What broke me?

The news story that is being intentionally ignored about the little 5 year old Black girl who was scalped, beaten and sexually assaulted by THREE WHITE CHILDREN AGED 8-10.

Her mother weeping on camera begging for justice.

White families teach their children this violent hatred.

And the number of copycat crimes where masked men do the same, because there are no rules or standards across ICE behavior puts everyone at as much risk. This has been chaos and no one is safe from it.

Lauryn Hill just shared a moving tribute to the late D’Angelo:

People need reflection.

I regret not having more time with you. Your undeniable beauty and talent were not of this world, and a presence not of this world needs protection in a world that covets light and the anointing of God. You sir, moved us, stirred us, inspired and even intimidated others to action with your genius. Thank you for being a beacon of light to a generation and beyond who had no
remembrance of the legacy that preceded us. Thank you for charting the course and for making
space during a time when no similar space really existed.

You imaged a unity of strength and sensitivity in Black manhood to a generation that only saw itself as having to be one or the other. It is my earnest prayer that you are in peace, far away from selfishness, fear and/or controlling interests. Far from possessiveness, far from greed, far from manipulation, far from exploitation, far from intentionally designed chaos and that you Brother are in peace, in bliss and in eternal light and fulfillment with our Father in heaven. I Love you and I miss you. May God grant peace and shelter to your family, true friends and genuine appreciators, Brother, King.

I'm blocking people who insist if they don't like the Democratic candidate, they will withhold their vote.

They are damaging to the Democratic Party, and more important, to American Democracy.

They'd rather have Trump than vote for a Dem who isn't their ideal candidate. I'm over it, and them.

This SCOTUS has already ruled that racial profiling is legal.

1. That's racist.
2. It's disparate impact on Black/Brown people. Which means they no longer care if something has a disparate impact.

What stops them from saying it's legal to detain someone if they look gay or atheist?

In the United States, unsolved murders of Black people are about 50%.

Unsolved murders of White people are about 22%.

That’s because cops leave no stone unturned when the victim is White, but they leave every stone unturned when the victim is Black.

If I hear one more so-called educated White person call this orange idiot a skilled politician, I will choke myself with my own hands.

Don Corleone wasn't a skilled politician. He was a mobster who got people to do what he wanted, or he would kill them.

"Democrats historically have slightly higher rates of ticket splitting than Republicans in many elections, especially in presidential vs congressional votes."

"Republicans tend to be more straight-ticket, particularly in the last 20–30 years."

We do it to ourselves.

It hasn’t slipped my mind that we keep being pestered with these same circular remedial conversations.

You can’t help but wonder is this by design? Are we allowing them the space and time to relight age the immorality of kidnapping and enslaving our ancestors then perpetuating that violence today?

I am sounding the alarm that the GOP is engaged in an all out attack voting rights and free and fair elections. Voter suppression, gerrymandering, and troops in blue cities are just some of the ways they are using to try to rig the rules to keep power in 2026 and beyond.

Pay attention and act!
