I’m by no means a certified hip-hop head but I’ve long maintained that my top 3 rappers would be Yasiin Bey, Black Thought and Nas.

I think she's talking about the Royal Family..
I've met families where 3 generations have never worked… and a young man trying to break that cycle, only to find his family told him to stop working because his alarm clock was waking them up.
People are making a mockery of our welfare system. Bragging about their free Motability cars, flaunting their new keys on TikTok.
They think it's a victimless crime. It isn't.
18 million working households will each pay £50,000 in taxes for working-age welfare this Parliament.
Every pound claimed by someone exploiting the system comes from somebody else.
Someone who gets up, goes to work and pays their taxes and most likely will never afford a brand-new car.
This wasn’t the aim of our post-war welfare state.
It’s the sign of a deeply broken one.

Today marks 3 months since 97 Zimbabweans were killed after a dilapidated ferry operated by Mr Mnangagwa's office capsized in Kariba. No one took responsibility. Mnangagwa did not visit to console the families instead he flew to South Africa 2 times. But, when a fraudster died it took him just 48 hrs to visit. No national days of mourning were ever declared. The Mafusire commission has not yet called any witnesses. They were not just name but humans:

SENATOR-ELECT SCOTT COLOM: We all know that prayer is only a part of our Mississippi faith tradition. You need faith. And I'll tell you, throughout this campaign, there were many times where I had to have faith. There were times that I couldn't get donors to answer the phone. They did not believe a moment like this was possible, but I kept the faith….
There's so many people that have faith in Mississippi at times where it seemed impossible. People like Medgar Evers. I can't help but think about Medgar Evers on Veterans Day. A moment like this, where he served his country and came home to Mississippi when they wouldn't let him vote. But he had faith that Mississippi could make progress. He had faith that one day everybody would have the right to vote. He had faith that a day like this was possible

That these monstrous twisted evil fucking scumbag bastards are in a position to still tweet is a stain on all of us.

Haley Stevens’s betrayal hit Clyburn so hard he went full Malcolm X
Asked why he devoted so much time to Michigan, Jim Clyburn compared the hostility Abdul El-Sayed faced to the struggles of civil rights icon John Lewis, citing Lewis’ beating on the Edmund Pettus Bridge and El-Sayed becoming the first Muslim elected to the Senate.
“They’re going after a brown Muslim today,” he recalled telling one group. “They’re gonna be coming after a Black Muslim tomorrow.”

There’s a reason why MLK didn’t finish the journey. It wasn’t because he couldn’t book a flight.
59 years later, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s unfinished journey to Israel finally becomes a reality. ❤️🇮🇱🇺🇲
Today, 500 African American and African Christian leaders arrived in Israel as part of the "Unfinished Business" pilgrimage, an initiative created and led by the BCLCIR.
Their vision was to fulfill Dr. King’s dream of bringing African American pastors on a pilgrimage and solidarity trip to the Holy Land.
It was a journey MLK planned in 1967, but never got to make.
At a time when it proves most costly, these brave leaders came to see Israel for themselves, led by their faith, a deep commitment to the truth, and in service of Black - Jewish community building, a special tradition built by generations of solidarity.
As part of their trip, they also honored Israelis whose lives were forever changed by October 7 and by antisemitism, including Elkana Bohbot, who survived 738 days in Hamas captivity.
Welcome to Israel. We’re grateful to have you here. 🙏

I knew the results were very good, but somehow I was still unprepared for the reveal.

This is why Republicans lost every statewide office and the State House in Georgia. I’m trying to lower your bills and you guys are asking me where I’m going to pee.

Congratulations, Abdul El-Sayed.
You turned that inshallah into alhamdulillah.
I am overwhelmed with gratitude knowing that we will now have 8 Muslims serving in Congress.
They told us we couldn't speak up, couldn't challenge the status quo, and couldn't make it this far. But we did.
Alhamdulillah.
