@ADOSorg Great article. Thanks for the heads up.

“People who don’t understand politics will be upset because Jasmine was their hero,” said Texas state Rep. Jolanda Jones, a Democrat. “But for people who understand politics, [Crockett] literally had no ground game.” She added: “This L is on her.” 📰 buff.ly/WJEu3Xp

Many people don’t grasp the politics or economics of what is going on with The Strait of Hormuz. This isn’t about just taking the strait. It’s about making it available for GUARANTEED INSURABLE safe passage. The issues now are the scale of resources that must be transported through this strait with ZERO threat of attack. And the reason is that without ZERO guaranteed threat the insurance companies that insure these multi million dollar oil tankers will void coverage. SO ANY OWNER WOULD HAVE TO TAKE THAT RISK OF CROSSING AND NOT BEING HIT BY ATTACK ON THEIR OWN. #StraitofHormuz

Saw a story yesterday where a man shot his girlfriend and others after losing $10,000 at the casino. Two people died. Antonio & I told you this was going to get bad. @tonetalks has been on it consistently for years now.

SCOOP: Last year we reported extensively on Elon Musk’s desire to break into the data pipes of government to bypass the federal bureaucracy. That approach had major consequences — one of which we reveal today: A DOGE bro allegedly made off with volumes upon volumes of highly sensitive Social Security data - the agency’s “crown jewels” - which he downloaded on a thumb drive and brought over to his new job. Me, @MerylKornfield @FedGirlWaPo report on this unprecedented breach: washingtonpost.com/politics/2026/…

“When individuals tied to political organizations joke about violence against Black Americans or praise Nazi imagery, it signals a troubling level of anti-Black hostility that cannot be ignored.” #Miami #FIU buff.ly/Rtzksqv

You must give people something to vote for. This is part of any effective Get Out The Vote strategy. This is especially true for #ADOS because we’ve watched the system fail to effectively meet our needs for generations. Many have given up on voting our way out of this. @ADOSorg is available to help candidates draft a robust Black agenda. Because it’s inexcusable to ask for someone’s vote & offer nothing in exchange.
