A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Yearโ€™s Eve. And like Renรฉe Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need yโ€™all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

Trump supports ethics laws as long as he is exempt Just a few months ago, President Trump was an enthusiastic supporter of legislation that would ban members of Congress from owning or trading stock.

A stock trading ban that exempts Trump.

Fires the ethics watchdog overseeing the executive branch.

Gutted the office investigating sex trafficking while covering up the Epstein files.

Stopped investigating crypto fraud while taking bribes from crypto bros.

See a pattern?

Does he call Ted Cruz, "Rafael Cruz", his real name? People Americanizing their name points to the discrimination people face when they keep their traditional cultural names.

JUNETEENTH in Harlem.

This is what America is about.

Perhaps the most American holiday of all, Juneteenth honors the very best of what this country can be. Itโ€™s a celebration of the courage to fight for freedom, even when the cost is steep.

Itโ€™s sad that the president gets angry over this

I'm curious how many Americans ask their boss for a pay cut when they are already NOT earning enough money to pay their bills? Isn't this what congress is doing? We have a huge deficit and they passed a bill that cuts America's income by giving tax cuts which will increase the debt even more.

The good news is that the constitution provides ways for Congress and the Judiciary to reign in a power-hungry president. The bad news is those people are all scared of him.

Bates: He inherited an economy that was the best-performing in the world. But in just two months, heโ€™s crashing that economy with the biggest tax increase on middle-class families in 50 yearsโ€”raising the prices he promised he would lower, and breaking his number one promise to them.

We know that most of these new jobs in factories won't be people. They will be automated robots. Corporations will make more money because they won't have to pay robots wages or benefits. .
