIH research, there is a $2.5 return.
-Research dollars help fund universities that employ non-academics. (1/)

Maybe in 2025, y’all will stop saying, ‘We’re not our ancestors,’ because y’all are indeed not. Your ancestors would’ve been mobilizing—planning a revolution right now—instead of chasing a meme coin Ponzi scheme for an *illusion* of a piece of the pie! Y’all cant even leave X alone.

I just don’t understand how or why some parents are shocked their adult children don’t treat them like friends after spending eighteen years assuring them that you have no interest in being their friend.

The city of New Orleans uses the Mississippi River as drinking water. Our current governor begged the state to remove funding from the city of New Orleans to fix the pumps and the decaying sewage and water system UNTIL the DA agrees to prosecute women for abortions. www.essence.com/news/louisia...
