New Florida Bookstore Celebrates Black History and Culture
Looked like a scene out of a Denzel Washington American Gangsta movie....lol. Brutha man marched up the street.....opened the door....and walked in with his head up like, "Alright.....WASSUP!!! Where my money at?????" The only thing missing was the screams and glass breaking.....LOL. Then check out how he was looking at the reporter during the interview...... He was looking at him with one eyebrow raised like Frank Lucas was looking at Nicky Barnes when he came to his club to pay him a visit....lol.

16 Books Missing From the Bible: Have They Been Published?
Well at the end of the Bible in the book of Revelations, it clearly warns the read not to add too or take away from the book. So the fact that so many people have added to, redacted from, and mis-translated the Bible shows you how much faith many of them have in the words themselves. It's one thing for an atheist to make oaths and break them, but I wonder what goes through the mind of a devoutly religious person who will sit up and choose to deliberately break an oath to their marriage or one they took for political office. Seems to me that they'd be fearful of the consequences of that action.

More Blacks should support Vivek Ramaswamy
Just another GLARING example that of all peoples....we as AfroAmericans need to be VERY careful and investigate exactly WHO they're letting in this nation. Thoroughly investigate and vet their ass before they even step off the damn plane or ship! Check their FAMILY history too! We already have enough racists to deal with among White folks. We don't need them bringing in more "undercover" and "not so undercover" BACK UP SQUADS and BUFFERS with yellow, brown, and tan faces. When you listen to the comment both Vivek and Nikki Haley have been making lately.....seems to me they're trying to "out White" White folks in their racism. A lot of these Indians feel that they can "prove" their Whiteness. I was listening to one Indian on a podcast the other day talking about the comparison between racism in the U.S. and racism in historic India with the caste system. He said that that White folks in the U.S. were so "nice" to us! He said that during slavery White folks had Black folks in the house washing their clothes, cooking their food, and even sleeping with them. He said they would NEVER do that with those "dirty people" in India. He said they keep the Untouchables OUTSIDE and consider it a sin to so much as LOOK at them.

GOP Field of Dreamers Thins Out
Well..... After Trump's major victory in Iowa..... I'd say that regardless of party or political lines, the momentum for him is MUCH stronger than it is for Biden. I'll keep it real....... There's a lot of opinions online but on the street and in the workplace, I haven't heard of ANY Black folks rocking for Biden. Infact, most Black folks are like me and don't trust EITHER ONE. However of those who DO....nearly all of them are for Trump. And most of the White men I know who are for Trump are VEHEMENTLY for Trump. They are already balling their mouths up and looking crazy in the eyes about how Trump "better" win and how they "better not" tamper with the elections again. If Trump GETS in office.....the nation is in trouble. But if Trump DOESN'T get back in office.....it could get SUPER ugly.

Black People do NOT need Reparations
🙄 -What kind of deformed Negro talks like THAT??? I ain't heard NOBODY pronounce reparations as "repo-raisins" !!!!! What kind of Black folks have YOU been hanging around....lol????? The ones in your Special Education class or something??? Matter of fact....... Just about very Black person I've heard.....even those with the most broken English....can say THAT word properly.....lol. "Look heah mayne.... They can sit up and talk all the shit they want to but I done already figu'd out what ahm go do with mah REPARATIONS MONEY when ah git it!" Brutha might fuck up a lot of words, but when it comes to money....he's going to get it RIGHT.🤣 But on a more serious note....... Isn't it strange how they have to do a "panel" and "study" when it comes to giving Black Americans something but when it comes to these illegal immigrants arriving in New York by the bus loads....by the train loads.....by airplane.....dropping them off way over in New Jersey so they sneak across the damn river.....they don't need a damn "panel" or "study" for THEM. Washington and Albany and Springfield IMMEDIATELY sends in the cash and benefits for THEM and even houses them up in hotel rooms. Arsenio Hall said, "Things that make you go 🤔- hmmmmmmm."

Do Blacks actually want Segregation ?
What most AfroAmericans want today is SEPARATION....not Segregation. There's a difference........... 50 or 60 years ago most AfroAmericans didn't want Separations. Some did...a minority...but most wanted full integration into White society because they felt it would make us better off collectively. Now 50 and 60 years later, we realize that it did not. While SOME Black folks benefited....MOST of our people are worse off today than most of their grand parents were back during the Jim Crow era. Personally.....I want BOTH: SEPARATION with the option to INTEGRATE as needed or desired, lol.

Every brutha has seen a sista like her in highschool....lol. Fine but smart sista who sits in class and keeps quiet and focuses on doing her studies so she can bounce out of there, into some HBCU and then on to either an Ivy League school or government job. I didn't even do any research on her but I bet she was involved in all kinds of "student this" and "student that" in highschool and college preparing herself for a leadership role later on.

Oprah. Winfrey. ...Black. Entertainment....
ProfD I can't blame him too much because she wasn't a bad looking woman at all. I like older women period, but this one was in her late 60s and with a huge round butt and a warm "Latino" accent and attitude. However she was still for the most part White....Caucasian. I don't consider her a "sista" and kept trying to get this over to my manz....lol. Being Latino, or Arab, or any other ethnicity doesn't change your race. I've met many White Latinos and White Arabs who were just as racist as the typical White Anglo Saxon American. Hell, the White Spanish were enslaving Black folks before the White English.....and this pop-eyed gravel bearded nicca can't even hold a conversation without hopping up every 5 minutes running over to the White Latina woman trying to almost drag her back to where we were sitting to involve HER into the conversation, lol.

This Is Obviously Weak And Pitiful Of A Governor
I meant send the military down there to confront the Texas "troops" or National Guardsmen or whatever the hell they are that Abbott is using to intimidate the Border Patrol. Border Patrol are federal officers. How in the hell can a Governor order his state police or even his national guard to challenge them and keep them away from international borders? Biden and the others in Washington are simply ALLOWING him to do this...because he certainly doesn't have the authority or manpower to usurp Federal authority. Again, just another reasons I stopped supporting the Democrats. Just weak for the sake of being weak.

16 Books Missing From the Bible: Have They Been Published?
🤔.....well, if they're "missing" and "hidden".....why do so many people know about them? The Catholic Bible has books that the King James Version (most used by Protestants) don't have; so she can start with that....lol. There seems to be 2 Books of Enoch. One is from Ethiopia and the other from either Armenia or Albania, forgot exactly which nation. The Book of Enoch like much of the Bible itself isn't authentic but is a book of ALLEGORY that tells history in symbolic form. Much of it really is about the Black soldiers stationed on the Caucasus mountains to keep guard (watchers) over the Caucasians who were banished there. If she was the more scholarly type who loves to read religious doctrine and legalism and not a lot of fluffy fairytales....then she should read a collection of books called the Babylonian Talmud. But again, this is for the more serious minded.

Frankster and Pioneer1 round 2
Troy ??? I didn't know his channel has even been AROUND for 6 months. I thought it was only a few months old. I started watching him when he was on another channel right before he got kicked off. He's not the smartest dude in the world but he reminds me so much of a couple of cats I grew up around. Infact, I have a cousin who acts and sounds like him....lol. His religious devotion, mixed with his huge size, almost juvenile emotionalism and quick temper is very charismatic and will suck you in to just watching the brutha for entertainment.....lol. I believe he said he's from Harlem too.

Oprah. Winfrey. ...Black. Entertainment....
If the benefits you mentioned, hinge on Black folks getting on code..... Then the question is....will Black folks GET codified? It's strange that we're having this exchange as I sit in a Panera Bread cafe arguing with a Black man who INSISTS that the older White Latina woman with a huge round butt cleaning the tables is OUR SISTA and keeps trying to drag her into OUR conversation....lol. 1. I don't want her in the conversation....and she doesn't WANT to be in it, atleast while she's working. 2. I don't accept her as part of our race or people....and neither does she. ....but this brother is so obsessed with her pale skin and big butt that he would rather argue with me about her just being "lost". Man, if you could be here to see the scene....lol

This Is Obviously Weak And Pitiful Of A Governor
ProfD Facts. Too many Black folks refuse to accept it. And another fact is, unfortunately too many Black folks simply DON'T CARE one way or another. They don't care enough to even pay attention to the matter. That's why GOP governors are sending migrants to sanctuary cities. That's also why Governor Abbott can mobilize his national guardsmen to actually confront and defy federal officers on the border and President Biden does NOTHING about it. He's literally instigating a CIVIL War. Biden would be totally within the law to deploy the U.S. military down there.

This Is Obviously Weak And Pitiful Of A Governor
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 time you heard a Republican "beg for mercy" from a Democrat?

Georgia DA Fani Willis Smear Tactic
Well..... First of all I did a brief check on both of them and it seems that Fani Willis has been divorced since 2005. I'm still trying to determine the marital status of Nathan Wade but from what I've seen he filed for divorce back in November of 2021. I'm not sure when these alleged affairs first began...if ever. My question is why is CNN even BRINGING UP this question in an atmosphere of supposed "objective journalism"? Who cares "why him"? Did they ask these questions of the lawyers who helped prosecute Bill Cosby or Jonathan Majors? And WHO'S asking these questions? Are these questions being asked by his political enemies? Why is CNN giving focus and attention to questions being raised about the man's obvious haters? And ofcourse a defendant he's prosecuting will make those type of allegations. He'll say anything to take the focus off of HIM and what HE did and put it on those prosecuting him, but again.... The question is why would CNN even entertain THEIR questions? Do they do this with the Black defendants being prosecuted by White DA's? When Bill Cosby or Jonathan Majors questioned the ethics of THEIR prosecutors, did CNN or other major news outlets give voice to THEIR concerns and investigate the integrity of those prosecutors? Check out the WORDING of this accusation though! It doesn't say he actually billed the district attorney's OFFICE for those "lavish" vacations! It says he USED THE MONEY that he received from billing the office to go on those "lavish" vacations. 1. What kind of "objective journalism" is this when you describe someone's vacation time that they probably deserved from working long hard hours for 2 years trying to take down an oligarch like Trump, as "lavish". As if he's some sort of dictator who is living it up on the dole of the public???? It's HIS MONEY and he EARNED it. The man has his own fucking law firm and probably rakes in HUNDREDS of thousands of year it not over a million individually from his bids. He didn't need that particular job to go on a "lavish" vacation. Which brings me to my second point......... 2. How in the hell can they sit up there and PIN POINT the money he spent on a vacation as coming DIRECTLY from a particular assignment he performed??? I'm almost sure he used credit cards to pay for his trips. I'm almost sure he didn't cash a check he got from the city of Atlanta or state of Georgia at the liquor store, stuff THAT money in his pocket, and then used THAT CASH to scoop up Fani and fly off to the Bahamas. So how in the hell can they say it was THAT money he used???? 🤔 Imagine this....... You work a job at Cosco. Been working there for years and get your pay deposited in your account every week. You: Pay the mortgage. Buy food. Pay your phone and other bills. Pay the car note. ...and go to a strip club a couple times a month. And they claim you used "Costco money" to go to a strip club and exploit naked women! And that gives Costco the right to fire you. COME ON MAN.

Georgia DA Fani Willis Smear Tactic
I find this story VERY interesting, for multiple reasons. So, let's look at the CNN article in the link you provided.............. Fulton County, GACNN — When Nathan Wade was appointed lead prosecutor in the Georgia election interference case in 2021 to prosecute former President Donald Trump, some of his closest allies, lawyers in Cobb County where Wade practiced law, universally wondered, “Why him?” Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis had the largest staff of any judicial circuit in Georgia, including salaried lawyers with more experience as felony prosecutors. Wade had once been a prosecutor briefly, but mostly handled misdemeanors and never such a high-profile case. More than two years later, questions are surfacing about Wade’s role. One of Trump’s co-defendants facing criminal charges over efforts to overturn the 2020 election has alleged in court papers that Wade is romantically involved with Willis and used money he billed the district attorney’s office for his work on the case to take her on lavish vacations. While the filing didn’t include direct evidence of their romantic involvement, Willis was served this week with a subpoena to appear at a deposition in Wade’s divorce proceedings. Pallavi Bailey, a spokesperson for Willis, told CNN that the office will respond to the allegations “through appropriate court filings.” Wade has not responded to CNN’s requests for comment and was smiling as he walked into a scheduled Friday afternoon motions hearing regarding multiple matters related to the case. The situation has created a political firestorm for Willis, with Trump and his co-defendant arguing Wade, Willis and the entire district attorney’s office should be taken off the case. The allegations, if true, may not derail the prosecution, but multiple lawyers tell CNN that the appearance of a conflict of interest could hurt Willis’ chances of securing a conviction before a jury. The judge overseeing the case said on Friday that he planned to hold a hearing on the allegations in early February. Former DeKalb County District Attorney Robert James does not question Wade’s qualifications but does have concerns with Willis’ decision to bring him onto the case – if the allegations of an improper relationship hold up. “If I had a personal relationship, I probably would have not done it,” James said in an interview with CNN, “not because there’s anything inappropriate about it, only because people will take it, twist it and make it look like there’s something inappropriate going on.” “It’s, just politically, is not something that I think is wise,” James said. Michael Moore, a former US Attorney in Georgia and a CNN legal analyst, said Willis should consider stepping away from the case given its high-profile nature. “I’d tell her to get out of the case. I really think in this type of case with these allegations, this case is bigger than any one prosecutor,” Moore told CNN. “And I think probably to preserve the case to show what’s most important to her is the facts of the Trump case as opposed to her political career if you will at this moment.” On Friday, the Republican chair of the House Judiciary Committee, Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan, sent a letter requesting that Wade turn over documents and communications pertaining to the Georgia investigation into Trump’s effort to overturn the 2020 election. Republicans on the Judiciary Committee have long sought to undermine the credibility of Willis’ case. Her office has rebuffed previous demands from Jordan’s asking for documents. An undisclosed contact with White House The allegations against Willis and Wade came in a 127-page court filing this week from Michael Roman, a former Trump 2020 campaign official who was indicted over his role in the fake electors plot in Georgia. Trump’s team is actively considering whether to join Roman’s motion, a move that would represent a formal endorsement of its allegations about both Wade and Willis, according to two sources familiar with the matter. But there is no sign Trump is in a rush – he can amplify these allegations publicly with little legal risk while waiting to see how the DA’s team responds, the sources said. A Cobb County court has a hearing scheduled January 31 to address Roman’s motion to unseal documents in Wade’s divorce case. Trump and his political allies are also seizing on entries in Wade’s expense reports that show previously undisclosed contact between Fulton County prosecutors and the Biden White House, claiming they are proof of a coordinated conspiracy to tank the former president’s reelection bid. The expense reports were included as exhibits in Roman’s filing, showing a phone call with the White House counsel’s office in May 2022 and an “interview with DC/White House” in November 2022. White House visitor logs from November 2022 show they do not contain any entries for Nathan Wade, according to a CNN review of those records. Sources familiar with the matter tell CNN the contacts were routine, as Willis was gathering evidence and witnesses to testify before a special grand jury as part of her investigation at that time. One source said the discussions with the White House counsel’s office were about the process for contacting former Trump White House officials. ‘That’s ridiculous’ One line item stood out to multiple lawyers who reviewed Wade’s billing document included in the motion filed by Roman: On November 5, 2021, Wade billed the Fulton County DA for 24 hours in a day at $250 per hour. “That’s ridiculous,” Fulton County criminal defense attorney Suri Chada Jimenez told CNN. “He could have billed 12 hours at $500 and that’s more credible and along with the rate of other lawyers.” CNN has not been able to confirm what Wade did that day, but it was almost half a year before the special purpose grand jury was empaneled with investigative powers to spearhead exploring whether crimes were committed in Georgia by Trump and his associates. Over the past two years, Wade has earned more than $650,000 for his work on the case, according to Roman’s filing which includes invoices from Wade’s firm. The filing alleges that Wade made more than other prosecutors in the DA’s office. “Prosecutors must be held to the highest standard because unlike us poor defense lawyers they get to take away people’s liberty,” criminal defense attorney Scott Grubman told CNN. Grubman faced off against Wade as the former defense attorney for one-time Trump co-defendant Ken Chesebro, who struck a plea deal with Willis’ team last year. Others who know Wade and spoke to CNN on conditions of anonymity now worry the allegations could taint Fulton prosecutors’ case against Trump. “Now, you’ve made it that much harder at having a chance at securing any sort of conviction,” a lawyer who knows Wade personally told CNN. “It’s disappointing.” Previous missteps This is not the first criticism of missteps against Willis and Wade to surface in the high-profile case. In 2022, Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney, the judge who oversaw the initial investigation by Fulton prosecutors which lead to the historic state charges, disqualified Willis from pursuing charges against Georgia state Sen. Burt Jones, who also served as a pro-Trump fake elector. The judge’s decision came after Willis held a fundraiser for Jones’ Democratic political opponent and later informed the state Senator, he was a target of her probe. In a court hearing on the issue, McBurney criticized Willis for hosting the fundraiser for a Democratic candidate running against one of the investigation’s potential targets. “It’s a ‘What are you thinking?’ moment,” McBurney said. “The optics are horrific.” And last year, multiple defendants in the election subversion case complained after they received an advertisement brochure mailer at their homes from Wade & Campbell, Nathan Wade’s Atlanta-based defense firm. Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee, who oversees the Fulton case, rejected requests from several defendants in the Georgia election subversion case to have a hearing about the brochure to try to force some type of punishment. McAfee said the incident was “embarrassing” for prosecutors, but did not find proof it was intentional. “While presumably embarrassing on the part of Special Prosecutor Wade and his firm, this case should not be sidetracked by matters which facially lack merit,” McAfee wrote in his September 2023 order. Who is Nathan Wade Wade’s biography on the website of his Atlanta law firm Wade & Campbell describes him as a “former prosecutor and trial attorney” who is a “skilled negotiator who knows when to take a case to trial.” He was appointed to oversee the 2020 election subversion investigation by Willis in late 2021, as their special purpose grand jury investigation was ramping up. Wade & Campbell’s website says the partnership focuses on personal injury, contract litigation law, family and domestic law, and criminal defense. And says that Wade serves as Associate Municipal Court Judge and Pro Has State Court Judge in Cobb County. Manny Arora, a defense attorney who also worked with Grubman representing Chesebro before he negotiated a plea deal, told CNN he is more concerned by Wade’s “utter lack of experience” more so than the alleged affair and potential payments being made. “The bigger concern (than the alleged affair and financial payments) is hiring an attorney to handle the biggest RICO case, possibly in the history of US jurisprudence, when that counsel has never handled a RICO case before,” Arora told CNN. John Floyd, a lawyer with deep expertise in racketeering cases, joined Willis’ team in 2021 to focus on the Trump case as well as others, including Willis’ gang indictment against the rapper Young Thug.

2/3 of Americans Have Not Read a Novel in Past 12 Months
Ofcourse, mine too. As you could probably tell....I used to be heavy into religion and scriptures. Not just reading it but believing in it and I was like that for many many years. I can remember sitting on the stool and reading Bible verses and religious books out loud to my older relatives at 6 or 7, showing off my reading skills and how devout I was...lol. As I got older and pulled away from religion I started focusing more on history and political books. Now much of my reading is done online, but I still love the feel of a book in my hand.

If You Want To Know Who Jeromex's Reverend Is......
ProfD You know that WOULD be a pretty good idea for entertainment purposes....lol. To be honest with you, I think Jesse Lee be clowning a lot with his coonishness. I don't think he believes half the shit he says but says it for the shock value. We wants to be relevant. Manning....on the other hand.... I think that clown REALLY DOES believe in the shit he says and sincerely believes he has the right approach to "saving" Black folks. I saw him in an interview with Lord Jamar the other week and he was talking about his more radical younger days. I could be wrong ofcourse, but I've seen enough videos from both to make that determination.
