In a front page article in @nytimes this morning WNBA player A’Ja Wilson says the reason she isn’t marketable is racism, “It’s 100% about race.” Ah, yes, if only black athletes could finally overcome racism and get marketing deals.

Before becoming Pope, listen to what Cardinal Prevos had to say about service. It's too bad fascist despots like Trump and Vance don't take this message to heart. Sadly, instead of serving the American people, they only serve their own avarice and greed.

The VA has a list of 585 contracts they've cancelled, impacting veteran care. Have they shown us the list despite numerous requests? No. Today, @SecVetAffairs refused to answer my direct questions about that list — further raising my concerns about the VA's lack of transparency.
