America's "forever felons" criminal justice must be overhauled, @POTUS. Time for you to do a Round 2 after historic #FirstStepAct.

🚨A slow shift is happening among Black voters — and it’s opening the door for Republicans.🚨 Many in our communities are finally waking up to the hard truths after decades of loyalty to one party. Democrats have taken the Black vote for granted for far too long, delivering failed policies that have left too many cities struggling with poverty, crime, broken schools, and crumbling communities. We’re seeing the push of transgender and extreme leftist ideologies into our neighborhoods and schools — policies that clash with the values of most Black families, especially our religious ones. The relentless promotion of abortion, despite deep moral concerns in the church and community. Yet the same cycle continues: vote Democrat, get the same results. It’s time to wake up. Democrats are actively working to replace the Black vote with millions of illegal immigrants who they hope will become their new reliable bloc — all while some worry more about Supreme Court rulings than real solutions for our people. Meanwhile, look at the record: • President Trump delivered the First Step Act — landmark bipartisan criminal justice reform that gave thousands a second chance, especially benefiting Black communities hit hardest by the system. • He poured real funding into HBCUs — historic support for our colleges and universities to build excellence and opportunity. This isn’t about blind party loyalty anymore. It’s about results. Black voters are asking: What have they done for us lately? And more are choosing to walk away from the failures. The shift is slow, but it’s real. Our communities deserve better than being taken for granted. We deserve policies that lift us up — safer streets, stronger families, real economic opportunity, and freedom from failed experiments. Wake up, family. The door is open. Share if you’re seeing this change too. What do you think — is it time for a new direction? #BlackVoters #WakeUpAmerica #DemocratsFailed #TrumpRecord #FirstStepAct #HBCUfunding #BlackConservatives #WalkAway #RealSolutions #BlackAmerica #VoteBasedOnResults​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ @axios

🚨 TRUMP DROPS TRUTH BOMB ON VAN JONES: “When a devastated (crying like a baby!) Van Jones came to me begging for Criminal Justice Reform… I got it DONE. Needed 5 Conservative Senators and made it happen. Obama couldn’t do it in 8 years. Now this guy runs around calling me a ‘Dictator’ and worse? He should be ASHAMED of himself!!!” Trump delivered real results for the Black community — more than any Democrat leader in modern history. The First Step Act was just one area. He also: • Achieved historic lows in Black unemployment before COVID. • Signed the Opportunity Zones program to drive investment into underserved Black neighborhoods. • Secured record funding for HBCUs. • Launched the Platinum Plan with initiatives on school choice, criminal justice, and economic opportunity. While Democrats made empty promises for decades, Trump produced tangible wins. Actions over words. #Trump #VanJones #FirstStepAct #CriminalJusticeReform #BlackCommunity #OpportunityZones #HBCUs #PlatinumPlan #MAGA #AmericaFirst

📜 The Second Chance Act gives formerly incarcerated individuals the support they need to rebuild their lives and successfully reenter their communities. Passed with bipartisan backing in 2008, it continues to drive rehabilitation, reduce recidivism, and strengthen families through reentry programs and community collaboration. Everyone deserves a #SecondChance #FirstStepAct #SecondChanceMonth #FSA #BOP #Reentry

🚨Trump Delivered More for Black Americans Than Any Recent President — Anton Was Right: Black People Should Support Trump🚨 Trump has done more for Black Americans than Obama, especially through **criminal justice reform** that delivered real second chances — including pardons for rappers. **Results over rhetoric.** **Criminal Justice Reform Focus**: Trump signed the **First Step Act**, fixing crack cocaine sentencing disparities that hit Black communities hardest, expanding rehab programs, and cutting recidivism. Over **90%** of sentence reductions went to Black Americans; thousands gained early release or shorter sentences. He also pardoned prominent rappers: - **Lil Wayne** — full pardon for federal gun charges. - **Kodak Black** — commutation/pardon for weapons offense. - **NBA YoungBoy** — pardon for federal gun charges. **Historic HBCU funding**: Signed the **FUTURE Act** for **$255 million permanent annual funding** (first time ever), plus major boosts including **$495 million** in his second term. **Economic boom**: Pre-COVID, Black unemployment hit **record lows** (5.4%), poverty dropped, jobs surged, and homeownership rose. **Opportunity Zones** drove investment. **School choice & Platinum Plan**: Pushed school choice for Black families, with bold goals for **$500 billion** capital access, **3 million jobs**, and **500,000 new Black-owned businesses**. Bipartisan laws signed, records set, and second chances granted — unlike decades of empty promises leading to dependency. Trump's focus: jobs, safe streets, education, and **real reform**. Black Americans gained from opportunity and strength, not division. Data proves it. Choosing results is common sense. #TrumpForBlackAmerica #CriminalJusticeReform #FirstStepAct #LilWaynePardon #KodakBlack #NBAYoungBoy #ResultsOverRhetoric #HBCUfunding #BlackOpportunity #PlatinumPlan #AntonWasRight #MAGA @stephenasmith

FIRST STEP ACTS FIXES On Episode 71 of Going Rogue with Lara Logan, Bureau of Prisons Director William Marshall explains what his team is doing to fix the long-criticized implementation of the First Step Act. Marshall tells Lara that when he arrived, the law meant to help inmates earn time credits and transition back into society wasn’t being properly administered. He says millions of taxpayer dollars were being spent every day housing inmates, yet the system responsible for calculating earned time credits was outdated and largely done by hand. To address the problem, Marshall says the Bureau of Prisons created a dedicated First Step Act department for the first time, reallocated more than 70 positions that were incorrectly assigned, and implemented a new automated time-credit calculator designed to properly track the credits inmates earn toward earlier release. According to Marshall, the changes are already having an impact, with litigation related to the First Step Act dropping significantly in recent months.

Manufactured racist. Huge gaslighting campaign. @ofcrdeonjoseph Racists don’t sign the First Step Act. HBCUs get mentioned while media, social media, and tech giants get blamed for conditioning. Watch the clip. Full video on Rumble. This is the point. #Trump #FirstStepAct #HBCU #Racism #propagandatop #media #politics

I have never defended or supported Trump or his behavior. I defended and supported his signing of the #FirstStepAct and his Agenda 47 agenda and he’s abandoned both of them. I support good policies and not Presidents. I hope this clarifies things.

You won’t find me in a single photo with Trump, because I never trusted him, but I thought that he would be the best son of a bitch to go after the Swamp Creatures and not align himself with the Swamp. To be clear, I was never a Trump supporter, I supported Trump’s #FirstStepAct back in 2019 and I was a supporter of his Agenda 47 policies. More importantly, I supported the non bigoted and principled MAGA Conservative Republicans, who he has now betrayed. Lastly, I am not supporting any political party ever again until I see some real accountability and justice. No Justice. No Vote.
