Trump was ALWAYS going to fuck over Ukraine and Palestine wholly and fully. PERIOD. ALWAYS. If you thought anything other, you’re naive.

I’m an African American woman. I’m 61 years old. I was born without Civil Rights in 1963. Legislation was passed in 1964 granting me them. These rights were REVOKED in 2025. They didn’t even last a lifetime.

Tell people you like to wear a mask.

WaPo’s job is to create the darkness democracy dies in.

The coup learning curve appears to be 8 years.🙄

"To be eligible for assistance under LIHEAP, households must have total income less than 150 percent of the federal poverty guidelines, or lower than 60 percent of the state median income level. For a household of four, that translates to $48,225. The amount awarded depends on income, number of household members, and whether the household includes people over age 60 or under 18.”

"The NAACP issued the Black Consumer Advisory to inform and caution Black consumers about the ongoing and intentional rollback of nationwide diversity, equity, and inclusion commitments. We encourage you to spend your money where you're respected, support Black-owned businesses, and demand businesses prioritize people over profit.”

White Americans fell for Putin’s racism psyop. He used your racism against you to destroy your nation. Nice work, “superior” feeling folks.

"Faculty at the Naval Academy are no longer permitted to use materials in the classroom that teach about systemic racism and sexism, according to an internal email obtained by The Baltimore Banner.”

“...all of the agency's core functions are being impacted by the firings, including maintaining the security of America's nuclear weapons stockpile, responding to nuclear disasters around the world, and tracking nuclear devices being held by the United States' enemies.”

Clearly, this is a global threat.

“'Because children who receive a transplant will be immunosuppressed for the rest of their life, vaccines play a critical role in preventing or reducing the risk of life-threatening infections, especially in the first year,' it said. 'These decisions involve discussion between our providers and the patient’s family.’”

You’re lucky when you have sane parents, non-stupid parents.

Where’s George Clooney’s big ass mouth now? How about all the other motherfuckers who put us here? Oh yeah, they’re still rich, white men so they’re good.

Fight for what COULD BE, not what was.

I find it astonishing that white Americans are willing to believe that people in government are making oopsies or unaware of what they’re doing. If YOU get it, why the fuck would you think they don’t? I’m deadly serious.

"The White House said today that the court orders that are blocking his illegal federal funding freeze are a ‘weaponization' of the justice system that’s provoking a “constitutional crisis.” That's the pretext for saying later that the only way to right such a wrong and resolve such a crisis is to ignore the courts altogether. No law will constrain him. No Congress will remove him. If he does not die in office, he will not leave.”

ALL STOPGAPS ARE GONE

Apparently, eggs are being sold individually at bodegas in NYC, like the loose cigarettes Eric Garner was buying when cops killed him. THIS IS WHERE WE ARE.

Responsible governance is NOT GIVING IN to nazis and attempting to fuck up any tiny progress in every way. If you’re NOT doing that, I don’t have any use for you and I KNOW who you are.

“'President Trump and his crony Elon Musk illegally executed a revocation of $80 million in congressionally-appropriated FEMA funding from New York City’s bank accounts,” Lander said in a statement. “This highway robbery of our funds directly out of our bank account is a betrayal of everyone who calls New York City home.’”

WHERE IS THIS STOLEN MONEY? WHO HAS IT?
