NEW: The Treasury Department’s Community Development Financial Institutions Fund was one of the most effective and bipartisan vehicles for community investment in America. Trump just eliminated its entire staff. Dedrick Asante-Muhammad and Eric Morrissette of @jointcenter.bsky.social:

Ashli Babbitt was a grown ass adult who chose to break into an unauthorized area during an insurrection against the repeated warnings of law enforcement. She ignored those warnings and got killed through no one's fault but her own. She was a traitor. She doesn't deserve full military honors.

📌REMEMBER: All monsters have an expiration date, and the spiraling, 79-yr-old Trump is harrumphing toward his. Almost every week there's another health issue, whether it's his tiny hands, heart or inflated ankles. There will be a steady decline, until one day ... he's gone. Have a great day, folks.

Remember how Claudine Gay was forced out of her President position at Harvard because of plagiarism allegations? Sippy cup, Pete Hegseth plagarized his thesis and we have not heard a peep. White privilege protects white people.

The gutter racism at work in the Claudine Gay situation and the craven, wholly unforgivable complicity of the NYT in the stitch up I think will go down as a shining light example of how the liberal US establishment helped pave the way for Trump’s fascism.

I didn’t give a wit about new pope coverage, but the first American pope being a man with Black ancestry born in Chicago by way of New Orleans by way of Haiti. Names his self after the pope who condemned slavery? In the Trump era? Oh, baebae, I am HERE for it. www.wwltv.com/article/news...

A lot of people noticed the Hands Off protests were mostly white women—and peaceful. Isn’t it interesting how protests are peaceful when there aren’t a bunch of cops in riot gear… or white supremacist militia groups lurking around? Listen to this…

If folks would have voted; 90 million registered Americans didn’t…If folks would have voted for Kamala Harris, we wouldn’t be going through devastation & destruction right now. Since 1/20, nothing has been built or fortified by the Trump administration. Facts upon facts.

That is exactly the time for due process… and these people are stewards of our lives; yes, guardians of our liberty, our freedoms and our security. Another member of the Deplorable & Incompetent regime. Only God can save us. Pray people pray 🙏🏾 and I’m serious.

Crockett: I am tired of the white tears. When you compare me to Marjorie Taylor Greene or me to Lauren Boebert, there is no comparison. So the only people that are crying are the mediocre white boys that have been beaten out by people that historically have had to work so, so much harder
