SOUTH CAROLINA — @repjamesclyburn.bsky.social: “Why is it when you have a 75% white district that’s not racial, but you have a 45% Black district that is racial? There’s no way the numbers bear this out… I never thought I’d see the day the Supreme Court would be so openly partisan.”

I’m not really one for saying that court decisions should be ignored, but I think that I’ll make an exception here. They tortured logic to arrive at a partisan decision.

🎯🎯

Buckle up, folks. This likely means they expect prices to get much worse. Also: it would add an estimated $2.5 billion to the national debt every month.

Well this aged terribly

Seems to get truer all the time

Killing the Obama-Biden-EU Iran nuke deal for a worse deal that gives away the Strait of Hormuz? Or NOT ending the Putin-Russia war on Ukraine “in one day”? Or betraying NATO? Why do Americans put up with this historic fraud, sex trafficker, mob boss President another day? youtu.be/4XYfa_chGfY?...

The U.S. is effectively checkmated in Iran—and this defeat will carry lasting consequences unlike any America has endured before, Robert Kagan argues.

It’s time. Meet in Selma. Saturday, May 16th. blackpowerwarroom.com/dayofaction/

It's a moral outrage that we're the only industrialized country without paid family and medical leave.

These are sick fuckers should have never been pardon. They wouldn't have committed another crime on children.

The 2nd Amendment was meant for such a time as this.

Wow, he is so damaged!

Everything must change.

lol the same people telling Black folks to stop making it about race keep making it about race. Funny how that works.

They’re against diversity. And they want Black people grouped together in one part of town, until it comes to our voting power. We see you.

We the People!

BACK TO THE FUTURE! 😭

A lot has happened, but not much has changed.

Pretending race and partisanship are separate in modern U.S. politics ignores lived reality. When Black voters overwhelmingly support one party because of history, policy and civil rights concerns, partisan gerrymandering often becomes racial disenfranchisement by another name.

My latest @nytimes.com oped shows that the White House is dramatically understating the cost of the war in Iran. By my calculations—and I show my work—this war will cost the typical American family thousands, and it could cost them tens of thousands. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/05/08/o...

When you roll back voting rights, rewrite slavery in textbooks, purge Black leadership from government jobs, deny Black farmers resources, and criminalize Black political organizing - that’s not “policy disagreement.” That’s suppression. Yes: this is an assault. Systemic. Coordinated. Relentless.

So it's time to throw out the rulebook and just go for it. Now is not the time for norms, rules, and decorum. Now is the time to match energy, and fight to win.

What about this option? Solutions please. www.the-downballot.com/p/how-virgin...

📌The Republican Party has become so brazen in their odious efforts to erase Black people, they no longer feel the need to wear hoods while they pile high barriers to voting booths, and leadership positions in our government, universities, and places of influence. This is a national emergency.

It's up to us White people living here to turn out to the polls and vote every last Republican out of office at every level.

United we stand, divided we fall. Save our democracy. VOTE OUT ALL REPUBLICANS IN 2026!

Georgia - May 19th is general election for 2 Supreme Court seats, which haven’t been contested in decades. You have 2 amazing candidates. Go VOTE! Fight back.

The Supreme Court’s Federalist Society Six are using “colorblind constitutionalism” to redefine protections against racial discrimination as reverse discrimination against Whites — and to embed that theory into constitutional precedent.

Now the court OVERRULES Virginia voters????? What the fuck? Are you seeing it yet?

These courts are handing down rulings against the will of the people WTH????

Trump owns the courts, doj, treasury, fda, congress, senate, military. Who's gonna stop him from doing what he wants? Project 2025 is real. The little they took here and there with the rise of the tea party has now materialized into what we are experiencing today. It will get worse. Revolt NOW!!!

Lawrence Lessig’s “The Extortion Presidency” argues that power is being used less through democratic persuasion and more through intimidation, threats and coercion. The warning is simple: when institutions surrender to fear, constitutional democracy itself begins to weaken.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but what’s going on in the south right now with voting rights and erasure, is a “kitchen table issue” — for Black families. And it should be for everyone.

My fellow Black Americans. VOTE!!! or else this is where these White supremacists in charge are taking us back to.

When Dan Rather tells you CBS is trash...CBS is trash!!!

Sorry for Ms. Alfonsi but she’ll be better off elsewhere. Bari Weiss *is* a meddling right-wing hack, CBS is a sinking ship under her “leadership” & good journalism cannot survive partisan meddling. It *has* to speak truth to power without fear or favor.

The NFL should be defending the south right now and making it clear that a superbowl will never be played in those states

Question to the NFL: Why would the super bowl ever go to a jim crow state that intentionally strips representation from black people?
