You need diverse people to have innovation, invention, research, and true development. Harvard wants to keep foreign students to have a true growth of our economy. Yet, the Trump administration wants to cancel federal contracts with Harvard for xenophobic purposes. The MAGA cult hates the Golden Rule, because the Golden Rule teaches to treat your neighbor as yourself, regardless of nationality or race. Far too often, MAGA cultists forget that the original Americans were not blond-haired, blue-eyed Europeans. The original Americans didn't speak English. The first Americans were Native Americans. Therefore, we have to be involved in this struggle for human liberation. This is a consequential moment in our history. Harvard is fighting back, because the Trump attacks on them violate the First Amendment. We have the free speech right to dissent with the extremism from the tyrant Donald Trump.

We reject the agenda of austerity or immiseration. Yet, the Trump administration has used policies that allowed the U.S credit rating to be downgraded. These MAGA cultists can't blame this on Biden (like many of them always do even some in the corporate media who want to coddle Trump and Trump supporters. Some in the corporate media refuse to hold Trump accountable to this day for his illegal actions and unhinged rants). We have a situation of massive economic inequality. 60% of American households can't afford a minimal quality of life. The richest 19 households saw their wealth increase by $1 trillion in 2024, the biggest one-year increase ever. So, this has nothing to do with a lack of resources, as the super wealthy have tons of resources. It has to do with a system of oppression and inequality that harmed tons of people worldwide, not just in America. The Republicans have no monopoly on patriotism either. Many Republicans support the January 6th terrorists who wanted to overthrow the government, waved Neo-Nazi and Confederate flags, and wanted to hang former Vice President Mike Pence. Patriotism is about loving freedom, dissenting with governmental policy, embracing health care for all, embracing freedom of speech, respecting the freedom of the press, and embracing equality and justice for all. The MAGA movement is antithetical to those precepts.

 On this day, we remember the soldiers who passed away while serving in the United States Armed Forces. Military culture is paramount in American society. Many military men and women helped to save lives during tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, and other natural disasters that impacted tons of human beings. Back during the American Civil War, thousands of Americans lost their lives for maintaining the Union and making sure that bondage against black people via slavery was permanently extinguished. Many military soldiers lost their lives during World War II in ensuring that the racist, anti-Semitic ideology of Nazism and fascism in general was refuted and defeated decades ago. Since World War II, tons of soldiers have died on the battlefield, sacrificing their lives heroically for our freedom that many of us take for granted. This Memorial Day holiday has existed since May 30, 1868, on a national scale in the United States of America. Courage is required in our generation. We have the responsibility to stand up for our rights and our cherished liberties and to inspire the babies (in Generation Z, Generation Alpha, etc.) to do the same. We are all in this together as human beings, and our inextricable or intrepid duty to adhere to justice for all is immemorial, along with being everlasting.

The Diddy Trial continues. Cassie has made her testimony clear that she accuses Diddy of physical, emotional, and sexual abuse. Kid Cudi accused Diddy of threatening him and blowing up his car. Dawn Richards testified under oath that Diddy used emotional abuse, and she saw Diddy physically abuse Cassie. Now, we have the testimony of former Diddy assistant Capricon Clark. Capricorn worked for Diddy and Cassie Ventura. She was from the West Coast and worked with both Death Row and Bad Boy Entertainment. She has massive credibility because she was with Diddy at his peak of his success from the morning to night. She testified under oath that Diddy threatened her. She said that she was kidnapped by Diddy and his allies to take a lie detector test. She said that she worked excessively causing stress induced alopecia. She said that she witnessed Diddy use illegal drugs. She collaborated on Kid Cudi's story about Diddy threatening to harm Kid Cudi because he once dated Cassie. Clark said that she witnessed Diddy kick Cassie. This testimony shows Diddy to be a coward, a degenerate, and validates what Tupac has said about Diddy all along. More people have testified. Combs faces charges of sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and transportation to engage in prostitution. The federal government accused Diddy between 2004 and 2024 of having a criminal enterprise to use his business empire, where he engaged in sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction. Diddy has denied all charges, but his wickedness has no justification.

Some breaking, sad news is that former Senator Representative Charlie Rangel has passed away at 94 years old. For over five decades, he has fought the good fight for our community and all people. He represented Harlem in Congress, and Harlem is one major cultural mecca of our black community. He was a champion in the Congressional Black Caucus. He retired from Congress in 2017, but he was thoroughly invested in the betterment of the human race. That is why he created the Charles B. Rangel Infrastructure Workforce Initiative to boost infrastructure jobs in areas of Manhattan and the Bronx that he called home. He was in Congress since 1970, serving 23 terms. He co-founded the Congressional Black Caucus and was the first black chairman of the influential Ways and Means Committee. He was a veteran of the Korean War.
