West Philadelphia born and raised on the playground is where I spent most of my days!

Yup. Everything we are in today is because of this narcissistic asshole.

Earlier this week, I introduced the DHS Funding Accountability Act to take back the billions Republicans gave ICE in the Big Ugly Bill.

This is a first step toward ending the chaos and corruption this Administration has caused for the American people.

Maybe putting an antivaxxer & heroine addict with brain worms in charge of Health & Human Services was a mistake

Great news as NOLA Mayor Moreno confirms all are accounted for after the collision on the Mississippi River earlier today.

I’ll be joining cnn tonight through night. The FAA onboarded a new AI system 3 days ago. Hard to believe its a coincidence.

Good to see yall up in upstate New York are taking good care of the ancestor Harriet Tubman! I was happy to see those Juneteenth flags by her resting site.

Tim O’Hare, the Texas judge that closed 92 polling stations in Tarrant County, Texas to help give republicans an advantage is out. Voters gave him the boot and replaced him with a black woman. Gotta love that sweet justice.

U.S. Senator Hiram Revels of Mississippi (1870-1871), first Black American in Congress:

Mehdi, Hasan, Cenk, Wajahat-- they are all just *conservative white men.*

Same misogyny, homophobia, antisemitism and ESPECIALLY anti-Blackness.

They are not Republicans because they are not Christian.

So they bring that to the party of women, LGBTQ, Jews, and Black people.

Today the American Cancer Society made important changes to their prostate cancer screening guidelines: Men 50 to 69 should get a PSA test every two years; Black men and men with a family history of prostate cancer should get one every year starting at 45; and starting at age 70, men should talk to their doctors about what's right to them.

I know firsthand the toll of this disease, and I know that catching it early saves lives.

So talk to your doctor, get screened, and let’s keep working to end cancer as we know it.

White Mississippi elites watched their state elect the first Black senators just a few years after the Confederacy fell and made damn sure it would be another 152 years before the Blackest state elected another Black senator. Literally the end of an era

Wow! You won’t believe this… Lessie Benningfield Randle, the last known survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, just turned 112 years old yesterday. Happy belated birthday, Lessie!

INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE (2022) arrives dressed in New Orleans gothic splendour, then gives you Jacob Anderson and Sam Reid sparking like a match near gasoline. It’s lush, wickedly romantic and gloriously theatrical. The pilot is pure gothic perfection.

Happy Birthday to Mrs. Sarah Collins Rudolph. She was the fifth victim of the 16th Street Bombing in Birmingham, AL in 1963. Her sister, Addie Mae Collins, was one of the four little girls who was murdered. Happy Birthday, Mrs. Rudolph!!!!!

Apparently he's struggled to get donations for his library so it has to be at U of Delaware.

Like Jimmy Carter I think his legacy will speak for itself. I just wish he had been treated better when he was our POTUS

[Amunet @VintageSitcoms]

I was just trying to explain to my friend what B. Smith meant to the culture in the 90s. Before lifestyle influencers and personal brands were a thing, she was building an entire empire around food, fashion, entertaining, and luxury. A Black woman showing us what was possible. She really was THAT girl.

[Jasmine Wright @JasJWright]

One detail:

Scott Colom’s advisers tried to keep Kamala Harris out of Mississippi, two Dems say. He went around them and called her himself.

Now his race is too close to call, and he’s crediting her with putting the state’s crumbling rural hospitals on the map.
