Nick Fuentes needs Jesus...the Black one.

Not that White one who is misleading him.

[Turnbull @cturnbull1968]

Nick Fuentes is legitimately scared.

[Carlton Eley @Eleytown]

Within hours of Charlie Kirk's murder, Fox News and MAGA exploited the event. Some said "they are at war with us". Some blamed "leftist violence". Some blamed "the Democrats". HBCUs received threats.

Let's be clear. MAGA is at war with itself. And racism is a disease.

[Max Burns @themaxburns]

Since these people are busy rewriting their history and deleting their posts, here's how the "lower the temperature" right acted when they thought Charlie Kirk's shooter was a transgender liberal.

[Carlton Eley @Eleytown]

Apparently, woke means: too truthful; too transparent; too accurate.

Virtue, integrity, veritas. I want more of that from public museums.

As a taxpayer, I don't need "the okey-doke".

[No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen @NoLieWithBTC]

Trump just announced that he will be going after all Smithsonian museums that teach “how bad Slavery was,” calling it “WOKE.”

[Carlton Eley @Eleytown]

NO CONFIDENCE!

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

Leavitt confirms that monthly jobs reports may be suspended "until they can get the data and methodology in order"

Black Americans share a common lineage and experience: Trans Atlantic slavery to the U.S.; fighting for freedom in the U.S. Civil War; persecution under Jim Crow; and the pursuit of civil rights.

This is why we are one tribe (1 branch in the Diaspora). No one else can claim it.

[Carlton Eley @Eleytown]

Some people grew up with the Brat Pack. Black Americans in the 1980s grew up with Malcolm-Jamal Warner.

[ESSENCE @Essence]

We’re heartbroken to report the passing of Malcolm-Jamal Warner at the age of 54 from an apparent drowning.

A generation grew up with Warner as Theodore “Theo” Huxtable. His portrayal helped redefine Black boyhood on screen, offering humor, vulnerability, and depth across eight seasons.

May he rest in peace.

[Carlton Eley @Eleytown]

No...Trump is simply a condescending racist.

He called his peer "articulate".

[The Associated Press @AP]

U.S. President Donald Trump asked Liberian President Joseph Boakai where he learned to speak "so beautifully" during a White House meeting on Wednesday.

English is the official language of Liberia.

[Carlton Eley @Eleytown]

Thank you Malcolm X and Rev. Jeremiah Wright for stating clearly, "America's chickens are coming home to roost."

[Senator Alex Padilla @SenAlexPadilla]

If this is how this administration responds to a Senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers, to cooks, and to day laborers throughout California and across the country.

We will hold this administration accountable.

[Carlton Eley @Eleytown]

All these actions add up to one conclusion.

The Trump administration's values do not align with civil rights or inclusion.

Who is hurt by naming a ship after Medgar Evers?

This is petty.

[Jerry Mitchell @JMitchellNews]

A week after Pentagon leaders announced their intention to possibly rename the USNS Medgar Evers, christened for the World War II veteran and civil rights leader, his family is urging the Department of Defense and the Navy to reverse their position.

This could be the second time Evers’ name is erased. Although President Donald Trump called Medgar Evers a “great American hero” at the 2017 opening of the Mississippi Civil Rights Museum, his name was removed last March from the Arlington National Cemetery Website, which featured a section honoring Black Americans who fought in the nation’s wars.

“Renaming the USNS Medgar Evers is not only malicious — it is despicable,” said Evers’ daughter, Reena Evers-Everette. “As my mother said, ‘This is an injustice to a man who fought for his country both at home and abroad.’”

@BreakingBrown Thank you.

[Carlton Eley @Eleytown]

Apparently, pockets are deep enough to cover reparations for slavery.

If you can fundraise to support a racist, you clearly have the discretionary income for reparations.

[Mr. Christopher @iamalmostlegend]

Shiloh Hendrix is closing in on $800k and has started receiving her funds.

She also wrote an update thanking her supporters and “like-minded individuals” for proving how “great and powerful” they are.

[Carlton Eley @Eleytown]

Losing $130 billion isn't winning.

That's an opportunity cost.

That's a self-inflicted wound.

[Carlton Eley @Eleytown]

That doesn't mean anything. The U.S. easily burns through $160 billion regularly.

If DOGE really wanted to help the public, target the defense budget.

[CBS News @CBSNews]

DOGE says it has saved $160 billion. Those cuts have cost taxpayers $135 billion, one analysis says. https://t.co/Jxc5GnRsPD

[Carlton Eley @Eleytown]

This is why folks have not accrued wealth.

This damage can only be repaired through reparations.

[Equal Justice Initiative @eji_org]

On this day in 1921, the Chicago Real Estate Board vowed to maintain residential segregation and voted to expel any member who sold property to Black people where white people lived.

[Not Your Average Liberal @NotAvgLiberal]

What the fuck is happening in America?

Math is woke?

Math is what built every home, building, car, airplane, computer, medical devices, every single bit of technology was designed and built with math.

Math literally built everything the world relies on.

How is this our reality?

[Carlton Eley @Eleytown]

For the record, @LouisFarrakhan warned the nation and told us so as well.

Just sayin'...we are not surprised.

[Current Affairs @curaffairs]

Kamala Harris says “I’m not here to say I told you so.”

That’s good, because it was the left that told you this would happen if you abandoned progressive policies and catered to billionaires.

[Carlton Eley @Eleytown]

The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was not created to function as a shield for white supremacist ideology.

Further, whites have not been subject to the violent and untenable forms of discrimination that warranted a civil rights act in the first place.
#FalseEquivalent

[Eric Schmitt @Eric_Schmitt]

On paper, Civil Rights are supposed to mean protection from discrimination based on characteristics like race. In practice, the entire Civil Rights bureaucracy as it currently exists is a vehicle for a new system of discrimination.

[Carlton Eley @Eleytown]

Martin Luther King, Jr. and Thurgood Marshall didn't dismantle a system of oppression simply to let a foreign national reinstitute another system of oppression.

[Carlton Eley @Eleytown]

Clearly, reparations for slavery would not have divided the nation.

Currently, the only thing dividing the nation is MAGA, Trump, and Musk.
