What does it say about this country that that the kind of open, rank bigotry Trump administration officials regularly express towards black immigrants apparently has no social cost because of the number of Americans who quietly agree or don't care.

I’m doing a Q&A podcast tomorrow on the government shutdown, Affordable Care Act tax credits, and the terrible Senate deal that fails to address the looming healthcare crisis.
Drop your questions in the comments and I will answer on the pod.

As an example, in Florida's St. Petersburg-Tampa region, 96 percent of restaurants were found to be serving imported shrimp but describing it as locally caught Gulf shrimp.
Meet the scientist exposing shrimp fraud across the South. 'I'm a little bit of an evangelist.'
For years, Louisiana shrimpers have struggled to compete against cheap foreign imports and an ongoing pattern of mislabeling. According to the FDA, 95% of the seafood consumed in the U.S. is imported ...

Folks, you can't report the United States to its manager. There's no superhero coming to save us.
We don't need one giant act of heroism. We need millions of small acts of solidarity. Help one person in your community for nothing in return. Then, do it again. And again.
That's the revolution.

The Project 2025 crew was banking on large numbers of Black people being out in the streets ala Ferguson/George Floyd and that was going to be the pretext to declare martial law. We’re not playing ball and they’re getting impatient so now they’re sending troops to where we are.
Project 2025 did NOT anticipate Black people staying home like we are now.
Black Americans are holding this country together by a thread and
most of white America is so busy flailing and accusing us of being selfish,
y’all don’t even see how our strategy is keeping you safe.

Go see the Af-Am museum, while you can.
And, because God knows what the MAGAs will try to do it, be ABSOLUTELY SURE to see the "Legacy Museum" in Montgomery, AL, while it is there. The most powerful museum display about American history (or almost anything) I have ever seen.
