1971 - A Pentagon report released revealed that Black soldiers made up 11 % of U.S. soldiers serving in Southeast Asia. It also disclosed that 12.5% of all American military personnel killed in Vietnam since 1961 were Black, highlighting the disproportionate toll of the war on Black military.

For those who may not have noticed yet, ALL women fall under the DEI umbrella, not just women of color. It's time to wake up! The felon wants to turn this country in one run and controlled by straight white men. If you are a woman, you will not be protected regardless of your color.

Under the House GOP’s budget plan, the lowest-income taxpayers would see a LOSS of $1,125. The richest 0.1 percent of taxpayers, on the other hand, would see a more than $180,000 GAIN. This is trickle down economics on steroids.

We reported on this a few days ago, but I want to point out this headline because this is where we are at. A bill in Arkansas would ban gender affirming HAIRCUTS for transgender youth. HAIRCUTS. This is a straight up North Korea state sanctioned hairstyle proposed law for youth.

This breaks my heart. My salary at St. Jude was paid through our comprehensive cancer center grant. My wife's oncologist is at a comprehensive cancer center. Millions of children and adults with cancer get treatment in these 57 centers around the country. These are essential locations for research.🧪

The NCI grant supporting the Columbia comprehensive cancer center was terminated. Tell me how terminating support for cancer research helps the economy. taggs.hhs.gov/Content/Data...

So who’s paying for Republicans’ massive billionaire and corporate tax cut? Families. Sick kids. Disabled kids. Rural hospitals. Seniors. Students. They’re all footing the bill as Medicaid will be ripped away if we don’t act. Thank you @chrismurphyct.bsky.social #SaveMedicaid

Massive protests across Hungary against corruption and impunity call for the Trump and Kremlin linked Viktor Orbán to resign. This comes after Orbán vowed to eliminate a global “shadow army” serving the European Union and a “liberal American empire”. #HungaryProtests

This. Shout this from the rooftops. Add in the propaganda that tricks voters into thinking this is the American way and you’ve got the MAGA playbook.

🧵I know what the Trump administration is doing to the country because they’ve already done it to rural America. They stripped public schools of funding. They closed our hospitals. They sold family farms for parts. They let our infrastructure rot. And then they gerrymandered us to keep us quiet.

Musk is actively working to discredit our movement. We raised legitimate concerns about the threat of SSA phone line cancellations—yet now they’re dismissing it as misinformation. This follows a clear pattern of deception.

Throwback Thursday… Remember that time Biden cornered the entire Republican Party into denying they’d cut Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid for a $1T tax break for billionaires? That was only a year ago. Now, the biggest earned benefits cut in history is in their budget.

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.
