I think the world needs to hear this AGAIN.

Dow Jones, in its 130 year history has dropped a 1000 points or more 14 times. 12 out of those 14 times were under Donald Trump Presidency.

Congress hasn’t figured this out yet.

Here’s an article from FactCheck.Org on 22 lies Trump told last night. I won’t lists them all, but I’ll mention 2 that anyone with a lick of sense knows are pure bullshit. First, Trump said he gave the troops a $1,776 Patriot Dividend paid for by revenue generated through tariffs. As has been thoroughly documented, the payments came from money Congress had already appropriated as part of the defense budget for housing allowances for military members and had absolutely nothing to do with tariffs. Second, Trump bragged that Republicans are protecting Medicaid. Actually, the One Big Beautiful Bill cut Medicaid by $900 billion and kicks 7.5 million poor and working class Americans off of healthcare coverage … all so the oligarchs and billionaires get bigger tax breaks. So, things are indeed rosy … so long as you completely ignore reality. It must be easy being a Republican where you’re not constrained by morality or by facts … you just MSU (Make Shit Up). open.substack.com/pub/factch…

Dear Anna Paulina Luna, The Enumeration Beyond Entry program, which issues SSNs to LEGAL noncitizens, was launched in 2017 UNDER DONALD TRUMP to streamline work authorization for eligible immigrants. The Social Security cards for noncitizens have the restriction "Valid for Work Only with DHS Authorization,” unlike a U.S. citizen card. It does not give them the right to vote. The Heritage Foundation's own election fraud database found only 77 cases from 1999-2023 of noncitizen voting. Please stop omitting the facts. Signed, Informed Americans

Let the record show what this moment reveals about the moral character of those in power in what Maya Angelou called “these yet to be United States of America.” A towering civil rights giant, Rev. Jesse Jackson, a man who marched with Dr. King, negotiated the release of hostages, registered millions of Black voters, fought apartheid, and spent his life preaching justice, equality, and hope, was denied the dignity of lying in honor at the U.S. Capitol by Speaker of the House Mike Johnson. Yet Charlie Kirk, a deeply polarizing political figure whose rhetoric trafficked in division was elevated, memorialized, and publicly honored. That is not oversight. That is not neutrality. That is selective reverence and blatant, racist hypocrisy. Rev. Jesse Jackson was not merely a Black leader. He was a global statesman of conscience. He stood in the gap for the poor, the marginalized, the forgotten. Even in death, his legacy is being treated as expendable by a government that is increasingly comfortable erasing Black history while appropriating patriotic symbolism. Meanwhile, President Trump ordered flags lowered to half-staff after the assassination of Charlie Kirk, a close political ally whose death prompted official mourning and national tributes. But when a civil rights icon whose work reshaped American democracy passed away, the same urgency, the same national reverence, the same symbolic honor has not been equally reflected in federal gestures of mourning. That contrast speaks louder than any press release ever could. One man spent decades trying to bring America together across racial, economic, and political lines. The other built a career amplifying grievance politics and ideological warfare. One fought for voting rights, economic justice, and human dignity. The other thrived in a media ecosystem fueled by cultural division. And yet, the unifier is sidelined while the divider was elevated. Denying Jackson the Rotunda is more than a procedural decision, it is a political statement about whose legacy this government chooses to sanctify and whose legacy it is comfortable minimizing. The U.S. Capitol Rotunda should honor figures like Jesse Jackson, who shaped the nation’s moral trajectory. To exclude him from that sacred civic recognition is about white supremacy, power, politics, and historical narrative control. It tells Black America, yet again, that: Our heroes don’t matter, our history is disposable, and our contributions are dismissible. This is the same pattern we see in the broader assault on Black history, the rollback of DEI, the sanitizing of civil rights narratives, and the quiet rehabilitation of voices that questioned Black competence, denied systemic racism, and distorted the truth about Black communities. The disrespect shown to Rev. Jackson and his family is not isolated. It is symptomatic of a governing culture led overwhelmingly by white men who are comfortable honoring figures aligned with their ideology while marginalizing those who challenged America to live up to its creed. Jesse Jackson helped bend the arc of history toward justice. He opened doors that many now walk through. He carried the torch of Dr. King when it was unpopular and dangerous to do so. To deny him the honor afforded to lesser figures is not just an insult to a man, it is an insult to the Civil Rights Movement, to Black America, and to the very ideals this nation claims to uphold. History will remember who was honored. And history will also remember who was intentionally overlooked. Because when a nation chooses to diminish its moral giants while elevating its ideological allies, it reveals exactly which version of America it is trying to resurrect, and far too often, that version looks disturbingly closer to Jim Crow than to justice.

🚨 Supreme Court strikes down Trump’s sweeping tariffs as illegal, triggering potential $175 billion in refunds for importers. But guess who profits big? Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s sons at Cantor Fitzgerald bought up tariff refund rights for just 20-30 cents on the dollar after last year’s Liberation Day. For every $100 invested, they’re now looking at 3-5x gains. Welcome to insider America where the connected cash in while the rest pay the price. I don’t care which side is doing it. Should be illegal!
