Black activists or otherwise politically motivated "pro-Black" voices want me to take Ms. Jasmine Crockett as seriously as the (predictably "CAPTURED") entity of BLM.

Sorry! No one discusses BLM's orchestrated rise and fall, nor the strategically empty efforts of the Dems.

@JasonJournoDC Does the Congressional Black Caucus have the courage to "Pivot to BRICS, Africa, & the Global South" like Obama "Pivoted to Asia" because his bosses told him? I'm supposed 2 be infatuated w/ Ms. Crockett's TikTok videos as "empowering & bout 'the street?' " Puhleez.

@JasonJournoDC The Cong. Black Caucus (in warnings abt racism), FAIL to encourage Persons of Color to explore trade with BRICs? The fastest-growing sector in the world? An African YouTuber says that the only ppl who don't trade internationally are African Americans. Address that...please.

@stephenasmith But don't run UNLESS you run Independent, IMHO.

We need a different voice, even if you just throw the system into a tizzy it's a win.

[Louis Starks @starks_louis]

@stephenasmith As an aside, I tried to both Google and Chatgpt that Yale study and lo and behold neither Oligarch platform highlighted it. Tells u a lot how about how information is filtered. Stephen A. run as an Independent and you will see the fangs of the system bare itself.

@Bender4Phil @DocNetyoutube @mamabear_j77 I would replace NY with Michigan, I live in Michigan. However, NY will be historically close, and the "RED" shift is going to be permanent given Mayor Adams issues, the Governor's seeming unlikability and the migrant crisis. Predicting NY win is BOLD, but not ridiculous.

@Radle @KamalaHarris @allthesmokeprod @SenSchumer @TheDemocrats Did none of this, most moral, scientifically based & politically neutral thing is to reclassify/reschedule cannabis for medical purposes. Easily done imo, like a lot of shiny trinkets in the Dem. Party arsenal, aff. housing, child tax cut, healthcare, it's all talk and no cattle.

.@NBC does a somewhat good story on this. Shockingly.

“The 13,099 immigrants convicted of homicide living in the U.S. may have never had contact with ICE, the two law enforcement officials said.

“Some may have crossed the border and then been released because Border Patrol lacks information on their criminal history.

“In many cases, the U.S. is not notified of someone’s criminal conviction until after they cross into the country.

“In other cases, migrants convicted of crimes may be released by state and local officials after they serve their time without ICE being notified, as is policy in many sanctuary cities. ICE then has to locate the person after release in order to detain and deport them.”

And I can refute nonsense to the contrary by keeping my mouth shut and playing a song from my album collection for anyone everyday 365. "I'll write a song for you, you me a song for me..."

Do your historical/contextual homework. Now YouTube promotes weak, pathetic songsters.

Catching up on FB, I'm slo mo with Soc. Media. Fascinating to see women use FB to post pics n old dude like me expect to see on Instagram or Only Fans, neither I much watch. Need to work on the Gram not the Fans just saying... as I level up my FB activities output.

My argument and my "receipts" are based upon the music, culture, and attitude I grew up in. You are extraordinary naturally. And I share the music because it expresses that organic time of my growth and shaping. No "toxic masculinity" shaped the Black Power Movement music.
