Were you asleep under the entire Biden admin who profiled and arrested innocent people solely based on their desire for political power and intimidation? THIS admin is arresting actual criminals for criminal behavior. There’s the difference. Slotkin confirms the playbook.

The USA mid terms are a simple choice. Do you choose the United States of America? Or do you choose the tragic state of France or the UK. Choose America. Choose the place you are blessed to call home.

Oh David, DJT has funded scholarships for black students and black colleges for decades.
What has he done for black people other than trying to erase black history month, discrimination in the job market and trying to erase their history at the Smithsonian??

You can dislike Donald Trump. You can despise his personality, reject his politics, and criticize every word that comes out of his mouth. That is your prerogative. 🛑BUT YOU CANNOT ERASE WHAT HE HAS DONE FOR BLACK AMERICANS SIMPLY BECAUSE YOU HATE THE MAN!🛑 Let’s examine the historical record instead of recycling partisan talking points. In 2018, Donald Trump signed the bipartisan First Step Act, reforming federal sentencing laws, reducing certain mandatory penalties, and expanding opportunities for incarcerated individuals to earn earlier release. These reforms addressed sentencing disparities that disproportionately affected Black Americans. In 2019, Trump signed the FUTURE Act, securing $255 million in permanent annual federal funding for Historically Black Colleges and Universities and other minority-serving institutions. In 2020, he signed the HBCU PARTNERS Act, strengthening federal support and coordination for historically Black colleges. During his first administration, Black unemployment reached historically low levels before the pandemic. Black poverty fell to 16.3% in 2019, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. These improvements were part of longer economic trends, but they occurred during his presidency. Trump also signed legislation establishing Opportunity Zones, encouraging private investment in economically distressed communities. The extent to which those investments benefited existing residents remains a legitimate subject of debate. In April 2025, Trump established a new White House initiative supporting HBCU research, innovation, infrastructure, and workforce development. His administration also reported more than $1.3 billion in Department of Education support for HBCUs during fiscal year 2025. NOW HERE IS WHERE THE HYPOCRISY BECOMES PARTICULARLY DISQUIETING! When Donald Trump signs criminal justice reform that benefits Black Americans, you call him a racist. When he signs legislation securing permanent funding for Black colleges, you call him a racist. When Black unemployment reaches historic lows during his administration, you refuse to acknowledge the numbers. When he supports historically Black educational institutions, you dismiss the accomplishments because you despise the man responsible. And then you turn around and call the people who acknowledge these documented accomplishments “MAGGOTS”? LET ME MAKE SOMETHING PERFECTLY CLEAR! If recognizing criminal justice reform, educational investment, and measurable improvements in Black economic conditions makes somebody a “MAGGOT” in your eyes, then perhaps the problem is not the person examining the evidence. Perhaps the problem is your own selective indignation. And if your contempt for Donald Trump is so consuming that you cannot acknowledge a single policy benefiting Black Americans, then your claim to care about Black advancement deserves serious scrutiny. Because if these accomplishments are what you call “MAGGOT,” while dismissing the Black Americans who benefited from them, THEN YOUR OWN RACIAL PREJUDICES DESERVE EXAMINATION! Your political animosity does not invalidate federal legislation. Your insults do not overturn Census Bureau statistics. Your hatred does not erase appropriations to historically Black institutions. And your partisan allegiance does not give you exclusive authority to decide what constitutes progress for Black Americans. I am interested in outcomes, not political worship. I will examine Trump’s failures just as readily as his accomplishments, and I expect that same intellectual honesty from anyone criticizing him. BLACK AMERICANS ARE NOT PROPERTY OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY! We are capable of evaluating policies, examining evidence, and making independent judgments without asking political operatives for permission. If you want to challenge the record, bring documentation. If all you have are insults, you have brought nothing to the discussion. #AStoneGroove #SilentMajoritySpeaks
