Real News.

 

We have many news today. The 9th Circuit Appeals Court wants Trump to send troops in Portland. We all know that it is illegal for National Guard troops to occupy American cities without a Governor's approval. Yet, the No Kings rallies recently have been more than 7 million people who oppose the Trump agenda. The No Kings protests were inspirational, peaceful, and powerful. This march refuted the lies from House Representative Johnson who called it ant-American, etc. People want to extent the ACA tax credits. If that doesn't happen, then you have 5 million Americans who will lose healthcare, premiums rising, and 340,000 jobs possibly being gone. What we desire is very clear. We want a living wage, guaranteed health care for all, the right to join a union, the right to vote, the right to live free from gun violence, and other freedoms. The oligarchy has tons of financial luxuries and benefits by fiat, but the middle class, working class, the poor, and the homeless suffer because of economic oppression. That is truly a shame, and we are indignant about this nefarious reality. The Department of Homeland Security just spent over $170 million in taxpayer funds to buy Kristi Noem two luxury Gulfstream jets, but the Trump shutdown is threatening the paychecks and SNAP benefits of millions of Americans. This obscene contradiction represents a new Gilded Age.

The U.S. State Department revoked the visas of six people for criticizing Charlie Kirk's politics, which is against the freedom of speech. Trump and his team want to canonize a far-right bigot like Charlie Kirk, but we won't do it. We condemn his murder as murder is evil. No one should be murdered because of his or her political views. Yet, Charlie Kirk was not a profoundly honorable hero. He was a bigot who exploited culture war issues as a means to try to gain support among the youth. None of the nationals threatened violence or advocated harm. They expressed dissent with Kirk's political views. The State Department want more revocations. They or those in the Trump administration falsely equate dissent that they don't like as equivalent to anti-Americanism. Trump gave Kirk the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor, posthumously. We reject fascism and dictatorship.

I don't agree with Rand Paul of Kentucky on many issues. Yet, he is 100 percent right to oppose the Trump's murders of people in the Caribbean waters without due process of law. We don't know their names or even their occupations, but the Trump administration have murdered them under the guise of them being accused of being "drug smugglers." People have the right to ask questions about this abuse of power. Many MAGA people, who claim to be Evangelical Christians, lecture us on morality, but many of them are silent on Trump murdering human beings without a trial or due process of the law. This is done in international waters being a violation of international law and a war crime. I will not acquiesce to evil or bite my tongue when showing the truth to the people.  Trump has done a 7th deadly strike on a ship since September 2025. It is clear that Trump wants total regime change in Venezuela. Congress is not being shown about the Trump administration's justification for these overt war crimes. The hypocritical Trump administration claim to oppose global wars and international conflicts, but they support international conflicts.

The White House demolition plan is just a vanity project. This action is not sanctioned by Congress. Trump wants to create a ballroom dancing area. The White House ought to exist as the people's house with great historical significance. It has been part of our American culture for centuries. The demolition of the White House has been very vulgar, and this is done without historical experts and other people who know about the White House's architecture fully. This dramatic action may damage other parts of the White House consequently. The extremism and bigotry plus corruption in the White House is unprecedented in American history. Now, we have massive tariffs in American society, allowing the cost of living to increase. People have to pay more for many basic necessities because of the massive tariffs that he has enacted.

Once again, Stephen A. Smith, the notorious centrist, criticized Bakari Sellers for no reason. Smith believes in respectability politics when talking about Trump and just use more token "politically correct" words when outlining dissent about Trump. Yet, Smith is more concerned with words about Trump than Trump totally using anti-constitutional policies. He told Bakari Sellers, the son of a black civil rights activist Cleveland Sellers, to sit down, and Smith said that he is the main attraction, plus people talk to him. Smith is a narcissist. Sellers is such a nice guy that he responded to Smith by taking the high road. As a black man, I will never sit down in following the words of a centrist hypocrite like Stephen A. Smith. Here is my take. Stephen A. Smith picks and chooses whom he tries to act tough with. When Serena's husband criticized him to his face, Smith did nothing and smiled. When black people talk about revolutionary black politics or do something he doesn't agree with, Smith goes into a tangent. Telling a black man to sit down is disrespectful. This deceiver, Stephen A. Smith, omits that Sellers has put in the work in real life from South Carolina to all over the North. Smith's trying to mock a Southern black American accent shows his ignorance since the majority of black American ancestors came from the South. The South has produced some of the greatest revolutionaries in history, including Ella Baker, Medgar Evers, Fannie Lou Hamer, Robert F. Williams (who used self-defense against racist Klan members in Monroe, North Carolina in the 1960s), Rosa Parks, and other notable icons. Smith doesn't want to talk about real issues like National Guard troops in the streets of America illegally, the genocide in Gaza, the Trump administration's murder of people in the Caribbean without due process of law, voting suppression efforts, the act of Trump saying he hates his enemies (that Jasmine Crockett never said), and Trump going about to try to suppress public dissent of his evil policies. Smith does this because he is a corporate puppet, a centrist showman, and not about the life of real black liberation. It is as easy to decipher as that. ESPN pays him well to be in their house.
