Mid Winter 2025 Update- I’m on a quest to get my BMI down for both aesthetic and health reasons. I have to reduce carbs in my diet according to my Dr. and find other ways to get energy for heavy lifting. Been an interesting shift/journey but definitely helping. Progress 💪🏾💪🏾
End of Summer 2025 Update - More successful in my cutting during the summer. Was able to pack on a good amount of strength while even losing size. Happy about this progress. 💪🏾💪🏾
NAACP: “The Supreme Court continues to unleash chaos in our democratic process, and with this latest action, gives Alabama approval to use a congressional map that had previously been found to be intentionally discriminatory. This is a Court that is stripping Black voters of power and voice at a speed that would put Jim Crow jurists to shame”
The greatest threat to American democracy may no longer be found in Congress or the White House.
It may be found across the street.
The Roberts Court has become an unelected super legislature, rewriting decades of settled law, weakening voting rights, stripping away freedoms, and shielding the powerful from accountability.
This is not judicial restraint. This is judicial activism in a black robe.
History will not remember this Court as conservative. It will remember it as the Court that dismantled some of the most important civil rights and democratic safeguards of the last century.
Every federal candidate should run on reforming this Court. The American people deserve judges, not politicians with lifetime appointments.
Scott Pelley issues new statement after being fired by CBS for opposing their pro-MAGA bias:
“New management has instructed me to inject falsehoods and bias into a politically sensitive story. I’ve been told to include assertions that are unverified. To date, in every case, I have managed to ignore these instructions or refuse them.
Recently, politicians have been invited to choose correspondents for interviews on the broadcast. Giving politicians control over 60 Minutes interviews is not how this is done.
Finally, incompetence and unprofessionalism in the new management have wreaked havoc. In a case involving one of my stories, the entire program came within 19 minutes of not getting on the air at all.”
I truly wish @PBS would hire the team that @60Minutes has fired, including those-soon-to-leave Scott Pelley etc. and create their own version of this iconic program. Ratings would be huge.
Good will would be even larger.
