You mean Marjorie Taylor Greene's boyfriend?

So these are the guys who responded to those "IT jobs with Doge" ads on X. The first time I saw one, I thought, "Why is Musk recruiting hackers?"

The biggest impact is eliminating the prohibitation of "discrimination based on race, creed, color or national origin" in federal employment. Before it was signed it, black civil service employees faced rejection for promotions & higher paying jobs despite passing & scoring higher on service exams.

TBH, I'm hoping Trump appoints some US attorneys with more spine than these Biden appointees because I'm tired of politicians selling out urban communities to buy themselves a future. It shouldn't take an R.Kelly/Diddy amount of evidence for the DOJ to pursue political corruption cases.

Maybe, but more than half of the population would argue that being afraid to cross or even cross paths with a "clown" is reasonable. #coulrophobia

You're playing with fire. This man is known to harbor a grudge and invest time and energy on his payback. Rumor is that Sean Combs offered to take him shopping (one of the alleged tactics he used to lure in his male victims) over a decade ago, so he collected enough info on him to make a docuseries.

You mean the slave owner who raped & impregnated her great-great-great-great-grandmother?

This is a false equivalency. Go gaslight somebody else.

After serving on TWO charter boards, I would argue that Dem support for charter schools is driven by two groups: 1) liberal elites who want urban lifestyles for themselves & non-urban public educations for their kids; and 2) hedge fund execs hoping to capitalize on for-profit charter mgmt oppys.

Got it in one. This is pretty much what a lot of administrations do (not just in Cleveland) because they know that the legislative body (i.e., councils & trustees) don't have the will or discipline to penalize them.

Well, I recall the law dept having to do an upward adjustment a year ago because legal settlements come out their budget. I suspect the same is true for unanticipated vacation payouts.

Imagine attending an alumni summit and there's a "Lessons Learned from Katrina" session that he managed to turn into a brag fest about all of the "great things" he did to rebuild the city, then spending the next rest of the summit being repeatedly asked how much of it was a lie. 🤣

When I met her at the 2006 BIA holiday party, it was clear that she'd been propped up by Whites in Broadmoor to put a blackface on their efforts to gentrify one of the few remaining affordable uptown neighborhoods—efforts that now included leveraging the struggles of their displaced Black neighbors.

This is what happens when you release a bunch of debtors & thieves and set them up in prison colonies so you can create new markets and customers.

Did you even read the article? If anything, it mirrors and confirms what Black Democrat strategists have been saying for almost two weeks.

Sorry, but I'm tired of white elites deciding that they have to sit at the head of the table in every room where they drive agendas that serve them, but don't serve the rest of us.
