Welcome! This is an unapologetic, agenda-free zone. Just commentaries on current events that’ll move you to think, laugh, rage, and even cry.
Corporations have lost their soul In corporate America, virtue signaling has morphed into a cult-like ritual. But in their zeal to prove loyalty, corporations now take more pride in hiring far-right MAGA celebrities than they ever did in hiring minorities under DEI policies. Only that explains Andreessen Horowitz hiring Daniel Penny. It is one of… Read more.
Lil’ Marco not big enough for the job The Senate confirmed Marco Rubio as secretary of state on Monday by unanimous vote. This makes him the first Latino to serve as America’s top diplomat and the first cabinet secretary to be confirmed for Trump’s second term. Except that Rubio’s role appears more about optics than… 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.
So, it does matter if you’re ‘Black Or White’ On Saturday, during an interview with The Guardian, Janet Jackson caused quite a backlash with the following comments about Kamala Harris: Well you know what they supposedly said? She’s not Black. That’s what I heard. That she’s Indian. [When the reporter told her Harris is ‘both,’… Read more.
Trump’s racist and misogynistic attacks against Kamala are only exacerbating the congenital problem he has with women voters. But even that pales in comparison with the problem he has with Black women, particularly four of them: Vice President Kamala Harris, New York AG Letitia James, Fulton County DA Fani Willis, and U.S. District Judge Tanya… 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.
Kanye is a ‘slave name’? Not since Sean Combs, A.K.A. Puff Daddy, morphed into P Diddy has a name change spawned so much derision. However, this time, the mockery is laced with pity, even sadness. Kanye West’s chief of staff, Milo Yiannopoulos, demanded in a letter that the rapper be referred to as Ye and not… Read more.
Trump is unapologetically racist The more Donald Trump humiliates White men like Ted Cruz and Lindsey Graham, the more loyalty they show him. This political phenomenon is as vexing as it is perplexing. Yet, polls show that the more Trump hurls racist insults, the more appealing Blacks find him. Forget vexing and perplexing. That reeks of Orwellian doublespeak. After all, Trump is arguably… Read more.
Musk’s racism mirrors Trump’s Elon Musk is a racist. At this point, that shouldn’t surprise anyone. I, for one, have written many commentaries denouncing his public tweets. Those tweets often show his true colors. Simply put, Musk is becoming to business what Donald Trump is to politics: a temperamental, incompetent, petty, spiteful, cowardly, racist, narcissistic, homophobic, antisemitic, bullying buffoon. In other words, they’re two… Read more.
Gay resigns On December 6, I published the blog post “Calls for Presidents of Harvard, Penn, and MIT to Resign: Sexism, Racism, and Hypocrisy.” Today, Harvard President Claudine Gay became the second forced to resign, despite the glaring sexism, racism, and hypocrisy from her critics. Harvard President Claudine Gay announced Tuesday she is stepping down just six months into her… Read more.
