In a trend some refer to as “Blaxit,” Black Americans are taking advantage of Africa’s significantly reduced cost of living and perceived lack of racism and racial discrimination. The COVID-19 pandemic and the racial reckoning following George Floyd’s murder pushed many Black Americans to go abroad in search of acceptance. In a trend some refer to as “Blaxit,” Black Americans are taking advantage of Africa’s significantly reduced cost of living and what they described as the lack of racism and discrimination they faced in the United States, The New York Times reported. Ashley Cleveland, 39, moved from Atlanta to Dar...

Jes’ka Washington lives in a six-bedroom house on a hill with avocado trees and a spectacular view, not far from the rabbit farm she runs. For less than $50,000, Shoshana Kirya-Ziraba and her husband built a four-bedroom, two-bathroom house on family farmland with goats, turkeys and about a thousand chickens. Mark and Marlene Bradley now call themselves islanders and the owners of three homes cooled by ocean breezes. All of them are Black Americans who found their new homes in Africa. They are enjoying the substantially lower cost of living and, more important, they said, the absence of the racism...

Twenty-one black White House staffers have either left or will reportedly leave their administrative posts amid a lack of mentorship and promotion chances. In the midst of a competitive White House work environment, many black staffers have decided to leave their jobs because “mentorship is hard to come by and opportunity to move up the ranks of a tight-knit operation is exceptionally rare,” according to Politico. The White House has historically been a competitive workplace, full of ambitious individuals looking to gain experience to turn into a lucrative job outside of the administration. But according to three black White House...

More than 20 black White House aides have departed the Biden administration since late last year, an exodus some have dubbed “Blaxit,” according to a new report. While some of the departing staffers have left on good terms to pursue additional career or educational opportunities, others have attributed the turnover to a lack of mentorship and opportunity, Politico reported Tuesday, citing nine black current and former White House officials. “We’re here and we’re doing a lot of work but we’re not decision-makers and there’s no real path towards becoming decision-makers,” one current staffer told the outlet. “There is no real...

Ice Cube said he did not want to be a part of a Zoom call with Sen. Kamala Harris that included other ‘entertainers’ Ice Cube has been adamant that Democrats told him to hold off until after the election before making demands for his “Contract With Black America.” However, he admitted that he blew off a Zoom call with vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris.

There's an interesting Robert Taylor film 'Adventures of Quentin Durward'--a dangerous, incorruptible man--in which 1465 French King Louis XI played by Robert Morely, is a supremely ruthless politician in the modern sense, supposedly in the interests of keeping France together in the aftermath of the 100 Years' war with England. King Louis manipulates the Scottish character of 'Quentin Durward', a kind of Douglas Fairbanks, swashbuckling, athletic hero. but in talkies. But ultimately, Morely goes into political despair of Taylor because he is uncorruptable, and therefore, a wild card in the political game.Mr. Justice Clarence Thomas was shown to be an...

"I've lived under 12 presidential administrations," Scott said. "I was born during Eisenhower's administration. This president has been the most pro-black president in my lifetime. When I say 'pro,' I'm saying 'pro' as in proactive. He's been proactive rather than reactive to issues concerning minorities, underserved, and disadvantaged communities than any other president in my lifetime."

...True liberals are leaving the authoritarian left in droves. We are witnessing a movement in real time of people who used to consider themselves to be part of the left leaving it and becoming politically homeless. They have varying reasons for this, but it’s primarily because the authoritarian left has lost the plot. Many in the #WalkAway movement leaving the left find themselves politically homeless because they don’t see our side as any better. Focusing on pragmatic populism only works for a little while, then many start questioning where we are going. This is why we need to have a...

Former Georgia gubernatorial candidate and voting rights advocate Stacey Abrams hit the nail on the head, telling voters not to let two small, virtually all-white states tell them whom to pick as the Democratic presidential nominee: ‘We need a more representative sample’ — Exclusive: @staceyabrams believes that our Iowa and New Hampshire first primary system is silencing voters of color She makes the logical case that only 65 delegates have been selected (distributed rather evenly among several candidates) — out of a grand total of 1,991 who would need to be pledged to win the nomination on the first ballot....

Democrat strategist James Carville warned that the smug, urbanist mindset is causing the Democratic Party to be distracted by the wrong issues. Democratic strategist James Carville unleashed on 2020 Democratic candidates for pulling the party too far left and warned Democrats are at risk of seeming “culturally arrogant” to the working class. His rant began on a viral MSNBC segment this week after the chaos of the Iowa caucuses, then he extended his admonishments in an interview with Vox.Vox Writer Sean Illing seemed to question whether Carville’s strong reaction was warranted. Are Democrats “really destroying the party?” he asked. “What...

Video of a good size rally where black voters are fed up with Democrats' war on school choice! They are very vocal and projecting their dissatisfaction to Elizabeth Warren, chanting very loudly "We want school choice!"

On Thursday, House lawmakers passed a bill that would allow illegal immigrants to be able to sue their employer for damages if their labor rights are violated but rejected a measure that would prevent the possibility of unions from recruiting other illegal immigrants.

As usual, fake news media ignored a Democrat irresponsibly throwing a racial-hate-generating grenade into a crowd of blacks. On MLK day 2020, Joe Biden referred to Trump as “this president and his Ku Klux Klan...” This is extremely evil when you understand that Biden knows his accusation is absurd and easily proven false. Biden thought he was simply throwing the dumb black congregation a vote-winning racist dog biscuit. As a black and grateful proud American, it turns my stomach the way Democrats repeatedly pander to us, pretending race relations in America have not progressed beyond the 1950s. Irresponsibly, Hollywood, public...

This is hilarious...and SPOT-ON!

President Trump's reelection campaign manager Brad Parscale told Fox News' "Bill Hemmer Reports" Monday that the forthcoming Senate impeachment trial was unlikely to have any impact at the polls this November, and may even help the president's chances. "As soon as the president runs on any of the ballots, against any of their policies, he performs greatly against them, better than [even against Hillary] Clinton [in 2016]," Parscale said. " ... He is so far ahead of where he was in 2016 against Clinton, he is so far ahead of these other candidates in fundraising and in numbers ... and...

First it was antifa beating people up at conservative rallies, and conservatives acting in self defense getting arrested and demonized by the media. Then, it was the fake pipe bombs story. Then, it was the synagogue shooting. Obviously, the mainstream media pedaled the mantra “it’s all Trump’s fault” on all occasions, 24/7, around the clock. However, the American people are not buying their crap anymore. We’re sick and tired of leftist propaganda. See, it’s the economy, stupid. According to the latest poll from Rasmussen Reports, 50 percent of US likely voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Again, this is...
