Racial justice advocates descended on Capitol Hill to slam the Trump administration’s policies that they say are an “attack on the Black economy,” as Black Americans see rising unemployment and disproportionate impacts of America’s affordability crisis. “The state of the Black economy is under attack,” said U.S. Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.), who hosted a press conference on Wednesday with coalition groups, including the NAACP, Color of Change, the National Urban League, and The Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies. “We are plagued by an economic crisis that is a direct result of Trump’s reckless financial policies that are...

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Sen. Patty Murray said she broke her ankle earlier this week after tripping while running down the stairs, but said she planned to return to the Capitol next week for votes and hearings. (snip) "Earlier this week, while running down the stairs in a rush, I tripped and ended up breaking my ankle—I wouldn’t recommend it. Next week, I’ll be back at the Capitol for votes and hearings and doing everything else I can to be a voice for Washington state in the Senate—I’ll just be swapping one of my tennis shoes for an ankle brace for...

With so-called Pride festivities set to kick off in three days, the LGBTQ3.14… community in Boston has been confronted with a turd in their punchbowl, in the form of an outbreak of the monkeypox virus. Monkeypox (or mpox, as racist people who can't help themselves from associating monkeys with certain minorities call it) causes symptoms that include "a skin rash or mucosal lesions which can last 2–4 weeks accompanied by fever, headache, muscle aches, back pain, low energy and swollen lymph nodes," the World Health Organization informs us. WHO warns that monkeypox can spread: ...from person to person mainly through...

A British evangelical Christian man who sued the U.K. government for “religious discrimination” after his government employer refused to accommodate his discomfort of LGBTQ+ symbols had his lawsuit dismissed by a tribunal, according to a Daily Mail article published yesterday. Mark Jennings accepted a job with U.K. Department for Work and Pensions in June 2024, but reportedly began making “unreasonable demands” soon afterwards. He requested that he be allowed to work from home during Pride month because of his “phobia” of Pride symbols. He said he didn’t want to hear his work colleagues “using different pronouns” because he believed “gender...

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A driver’s cell phone was out and recording when a fight broke out in the middle of a busy Fox Meadows intersection early Saturday night.

There's really no "Body of Thread" here except "Black Albino" wrote "This song deserves to be played in the World cup. In fact, it should be the anthem." Have to agree with that. This skit is absolutely bound to put a smile on your face and love in your heart. The singer / dancer is so energetic, fun, and personable!! It reminds me of the old Coca Cola 1971 jingle "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing (In Perfect Harmony)" On InstagramTikTok "My Name is Akramghettokidz Dancer From Ghetto Kids 🇺🇬❤️" God bless everyone 🙏

These cadets, the cadets from the Naval, Air Force, and Coast Guard academies, should provide us hope for the future of the United States.

Brad & Lex trying to figure out WHEN this song is relevant to.. Brad is good to get a general idea, while Lex actually looks it up. (I was 1 year off, btw..)....

Brad & Lex back for another reaction video.. This time with Pink Floyd. AND, I believe with Lex's mother along for the ride. Lex gets emotional this time. Brad, as usual, is thinking things through, while Lex lets the feelings get to her.

We let AI run a simulation to see what the first female—that means woman— president in the White House would be like. The simulated results are interesting and eye-opening.

@mtgreenee We just said goodbye to our good friends Thomas and Carolyn Massie. The civil war in the Republican Party is successfully gutting the true America Firsters, like myself, Thomas and others. But I don’t think most Americans realize the extent of what’s happening, how bad it is, and what it’s going to produce. After taking the hard principled stand against war with Iran in June 2025 and releasing the Epstein files, the neocon controlled Republican establishment now backed by the President set out to destroy us. Thomas and I took two different routes but ended up in the same...

Robert Jenrick has confirmed Reform UK would ban the carrying of ceremonial blades like the Sikh Kirpan, which was held alongside another knife by murderer Vickrum Digwa. Speaking to GB News, the Reform economics spokesman said his party would end the existing legal protections that allow blades to be carried as part of a cultural practice. Mr Jenrick was questioned on the issue after Digwa, 23, was found guilty at Southampton Crown Court of murdering university student Henry Nowak. The 23-year-old was holding a 'Kirpan', a religious knife carried by initiated Sikhs as a mandatory article of faith. GB News...

A Michigan grandpa was killed by the kidney donation he thought would save his life — because the organ donor was infected with rabies from a skunk in a medical nightmare that could affect other organ recipients, according to health officials. Barney Kurowicki, of Tecumseh, Michigan, had been on dialysis for two years when he received a kidney transplant from James Martin, a 59-year-old Idaho father of three, in December 2024, Scripps News reported this week. Martin had died the previous year of what his family believed was heart problems, said his widow Kim Martin told the outlet. “We had...

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — A rocket belonging to Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin exploded during a test at the launch pad Thursday night, shaking nearby homes and briefly painting the sky orange. Blue Origin said its New Glenn rocket exploded during an engine-firing test being conducted ahead of a satellite launch planned for next week. No one was hurt, according to officials at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. “It’s too early to know the root cause but we’re already working to find it,” Bezos said via X. “Very rough day, but we’ll rebuild whatever needs rebuilding and get back to...
