This is awesome, Prosecutor Fani Willis laid waste to Jim Jordan's in a letter answering his attempt to hold hearings to stop her from prosecuting Trump: "Your public statements and your letter itself make clear that you lack any legitimate legislative purpose for that inquiry: your job description as a legislator does not include criminal law enforcement, nor does it include supervising a specific criminal trial,....

"They did not spend more money on alcohol or drugs, contrary to what people believe, and instead they spent the money on rent, food, housing, transit, furniture, a used car, clothes.

Another victory for voters. Florida judge strikes down DeSantis’ gerrymandered map - which illegally reduced black voters power.
If I wanted to actually support a group of people, I would start with the organization leading the efforts for change in that group. With that being said, here's how you can support people of color. Well, since you asked and all.🤗
My local NAACP chapter has nearly as many white members as people of color. Yep, white people can join too.
If your local chapter is NOT active, do something about it.

Russia continues to prevent Ukrainian grain from reaching those around the world who need it most. Putin simply does not care about global food security.
Just heard from a neighbor that a red-tailed hawk died on my street this week from a poisoned mouse. Our town was in the news over the past year for losing at least one bald eagle and a clutch of great horned owls to poison 😢 #DontUseRatPoison

The Maya civilization was a Mesoamerican civilization that can be traced back to around 1800 BC (probably earlier, although it would be several centuries before they built large cities) and it lasted until the end of the 17th century AD.
