Ron Reynolds: Why MAGA policies are detrimental to Black communities
As a representative deeply invested in the well-being of my constituents, I feel compelled to shed light on the harmful impact of the MAGA agenda. While its proponents claim to champion America’s greatness, the reality is far from uplifting, especially for Black Americans. Let’s be clear: Make America Great Again (MAGA) is not a call for progress; it’s a thinly veiled attempt to turn back the clock on the hard-fought gains of marginalized communities, including Black Americans. From voting rights to healthcare to economic opportunity, the policies espoused under the guise of MAGA pose a direct threat to the advancements we’ve made in the pursuit of equality and justice. Take voting rights, for example. MAGA proponents peddle baseless claims of widespread voter fraud to justify voter suppression tactics that disproportionately target Black voters. The purpose of restrictive voter ID laws, purging voter rolls, and limiting early voting hours is to silence marginalized communities and maintain the status quo of power and privilege.

"I had a guy tell me that he could hack into our election equipment through the power outlet," she recalled. "It's never been like this before. And it's not stupidity. They really don't care about truth or integrity. They just want their outcome. I think that's it." |

Green Day reworks ‘American Idiot’ lyrics to trash ‘MAGA agenda’ during ‘Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve’
During a New Year’s Eve performance of their hit song “American Idiot,” legendary punk band Green Day changed its lyrics to take a shot at former President Trump and his followers. Playing the 2004 hit for “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve” on ABC Sunday night, the band changed the lyrics of the second verse for the MAGA take down. Though lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong appeared to garble the lyrics, multiple outlets reported that he sang, “I’m not a part of a MAGA agenda,” instead of the original, “I’m not a part of the redneck agenda.” (Gabriel Hays/New York Post 1/1/24) READ MORE>>>>> |

So, Trump calls Bragg racist, and now racists are coming out of water Klan-holes they reside in to essentially threaten to lynch a Black officer of the court. One can easily tell this is a “MAGA monkey say, MAGA monkey react” situation the way the alleged racists keep invoking Soros’ name simply because Trump and other Republicans like Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis keep spreading the narrative that the Democratic billionaire is directly backing Bragg, which, of course, he’s not. (Zach Linley/102.5Block 10/13/23)
