@PBuff90 @deaflibertarian Why would anyone have to show YOU evidence or follow YOUR rules about how to prove things? This is not a court of law and you are not a judge in this platform. Also, I used to be a criminal prosecutor and I was disappointed to see how many cops all the time.

“Too many Black women in my family have either been taken by this [HIV] epidemic or have lost their lives because they poured everything they had into us. This is literally about our lives as people of color ⁠— as Black women…to change the course of history.”

In the 50s and 60s, the Army sprayed a potential carcinogen into the air of a Black St. Louis housing project. The government contends it was harmless.

A group of residents today are leading the charge seeking compensation and health studies. They say the secretive testing contributed to various illnesses and premature deaths

“We were experimented on. That was a plan. And it wasn’t an accident.”

Almost four years ago I was shot at school. My best friend, killed next to me. I advocate, I speak on bills, i educate myself on laws, I introduced the President. Today I’ll be at the @WhiteHouse for the introduction of the Office of Gun Violence prevention. This is for you, Dom

Another day. Another Clarence Thomas ethics scandal.

On top of what I covered in this video, today we learned that Thomas secretly participated in fundraising events for the Koch network — which regularly has cases before SCOTUS.

How does Clarence Thomas still have his job?

BREAKING: The Department of Justice has found that the Minneapolis Police Department engages in unconstitutional policing, after a two-year investigation prompted by the murder of George Floyd.

For those claiming my book wasn’t banned, just “aged-up”—The Hill We Climb is an inaugural poem for the world. Relocating it to older age group library shelves by its nature bars younger and equally deserving generations from accessing said moment in history.

What did Elon Musk get for putting the full force of Twitter—broken though it may be—behind Ron DeSantis?

DeSantis just signed a bill that could potentially shield Musk and SpaceX from being sued for accidents that injure or kill crew members. https://t.co/dpmXtm0K1t

Indiana doctor reprimanded for talking publicly about Ohio 10-year-old’s abortion even though she released no identifying details about the girl. This sends a chilling message to doctors to not talk about real world impacts of abortion restrictions. https://t.co/aKBYOihIjp

This is what they want to do nationwide if they get the opportunity. The Florida of today is the United States of tomorrow if they aren’t stopped.

In acquiring church status, the Family Resource Council told the IRS it holds chapel services at its office, averaging 65+ people.

But when we called to inquire about service times, a staffer responded, “We don’t have church service.”

Governor DeSantis is erasing LGTBQ voices, histories, and lived experiences from schools.

We have a right to free speech and inclusive education — that doesn’t go away because powerful figures are offended by diversity in the classroom.
