    I'd rather see every building in America burned to the ground than to watch another black man be murdered by cops.

    Also worth noting, that with record quit rates in low paying industries, for the first time in half a century workers in low-paying jobs feel they have the freedom to quit and look for jobs with better pay and conditions.

    Hate to break it to the losers pumping "Web3.0" -- but we're already on like version 6.5, and we stopped numbering them that way, opting for an agile process that subverts semantic versioning in favor of colors. We're currently in Purple Web.

    I’m proud to announce that over $231 million is coming to California to rebuild and recover after this year’s fires. This will help our state become more resilient, support immediate disaster relief, and aid in the long-term recovery of fire scarred regions.

    Today, we're delivering more than $2 billion in CDBG-Disaster Recovery and Mitigation funds to 10 states, covering 15 major 2020 disasters. These funds are vested in building resilience to natural disasters, especially in historically marginalized communities. Learn more:

    This is the only political story: The things virtually everybody wants can't happen. It strikes at the heart of any claim that we have a functional democracy. Everything else in politics is meant to distract from this. And everyone in the media who participates is complicit.

    Teach the lesson that the Democratic Party doesn't "lose" -- the people funding and running it are the same in both parties. They act to make sure the people who would overthrow them don't even see the monarchy to behead.

    Why Democrats Lose (cont.) For too long, I subscribed to the common myth that Democrats lose because they "bring a knife to a gunfight," i.e. that they are well-meaning but ineffectual in the face of the fascist GOP. But the facts say otherwise...

    Why Democrats Lose (cont.) Just look at the ludicrous Build Bigger Billionaires "negotiations." Despite Dem control of two branches, the bill keeps shrinking and shrinking. From $10T to $1.75T. "It's Manchin!" they yell. "It's Sinema!" "It's the Parliamentarian!" Please.

    It's official: The Capitol "swing space" has a name, or at least a visible number.

    Sikhs were targeted across India. Murdered in state sponsored genocide and terror which continued long after November 1984. Justice still has not been served. Sikhs still face state oppression. We continue to remember and fight back.

    No minimum wage increase, no drug price controls, no electoral reform, no paid leave, no packing SCOTUS, no Medicare dental, no meaningful debt cancelation, no penalties for polluters, no shutting down ICE detention camps, no end to US involvement in Yemen. Waste of power/time.

    Everyone knows and understands that Joe Manchin is taking bribes, but no one is kicking him out of the Senate or his party, and no one is arresting him for it. Why is that?

    FUN FACT: West Virginia is home to zero billionaires.

    Sen. Joe Manchin is telling colleagues he has deep concerns about a proposed “billionaire tax," revealing a tough truth for the White House and congressional leaders: A tax solution designed to satisfy Sen. Kyrsten Sinema may not fly with Manchin.

    "[L]aw schools must create positive experiences for Black women by reevaluating the academic norms and hierarchies that oppress them, incorporating CRT and whiteness theories across the curriculum, and genuinely focusing on diversity and inclusion."

    The story of [B]lack women law professors...has yet to be told.–Emma Coleman Jordan (1990). It's 2021. We've been telling for more than thirty years. It's time to listen and act. Reviving this to share that my article will soon be available on :

    The Senate can’t be reformed. It’s irredeemable. States aren’t drawn around ethnic or language groups. They’re accidents of history, admitted to the Union whenever it benefited the party in power. It’s time to abolish this house of lords and finally become a democracy.
