MLK and other Black Civil Rights Leaders were calling for special programs specifically for Black Americans whose ancestors endured slavery and Jim Crow and predicted people like you would call it reverse discrimination
Stop lying about history that your family never experienced
J6 defendants in no way have been vindicated by Trump’s 2024 election. They broke the law in an effort to overturn the 2020 election. Even if they were duped, they still committed crimes. If you think a bank owes you money, you can’t go in and steal it. https://t.co/ln90oqZ2cp
Every woman in every state must have the freedom to make decisions about her own body.
I am proud to stand with Dr. Traxler and health care providers across our nation in the fight for reproductive freedom.
BREAKING: Renowned former U.S. Army Lieutenant General Russel L. Honoré sounds the alarm about the "national security risk" posed by MAGA billionaire Elon Musk — and he didn't hold back.
America can not afford to ignore this...
"Mr. Musk’s business ventures are heavily reliant on China. He borrowed at least $1.4 billion from banks controlled by the Chinese government to help build Tesla’s Shanghai gigafactory, which was responsible for more than half of Tesla’s global deliveries in the third quarter of 2024," the general writes in an Op-Ed for The New York Times.
"China does not tend to give things away," he adds. "The country’s laws stipulate that the Communist Party can demand intelligence from any company doing business in China, in exchange for participating in the country’s markets."
According to Honoré, this means that China could demand that Musk hand over sensitive materials due to his close proximity to the Trump administration, using his businesses as leverage.
"The last thing the United States needs is for China to potentially have an easier way of obtaining classified intelligence and national security information," writes the general"
"The question now is whether the incoming Trump administration will take this risk seriously," Honoré adds.
"The fact that Mr. Musk spent a quarter of a billion dollars to help re-elect Mr. Trump does not give the incoming White House the license to look the other way at the national security risks he may pose," he writes.
"If Mr. Trump and his appointees mean what they say about getting tough on America’s adversaries, then they will act on this matter without delay. There is too much at stake to ignore what’s right in front of them," concludes Honoré.
He is absolutely right. Musk's dream of being a corrupt oligarch who rules over America cannot be allowed to endanger us all. He must be investigated immediately.

.@POTUS and I fought to lower health care costs for Americans.
I proudly cast the tie-breaking vote to pass the Inflation Reduction Act, which cut prescription drug costs, capped insulin costs at $35 a month for seniors, and empowered Medicare to negotiate lower drug prices.
REMEMBERING PRESIDENT JIMMY CARTER
The King Center joins the world in remembering and celebrating the life and legacy of the Honorable President Jimmy Carter. President Carter was a civil and human rights giant, American patriot, and leader. He was the Governor of the great state of Georgia and served as the 39th President of the United States. During his administration, he took pride in not having to “…launch a missile, fire a bullet, or drop a bomb on anybody…”—a testament to his dedication to peace. We are grateful for the 100 years President Carter was on this Earth and are continually humbled and empowered by his timely contributions to the Martin Luther King Jr. Historical District, to racial equity, civil and human rights as well as his efforts to transform unjust systems. If we had 10 more Jimmy Carters, maybe our world would be a different place today.
We will continue to keep his family in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
#JimmyCarter #RestWell
All Americans owe DC US Attorney Matthew Graves and his staff a debt of gratitude for their work to prosecute the 1,600 defendants who attacked our Capitol on Jan 6, 2021. Political violence cannot be tolerated.

America has 815 billionaires as of this year. Collectively they have a record $6.7 trillion in wealth.
The bottom 50% of Americans control $3.7 trillion in wealth.
When 815 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.
