The question isn't if I'm afraid for my safety because I am outspoken.

The question is whether I'm afraid of what could happen if people don't speak up.

The reality of how much rascism still exists
has never been clearer. And so many of them profess christianity.

Let’s stop pretending. The issue before the Supreme Court right now is easy to understand: There are still many people on the far right who don’t see Black Americans as equals...they see them through the same filthy slur they whisper when the cameras are off. That's right...that word.

I am sounding the alarm that the GOP is engaged in an all out attack voting rights and free and fair elections. Voter suppression, gerrymandering, and troops in blue cities are just some of the ways they are using to try to rig the rules to keep power in 2026 and beyond.

Pay attention and act!

Getting the story right on the VA is crucial.

We let the Washington Post know the veteran perspective was clear: the real threat to the VA isn't from veterans, but from politicians pushing privatization.

The focus must be on strengthening the system.

Veterans groups rip Post for investigation into VA disability program

Veterans groups accused The Washington Post of overstating problems with the Department of Veterans Affairs disability compensation system and scapegoating former service members.

Brian "kill all the homeless people" Kilmeade lectured air traffic controllers about working without pay. Kilmeade is paid millions. He could probably go without pay for a while and not feel it. Most Americans can't do that.

Fox News paid $787.5 million in a defamation settlement to Dominion Voting Systems for knowingly promoting false stories about the 2020 election. Someone might tell Jesse Watters that Fox News is still facing a $2 billion lawsuit from Smartmatic for the same reason.

Fascism is on the march. It’s coming to a neighborhood near you, maybe yours.

Republicans will do any goddam thing they can to make sure you can’t vote.

Everyone better start calling up their Congress members because Stephen Miller is trying to pass the Save Act again without Congress so loads of women won’t be allowed to vote because of them being married! We fought this earlier in the year and Congress didn’t pass it! 🤬

Here's what I'd like to do! I'd like to make sure your orange butt goes to jail for at least 10 years for participating in and organizing an insurrection.
