Let me get right to the point. The Senate should not confirm Todd Blanche as attorney general.

New: Cops keep getting arrested for using Flock to stalk people. Seemingly every week there's a new case, the details usually similar. Cops use unfettered access to Flock to surveil an ex. They most often search plates hundreds of times over months

Trump, with 34 felony convictions and dozens of assault accusations, calls Graham Platner "worse than any human being that's ever run for office" without a trace of self-awareness.

92-year-old Milagros Ortiz was a beloved mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother whose life was tragically cut short after a crash involving an Orlando police vehicle. Her family is heartbroken, and their pain is compounded by the decision not to file charges. We stand with the Ortiz family and will continue fighting for truth, accountability, and justice in Milagros’ memory.

Reporter: Are you concerned, Mr. President, about the latest inflation number which came out this morning?

Trump: No, I love it. I love the inflation.

My father’s warning is painfully relevant as violence escalates and hopes for peace grow more fragile. The U.N.’s call to halt hostilities underscores how quickly war widens and how deeply it threatens human life and any path to lasting peace.

Justice, restraint, and the courage to choose another way are what this moment requires.

In 1945, a sixteen-year-old girl in New Orleans sat in a classroom and listened to teachers describe Black people as inferior, ignorant, and dangerous. She knew it was a lie. And she decided, then and there, that she would spend her life proving it.
That girl was Gwendolyn Midlo Hall.
By the time she was seventeen, she had already helped organize the New Orleans Youth Council — a bold, interracial group fighting for African American voter registration in the heart of the segregated South. She marched, she organized, she was arrested. She did not stop.
But her most extraordinary act of defiance came decades later — not in the streets, but in a courthouse.
While conducting research in Louisiana in the 1980s, Hall opened an old ledger written by 18th-century notaries. Inside were names. Hundreds of them. Names of enslaved Africans — their origins, their skills, their families, their rebellions. Details that English colonists almost never recorded. Details the world had assumed were lost forever.
Hall was astounded.
She spent years traveling between archives in Louisiana, France, and Spain, piecing together fragments of stolen lives. With the help of five dedicated assistants, she built something the world had never seen: the Louisiana Slave Database — a searchable record of over 107,000 enslaved individuals, documenting their names, ethnicities, occupations, family relationships, and places of origin.
What she found also shattered a long-held assumption in academic circles. Scholars had believed colonial Louisiana was shaped primarily by Haiti and the French Caribbean. Hall's database revealed the truth: most enslaved Africans brought to Louisiana came from Senegal and Gambia — a finding that forever changed how historians understand the roots of Creole culture.
But perhaps the most profound impact of her work is the most personal.
Families — for generations separated from their history by the deliberate erasure of slavery — could now search a database and find an ancestor. A name. A face in the darkness of history, finally brought to light.
Gwendolyn Midlo Hall passed away on August 29, 2022, at the age of 93. She is remembered at Whitney Plantation in Louisiana, where two long walls bear the names of every person she found — 107,000 lives, no longer forgotten.
She gave them back their names. And in doing so, she gave us all a more honest history.

If ICE or federal officers violate your right to record, there should be consequences.

That's why I introduced the Right to Record Act to create a legal pathway to sue and hold them accountable — because no one is above the law.

There are credible allegations made against Donald Trump that he mutilated a child’s nipples while raping her.
Allegations so serious, his inner circle had to meet in the Situation Room to discuss them.

I mean, how the fuck isn’t this the biggest scandal in the world right now?

@BreeNewsome @keplerkstar060 The United States of hypocrisy. The USA has never been the “land of the free” that it proclaims itself to be.
Slavery and indigenous genocide was there at its inception.. and 400 years of Jim Crow, continuing systemic racism continues to rot the system
