The breaking news is that former Vice President Mike Pence has testified to the January 6th probe from the Department of Justice. This is huge, because Mike Pence has knowledge about Trump's actions that 90 percent of the public doesn't know about. Trump has disrespected Mike Pence, because Pence refused to invalidate the 2020 election. Pence went out to confirm that Joseph Biden was rightfully elected as President of the United States after the seditious, treasonous January 6th insurrection. Pence was involved in meetings with Trump that will be useful in his testimony. Former Vice President Mike Pence fulfilled his subpoena because he had no choice. Pence will probably answer the questions honestly as Pence is not being charged with any wrongdoing. Also, Pence and Trump have broken their friendship relationship over the January 6th events. Pence was threatened by the insurrectionist terrorists who wanted to hang him. Pence was escorted out of the U.S. Capitol by Secret Service agents.
Some breaking news is that the College Board is to change its AP African American Studies course. This comes after DeSantis wants AP African American studies to sugarcoat black history. The College Board wants to reveal changes to AP African American studies over the next months. The truth is that conservatives are wrong to think that we must show certain history and omit other parts of the American story. To be truly, you have to show all facets of American history. African American history is part of American history from Malcolm X to Ella Baker. We want a functional democracy that gives voice to all voices and does not limit what type of history we must listen to. The College Board's revision again shows our pressure from the black community is potent. We want information on intersectionality, reparations, unsung black heroes, and other issues. On May 3, 2023, many protesters want progressive access to AP African American Studies.
Recently, Carolyn Bryant died at the age of 88 years old. She was the woman who falsely accused Emmitt Till of being a vicious sexual harasser. Her words contributed to the death of Emmitt Till. Till was murdered in such a graphic fashion that I can't mention all that the racist mob did to him. Till's mother wanted the public to show his face in public to allow human beings to see what racists did to Till. This tragedy inspired the development of the Modern Day Civil Rights Movement. Bryant not only was a liar. She was a coward who tried to escape justice. To this day, Emmitt Till's family hasn't received justice. Ted Cruz has been caught on tape trying to set up a program to attempt to steal the 2020 election. Ted Cruz is a U.S. Senator from Texas who is one of the most extreme members of Congress. As late as January 2, 2021, he said that he wants a commission to try to find out who won the election (but Trump lost the election). In the past, Cruz criticized Trump for disrespecting his wife and claiming that his father had involvement in the JFK assassination. Today, Cruz is one of Trump's fiercest supporters. Some shocking news is that former rapper Pras was found guilty of a political conspiracy. Pras was accused of funneling money from a future Malaysian financier via straw donors to places. Pras recently admitted that he was an FBI informant. That's shocking, but it is no secret that government agents have infiltrated the sports and entertainment world. Books have proven how the CIA consults movie directors all of the time in developing films. So, Pras is a huge disappointment.
Some breaking news is that Jerry Springer passed away, and he was 79 years old. As one of the most provocative, controversial talk show hosts in history, Jerry Springer was very influential in the culture of the 1990's. He was the liberal version of the Morton Downey show (Downey was a 1980's talk show who pioneered controversial TV talk shows back in the day). Jerry Springer at first was not very controversial. It changed by the mid to late 1990's hosting every subject under the sun from adultery to other unique displays of human expression. Jerry Springer was a political man being the former mayor of Cincinnati. His relatives were victims of the Holocaust, so he knows firsthand about oppression. Jerry Springer admitted that his talk show shouldn't be taken seriously. In retrospect, Jerry Springer admitted some of the negative unintended consequences of some of his episodes too. He had a judge show too. As an older Millennial, I remember his show from the 1990's. Many people in our generation came home from middle school and high school to watch his show. A lot of people don't know that he has a law degree, he was an attorney, and he loved his child. Therefore, Jerry Springer's legacy is that he showed the world the complicated, diverse activities of the human race, and whether we agree or disagree on issues; we have to take care and take care of each other.
I send condolences to Jerry Springer's family and friends.
