I’ll say this and then I’m gonna step back b/c 2026 IS THE ONLY NATIONAL ELECTION THAT’S IMPORTANT NOW.
No Dem presidential candidate wins w/o high Black turnout & vote.
So stop making it like Black voters are expendable or that you can serve up any candidate chosen by Pelosi, Clooney or MSM & win.

Why do Trumpers want to abolish the Department of Education? Because it’s in charge of prohibiting discrimination on the basis of race and sex in schools that get federal funding, a policy Congress set in 1975 through the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).
