Why must all Americans suffer because Dem’s won’t refuse “Emergency Medicaid” (for ER care) for undocumented migrants?

Why when there’s $5 - $6B contingency funds sitting in the USDA; why would SNAP benefits be discontinued and/or frozen?

Not the FAFO you want!
Gang and gun violence is an extreme issue, and not what most hard working, community loving Black people do.

People fight with their family and immediate neighbors (true no matter your ethnicity).
Easy access to guns & unrelenting poverty is the real issue, crying shame and true “crime.”
Black-on-Black crime is a myth (do we say that Italian mafia crimes are “White-on-White crimes)?

Be aware
Stay curious

You can read this article and be liberated to skip to the section on “White Supremacy Mythology” then read forward from there.

This is the “cake” that was baked in and from:
Hopelessness, future-less-ness, generational poverty, disenfranchisement, overwhelming joblessness, infiltrated & easy gun access, mafia fantasies
And, unending madness (not to mention, work wages don’t pay the rent).

I hold Democratic values: care for all humanity, elimination of poverty, homelessness and crime thru preventative measures (like never before), quality whole-body healthcare for all… It’s also true that the Dem’s have sorely disappointed me.

They need to be the party of RESISTance not acquiescence!
This is an undeniable apartheid and genocide against Palestinians.
What the total Hell?!
“A global political economy”😔
(so too was the TransAtlantic slave trade).

So called “Christians” seem not to be aware that Christ was an oppressed Palestinian of his day.
This is an apartheid!
Undeniably!

Nearly one hundred people gathered 700 to 800 miles away from where both Trey and Corey's bodies were found in Mississippi.

Hosted by the UW, Black Power Coalition.

❤️‍🔥For The Most High so loved “The World” that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life (the world: each and every man, woman and child, not any singular group. Not WS Evangelical Christian Nat’nlists).
Vance is not talking to US (to all of America).

Therefore, he does not care that -you- know he’s lying.

He’s speaking to his (in this sense, vulnerable) base… followers of Charlie Kirk who religiously believe against facts & truth.

Which is the obvious and stark opposite of what JD Vance said.
♥️Aug 28, 2025 marked a profoundly historical day.

62 years ago, our beacon of actionable hope (at the March on Washington), MLK spoke his renown Dream.

We -All- are responsible to embody and live the Dream, and keep it growing and alive.

Yesterday was an earnestly precious March on Wall Street.

Consider this…

When you find yourself judging folks from da hood or trailer parks…

in circumstances intensely less fortunate than you

(with no one or without a healthy enough tribe to lift and properly support them).

Omg, this number “9” year (2+0+2+5), has been a year of some profound endings.

Most recently is the passing of Malcolm-Jamal Warner🥺

Here's a video he made I hope will pull a smile across our (very possibly broken) hearts❤️‍🩹

The number 9 signifies endings and new beginnings.

This bill will also increase the national debt by $3T - $4T over the next ten years.
300 hospitals in rural communities will close down.

1.75 million jobs will be lost

1 in 4 nursing homes will close

17 million vulnerable ppl will be dropped from Medicaid

Children will be cut from SNAP

Electricians, Construction, Clean Energy & Green Job Workers are facing stunning cuts as well
A serious concern with Trump’s “big beautiful bill” that will impact generations to come for the worse (if we do nothing about it). Even though the bill passed in the Senate today.

Poem: “For Warmth” by Thich Nhat Hahn (slightly paraphrased).

❤️‍🔥This poem astutely expresses how I often feel, given the political climate and the heavy injustice going on in this world today.
