CNN’s Harry Enten: “2026 may be the most promising midterm year for Georgia Dems this century. Ossoff is a favorite to win and raised the most money of any Senate nominee.

BREAKING: The Louisiana legislature passed a new congressional map eliminating one of the state's majority-Black districts. This is a blatant effort to consolidate political power in the hands of the state's white majority and deny Black people an equal opportunity to participate in our democracy.

1. Trump has spent the last 18 months saying major cities run by Democrats were crime-infested hellholes. Actually, violent crime was at historic lows in many cities when he took office and new data shows it has dropped agin in 2026. Cities are safer than they've been in a long time.

A survivor of the Kent State Massacre rings the bell on campus today, May 4, at exactly 12:20, the moment his classmates fell, 56 years ago.

I hope Black women are having a restful Sunday today.

Yall. I glanced at the OKC/Philly game and said "that's quite a few empty seats." No. EVERYONES just wearing blue and it looked so cohesive my eyes didn't read the individual people!

ICE still wants to use a warehouse a few minutes from my house as a concentration camp. STOP ICE detention.

Lets learn about war crimes.

Jeff Bezos has $222 billion. If he paid my wealth tax this year, we could fund insulin in America for everyone who needs it plus free school lunch for every kid in Texas—and have plenty of money left over. And Bezos would still have $215 billion dollars to spare.

This is a VERY specific post for VERY specific people. I just refilled my prescription. Yall? The good Adderall is back. I dont know what big pharma has been doing the last few months. But there was CLEARLY a difference. I repeat. The good adderall is back

Its wild having to get up from your own content creation sometimes and take a break. Y'all after slavery and during World War 1, not only did states implement vagrancy laws to force Black people to work- some cities specified that Black women had to be working for a white family.

as someone who monitors right wing media, its under discussed right now but i can tell you conservatives are absolutely terrified of the way talarico is using religious messaging against them
