I want to give you guys some facts about General Chappie James. He wasn’t a “DEI” hire—he was a complete badass that had to overcome MORE than any white pilot. Did 178 combat missions—that’s like 7 bomber tours on a B-17 in WWII.
His medal count? Impeccable. 3 Distinguished Flying Crosses, 14 Air Medals, Two Legions of Merit, and a Defense Distinguished Service Medal. One of the original Tuskegee Airmen, the first four-star African American General.
Hegseth couldn’t sniff the level of soldiering and warrior that was in Chappie’s DNA. God bless him. And Hegseth took down his picture from a hallway like a racist little child, which is what he is.
On this day in 1963, civil rights leader and organizer #MedgarEvers was assassinated by a white supremacist in the driveway of his home. We remember his legacy and honor his family, including his wife, #MyrlieEversWilliams, who was a dear friend of our founder, #CorettaScottKing.

@christinmystic@Phil_Lewis_ That’s what small start ups should do if the business makes sense. I hate that it’s always viewed as selling out. There’s no details here but they clearly retained some equity in the deal
@unscannyx@roemelloreyes Nah wiz front office had his big brother on 2 way in OKC. They had the inside track plus clear plans to develop him. In ATL he would have been thrown out there with higher expectations. You seen his summer league he wasn’t ready for that

Shock G on 2Pac’s “So Many Tears” is a masterclass.
His sample flip on Stevie Wonder’s “That Girl” is genius - inverting the mood of the original record, matching Pac’s headspace perfectly.
Shock G wasn’t just producing - he was painting soul! 🔥
