There is nothing that is good for Black women that isn't also good for everyone else. Talking to Black women voters is talking to all voters. The other voters need to look past their misogynoir.
Former President Barack Obama on Rev. Jesse Jackson:
"He was talking about everyone who was left out, everyone who was forgotten, everyone who was unseen, everyone who was unheard, and in that sense, he was expressing the very essence of what our democracy should be."
Preach!
Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"
that's my president
It’s called “vetting,” asshole. You’re running for a high-profile U.S. Senate seat with zero political experience. Of COURSE they’re gonna dig into your past. That’s standard.
Once again: Everything is a conspiracy when you don’t have a clue how anything works.
Fun fact- the overwhelming majority of people executed by guillotine during the French Revolution and Reign of Terror were French peasants who were killed *en masse* as a result of political power-plays between factions of the Revolutionary Government.
What a life.
Read this. Whenever we make progress there are Bernard LaFayette’s doing the work.
And there are Bernard LaFayette’s today, in Los Angeles, in Chicago, in Minneapolis, & across the country.
Good speech. Most US press got bamboozled by Bill Barr's scheme. Trump's collusion with Russia was always real, continues to be. www.youtube.com/live/ylvTFvJ...
Is it just me, or does Hegseth seem to derive sick, twisted pleasure from blowing people up? How often does he watch these videos? Who does he watch them with?
Kristi Noem's "Open to Work" LinkedIn Profile
i think when we get a final reckoning of how much Noem has personally profited from her office this question might answer itself
That’s not how human rights work. They’re rights that you have because you’re human, not because someone thinks you’re good enough.
I’m so tired of seeing people bash Bluesky for being an echo chamber when X is an actual intentionally constructed echo chamber that is demonstrably radicalizing people across the political spectrum who still use it
Secretary Kristi Noem @Sec_Noem Thank you @POTUS Trump for appointing me as the Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas. @SecRubio and @SecWar are incredible leaders and I look forward to working with them closely to dismantle cartels that have poured drugs into our nation and killed our children and grandchildren. The Western Hemisphere is absolutely critical for U.S. security. In this new role, I will be able to build on the partnerships and national security expertise, I forged over the last 13 months as Secretary of Homeland Security. We have made historic accomplishments at the Department of Homeland Security to make America safe again: we delivered the MOST secure border in American history, 3 million illegal aliens have left the U.S., we have located 145,000 children, FEMA delivered disaster relief at a 100% faster rate, we ushered in the golden age of travel, saved the American taxpayer $13 billion and revitalized the U.S. Coast Guard.
oh my goodness she seems to think Special Envoy for the Shield is a real job
NOEM TAKING QUESTIONS - DOES NOT APPEAR TO KNOW SHE WAS FIRED
the scam these folks are running is that they just *will not shut the fuck up* about 'peak woke' because they *want* it to be a liability so they can say "see, woke bad!"
A federal court is kicking off the process that could force President Donald Trump's administration to start refunding tariff payments.
across the many campaigns and candidates I've met and known, I'm struck by how often before running for anything women candidates often times have organized a huge amount in non-profit and activist spaces
and men candidates very often just run as their first thing.
Democrats in Congress are getting shit done even in the minority. And everyone should be paying more attention to ProPublica.
Also, does anyone else not find it extremely suspicious that she died by "setting herself" on fire?!?? Since when is that a way that women choose to off themselves ever? Super sus.
Republicans literally impeached a president over this basic question
ICE Comes to the American Heartland
After the government declares mission complete in Minneapolis, aggressive ICE occupation continues in small-town Minnesota.
Read: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
Self-described "bounty hunters" driving a fake company van pulled a weapon on observers in downtown Minneapolis yesterday. As usual, the loyal ICE lapdogs of Hennepin County were useless, asking folks to submit a form online, despite many eyewitnesses on-scene they could simply listen to.
He should have asked her if she knew what a half finished drink was
Always follow the money, as Neguse does here.
Good morning! Yes, this is he
This is Aly. She just learned about capitalism. Certainly not a perfect system, but if that is what it takes to put chippies on the table, she understands. 13/10 (IG: alythebichon)
“There were several occasions when Gemini reminded Gavalas that it was a large language model—effectively an appliance—engaging in fictitious role play, according to the transcripts, but the scenario resumed. Gemini also, at times, tried to end the conversation. The chatbot said that for them to truly be together, it needed a robotic body. Throughout September, the chatbot devised missions to do just that, according to the lawsuit. It sent Gavalas to a storage facility near the Miami International Airport to intercept an expensive humanoid robot that it said would be in a truck. Gavalas told the bot that he went to the location, armed with knives, but the truck never showed. Along the way, it suggested that federal agents were monitoring him and that his own father couldn’t be trusted”
Helps you code though, so hard to tell if it’s good or bad.
i hate it here
