Now that the MSM flood is also starting, there’s no way they’re going to be able to keep this hidden until August. The rumor mill has been going crazy today. Nothing confirmed yet, but it definitely doesn’t sound good.

🗣️🗣️🗣️ NOBODY WANTS THIS!!!! Please believe black folks will be the victims of whatever happens in this situation. We already know it will be terrible.

Maybe it’s the fact that we don’t have universal healthcare or guaranteed maternity and paternity leave or, you know, mortgage sized childcare costs that sort of thing. Honorable mention that people can’t buy houses till they’re 40. But let’s just blame the iPhone.

That Redfin commercial HAD me until my wife pointed out, "So brown people need to do favors for white people in order to be accepted. Got it."

Now wait a min…. A wannabe dictator who (checks notes) allegedly had his election bought for him, who can’t run his own country, done kidnapped a president for being an actual dictator and says “we” will run their country until they have an “election”???!? I want off of this timeline.

Accurate representation of how the majority of us are feeling.

BREAKING: A striking new mural in Roubaix France shows the Statue of Liberty covering her face in shame. It was unveiled just one day before America’s Independence Day. Titled “The Statue of Liberty’s Silent Protest,” the piece was painted in by Dutch artist Judith de Leeuw on a building.

Because she is black. “Children” must be over 16 to checkout materials from the library of congress.

Reporter: The president fired the Librarian of Congress. Why?  Leavitt: There were quite concerning things she had done at the Library of Congress in the pursuit of DEI and putting inappropriate books in the library for children.

THE PENTAGON BUDGET JUST HIT A TRILLION DOLLARS. Not a single pundit from either political party said “how are we going to pay for it?!” Don’t dare tell us we cannot ALL have healthcare, housing, and education.

I’m loving the looks, craftsmanship and overall level of beauty from the #MetGala red carpet tonight. It’s a gentle reminder that Art and Joy still exist. And yet, in these times I can’t help but feel the bit of District 1 Hunger Game vibes 🥺.

Continuing to stay out of Target *and* Bin stores selling marked down products primarily from Target. They’ve already paid for the pallet of marked down goods and Target has the nerve to bill the vendor? Nope.
