White folks repeat history, music & everything else they cherish. They don't allow anything treasured &/or that reinforces white supremacy to fall down the memory hole. AfroAmerican/FBA/ADOS should never allow white folks to forget about the legacy of slavery & the reparations they owe us. That also includes attacking the system of racism white supremacy. Many ministers & speakers as a part of their cadence repeat certain words & phrases for emphasis. Repetition makes messages & lessons stick. I'm neither a minister or public speaker but as a musician, I understand the method. We do the same thing with music i.e. repeating certain motifs.๐

Media Allows Use of Phrase Illegal Alien
The phrase illegal alien is considered derogatory & offensive. Yet, right-leaning media personalities are being allowed to use rhe phrase while they're on-air. Interestingly, there's no public outcry especially from the Hispanic community most affected by the phrase. The same white folks using illegal alien probably wish they could say n8gger & get away with it.๐

Made in China--Why is it Considered USA Adversary?
Right. Mao killed millions of Chinese people. It didn't keep the population from growing. Capitalism isn't bad. The tilted playing field is a major obstacle for certain groups of people. Money will make folks do something from tame to strange for some change. A population over 1 billion people is a lot of mouths to feed. Gotta put them to work by any means necessary.๐

Things Are Eerily Quiet..........
The USA has not put any boots on the ground in Iran. Whole war has been aerial. So, the chance of a draft are zero. As a result, the war in Iran is a non-issue to young folks. No different from Desert Storm & War in Iraq back in the 1990s & 2000s. No protests during those conflicts either. It's proof that many Americans are doing well enough to grin & bear the escalating price of gas. I would offer that people are doing well enough to keep a roof over their heads, food in the fridge, reliable transportation, alcohol, drugs, etc. & just enough access to money & credit to make ends meet. That's why fewer people are protesting in the streets. Life isn't that bad.๐๐

There's a reason cable TV airs several programs about World War II every day of the week. Why would white folks have on a continuous loop, a historical event (war) that happened 84 years ago & cost millions of lives? Don't know which generation to which he belongs but I believe @richardmurray would prefer to live in Haiti if unknown circumstances didn't prevent him from relocating there.๐

They are protesting at the ICE facility in Newark, NJ this week. A few folks have been arrested. Last week, Secret Service shot a man near the White House after he opened fire on them. He later died at the hospital. There's a certain amount of F8ck Trump protests happening around the nation. The media is not reporting most public protests because the current administration has them shook. ๐

Democratic National Committee (DNC) 2024 Post-Election Report
PBS NewsRead the DNC's full post-election autopsy for the 2024 ca...Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin released a critical study of the party's performance in the 2024 campaign on Thursday, bowing to intense internal pressure from frustrated Democratic opeTo avoid raining on a Democratic win parade, the DNC waited until after the 2025 election of VA Governor Abigail Spanberger & a few other Democratic candidates to release their autopsy of the 2024 election. Of course, anyone who pays attention to the news clearly knows how & why the Democrats lost heavily back in 2024 leading to the re-election of POTUS OJ. To date, the Democratic party still has not offered an alternative plan or solution to the GOP BS Americans are dealing with on a daily basis. Democrats believe they will do well in the mid-terms merely as a result of the GOP's own undoing. They think Americans will be fed up enough to vote blue regardless. While it is possible that mid-terms elections could swing the House back to Democrats, there is no guarantee that it will make POTUS OJ a lame duck. The current administration has already shown & proven that they don't need Congressional approval to do much of anything. IMO, POTUS OJ will continue grifting & enriching his family & friends during the last 2 years of his presidency. That should not prevent Democrats from growing a spine & coming with tangible benefits to the American people for whenever the current dark clouds roll away & POTUS OJ the clown leaves the White House.๐

Government Plans to Release UFO/UAP Files
The government is not above putting out bogus information, files & images. I don't really have any control over whether or not I'll live long enough to see verifiable proof of UAP/UFO/ET.๐๐
-
Is it just me or do you think aliens had anything to do with it?
An adult person doesn't really have free or leisure time if/when their basic needs are not met. Unless they are eating & sleeping a shelter. Poor & unemployed people do not have free time. Worrying stems from knowing they are skating on thin ice & borrowed time. The possibility of falling through the ice & drowning could happen at any time.๐๐

Government Plans to Release UFO/UAP Files
Thanks for providing it but still looks like same images we've been getting for a long time. You're definitely not alone. There's plenty UAP/UFO/ET enthusiasts. As a non-believer, in my lifetime, I think it would be great if I was proven wrong.๐๐

Government Plans to Release UFO/UAP Files
To date, the public does not have any verifiable proof of anything these people claim as it relates to UAP/UFO/ET. At a certain point, the talking points of the images & files seem to come from the same playbook. Just like any form of entertainment & drugs & alcohol, these distractions provide people with another form of escapism from their routine lives. As long as there are customers/consumers for anything, there will always be pushers/producers...people who know how to capitalize on providing that something.๐

2nd Congressional sub committee on UAP/UFO...
Interesting to consider it truth when there is no verifiable proof. I've watched Ross Coulthart a number of times interviewing on the subject of UAP/UFO. Seems to be how he's earning a living as a journalist. As long as they are not bringing hurt, harm or danger to other people, I do not begrudge how someone else makes their money.๐

And the beat goes on...
It's been a while since we've mentioned what Black folks need to do.๐ For the most part, Black folks are doing a great job of sitting on the sidelines & watching POTUS OJ & the GOP run amok. A couple of non-white dudes have either gotten arrested or unalived for supposedly trying to get at POTUS OJ. We're not claiming those clowns.๐คฃ Pop culture works too. I remember Arsenio Hall having a successful late-night TV show & acting in a few movies. Didn't know he released his memoir.๐

Rob Base "It Takes Two" Has Passed Away
Starting back in 1988 up to present, this song has been played everywhere. No party or cookout or gathering is complete without this song. Rob Base born Robert Ginyard passed away from cancer @ 59 years old. RIP.๐

Back to the Future: DOW Corporations and other large corporations move their Back offices to LATAM
The dope epidemic didn't produce as much violence & murder as the crack epidemic. The War on Drugs was declared when Black folks started getting a lotta money & murder rates skyrocketed across the country. POTUS Bill Clinton's 1994 Crime Bill incarcerated a whole lotta Black folks. That's why there are 2 million people being warehoused in US prisons. More prisoners in the US than every other country combined.๐

Hantavirus But No Reason to Worry
Not to be out-done, the Ebola virus has resurfaced in the Congo. A couple hundred folks have died. No cure for the current virus. Folks traveling back to America from over there are being quarantined in the 51st state, er, Canada.๐คฃ๐

Government Plans to Release UFO/UAP Files
I believe they dangle carrots to 1) keep the conspiracy theorists occupied & 2) justify spending money on UAP/UFO investigations. The Golden Dome in Israel is an example of that technology in use. The US helped build it. The current administration has talked about spending money to build a Golden Dome here. Nevermind the continental US (CONUS) hasn't been invaded by foreigners since the 1800s. For the military history buffs, Pearl Harbor is not CONUS.๐ The stealth technology US military aircraft has is close to having a force field around it. They can attack without being detected by radar systems.๐

Government Plans to Release UFO/UAP Files
If Congress is investigating UAP/UFO, it's a distraction from everything else the current administration is doing. Yet, none of these countries has released those recordings or material proof of UAPs/UFOs. Unless the US has bought them off...monopoly. My 1st thought upon hearing that a Tomahawk missile bounced off a UAP was that the US military must have been testing new technology.๐๐

Made in China--Why is it Considered USA Adversary?
It is ridiculous for the USA to pretend that China is an adversary. False equivalence. Most prisoners are imprisoned for a reason. Sure. There's always room fo mr critique & complaint. Change usually requires action. Humans have the ability reason, rationalize & control themselves. Not the same consequences but in both sports & war, there are winners & losers.๐
