Disinformation preys on our brains' natural tendencies. When false messages flood our feeds day after day, they start to feel true. Social media’s power to amplify lies has never been greater, making it easier than ever to manipulate perceptions.

Black history IS American history. As we approach America's 250th anniversary, it’s worth asking: whose stories are being told vs. being erased? Disinformation and propaganda have tried to minimize Black contributions, treating us like outsiders in a place we helped build.
Aisha started with a real question: How do we build a tool people will actually use? Not more friction or confusion, but something that helps people find better info faster — especially when mainstream tools keep missing Black history, politics, and culture.
100,000 of you. One mission. Thank you for showing up, tapping in, and refusing to let misinformation have the last word. 🖤 Level Up. Lock In. Move Different. More tools, more Truth or Trap, and more ways to protect Black futures are on the way.
Disinformation is here. The response can’t be passive. Don’t just scroll. Question what you see. Trust your gut. Verify. Then verify again. #OnyxImpact #Disinformation
DEI has become a political smokescreen. Funding cuts hit Black institutions. Targeting programs serving Black communities. One example gets amplified into a full justification. Esosa Osa calls it a mis- and disinformation strategy. And it’s working.
Ok it's time to settle this. Who really takes the Jollof crown? 🇳🇬 Nigerian Jollof? 🇬🇭 Or Ghanaian Jollof? No matter where you land, one thing’s clear: West Africa stays undefeated. Drop your flag in the comments or confess if you love them both.
3.4 BILLION dollars in programs that protect Black communities have been frozen. Cancer research. Sickle cell research. Black businesses. Black entrepreneurs. All erased. Quietly. They can delete the data. They can’t delete the truth. Read the Blackout Report.

The fight for our vote is more urgent than ever. Supreme Court's decision in Louisiana v. Callais is a move to erase Black representation, but we won't let that happen. It's on us to stay informed, get involved, and demand change. Our power is in our unity and knowledge.
ICYMI: TRUTH OR TRAP Auntie edition?? Dayna pulled up on Norfolk State's campus to put students’ cultural knowledge to the test—and the answers had us laughing and learning. 😂📚 Be honest… would you pass? #YearInReview
Gates: Netanyahu told me in July 2009 that the Iranian regime was fragile and would crumble at the first attack. I told him then he was dead wrong - that he was underestimating the resilience of the Iranians. This is what he's been trying to sell for years.
Northside Home Care Services workers were outside the Dáil yesterday (and out in Coolock today) with their union the IWU to fight for their basic entitlements to pay parity. Have a listen to Sonya explain why they're there, and why they'll keep fighting. #FightForYourRights #JoinAUnion

Im Fellner-TV sind mittlerweile auch die letzten Tabus gebrochen und jede Grenze des guten Geschmacks meilenweit überschritten. Gerald Grosz darf live auf Sendung queere Menschen verhöhnen – und seine menschenverachtenden Parolen anschließend auf seinen Social-Media-Kanälen weiterverbreiten.
I asked our witnesses at today’s hearing what they would say to Americans who have fallen victim to anti-immigrant rhetoric. Listen to their responses:
No more “wait and see.” No more “let’s be polite.” ICE is escalating. Trump is enabling. We are not waiting for permission to fight back. This weekend — we show up. We stand up. We shut it down. #ICEOutForGood social.demcast.com/s/gEzZJde6

QUINTESSENTIAL TRUMP GRIFT—just like the wall Mexico never paid for, he’s sticking taxpayers with the ballroom bill. He shook down Fortune 500s for hundreds of millions; now, like his library fund, that money will vanish into his pockets. It’s public theft in plain sight—with Graham as the bag man!🤦🏿♂️

Q: Can you comment on the IRS settlement which was rolled over into this weaponization fund over at DOJ? Bessent: It would be inappropriate for me to comment. Trump is a great American who has endured more than 10 years of nonstop harassment and weaponization. Wait, what?!?! Projection!
The success of Pauline Hanson's One Nation in Farrer isn't a major shift in Australian politics, it's just a reshuffling of the deck chairs on a right-wing Titantic that's kept afloat by bigotry and grifting. #auspol #Insiders #OneNation #neoNazis #Farrer
Many survivors question themselves because their abuse doesn’t “look bad enough.” Control. Monitoring. Threats. Financial restriction. These are real. And they are harmful. Awareness saves lives. If this resonates, you’re not imagining it. Support is available. Contact us: (470) 589-7751
The Epstein investigation is proof we have a two-tier justice system: one for the wealthy & well-connected and one for survivors. Oversight Democrats took our investigation to Palm Beach where many of the horrific crimes—and failures of justice—took place. We will not stop pursuing accountability.
ALL EYES ON DELANEY. ICE violence continues outside Delaney Hall as the captives continue their hunger strike inside.
‘Like drinking from a fetid-pond.’ A new report from Watershed Investigations (link in comments) detects superbug-creating genes at Lough Neagh. Commenting on The Nolan show, Green Party Leader Mal O’Hara raised his concerns that things at Lough Neagh are getting worse rather than better.
I love this for Trump. Every second he's sitting there, he’s feeling low and humiliated, and the fact everyone is laughing at him is killing him, and I love every bit of it.
At full Council I asked about the average cost of a pedestrian crossing, previously I've received answers from the Cabinet Member on a crossing not going in on Bridge Road prior to any larger transport plans, due to potential risk in altering it. I wanted to get a clear picture of that risk cost.

AI is booming. The broader economy, not so much. That matters because workers and small businesses don’t all live inside one tech boom.
Top-down housing targets are placing tremendous pressure on our communities and green spaces, while driving developments that are not fit for purpose and lack the infrastructure local people need. I have been raising the alarm in Westminster to stop this top-down approach!
