The destruction of the federal government disproportionately affects black women. The federal civil service has long been a good career option because of the strong equal opportunity enforced in the civil service that has historically blunted the double discrimination that black women face.
Since February, according to my latest analysis, almost 600,000 Black women have been economically sidelined. The November 20, 2025, Jobs Report makes clear this isn’t a blip. It’s a structural crisis. That is not a recovery. It is a redistribution of opportunity.

Hey, Trump. You don’t need to push Putin’s 28-point plan to end the war in Ukraine. Just go with the one point plan to end it: Russia gets the hell out of Ukraine.

Today would be a great day to ban members of Congress and their families from trading stocks, don't you think?
A week before he voted to cut Medicaid, Republican Congressman Rob Bresnahan dumped up to $130,000 worth of stock in four companies that manage nearly half of all Medicaid enrollees in the country.

DHS/ICE, which just got the largest budget increase in its history, claims it doesn't have enough money for hard drives to preserve video evidence in a detainee abuse case at Broadview. Suggests to a judge that maybe the detainees could provide them

Republicans admit their plan to double ACA premiums & throw 15M off health care is a disaster.
Trump’s “big idea” — a one-time check of AT MOST $6,500 — won't even cover cancer treatment or childbirth.
Health care is a human right. It's time to expand Medicare & cut drug prices.

Republicans finally want to talk about health care. That’s good — but their ideas are absurd. - The Boston Globe
Their proposals would take our already broken health care system and make it even worse. Here’s what we should do instead.

A reminder that when Christian Nationalists in the Republican Party lecture you about the importance of "religious freedom," they are not talking about YOUR religion or YOUR freedom. They are talking about THEIR freedom to impose THEIR religion on you.

No it’s important to listen to this. Because then you understand that many of them will do ANYTHING to keep power. Remember Musk got involved in the 2024 election after saying to Tucker “if she wins” I am definitely going to prison.
So we need to move knowing that nothing is off the table for them.
