*Trump is just Trump*

Trump hosted a campaign rally outside in the middle of the day in Las Vegas despite an extreme heat warning. In triple-degree heat Trump said the quiet part out loud, "I don't care about you, I care about your vote."

Tim Scott’s “ideological alignment” argument is part of the white supremacist strong-arm tactic: either come to believe what MAGA and Republicans believe are be frozen out. It is a forced conversion. It is an extortion. It is the elimination of minority perspectives from public office.

**Healthcare lies!**

@aaronthesocialworker

We’re starting to see a pattern—patients with ostomies being told their supplies aren’t “medically necessary”… and being pushed to reuse colostomy bags beyond safe use.

**Rascism LIes**

@charlesblow

here is a pattern in this country: whenever Black people experience a modicum of advance, the white backlash is swift and devastating. I will not feign amnesia for political reasons. I will never forget how America has behaved in this moment because this is not an isolated incident. This is America’s instinctive reflex.

Respectability politics has never worked for Black people — and it never will with people who don’t respect you to begin with.

“50 already proved he could be successful with music, television, and movies.” Cam’ron keeps it respectful about why 50 Cent’s business moves hit different. He may not be the “safe” choice, but his results make him one of the few entertainers, companies will still bet big on. It Is What It Is Talk
