Hello my 10k new followers. While I am happy to see some of Trump’s orders yesterday, he also allowed a literal swamp creature into his administration.
We must make as much noise as we can to put a stop to this. Kailee Buller is a seed oil lobbyist trying to get into the United States Department of AGRICULTURE.
Not under our watch. @POTUS we demand swift action to stop the swamp from taking over this department. Do not let this be your legacy.
WHITE LIBERTY GOOD BLACK LIBERTY BAD?
Here's a quote from American-born African writer James Baldwin: "When any White man in the world says, 'give me liberty or give me death', the entire White world applauds. When a Black man says exactly the same thing, he is judged a criminal and treated like one."
Baldwin was speaking on The Dick Cavett show in 1969. And it highlights the hypocrisy underlying Western society that many of us know and feel.
Africans growing up in the United States and other imperialist countries are educated on the brave struggles of Western 'freedom fighters', from George Washington to Joan of Arc. However, when it comes to the question of the emancipation of African people who have been subjected to hundreds of years of oppression, all of a sudden, fighting for freedom is unacceptable.
Baldwin gives two examples: The treatment of Nat Turner, who led the famous US slave rebellion in the 19th century, and the backlash against human rights activist Malcolm X around a hundred years later.
Baldwin also talks about Israel in this video but later made clear he's anti-Zionist, saying: "I don't believe they have the right, after 3,000 years, to reclaim the land with Western bombs and guns on the biblical injunction."
He was in military gear. This is weird.

You will not watch a more pertinent video regarding the situation Laura Loomer and her fellow MAGA bigots find themselves in with Trump bending the knee to Elon Musk's H-1B visa demands. The truth comes at you fast, motherfuckers. 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣👇
These foreigners came to America and fell Victim to the idea of the model minority myth.
No Vicram, White America does not care that you and Vivek have spent your lives attempting to assimilate with White America.
Actually the model minority myth was just a ploy by whites to insult the work ethic of black Americans. As you can see they (white Americans) do not truly believe you are net positive to their future and prosperity.
This is the text of the Post columnists' statement, for those hitting the paywall:
The Washington Post’s decision not to make an endorsement in the presidential campaign is a terrible mistake. It represents an abandonment of the fundamental editorial convictions of the newspaper that we love. This is a moment for the institution to be making clear its commitment to democratic values, the rule of law and international alliances, and the threat that Donald Trump poses to them — the precise points The Post made in endorsing Trump’s opponents in 2016 and 2020. There is no contradiction between The Post’s important role as an independent newspaper and its practice of making political endorsements, both as a matter of guidance to readers and as a statement of core beliefs. That has never been more true than in the current campaign. An independent newspaper might someday choose to back away from making presidential endorsements. But this isn’t the right moment, when one candidate is advocating positions that directly threaten freedom of the press and the values of the Constitution.

We’ve attended many Trump rallies. Tonight’s was different.
As independent media, we’ve attended many Trump/MAGA rallies over the years. Typically, these events are predictable—energized, but generally orderly. We approach attendees, offer interviews, and often have pleasant, even insightful, conversations. Sometimes people decline, and we move on. We rarely feel unsafe or threatened.
But tonight’s rally at Macomb Community College was different.
We arrived later than usual, knowing Trump would be arriving late himself. The crowd outside was rowdier than usual, and something felt off. People were visibly drunk and high—generally not atmosphere we’ve come to expect. We were even offered drugs, something we had never experienced before.
Things took a darker turn when one of our team members was sexually harassed by a man who grabbed her and tried to forcibly kiss her. This crossed a line we couldn’t ignore. The energy had shifted. Feeling unsafe, we made the decision to leave early, along with hundreds of others who, like us, saw Trump start his speech and then headed for the exits.
This experience was a stark contrast to the rallies we’ve covered in the past, where we’ve always felt we could do our job without fear. Tonight was different, and if this is a sign of what’s to come, it’s deeply concerning. We’ll continue to cover these events because it’s our job, but what happened tonight in Macomb County was not acceptable. When you cultivate a culture that marginalizes women, subjugates them and when your rhetoric shows a clear disrespect we can’t be too surprised that supporters would act this way.
We still processing the events of the night and we are home safe now. Thank you for listening
