Welcome! This is an unapologetic, agenda-free zone. Just commentaries on current events that’ll move you to think, laugh, rage, and even cry.
Trump is nominating twice as many billionaires to his Cabinet as the number of millionaires his predecessors did. But Americans beware: Trump’s billionaire boys’ club isn’t about public service — it’s about targeting the biggest mark in history, the United States. Because only two types of people matter to this gilded-tower grifter: those filthy rich… Read more.
DEI is poisoning American schools and businesses Donald Trump is a certifiable racist and antisemite. Nobody should be surprised that he has nominated a nearly all-White cabinet. For context, his cabinet will have just five people of color compared to Biden’s thirteen. Of course, Trump vowed to kill all DEI programs if elected. Not only… Read more.
President-elect Trump didn’t just normalize White grievance; he weaponized it. Now, Walmart and other corporate giants are obediently rolling back their DEI policies, bowing to the dear leader-elect even before he gives his first, most essential loyalty test. Sixty percent of Americans support DEI, but these companies are caving to conservative tantrums led by MAGA… Read more.
The great ‘realignment’: Latinos are the new Blacks. Trump won more Black votes than any Republican in recent history. But he has yet to nominate a single Black to his cabinet. This isn’t a coincidence; it’s a nod to the MAGA presumption that only affirmative action would explain a Black being among his first nominees.… Read more.
Adams indictment like Trump impeachment? Yesterday, the US attorney indicted Mayor Eric Adams on five federal charges of bribery, fraud, and soliciting illegal foreign campaign donations. They stem from bribes he allegedly took to do the bidding of the Turkish government. The US attorney warned that these charges are just the tip of the iceberg.… Read more.
Trump ridiculed Scott Trump continually ridiculed Tim Scott, saying, “You are campaigning harder for me than yourself.” This was Trump’s sadomasochistic way of acknowledging how hard Scott was auditioning for VP. That’s why MSNBC host Joy Reid and others waxed clairvoyant and indignant last night, explaining why Trump didn’t pick him. Of course, any Black… Read more.
Emancipation Proclamation and Juneteenth President Abraham Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation took effect on January 1, 1863. It freed all enslaved people in the Southern States. But Union soldiers took two-and-a-half years to inform Galveston, Texas, of the Proclamation. Enslaved Blacks there finally heard the news of their freedom on June 19, 1865. Juneteenth commemorates this unconscionable delay. Yet, that… Read more.
The GOP: from political party to con syndicate The Republican Party has transformed into a national con syndicate. This is more evident than ever with convicted felon Donald Trump as its leader. But conning is what Republicans do. That’s clear enough from the lies they tell just to “own the libs.” Indeed, all they contribute… Read more.
It’s really that simple: like Putin’s oligarchs, Trump’s wannabe oligarchs will side with money over democracy any day. Meanwhile, Trump repeatedly warned there would be “death and destruction … and riots in the streets like we’ve never seen” if Democratic prosecutors indict him. Well, they indicted him four times, and a “Democratic jury” has even… Read more.
Minority business programs must benefit Whites Yesterday, a federal judge ordered the Minority Business Development Agency (MBDA) to serve (majority) White businesses too. Republican Sen. Mitch McConnell had such orders in mind when he conspired with former President Donald Trump to pack the federal judiciary. They recruited young White men. The primary qualification? Their blind faith in MAGA propaganda and conspiracies. Indeed,… Read more.
