Kindred, before we close, let’s step back for a moment. For the past couple of weeks, our nation has been rocked by disturbing news at what seems like a non-stop basis at times. The investigation into a Delta State University student found hanging and another male found hanging elsewhere in the state of Mississippi has community members and public figures like Ben Crump and Colin Kaepernick demanding transparency and justice.
These deaths, pointing to historical echoes of lynchings across America and especially in Mississippi, can’t be ignored and will not be allowed to be swept under the rug without a full investigation and second autopsy. At the same time, attacks on the First Amendment are raising alarms. Reports surfaced of Donald Trump pushing Jimmy Kimmel off the air, Disney and ABC along with others threatening to cancel other shows, and then people rushing to cancel Disney Plus and other subscriptions, even crashing Disney’s website with a flood of cancellation inquiries.
So now the bigwigs are said to be restarting Kimmel’s program run today. Critics are demanding to fight against these efforts to intimidate free press voices and control narratives, and I applaud them. Meanwhile, some political operatives stir talk of division even further among the people and civil war attempts to distract from what many see as the real issue, whether Trump himself should be recalled through impeachment.
Let’s be clear, the record is long, but here are just five key things Donald Trump has done that stands out as undeniable grounds for impeachment. Inciting the January 6th insurrection and failing to protect Congress. Pressuring election officials in Georgia to find votes to overturn results.
Obstructing justice by refusing subpoenas and destroying records. Profiting from the presidency by steering taxpayer funds to Trump properties. And endangering national security by mishandling classified documents.
Urban city fam, remember every attempt to divide, distract, and silence is designed to keep us from accountability, security, and a stable democracy. Stay vigilant, analytical, and informed. Now, Kendrick, regardless of today’s report coming to a close, remember that every headline here is more than just news.
