I find it absolutely hilarious that gay conservatives use the SCOTUS decision to not reconsider Obergefell v. Hodges as proof that progressive gays are fear-mongers while prominent conservatives openly admit that they are committed to ending same sex marriage in the United States.

Black veterans fought for freedom abroad and returned home to second class citizenship. Traveling while Black during Jim Crow was about survival, mobility, and dignity. The Green Book Project documents that story:

I can't tell you how many interviews I've done where I've been asked: If Trump's policies are so problematic, why are U.S. stocks rising so rapidly.
A bit of international context illustrates the real issue here.
U.S. stocks have dramatically underperformed other advanced economies.

I was reading about Fannie Lou Hamer's Freedom Farm Cooperative (FFC) in the book "Freedom Farmers." It talked about starvation as a political weapon and how the FFC was a project to build self sufficiency, feed people, and gain political power. Made me think a lot about the SNAP cuts rn.

The history of this country is riddled with losses. Welcome to the history of Black Descendants of Enslaved Americans. The entire idea that we are on an arc that bends toward justice is a myth. We simply try to move forward and create the path for the future. But know this—- We must never give up.

Fox gives Trump a platform during their NFL broadcast to peddle his absurd lies about "prices are coming way down", "we inherited a mess," and "our country has over $17 trillion being invested in it." Absolutely shameful for all involved.

Groceries saw their biggest jump in nearly three years last month, a worrisome sign for inflation-weary shoppers. Tariffs are contributing to higher prices for imported staples like bananas and coffee.

Black American soldiers literally dug these WWII graves. Traumatic. To acknowledge that fact at a cemetery they helped construct is something the Heritage Foundation cannot accept. As Veterans Day approaches, never forget that this country both compels and disrespects Black military service. Always.
1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

Grocery price inflation is tearing him up and he has no plan to fix it. You can’t lie your way around what people see every week at the store. You can’t bully prices. The administration owns the continued inflation in grocery prices. They fully own it now, whether they like it or not.

While Trump’s lawyers file an emergency petition with the Supreme Court tonight to do everything they possibly can to avoid paying SNAP benefits to the needy so they can starve, Trump flies to his country club for another weekend of parties and golf.
