Black History Month is a time to recognize the lived, shared experience of all Black folks who have fundamentally shaped, challenged, and ultimately strengthened America. It’s about taking an unvarnished look at the past so that we can create a better future.

If Congress doesn’t act, the last nuclear arms control treaty between the U.S. and Russia will expire. It would pointlessly wipe out decades of diplomacy, and could spark another arms race that makes the world less safe. This piece is worth the read.

The arrests of Don Lemon and Georgia Fort underscore the gravity of this moment. This has never happened before in our history. We shouldn't pretend it's normal.

More reason for us to hold the line and demand a DHS budget that stops funding lawlessness.

America is outraged after ICE killed two white people in Minneapolis.

I understand why folks are feeling afraid and angry right now. But I need you to understand something just as clearly: this is what Black America has been living with for generations.

Minnesota needs impartial investigations, the departure of federal forces, and an end to the campaign of retribution against our state.

“You got signed judicial warrant to gain access to the scene and we’re still denied access by federal agents?”

“Yes, that’s accurate.”

We are so cooked 🇺🇸

Journalists aren’t supposed to report “both sides.”
They are supposed to report the truth.

DHS is not telling the truth. Stop reporting their lies.

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.

Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

🚨BREAKING: Hours after federal immigration officers shot and killed a man in Minneapolis, Pam Bondi seized upon the incident to demand access to voter rolls, directly tying the Trump administration’s quest for voters’ unredacted personal data to its aggressive immigration raids across the state.

Yes. You aren’t in Minneapolis to keep it safe. You are there to create mayhem. Everyone in America sees it and they don’t want us to give you another blank check.

Every day you stay there, you endanger the lives of citizens and law enforcement.

But that’s the point, right?

ICE isn't law enforcement without training; ICE is white nationalism with guns.

Jack Smith: "President Trump was charged because the evidence established that he willfully broke the very laws that he took an oath to uphold. Grand juries in two separate districts reached this conclusion based on his actions, as alleged in the indictments they returned."
