When people ask why Black people feek things aren't adding up in Nolan Well's death in Mississippi and why there are things that are not adding up... We just think about Mississippi... the history, the #patterns and see images that look the same. Because 2026 should not look like 1955.
This 👇🏾 is why and until people understand this one fundamental truth, the strangle hold Trymp has over them will remain.
Trump cannot afford a Democrats to win because he can't afford oversight. Not for any of the policy issues that we'd like to think. The policies are all the white nationalist musings of Stephen Miller. Trump has been spending uncontrollably and not keeping records. THAT'S the desperation. Again 👇🏾.
We live in a country that let this 👇🏾 happen in 1963, firemen turning hoses on kids peacefully marching for freedom. That wasn't enough so they bombed a church, killed 4 more kids kids. That same day, white kids left a klan rally and shot a boy on a bike for kicks because he was Black. But tolls...
How is this not a threat to harm and/or kill?! Where is the right on political violence and tampering down the rhetoric?! Where is the MSM that was so critical of the public Saturday after they experienced a shooting about this man holding a weapon used in most mass shootings?! The hypocrisy...
They were so happy this one was brown...they don't realize it doesn't help tamper down the idea that it was staged....so dumb. Just so dumb. Because what else unites the right more than good old fashion racism. I believe I said that, too.
So in other words, they took advantage of a situation, let it play out and put people's lives in danger. But MSM spent all Sunday and yesterday chastising whom, again?! Didn't I say the other day they used you to give credibility to this mess as witnesses and chill public discourse?! I did 👇🏾.
🎶"Baby...I'm always on time...." 🎶 Told you...more is coming. Watch.
I guess the question I asked earlier is answered.... And that speaks volumes.
Democrats: Ken Martin, specifically, READ THE FREAKING ROOM!!! I think what your president said he wants to do in 2 hours from when you sent this is pretty bad.
There's still time to vote for WINNERS: Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky, Mike, Ralph, and Johnny, too! Why give people "nightmares" when you can give an "N.E. Heartbreak ❤️?" vote.rockhall.com
So, last Monday, it was $2.73, Wednesday $3.05, Friday $3.25, today...and that's just regular. Super is $4.31 and premium is $4.65. The WH is scrambling trying to find a fix. But didn't their guy say at the SOTU they got "80 million barrels of oil?" A lie will always catch up to you...
In the US we used to have a show called "Showtime at The Apollo," and the legendary dancer Sandman Sims used to dress up and force people off the stage. It was a tradition.

No, we've ALWAYS been this way. I offer The Children's March in Birmingham in 1963. A march that pissed folks off so bad, they bombed a church, killing 4 children and severely injuring one, and provoked more to kill two other children the same day as the church bombing. Same shit, different decade.
This mess in Venezuela is about preventing elections, distracting away from 5.2 mil Epstein files and a Reuters/Ipsos poll has his approval is 27% on cost of living down from 31%. On I said the first poll under 30%, he goes into Venezuela. Read last 2 paragraphs 👇🏾. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...
I saw these from a link. The same folks who want to "free R. Kelly" are the same type of people who knew their nasty, rapey uncle was molesting kids and said nothing OR blamed a 10 yr old for the crimes of an adult because she "looked" older or was decided to be "fast." I hate these people.
This should explain it. Streaming services list the primary artist. This should explain it: Artists Roles on Spotify and what they mean – La Cupula Music Support Center share.google/iAsmsFmZPYj8.... And this 👇🏾! The primary artist is the artist who was signed.
You can't have it both ways. If this is what the map looks like and their voters are a majority of the country, then that means more of their voters are getting public assistance, not the Black and Brown faces they invision. Also, you can’t declare there's many blue states to withhold money from.
Pennsylvania, you cannot re-elect this man. He chose a side and it is not yours. Please don't make the same mistake again.
Slavery via a loophole. He's going to exploit the loophole. Have you seen the Department of Labor's new recruitment posters? They only an for white men to be employed and everyone else (but white women who will just have babies) be slaves or sent elsewhere because the goal is a white nation 👇🏾
