They aren’t and while I get the “let them figure it out” mentality— this shit impacts me and mine too, which is why I’m pissed. We shouldn’t have to pay because white folks en masse can’t deal with their shit. smh

If you can, make noise in Iowa. The Republicans there are aiming to become the first in modern history to remove civil rights protections. They're trying to strip gender identity protections that have been in place for nearly 18 years. apnews.com/article/iowa...

"You're so brave!" No, I'm not. I am SOFT. Always have been! I love fairy tales and flowers, good coffee, tea, and good books. I'm an empath. An optimist. I believe strangers are potential friends. I'm a little prissy. I like things *just so.* I'm Black. What you call "brave," I call surviving.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Plus Joy and Lester Holt? Looks like the slide deck of a Power Point presentation at an employment discrimination webinar. Not a good look @msnbc.com Not a good look at all. A betrayal of your loyal audience & a disaster for your network. www.thedailybeast.com/new-msnbc-bl...

It’s extremely difficult having to educate people, especially refugees and migrants who fled to the U.S. to seek a better life, about the consequences of their votes, especially when they refuse to take accountability or see the impact their votes have on other people and themselves.

THIS! A lot of people are saying that they are surprised by his actions but he said that he would do this. He said it in plain English everywhere he could and people did not believe him. Even when they did believe him they assumed they would be the exception, that his evil would not reach them

😭😭😭😭😭🤭

Did they just put IOWA! Mf IOWA as top two??????? As an IOWAN I would not put Iowa as number two. Maybe number LAST

X/Twitter is up in arms because Cincinnati Children’s Hospital won’t give JD Vance’s 12 year old relative a heart transplant because they aren’t vaccinated for COVID. That child is going to die b/c their parents are idiots.

We will colonize and erase their existence from history while positing ourselves as freedom fighters and humanitarians

Solo leveling Ragnarok !!!!!!

I was just told that I have to remove “climate” from the title of an ongoing grant if I want to keep it. And publications from that grant cannot include “climate” and other forbidden words. I can’t believe I’m writing this from the United States of America. #AcademicSky

When the Nazis were 1st establishing the deportation/extermination camps, they didn’t use the gas chambers just b/c of the efficiency of mass killing but b/c they had noticed the mental toll face-to-face cruelty & killing was having on Nazi soldiers by shooting captives Anonymity enables inhumanity

Mark my words, abortion is gonna be the fracture of the current alliance btwn the Christian right & other religious groups. Jewish lawmakers are the main ones who’ve BEEN trying to save us That is going to lay the foundation of a battle for religious freedom www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...

The way I’m crying reading this article. Omg. He’s such a sweet kid! The Eagles better bring it home for him 🥹 this is too touching!

just saying: it's possible that "I'm gonna dramatically constrict my state capacity while plotting dramatic imperial expansion, and expanding my set of internal enemies while alienating most of my foreign allies" is the beginning of a world-historical masterstroke. but also possible that it isn't

Two planes collide at Seattle Airport as Japan Airlines' wing slices through Delta aircraft's tail

Federal health workers are expressing fear and alarm after a website called “DEI Watch List” published the photos, names and public information of a number of workers across health agencies, describing them as “targets.”

it's important to remember that black history isn't just about movements and towering figures. some of you are the first in your family to graduate, own a business, own a home, educate others, seek therapy, master a recipe, share your art, rest, come out a closet, etc. that is black history too.

Rubio's state dept appointee is a white supremacist and a misogynist. I remember not too long ago when a Republican who said this would be disqualified from high profile federal jobs forever.

The kufi on the Grammys is sending me

NEW: On USAID, Trump asked VP Vance to oversee next steps for reform at the humanitarian aid agency. Trump advisers are examining overlap with other agencies. 1 option is to possibly fold it into the State Dept. Some, including Elon Musk, have argued for shutting USAID down altogether, per sources

This is the one 😂😂😂

It’s a mindfuck watching white ppl scramble, trying to figure out how to ‘stop’ the orange dictator at large, yelling at dems to “do something”—when, if you & your comrades bigotry hadn’t taken precedence over your own livelihood & well-being, we wouldn’t be in this predicament in the first place.

Am I the only one who gets offended when told that I look like someone else? I mean what do you mean there is someone else in this world running around with my face 😐

Less than 48 hours apart

Yesss! What happened to all branches of the government? Do we even have a government anymore if the balances are no longer checking????

Yet another anti trans executive order, this one seeking to forcibly detransition and disallow transition of anyone under 19, and seek the prosecution of anyone who supports them.

WTF is the Democratic Party doing right now to help the people, the masses, their base? What are they doing to protect our country? Most importantly, what are they doing to defend and protect our Constitution and constitutional rights?
