Once, Ali married into my family. Though we never met, I enjoyed the sparkle he inspired in the eyes of my kin.

To anyone wondering why no-one is familiar with what the Biden administration has done, here's what happened today. President Biden was giving a speech on Bidenomics and Katy Tur did not air it. CNN had the speech airing but cut to their cable table discussion.

In 1942, US Navy Messman Charles Jackson French successfully swam through the night for 6-8 hours pulling a raft of 15 wounded soldiers w a rope round his waist in shark infested waters. He was the first black swimmer to receive the Navy medal of heroism in 1943.

—On September 5, 1942, United States Navy Messman Charles Jackson French swam through the night for 6 - 8 hours pulling a raft of 15 wounded sailors with a rope around his stomach through shark infested waters. The U.S. Navy Ship the U.S.S. Gregory was hit by Japanese naval fire in the South Pacific. Many were wounded and killed. French successfully brought these men to safety on the shores of The Solomon Islands. French was the first black swimmer to earn the Navy Medal for his heroism in 1943. We remember Charles Jackson French and commemorate his heroism and incredible swimming. Thank you for your service and your valor, Mr. French.

Remember: The real freeloaders in this country are the rich, not the poor.

The richest 1% evade $163 billion in taxes every year.

The United States literally has a yacht tax deduction.

Ons Jabeur says the top 500 players in the world should be able to make a living playing tennis:

“If you know me & you know my personality, I really like to help players. I truly love this sport. I believe the sport deserves much better. Like Novak said, we're the 3rd most watched sport in the world & barely a few players can make a living out of this. It doesn't add up.. when you do the math, it's unbelievable. I see so many players that struggle like I struggled back in the days. For me, such a beautiful sport watched by a lot of people, there should be a lot more money in it. Money to enjoy the sport & not think about ‘How am I going to pay my coach? I need a physio with me..’ We pay mostly everything. That's okay & I believe it's fine. I just feel like maybe the top 500 players should be well paid so they don't have to worry about money or worry about anything else besides enjoying this sport.”

What does it tell you about our priorities when Congress passes a bigger military budget every year but lets the expanded Child Tax Credit expire after it lifted millions of children out of poverty?

Remember that all SAG/AFTRA actors are still on strike. We will not mention any TV shows or Movies (old, current or upcoming) as a support to our Union’s ongoing work. I ask that you all understand that other actors nor myself are ignoring you but we will not comment if it includes the above. My best, Bill

I was a believer of the 9/11 inside job conspiracy theory for 15 years. It was my gateway to the rabbit hole. Thankfully, today, I am now an ex-truther.

This picture clearly shows the core of WTC 1&2. This picture is one that no 9/11 conspiracist will show you because it destroys their argument.

You can see quite clearly that there would have been no controlled demolitions needed for it to collapse.

Do all the mental gymnastics you want, but the truth is simple. A plane flew into each building. The impact, explosion, and fire weakened the core. The weight of the floors above the impact zone buckled the steel. And it all came down.

No mystery. No inside job. Stop believing fantasies and wake up!

Walmart's CEO made $25.3 million last year.

That was 933x the median compensation of a Walmart employee.

The company also announced a $20 billion stock buyback program.

Yet Walmart just said it is cutting hourly pay for new hires.

I had a nice talk with The Black Catholic Messenger all about TELL IT LIKE IT IS. Back in the day I recorded a song that went 🎶 "Must be Hercules..." and well, to make it through all that I have... I believe it. #tellitlikeitis
