Did You Know news:

Kevin Roberts the architect of the Heritage Foundation's #Project2025 did his Master Thesis & Ph.D dissertation on slavery & how Blk folks overcame it. He weaponized this knowledge & used it to come up with harmful policies so freedom tactics couldn't be used this time.

Think that alone is bad? Now add on the regime's goal of ending Child Care Access Means Parents in School (CCAMPIS).

BREAKING: We just subpoenaed the Epstein files.

As a survivor of sexual assault, I know the pain & trauma survivors carry. This subpoena is a massive victory for every survivor who has ever been silenced, dismissed, or harmed.

Bondi must release the files immediately. We demand accountability.

Absolutely go forward with this, even though the prosecution of any refusal to comply would fall to the discretion of the US Attorney for DC. Which effectively means Bondi and Trump.

Which is, in this case, WHY you do it.
