A few years ago, after reading the entire Agenda47 & all 922 pages of Project 2025, I compiled a list of their 10 worst policies for Black Americans Less than 2 years into his presidency, Trump has accomplished every single goal on his anti-Black MAGA checklist

Project 2025 Performance Review: How Trump Achieved Every Goal of the White Agenda

In less than two years, the Trump administration has fulfilled every aspect of the Heritage Foundation’s plan to make America white again.

The videos can't capture the scope of what's happening. ICE is out of control. ICE accosted a man on his way to a medical appointment, handcuffed him, and forced him back to his house. Agents conducted a warrantless invasion of his home, where his 3 minor US citizen kids lived

ICE agent testifies about how he targeted people: "They're not doing nothing bad. They're just hanging." Q: "Where?" ICE: "Street, store, gas station, anywhere..." Q: "What do they look like?" ICE: "Hispanic males." Can't go anywhere as a Hispanic man in ICE's America.

Approximately 1 out of 3 women will experience sexual and/or physical abuse in their lifetime and you still have men claiming that allegations must be false because there are too many of them. It’s actually the opposite. The vast majority allegations will never become public

Is there a name yet for when a product you've been using consistently for years suddenly decreases dramatically in quality? I'm calling it cheapflation It's not shrinkflation, it's the same quantity. For some reason some brands think they can get away with changing the quality. We fucking notice!

Probably more helpful to think of them not so much as “Canadian wildfires” but rather “climate change wildfires currently consuming Canada”

Officers shooting a man, running away from law enforcement, who is not a target of law enforcement, and who poses no threat to law enforcement, is murder. Federal officers do not have the power to commit summary executions because they are aggrieved.

This isn't tenable. Should be a prereq for Democrats: Create a way to hold federal law enforcement officers civilly liable. Make it retroactive. Do the same for policymakers like Noem, Mullin, and Miller, whose unconstitutional directives are predictably ruining lives and wreaking destruction.

he is not being covered as if he is a terminally unpopular lame duck because the media sees him attempting a coup and attempting to rig elections and think it would be more fun to help him do that than it would be to help stop him

President Trump's net job approval of -25 is lower than Joe Biden's net approval at this stage of his presidency, and lower than Biden ever reached. (@dhmontgomery.com @today.yougov.com) More, via Opinion Today: opiniontoday.substack.com/p/260708-top...

I don't think the government of a democracy should have masked secret police that roam the country murdering people, with their actions treated as totally outside the law.
