The IOC has announced a trans and intersex athlete ban requiring an invasive SRY genetic test for female athletes. In the 20+ years trans women were eligible, only one ever competed and none ever medaled. This is solving for a problem that doesn't exist. www.nbcnews.com/sports/olymp...

My ability to ID white people who actually know what they’re talking about when it comes to white racism, remains unmatched. There are vanishingly few of them.

god forbid they have hobbies smh

This is just relentless. Months after DOJ struck out for the third time prosecuting Letitia James, a Trump official just filed two criminal referrals against the NY AG alleging she falsified occupancy info on insurance apps for Virginia homes. Taxpayer-funded revenge games, non-stop.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

A new shelter for unhoused people 55 and older officially opened its doors. It’s called Senior Bridges. What makes this place unique is that each of the 40 studio units are powered by solar and lithium batteries — effectively eliminating utility costs.

Three countries stood alone as 123 nations voted to formally label the transatlantic slave trade the “gravest crime against humanity” the U.S., Israel, and Argentina all voted no on the Ghana-led UN reparations resolution.

Hey, did you know that the fertilizer required for modern farming takes huge amounts of energy to manufacture (cracking those famously stable nitrogen pair bonds into an organically available configuration ain’t free)? Fuel crisis = food crisis. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaa...

The California sheriff who last month seized over 650,000 ballots has ties to a movement of radical right-wing local enforcement officials that has embraced election denialism and conspiracism. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/cali...

Apple Cider Donuts with Gangsta Chef a.k.a. Thug Peach🤣 He includes tour dates in this video! 😆

Bari Weiss’ right-wing outlet The Free Press is pushing disinformation about Chicago’s violence intervention programs while ignoring widespread police misconduct that has cost taxpayers hundreds of millions. In this episode of Let’s Address This, I break it down and provide the receipts. Watch now.

“That just doesn’t make sense to me — when the richest people have the smallest effective tax rate, that does not seem like a very fair system.” #LiftTheCap

Are those of us who went to Howard with yt and Asian students getting in for the lower cost of tuition good?

NEW: Last October, Border Patrol agents gassed Chicagoans after agents caused a major car crash on the southeast side. I analyzed body cam videos that show agents Benito Nunez, Oscar Guillen, and Carlos Chavira ignored orders to end the pursuit—moments before they blew a tire and crashed.

Stunning photo: James Bradford in 1961, arrested for reading in the Jackson, Mississippi public library.

I saw this quote and thought about my wife and how we got together. My man was spitting facts about a lot of us!

Another banger for sure

Why did I read “pants” instead of “price”? My bad.

Farage, Reform, the BBC and almost all UK newspapers ignore this, but always focus their anti minority hate agenda on other smaller non-white perpetrator cases. This one is massive, but is ignored by the UK propaganda machine.

FACT OF THE DAY. 26 March 1953. In a huge medical breakthrough, US medical researcher Dr Jonas Salk announced that he had created the first polio vaccine. Polio cases fell from 58,000 per year in 1952 to 6,000 by 1958. Salk’s vaccine was replaced by a new one developed by Albert Sabin in 1962.

Here's what you need to know about Trump trying to end birthright citizenship before the Supreme Court on April 1. In short, if birthright citizenship falls, the entire American experiment fails. SCOTUS must uphold the constitution & protect birthright citizenship. youtube.com/shorts/JK5XL...

NEW: When Jerry Sheridan was second-in-command at the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office, a federal judge found he had undermined reforms meant to root out racial profiling. Now, as head of the department, Sheridan is pushing to end the court’s oversight.

MySpace and Black Planet really had social media figured out. I can’t even begin to imagine the number of tech careers that jumped off simply because people learned html for their BP pages.

I live in NC. The most delicious part of ALL of this, is that Phil Berger redrew his own gerrymandered congressional map, and then lost it. 💀 #karma

Researchers at the University of Waterloo have developed a tiny, rice sized magnetic robot that can treat kidney stones without surgery. Guided by external magnets, the soft micro robot can travel through the urinary tract and reach the stone directly.

I saw that man kicking that woman in the hallway. Fuck Diddy. And fuck Usher, too since he wanna join the chorus.

Jessica: I love that you read a newspaper. Watters: I read more than you. Financial Times, Wall Street Journal, New York Times, New York Post. Jessica: And you still say this crap on TV after you've read all that?

Rod Serling was warning way back when about the rise of white "christian" nationalism. Maybe kids should've been forced to watched repeats of this show on rainy weekends inside like my generation did back before (waves arms) all of this. "Twilight Zone."

REP. GOLDMAN: “‘Democrats offered to open up everything but ICE — Trump said no deals. That is why we are sitting here today with none of your agencies being funded.” He plays video of Republican Sen. Kennedy admitting it👇🏽
