The theater has begun in the Senate, enjoy the show until August when they fold like a cheap suit.


WASHINGTON − Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wisconsin, slammed a sweeping bill backed by President Donald Trump that poses major consequences for taxes, Medicaid, food stamps and more – and warned there are enough GOP senators ready to block it.

The bill passed in the House by just one vote on May 22. Now, several Republican senators are sounding the alarm over the legislation's price tag. It's expected to add around $3.3 trillion to the nation's deficit over the next 10 years and swell the federal government's debt.

Johnson predicted in an interview on CNN's "State of the Union" that the number of Senate dissenters may be enough to tank the proposal.

I don't know if they will because at the end of the day unless you are term limited-you got to go back to your district and try to get reelected.

And some are NOT in safe red areas. Like those 5 black Maga in the House-while Donalds it out of it due to limits and getting ready to lose to Desantis's wife SOUNDLY. The 2 in Michigan and Illinois are NOT safe.

There is no Kamala Harris running for the racist Democrats to sit at home this time. So they have to get out and vote this time.

Razor bumps can now get you kicked out of the marines. Black men will likely suffer the most​

Razor bumps can now get you kicked out of the marines. Black men will likely suffer the most

A US Marine Corps guidance released in March states that people who suffer from skin conditions like PFB may be discharged; critics argue the policy is ‘racist.’
www.aol.com www.aol.com

The US Marine Corps is eliminating waivers that previously allowed service members who suffer from razor bumps to forgo shaving — an action critics say disproportionately affects Black men.

The US military requires all male service members to be clean-shaven. However, the military introduced shaving wavers in the 1970s to address genetic skin conditions like pseudofolliculitis barbae, better known as razor bumps or ingrown hairs.

Now, thanks to guidance issued in March, men with a PFB or ingrown hair diagnosis could be expelled from the Marines if the issue continues.

Aimed at enhancing Marines' "warfighting capability," the guidance states that service members with PFB must undergo a medical evaluation within 90 days.

If their condition doesn't improve within a year following a four-step treatment plan, Marines with PFB may be discharged with an honorable discharge for "incompatibility with service" at their commanding officer's discretion, Jacoby Getty, a spokesperson for the Corps' Manpower and Reserve Affairs, told Military.com in March.

Trump’s FEMA denies North Carolina’s request for Hurricane Helene aid

Despite Trump’s promises to help victims of Hurricane Helene, the North Carolina governor received a letter from FEMA denying the state’s request for full funding to aid the ongoing recovery efforts.

I have been through the southern Appalachians, and this includes Western North Carolina, a very red area politically. (Although I think that Asheville is purple or blue.) Sure, anyplace will suffer when a tropical system hits, but a tropical system going over the Appalachians can be quite awful.

They won't. Roland Martin and others have talked about that months ago when it first was mentioned.

It will be sooner than later.

Because while he is so focused on destroying POC-he needs to worry about the folks AROUND him. Because as we learned with Julius Caesar...

The ones who get you are the ones closest to you. He will regret letting those Jan 6ers go. I would not trust those billionaires either.

With this administration it definitely has something to do with who is being helped. That suspension will be indefinite under this administration.

From Job Corps website:

Each year 45,000 high school dropouts, homeless young adults, young mothers and fathers, students with learning disabilities, and youth aging out of the foster care system enroll in Job Corps because it provides these youth with everything they need to start a successful career and become fi nancially independent.​

It says may which is not shall so that is good, but if any are discharged they will receive an honorable discharge which is very important to access VA benefits and job preference in some sectors. Hopefully, those that are career marines can get the care needed and reach their retirement date.

This current administration is loaded with hardcore racist. They will try every scheme imaginable to turn the clock backwards.

After Trump pardon, ex-boxer Charles Duke Tanner uses his second chance for criminal justice reform​


1748815529466.png

“They gave me my whole life back,” Tanner told theGrio after President Trump’s pardon czar Alice Johnson told him the life-altering news.

When former professional boxer Charles Duke Tanner learned that President Donald Trump had issued him a pardon on May 28, he was completely shocked.

“Like in the boxing world, it was a punch that I didn’t see, and you know, those are the ones that knock you out,” Tanner told theGrio days after the life-altering clemency.

Tanner was convicted and sentenced to life in 2004 for a first-time drug offense. He’d been part of a drug trafficking ring and was caught by police after accepting 15 kilograms of fake cocaine that was part of a drug string. Despite having a perfect boxing record and great athletic promise, Tanner says his choices were made from a place of financial hardship after he’d gotten laid off from a boxing injury. That harsh life sentence he received reflected a larger imbalance in the War on Drugs, which frequently gave out extreme sentences to Black people in the drug game.
