When we say representation matters what we are NOT saying is that we want representation without skillfulness.
Alsobrooks is principled, *experienced, and committed.
So vote for a fighter to represent YOU.

When JHud was on American Idol, Simon Cowell said she was out of her depth and others were far better than her.
Years later he’s a guest on *her* talk show, admitting how fabulously the now EGOT winner proved him wrong.
Keep. Moving. Forward. 🤎

Whenever TCP cast tried to hang out Fantasia lied saying she had to feed her dog, lol!
So Taraji pranked her by inviting her to a fake charity event, and asked her to sing happy bday to a big donor… but it was just a room full of dogs.
Fantasia’s reaction is HILARIOUS!
‘member when she walked from the limo to the stage and sung The Best like it was nobody’s business?
Tina Turner was inducted into the Hall of Fame last night. She IS rock n roll! 🔥
One day I’ll share my full knowledge of admissions processes of large private institutions. But today is not that day.
Until then just know that none of this shit ever actually happened.
Y’all Joe Biden looked at Marjorie Taylor Greene like he expected her to pass out cotton candy and balloon animals! 🤣
I AM FUCKING SCREAMING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This reminds me of the time I saw John Legend perform in a small venue right after Ordinary People was released. Long time ago.
He’d just completed this bad ass run/adlib and this Black dude shouted “SING N*!” soooooooooo loud.
All John could do was laugh.
Nah, somebody has to explain to me how Andrea Mitchell can question Biden’s fitness based on age when she’s only 4 years younger and LITERALLY FELL ASLEEP ON HER JOB!!!!
“Owens has no legitimate education, experience or expertise in politics, media, sociology or public policy. She is just a person who says things.”

Black people have already reclaimed DEI.
This is why I love us and this is why they hate us.
Cause all jokes aside, resilience is our inheritance. Stay pressed, bigots. 😌
Ok this was profound and credit where it’s due.
Trevor Noah closed by challenging the press to ask themselves one very important question every single day.
PLEASE WATCH:
Man. This dude is in a bunker right now. How the hell is any of this real life.
Are we sure the world didn’t end in Nov 2016 and we’re all just ghosts?
A bunker. In a friggin BUNKER because you can’t handle the civil war you wanted AND incited.

Man, Jasmine saying “Biden is only guilty of loving his son unconditionally and I hope my parents love me half as much” made me call my mama to double check.
I. Want. To. Thank.
Senator Cory Booker.
For allowing Judge Jackson to cry.
For making *me* cry.
For affirming Black women and our love for country, truth, and justice even when it is not returned to us.
Pelosi basically just called Katy Tur an apologist for trump and I’m glad somebody finally said it.
To note the pandemic, which happened in the LAST year of his term, as some sort of defense of his jobs record is insane.
She is such an unserious host.
We’ve all worked with women like Peggy Noonan.
They smile in your face while thinking less of you the entire time.
Kamala Harris has defied every odd in her career so... now you know WHY she dances in the rain.
Rep. Jeffries brilliantly links Republicans’ plan to pass legislation today restricting the govt’s ability to confront unemployment fraud while THEIR DECIDING VOTE, George Santos, was just arrested for unemployment benefits fraud.
Lizzo took a moment where people were celebrating her to uplift *others* who are rarely acknowledged for their work in making our communities safer and more empathetic.
We almost never see this today and it’s nothing short of extraordinary.
Love Keke but saying Claire didn’t keep it real just because she spoke her truth a certain way is wack asf. BW have many ways of expressing themselves.

Meghan McCain said our first Black woman Vice President displayed “stupid politics” and called her “Kamala” like they’re homegirls.

After terrorist and mass murderer Payton Gendron reads his statement, a woman from the gallery yells “YOU DON’T MEAN NONE OF THAT SHIT FOH!”
The amount of pain in her voice when she screams… I cannot.
Her empathy towards him is actually what moved me to tears here.
Even in her own pain, Regina could see his and with a simple touch she let him know it was ok.
That’s not just strength; it’s compassion.
This moment was so heartwarming and sad at the same time. The empathy Jimmy felt for Regina as he held back tears looking at her, while she remained strong and comforted him 😮💨😪 We love you Regina!
Honey, Speaker Pelosi just interrupted this press conference for the sole purpose of reminding y’all that Mitch McConnell created this situation and that his speech today was a load of bullshyt. 🔥🔥
Just received the bad news I’ve been avoiding for months. I am not ok and I need to check out for a minute.
Just pray for me. I appreciate you all so much and if you’re going through tough times too I hope you have someone/thing to hold you up.
Be well and keep tha faith. 💜
Every time Judge Jackson answers Ted Cruz she starts with Senator, followed by a sigh, and then speaks carefully as if she’s teaching a 3 year old how to pour milk into a cup.
In 2020, I shared this clip after Peggy Noonan wrote an article insulting VP Elect Kamala Harris.
This clip went viral on sev platforms with all agreeing that her article was petty and tone deaf.
Noonan is the kind of woman who holds all women back.
Letitia James leads the motion to certify Vice President Elect Kamala Harris followed by Hillary Clinton voting to elect Joe Biden and the first woman ever to serve as VP.
I’m sobbing like a straight up fool.

Biden closed his

presser with two important points:
1. He explained why optimism is good even in this political climate.
2. He noted the efforts of VP Harris.
The media does an impeccable job of diminishing both. Turn off that noise.
