Today marks 4 weeks. So I just sent my final “status request” email. I’ve been interviewing w/ them since January 17, so I said plainly in the email that if a decision hasn’t been made, just go ahead and remove my candidacy. Doesn’t matter how good or bad the job market is…don’t tolerate bullshit

A very important story that is not getting enough attention right now. It will also be the subject of my newsletter tomorrow. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Tulsi Gabbard sold out to MAGA for a job in the admin. Now Trump’s freezing her out, mocking her intel, and skipping her briefings. As usual, it only lasts with Trump until you tell the truth.

#ICYMI: In 2023, we wrote about some of the oldest known photographs of enslaved people in US history. Commissioned by a Harvard scientist in 1850 to prove a racist belief, Harvard held onto the photos — until one woman sued in 2019 and claimed some of the enslaved people were her ancestors. (1/2)

Gov. Josh Stein signed six bills that came across his desk, but four others remain unsigned. #ncpol nsjonline.com/article/2025...

This dumb bitch as Blocked 🚫 me and I cant be happier. They love an echo chamber and to ignore actual Black people. Idiot of the freaking day.

I'm a large man, but I have worn natural salt deodorants for almost 15 years now without any crazy smells, but this skeet is hilarious bc I have been in some situations where I was clinging on to dear life bc of the bad smells of others.

Remember the gop & leftists blaming all the domestic and international problems on VP Kamala? Now, the gopis quiet & leftists are trying to convince themselves Kamala “would be as bad” as Don-Don the moron.. 🙄🙄 1 of 2

BOMBSHELL: The story isn’t that Ted Cruz fumbled a talking point. The story is that he revealed a war Congress hasn’t approved, And the U.S. government tried to deny. “We are striking Iran.” That’s an admission. Of war. No vote. No oversight. No shame.

28-year-old Pedro Luis Salazar-Cuervo, who has no known criminal record, was accused by Texas police of being in a Venezuelan gang because they found a photo of him posing with another man with tattoos, his lawyers say. From ProPublica partner @texastribune.org:

Cruz didn’t just forget Iran’s population. He confessed to a war crime on national TV. The U.S. is bombing Iran right now. No authorization. No oversight. This is how empires operate when accountability is dead.

The editorial board of a publication in Sen. Mike Lee's home state of Utah called on him to apologize for his posts about the Minnesota shootings, writing that they “were unacceptable for anyone, let alone from a member of the Senate.”

Beuford Smith, Photographer Who Chronicled Black Life, Dies at 89 He was a prominent member of the Kamoinge Workshop, a collective that nurtured Black photographers at a time when they were marginalized by the mainstream www.nytimes.com/2025/06/16/a...

White America wants to return to a time when Black people were seen but never heard from. They want our music, athletic prowess, fashion, food and culture. But White America absolutely detests Black people. Not an overt hatred, because “racism” is taboo to them—but their votes tell their story. 🇺🇸

Thanks soooo much, fam! Let’s keep building!!! open.substack.com/pub/joyannre...

Liam Neeson's love interest early on in 'Absolution' (2024) is a gorgeous Black woman who is age-appropriate. For once they get it right! #LiamNeeson #Absolution #Movie

Today in Boston. Over a million people turned out. Even the drone couldn't get it all. #NoKingsDay #BostonStrong #ICEProtest

We are living through the apocalypse because white people couldn't handle the fact that we had a Black president almost 10 years ago! He didn't even give Black people reparation or anything useful like that, so I don't know what they're so mad about. Let it go y'all!

Condolences to the families of Rep. Hortman and her husband. Praying for a complete recovery for Sen. John Hoffman and his wife. It's a little too on the nose that the suspect in Rep. Hortman's murder posed as a law enforcement officer in order to carry out this heinous act. Y'all be vigilant.

Chardon, Ohio, population 5242 in 2020 census, had approximately 400 people show up in the rain. #nokings

Target’s foot traffic fell for the fourth month in a row—and it’s ‘going to continue to snowball,’ reputation analytics firm says fortune.com/2025/06/13/t...

I don't like this at fcking all. And it is VERY like white progressives to jump into making decisions for communities they're not even forreal part of yet.

This, for me, is finally the apex.

Prof Stanley slaying it here calling out mainstream media for enabling the Trump regime's fascist dismantling & privatizing everything: science, academia & public health. Dont let the bastards win. Stand up, fight back & join us to kill his #BigBadUglyBill ! #StandUpForScience zurl.co/t7mEE

And white people can stop it any time they feel good and ready.
