Hey Cousins!
Check out these BlackOwned resorts!
I love that we have the option of staying in beautiful spaces owned by beautiful people. Keep the wealth circulating among us! I’ll try to come back later with the links to each one.

Don Lemon: “If Barack Obama had sued his own government, settled with himself in secret, created a billion dollar fund with no congressional oversight to pay his political allies. What if he did that? They would’ve had him in chains before sundown. The National Guard would have been called in. Impeachment articles would have been filed. Can you imagine Fox News?”
🚨BREAKING: Local police and ICE agents were filmed surrounding a Black man in Columbus, Ohio… despite openly admitting he had NO warrants.
In the video, you can hear an officer ask:
“So you have no warrants?”
The man responds that they already KNOW he doesn’t… because he handed over all of his information.
Then he asks:
“Why did you pull me over?”
An officer says, “You can’t have weed out in the car like that.”
The man responds, “Weed’s not illegal. Are you all going to write me a ticket for weed?!?”
And another officer ACTUALLY replies… “It’s frowned upon.”
It’s frowned upon?
Now yes… Ohio law does regulate how marijuana is transported in vehicles, similar to alcohol. If it’s open or improperly stored, officers can issue a citation.
A CITATION.
Not a situation where a man is pulled out of his car, and have multiple agencies run his information.
Because if the issue was truly “improper storage,” then write the ticket and let him go.
That’s how laws are supposed to work in a constitutional republic.
Instead, what we’re watching is officers fishing for reasons to escalate AFTER already deciding this man was “suspicious.”
The Fourth Amendment exists specifically to stop the government from detaining people without legitimate legal justification.
And then you have the issue of ICE agents being involved…
ICE is a federal immigration agency. They are not traffic police. They are not supposed to be part of routine traffic stops, especially when they involve U.S. citizens.
That separation exists on purpose.
Because when federal agencies start getting involved in traffic stops, it expands government power, fast.
And once that happens, the line between enforcement and overreach gets blurred… and that’s when your constitutional rights start to disappear.
White cops, killed Isaiah Kirby. 21 years old. Zoology black student. Three weeks from graduation. No body cam. No dash cam. Just a mother with 17 bullet holes to count and a demand for truth. #
This is ABUSE. The President called ABC’s Rachel Scott a “horror show,” and “a disgrace to our country,” for asking ONE fair question about gas prices and the Iran war. Abby Phillip. April Ryan. Yamiche Alcindor & Rachel Scott. All experience ABUSE from this man!
"Veteran's Against Fascism," including disabled veterans, were arrested inside of the Capitol building today as they staged a protest against Trump's war in Iran.
This is Trump's America.
The Capitol Police are arresting US military veterans for protesting war and genocide. That’s how sick our society is. Protesting war and genocide lands you in jail while supporting war and funding genocide gets you a job in Congress and the White House.
Trump said he would unleash ICE at our airports. Today, a mother was ripped away from her child at SFO.
This is not a “security plan.” It is a public show of force meant to terrorize Black and Brown families, chill our freedom of movement, and turn every airport into a checkpoint. A daughter who is reportedly a US citizen watched her mother thrown to the ground because she could not prove her citizenship on command. That is not law and order. That is lawlessness.
We cannot normalize this. We cannot scroll past this. Every lawyer, every traveler, every bystander at our airports has a role to play: record, intervene safely, demand badge numbers and connect impacted families with legal support immediately.
This is your reminder: constitutional rights do not stop at TSA.
The day the Affordable Care Act passed was one of my proudest moments as president, because it meant that millions of Americans would have access to health care, some for the first time.
The ACA also prevented insurance companies from denying people with pre-existing conditions coverage, allowed young people under the age of 26 to remain on their parents’ plan, expanded Medicaid, and so much more.
But the ACA was always meant to be a first step. We still have to do more to expand access and make health care more affordable for everyone.
