Ending DEI & “#Woke” policies seems to have given more unqualified incompetent White people a chance to show #WhitePrivilege exists.🤨 #TrumpCrimeSyndicate #SignalGate

If administration doesn’t expiate the contempt, it will get tricky. Boasberg will refer the criminal contempt to DOJ, which will decline. Then he says he’ll point an outside prosecutor, but not clear that’s constitutional or Supreme Court will uphold. But if they do, then Trump still can pardon.

(Reuters) - China and Vietnam signed dozens of cooperation deals on Monday, including on production and supply chains as well as railway cooperation, as Chinese President Xi Jinping visited the Southeast Asian nation, footage of the signed documents seen by Reuters showed. @reuters.com

Imagine being scared of Diversity but not Dictatorship

Correct headline should be; DOGE continues to lie about its progress! DOGE Is Far Short of Its Goal, and Still Overstating Its Progress www.nytimes.com/2025/04/13/u...

Trump caves again on tariffs removing them from smartphones, computer, computers, as well as conductors, solar cells…. This is kindergarten level, negotiating at its finest.

Any Questions?! 👇

We need to amplify the resistance.

The executive targets his opponents w/bogus investigations. His government disappears people w/out due process and vanishes them beyond reach. He usurps legislative power, controls public funds at will, & consolidates power. Loyalty is expected — or else. Authoritarianism isn’t coming. It’s here.

If you can't prove your citizenship well enough to to vote... ...then you can't prove your citizenship well enough to keep from being deported to a South American prison.

ICE: "We must punish immigrants for NOT paying taxes!" IRS: "But they do pay taxes." ICE: "Well, then help us punish them for PAYING taxes!"

Asked long ago & STILL unanswered…

No conflict of interest there, right Elmo?

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

On orders from Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump, the U.S. Naval Academy has removed 381 books related to African Americans and white supremacy. Below, Mike Sorrell takes a look at the whitewashing - and one enlightening book in particular that was pulled from the shelves.

That power & fear is how we got here.🤨 #TrumpTariffs

Justice Ketanji Brown-Jackson just wrote a perfect Epitaph for the Roberts Court.

#DEI & #Woke policies are greater than #Racism & #WhitePrivilege #TrumpTariffs

Racism & #WhitePrivilege are expensive! #TrumpTariffs

They were just minding their own business... disgusting.

Here’s the real reason why DOGE is gutting the IRS. (Hint: it has nothing to do with “efficiency.”)

Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries, in a letter shared with members, has requested a one-on-one debate on the House floor with Speaker Mike Johnson on the budget.

When it comes to the trade war, I don’t think a country that puts war plans on Signal & adds journalists will win.

When people scream about the 25th Amendment l can’t help but think they don’t actually know who the VP is and who the cabinet members are. Have they seen the current Speaker of the House? Maybe folks should just do better in the ballot box and then they wouldn’t have to imagine crazy shit?

So am I the only one that wants to know how the majority of White voters in America could vote for Trump 3 times in a row? Left unanswered, they’ll do it a 4th time…

I've been a Black child, teenager, woman, and now in my Auntie era, in America. We were born "out there". We show up. Every time. We showed up last time at 92%. Y'all get out there and don't come back until you vote for the good of all of us.

Let me get this straight: Soros offered millions for people to protest & every Black person in America wasn’t in the streets?

my offer to america: we bring woke back

This. ⬇️

The majority of White voters in America have NEVER voted the same as the majority of Black voters in America. Not even when Obama ran 2x, Hillary 1x, Biden 1x or Kamala 1x. The majority of White women didn’t vote Blue after SCOTUS overturned Roe v Wade. Don’t hold your breath for ‘26 or ‘28 or …

There are a lot of people that are currently standing in front of a mirror practicing these words with a straight face; “Of course, I didn’t vote for Trump.”

As the economic news keeps coming out over the coming weeks keep one thing in mind: this is the fault of one man and didn’t need to happen.
