FAMU can't use the word Black on anything posted around campus related to Black History Month, to stay in compliance with Florida state laws against DEI. Black students can't use the word Black at their Historically Black College during Black History Month.

Just honked my horn at an ICE agent next to me at a light after he threw his Hardee’s bag out the driver’s window. Better believe he motioned to the holster on his belt, he was so offended.

Senator Jerry Moran of Kansas was the states only Republican representative to condemn Ancient Oranges racist post. I rag on Kansas representatives a lot, so when they do something right they deserve credit.

Kash Patel, a podcaster selected because of his fierce loyalty to the President, told FBI agents not to investigate the details on Renee Good's shooting because it would contradict the President. Fact matter less than the King's opinion in a personalist regime.

We reviewed more than 100 Minnesota license plates attached to immigration enforcement vehicles in recent weeks.
We found that nearly 60% were not registered with the state of Minnesota, including the Chevy Tahoe that federal agent Jonathan Ross traveled in the day he fatally shot Renee Good.
