Maxine Waters is one of the few Democratic politicians I have always had much respect for. She's always spoke truth to power whether it was to Bush or Obama & she has always stood up for the people.

Choosing the VPN That's Right for You

On this day in 1920, a white mob in Ocoee, Florida, lynched as many as 30 Black Americans and razed the Black community because a Black man attempted to vote.

You plant that seed of distrust. Now Obama gonna hear for the next week, "Oh you think she cute". Everything gonna be "Cute" around his house.

What Obama said was out of pocket too. As a married man I'm never calling another woman, publicly where my wife would hear me, cute. I don't need that kinda smoke in my life 😭 I also don't click like sexy pics of women on social media either, that's low key cheating on an emotional level 🤷🏾‍♂️

🤔"Civil rights for Blacks" has not been won.

Again, the civil rights era never ended. You are still in it.

There has never been a presidential election in US history where it was as easy to vote for Black people as for white people. And the voting rights act, MLK Jr's achievement, has been gutted

To the person who said Protests don’t work

The Vietnam War was ended because in large part due to the Protests

Civil Rights for Blacks was also won by Protests

Don’t believe misinformation and block accounts that post it

They ain't never been Civil and they ain't never been Right. They have gutted those laws just like they tore up every treaty they signed with Indigenous people here.

Kamala Harris is a bootlickin' Mammy. Her recent interview praising Elon Musk saying she admires his work as an innovator & what he's done for EV mfg in America is some next level coonism.

Musk is responsible for MILLIONS of deaths gutting USAID via DOGE.

Jay-Z talking about no one could versuz him & folks seem to forget Nas. I know they friends now but all Nas got to do is come out with Ether & put Jay-Z to sleep.

I never was a Jay-Z fan anyway so perhaps I'm bias.

No pun intended, but the elephant in the room is that many Indians who are Hindu, less so Muslims, are racist & follow a caste. Hindutva like the BJP align themselves with white supremacy or proximity to it. These two are a match made in Svarga.

Switching from being a Hindu to a Christian white Nationalist, Evangelical, or whatever they call themselves these days isn't actually that far of a stretch.

Ask that bitch who spent $1 BILLION of your money on a bullshit campaign and told you to cry about it what she’s offering you. Ask the Democratic Party what THEY are offering you
