Well of course this story has gotten weirder. 

First, sadly the death toll of this attack in New Orleans is now 15 people, with 30 injured.


But some things aren’t adding up, and then there are other things that have been added, so you know…I have questions.


Like on Wednesday, the media was reporting that the FBI claimed that a black foreign terrorist organization’s flag was found in the truck that Jabbar drove through the crowd. Yeste...

What Do The Chickens Bring Back With Them When They Come Home To Roost?
Don’t Look At New Orleans In A Vacuum 


The FBI is investigating the attack as an act of terrorism and said it does not believe the driver acted alone. An Islamic State group flag was found on the vehicle’s trailer hitch, the FBI said.


There is much to learn still from the early morning New Year’s Day vehicular attack on a crowded Bourbon Street in New Orleans thi...

Never let the corporations and US politicians truncate the history of Juneteenth, and the enduring legacy of bipartisan "compromise" on our human rights that yanked away the freedom we fought for.

We can absolutely defeat the anti-trans bigots who are mad that transgender people drink their crummy beer (there are better beers out there, trans friends, you're better than Bud Light), conservative organizations trying to put trans youth and people back in the closet in public schools, and liberals who are all too willing to compromise with the people who want to take away the human rights of people who are not like them!

Well, well, well the plot thickens!!! As MORE classified documents are found in Biden's possession, explain to me how this is different from what Trump did in any way except volume?

I smell Democratic hypocrisy...

The discovery of classified White House documents in Joe Biden's civilian post-administration office could cause a stink for him, especially if those documents contain evidence of US imperialistic plans for regime change in Iran, Ukraine, and collusion with the UK to persecute Julian Assange.

There is definitely something there here...

The saga of the empty Speaker's chair is over for the GOP-controlled House of Representatives. But lessons abound for the so-called Progressive Caucus, the Congressional Black Caucus, and every alleged "progressive" in the Democratic Party.

The GOP just showed up Progressives on what should be done with power once you have it, if Progressives really wanted to win anything for the people. But of course, they won't listen and learn be...

Until the United States does right by Indigenous Peoples, nothing good will come to it. And the continued resistance of those Original People will never allow the legacy of atrocities like Wounded Knee to be buried and forgotten.

Everyone is appalled at Russia allegedly invading Ukraine without provocation...except the US and NATO did plenty of provoking, and they armed and legitimized neo-nazis to do it. And the eight-year civil war that resulted is completely ignored by US media.

Yes, Mary J. Blige did the damn thang. But maybe this SuperBowl needs to be the last time Black artists do any damned thang with the NFL.

Yeah none of them is worth cheering for and nobody got deplatformed and why does the left defent assholes so much damn.

On the anniversary of Patrice Lumumba's assassination, let us not forget that the great Pan-African leaders who were killed or deposed by western forces have also tried to erase the connection between Martin Luther King, Jr. and these great men and their movements. Never forget that they are all connected in a single garment of struggle and destiny.

Kamala Harris told y'all to put some Robitussin on that COVD, but to use Google to find it.

For all of Biden's tough talk about fighting the fascists who rioted in the US Capitol last year, the glaring contradictions about the neoliberal, anti-progressive, imperialist policies the US is infamous for should not be ignored.

Elizabeth Holmes and Theranos WERE dangerous, and nobody can tell me she isn't evil. But she's doe-eyed, blonde and attractive, so...

In declaring that there is no federal solution to the spread of the omicron variant and the persistence of COVID-19, Biden basically kicked the can to the states and told the country to put some Robitussin on that omicron, 'cuz he's got nothing for you.

In remembering the atrocoties committed against Africans enslaved in this land and the Native peoples the land was stolen from, we have to focus on the victories in that shared struggle against white supremacist settler colonialism in this country that were won. Because it was those victories from that shared struggle that led to more brutal repression - true - but that also informs us how we can defeat this system today. We just ...

First, the nativity scene Christians idolize is incorrect on several points. Second, Christian supremacy is based in white supremacy, settler colonialism and the love of capitalism and oppression. Last, I think the answer to this is horrifying Christmas monsters!! Or maybe just fight for each other, instead of fighting over whose belief is right.

The depth of the nepotism and corruption between Jose Manchin, his family, and Joe Biden is appalling. And that's why it needs to be aired out.
