I was waiting for this. While watching the Super Bowl halftime show last night, I mused about how many White Conservatives would immediately become enraged over all the fun everyone in the stands was having. And boy, I was not wrong! White people who fear us and envy us will never get over our staying power, our talent and our intelligence. They could not wait to criticize the halftime show. Bengals rookie kicker Evan McPherson actually stayed on the field to watch the entire show. Don’t worry, White racists. What you witnessed is just another display of Black Excellence. You should have drank it all in. This way, you might have been able t…

The Diwali Festival in America-- Not Recognized in Ethiopia So now, I brought this up years ago because of the hidden reasons why it has become so crucial to pass laws here in America when Obama became became president. Now this festival was recognized before Obama by the Bush presidents, but they keep bring it out more and more under Obama. It is so important that it is a festival honored in the White House. It has been observed on a huge scale in grand palaces and arenas here in America. But this will NEVER be accepted in Ethiopia among the Original Israelites for a reason that has been suppressed. Alth…

Republicans demand your vote, but don't care if you or your diabetic friends and relatives die when they can't afford their insulin. I guess that's why sliced a measure to prevent private insurers from gouging insulin patients from the Democrats' climate and economic bill that was just passed in the Senate. And before anyone says "it would have cost too much," remember those trillion dollar tax cuts for the rich. The money was supposed to "trickle down" to the Middle Class and the Poor. Republicans block cap on insulin costs

I still believe every single black person online should be a member of at least one black owned website online. But what is their overall future. When you have so many black people who suggest such a grand business acumen or knowledge of playing the game, or suggest such great foresight plus intellect with their licenses and degrees from various places of education, why haven't said blacks been able to buy and produce great social media websites?

The Cellist states something few state, London has no toll to get into the city so when they did congestion pricing that was the first toll into London. New York City is full of tolls. And the comparisons to Singapore which is a wealthy city state, or stocklhom which is the only city in a low populace country full of natural resources, are dysfunctional to new York city which is the largest city in a country with over three hundred million people. And Oren Barzilay admitted that EMS workers live in shelters, they are not on welfare, but they don't make enough to live outside the shelters. ...

It’s Older Black Democrats and Older White Republicans which are stopping more Blacks from joining the Republican Party. Still young Black men and women are waking up to the reality that the GOP holds the key to access to the American Dreams. The Biden administration is demonstrating how Big Government policies are making life harder for all Americans. It’s estimated that 25% of Black voters will be returning to the Republican Party.

POTUS has issued two threats: 1) Sanctions and tariffs against Russia if they violate the cease-fire deal in war with Ukraine: https://www.reuters.com/world/trump-threatens-russia-others-with-sanctions-if-ukraine-deal-not-reached-2025-01-22/ 2) Bomb Iran if they continue pursuing a nuclear weapon: https://www.reuters.com/world/trump-says-there-will-be-bombing-if-iran-does-not-make-nuclear-deal-2025-03-30/ Polar opposite approaches in terms of diplomacy. Kid gloves for Russia. Sledgehammer for Iran. Surely, there's no confusion as to why these countries are viewed and treated so differently.😎

In this case of n8gglet sh8t, this dude choose to go to jail not for advocating reparations but instead, he chose to carry water for the Democratic party. Those same bootlicks and shills stomping for non-Black folks will be unceremoniously ignored by their political party when the dust settles. Even if these Black mayors like Adams & Baraka aspire to higher office, they still have to prove they can tow …

The two paramedics who injected Elijah McCLain with ketamine have been found guilty: https://www.cbsnews.com/colorado/news/paramedics-elijah-mcclain-death-ketamine-colorado-jury-ruling/ That's a start. The police officers involved need to be found guilty as well. Every last one of them, police and paramedics failed that young man and ultimately took his life. It's not enough to fire these clowns because they'll show up somewhere else and get a law enforcement job. Lock them up.😎

Also it has been reported that the average temperature in Siberia during the month of June would be around 68 degrees, but 100 degrees Fahrenheit!? Man! These are the last days before a new ‘day’!

The New York Times WASHINGTON Defense Department officials said on Saturday that American-led strikes against Syria had taken out the “heart” of President Bashar al-Assad’s chemical weapons program, but acknowledged that the Syrian government most likely retained some ability to again attack its own people with chemical agents. What exactly is really going on? Reputable sources here say it was all a big 'scamola' between the Russia, Syrian, and the U.S. forces. While I'm waiting for verifiable images from folks on the ground in Syria, thought I'd share what I've heard thus far. The building, so-called factories were empty, no human occ…

Who would ever think that people in Lake Tahoe and California would be devastated by the raging fires that seem to be unstoppable? It is reported that at least 15,000 fire fighters are working day and night to extinguish the deadly Caldor fire. There is no question that these brave fire fighters must have gas mask to protect themselves from smoke inhalation. But how many people know including these fire fighters that a Black inventor invented the gas mask which operates according to the same principles as the gas mask use today. This inventor's name is Garrett Morgan. He invented the gas mask during his day it was known as a smoke helmet to fight fires. The purpose of t…

https://www.axios.com/2024/12/16/biden-dnc-holiday-reception-harris This past weekend, POTUS PJB (Papa Joe Biden) touted the accomplishments of his administration and encouraged Democrats to keep up the fight to make America better. This is consistent with spam emails and phone calls the Democratic party is still sending out begging for donations. At this point, it's pathetic. 0n his way out of the White House, I guess POTUS PJB patting himself on the back is some form of consolation to getting his party kicked squarely in the azz.🤣 There's nothing Democrats can do in the short term to counter what could be an incoming tsu…

https://people.com/paris-jackson-questions-payouts-made-by-father-michael-jackson-estate-11770577 It appears lawyers are treating the late Michael Jackson's (MJ) estate like an ATM machine by charging extras fees. Paris Jakcson, daughter of the King of Pop, is on the case. She's challenging payments that were made several years ago. The executor of MJ's estate is Jewish. Mj's *children* are white. I don't believe he's their biological father. I have zero sympathy for MJ's estate because he made a fortune and gave it right back to white folks. I just hope that at some point Black folks learn how to gatekeep thei…

I am fortunate, I know my parents parents story. I know the partial story of my parents/parents/parents. Charles Blow talks about black people moving back to the south, the article is linked below. But for me he dysfunctionally misses the motivation for most blacks. Yes, black people were and are financially poorer than whites in the usa, but black people fled the south because of whites. I will never forget the fortune of speaking to a family friend who said all the women in his black town was raped by white men, all, and yes, he was high yella. Black people in modernity love to talk about hanging or death or electrocution when it comes to the pas…

See the two ads below. The are inserted into the discussion forum virtually indistinguishable from a forum post with the exception of a tiny little icon green icon that says "Ad." I would image that these are are very effective given how seamlessly the fit into the page. The ads are also high quality books from major publishers. in fact, I was unaware of Anita Hill's new book -- until I saw it advertised on my own site! I should be happy, but I have mixed feelings as I do not have the technical capability to create these ads on my own, nor do I know how much Google is making serving these ads on my site.

The Governor of Illinois starts begging the Governor of Texas to stop sending illegal immigrants up to his state: ‘I Plead with You for Mercy’: Pritzker Urges Abbott to Stop Sending Migrants to Chicago amid Winter Storm (msn.com) This is obviously weak and pitiful for a politician to supposedly do to another on an equal executive level. He has just as much power to send them BACK as Abbot has to send them up. On top of that, why doesn't BIDEN step in and do something? I already know the answer but....it simply looks weak and it's become obvious now that BOTH parties are in cahoots with eachother and playing games on the people. But when was the last t…

Kejanji Brown Jackson, not a Judge 4 ‘Black’ People April 6, 2022 Dear Family, Perhaps you might want to hold your excitement on Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson becoming a juris for the White Supremacy Court of the divided states of America. In case you are not aware, chose to ignore, or simply do not care about justice for the Black Collective, a former ‘black’ federal judge in Alabama asked Jim Crow Joe Biden not to nominate Jackson to the bench. As we can see, Biden chose the opposite. https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/593978-first-black-federal-judge-in-alabama-ask-biden-not-to-nominate/. Following that ignored request, another news article wa…

https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/15/politics/kfile-jd-vance-comments-trump/index.html Former POTUS Orange Julius has selected Senator JD Vance (Ohio) as VP pick. Sen. Vance is 39 years old. Look no further than 2016 when JD Vance couldn't stand former POTUS OJ. His criticism is available for everyone to read and hear. Somehow, as POTUS, OJ supposedly made JD Vance believer in his vision for America. Yeah right.😁 White folks will change political parties and ideologies as easily as changing clothes or dance partners. The Dems might start begging and pleading with Black folks votes if they're interested in maintainin…

In a world that has become increasingly computerized, artificial intelligence (A.I.) occupies a prominent place in the technology equation. It also poses an ominous threat. How so? Because it makes humans dispensable, and does so in some of the most unlikely areas of every day life; such as card games. I read somewhere that with all of their high-tech programming, robots do not make especially good bridge payers. Something l can attest to. I am a fan of this game which i have been playing since i entered college 70 yeas ago. Back in the 1950s before the advent of television, and the Internet, Bridge was a very popular past time among campus denizens. Today …

https://apnews.com/article/biden-age-senate-investigation-fitness-republicans-a39d86a556f0ffd862ae47e35dc5fb74 POTUS OJ won re-election back in November 2024. Not a day goes by that hes not blaming the last administration for everything that is wrong in the world. The sphere of influence POTUS OJ has over the GOP is beyond ridiculous. They are willing to push his agenda no matter how ridiculous. Right now, there are Congressional hearings on the mental acuity of former POTUS Joe Biden. The man has been out of office for 6 months and he won't be coming back. Instead of savoring the win of reclaiming the White House, POTUS OJ…

To the needle moving, Biden could had chose stacey abrams who is more functional like shirley chisholm but chose kamala harris who is less industrious while also like obama or adam clayton powell jr is phenotypically not the image of "pure blackness" like chisholms' color suggest.

Happy Independence day to the majority of hard woking, patriotic Americans. Dependence day is for those with a sense of entitlement who continue to make excuses for irresponsible decisions and irresponsible lifestyles. Dependence day should not be celebrated. We do celebrate and continue to help those who are truly in need due to circumstances beyond their control or those that just fell on some hard times and need help in the short term. Rather than search for excuses, search for solutions. Liberals hate solutions but love excuses. happy 4th of July !!!!!!

Of course, that was never going to sit well with POTUS OJ. Not even 1 year into his second term, the same clown who claimed he wasn't going on a revenge and retribution campaign if re-elected has done it anyway. AG James has been defiant in declaring her innocence and willingess to fight the charges. Trust that she already has her defense strategy on lock.😎

There's a possibility the Russia-UkraIne conflict could end sooner than later. To date, more than 2 million people in total have been unalived in that war. When the bullets and bombs stop, Ukraine still won't be a member of NATO. The Russia-Ukraine conflict was an exercise in which cousins unalived each other over a territorial dispute. These countries have destroyed lives and property at the cost of billions of dolllars. Surely, money that could have been better spent making life better for its citizens. Instead, Russians and Ukrainians were cheering for their side as if it was a sporting event. The…
