Thank you @MapQuest

[BlackGirlsWhoBrunch @blckgirlbrunch]

Respectfully, I would love to see the Texas Tribune send some Black reporters to cover this beat in Houston.

There is always something not completely accurate in these posts imo, but what do I know, I'm just a Black voter.

@CaRenaeTX @blckgirlbrunch @NancyMToberman @DNC “Black folks like you” is crazyyyy. This is why you and others like you are labeled “racist” along with your racist president. Go find something safe to do, like learn how to do eye makeup properly. 💋

@keithedwards Keyword is “Texas”. Worry about yourself and your own state. Black Texans will take it from here. Thanks.

@TORlSSECRETS gotta get out of this country ASAP

You can redraw districts, but you cannot erase the power of the people.

This week, I spoke with @Justinjpearson about our continued fight for voting rights — even in the face of efforts to silence and divide us.

For all the “I just don’t like her laugh, people,” please tell me if these high gas prices, lawless losing war, high unemployment, blatant corruption, or racist assault on representation by the confederate south was worth not having to hear her laugh?

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

Today’s Supreme Court ruling guts the Voting Rights Act and turns back the clock on the foundational promise of equality and fairness in our election systems.

Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act was one of the last remaining federal protections for Black and brown voters against maps deliberately drawn to dilute their political power. That protection has been stripped away.

It is an outrage. But it is not a surprise.

It is part of an agenda that conservatives set in place decades ago to steal power from everyday people and then cling to that power for generations.

The court’s decision is motivated by politics and designed to give an upper hand to Donald Trump’s Republican Party, which faces the threat of losing the upcoming midterm elections.

We must pay attention to what happens next.

The fight now returns to the states. Legislatures — particularly those in the South — will rush to redraw districts before voting for the midterms begins in just a few months. Already, Louisiana and Florida are planning to redraw their maps, and we should not be surprised if others rapidly follow suit ahead of the midterms and 2028. Their politically-motivated power grab is meant to protect elected Republicans from any consequences for their failure to make groceries, gas, health care, or housing more affordable for you and your family. They want to cheat and choose their voters, instead of the voters deciding who they choose.

The mission before us is to restore the power of the people. There is no question our fight became harder today, but I know we are up for the battle.

VP Harris reacts to the Supreme Court decision decimating the Voting Rights Act:

"Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act was one of the last remaining federal protections for Black and brown voters against maps deliberately drawn to dilute their political power. That protection has been stripped away. It is an outrage."

The President has lost his mind.

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it.

This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.

Trump's recklessness is needlessly putting our brave service members in harm's way, destroying America's global standing, and making life even more unaffordable for the American people.

We must all stand against this and oppose funding this illegal war of choice.

This is Cherise Doyley.

She was 12 hours into labor when a nurse told her to cover up with a bedsheet.

Then a tablet appeared at her bedside.

On the screen: a judge. Lawyers. Hospital staff.

She hadn’t asked for a hearing. The hospital had.

Doyley is a professional birthing doula. She refused a C-section — she’d had three before, and one left her hemorrhaging. She knew the risks.

It didn’t matter.

And here’s the part people should pay attention to.

The state filed an emergency petition. She had minutes to prepare. No lawyer. No advocate.

A three-hour hearing. In the middle of active labor.

A judge decided how she would give birth.

This is the fetal personhood movement, fully realized.

And it’s already happening. To Black women. In Florida.

Read the full @ProPublica investigation.

“A judge decided how she would give birth.

That’s legal right now.

Should it be?

The worst politicians in America are about to quote Martin Luther King Jr.

You can’t quote “I have a dream” on MLK Day then legislate against that dream every other day of the year.

[Isaac G. Bryan @ib2_real]

Don’t listen to “I Have a Dream” today…
Listen to this instead.
