(ThyBlackMan.com) King Charles of the UK came to the US a few days ago, apparently to fix the frayed ties with the U. S. Since the King had a brother involved in the Epstein crimes, he was asked to speak to the women who were the victims of the crimes. Such a small ask, but the King turned the invitation down, probably as a courtesy to Trump. To his credit, the King has already dealt with the problem in […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) In Washington, the name on a bill is often the opposite of what it does. The Main Street Depositor Protection Act is the latest example. The name sounds noble. The math is not. Here is what the bill would change. The FDIC is the federal agency that pays you back if your bank closes its doors. Today, it covers up to $250,000 in each account. Most people never come […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) I’m going to say something a lot of brothers don’t really want to hear, but need to hear anyway. Some of that weight you putting on ain’t just from food. It’s coming from everything you holding in. I’ve been around this fitness game long enough to see the same story play out over and over. A brother comes in, looks me dead in the face, and says, “Man, I […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Much has been made of the advanced education of the latest would-be assassin of President Donald Trump, whom the suspect described in a manifesto as a “pedophile,” “rapist” and “traitor.” He graduated from the California Institute of Technology, one of the most selective schools in the country. As to Caltech, Daniel McCarthy of the Intercollegiate Studies Institute writes: “In the most recent City Journal college rankings, Caltech took the […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Politicians and political parties, when unconstrained by constitutional guardrails or statutory limits, have long demonstrated a remarkable ability to manipulate electoral rules to their advantage. Gerrymandering is among the most enduring and consequential examples of this practice. The term itself dates back to 1812, when then-Massachusetts Gov. Elbridge Gerry signed legislation redrawing legislative districts to benefit his Democratic-Republican Party. A newspaper, the Boston Gazette, famously mocked one contorted district […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) These are not normal times we are living in when it comes to the partisan gerrymandering war. The state of Virginia successfully passed a referendum that allows Democrats to hit back hard in their redistricting counteroffensive against the Republicans. Virginia’s current congressional delegation has six Democrats and five Republicans, which accurately reflects the state. The new map turns what was a fair depiction into an advantage, giving Democrats 10 of […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) I’m going to tell you something most people don’t say out loud. That belly didn’t show up by accident. And it’s not leaving just because you hit the gym for a couple weeks either. A lot of Black men carry weight in the midsection, and we joke about it, call it grown man weight, call it good living. But deep down, most of us know when it’s getting out […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) The United States government, more specifically, the Trump administration, is confusing American voters, when it comes to what is the real monthly unemployment situation of American workers. And guess what, the number one issues of American voters are Jobs, inflation (affordability) and the economy. If the Trump administration refuses to acknowledge, what is the nation’s real month to month unemployment situation, that means President Donald Trump isn’t serious, about fixing high unemployment and inflation. Fixing […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) The king came to town for tea, dinner and a little chat with Congress and the president. By the time you read this, Charles III’s state visit may be a little piece of history. The “special relationship” between the United States and the United Kingdom could undergo a stress test. For one thing, Charles is probably horrified and mystified at the shooting at the White House Correspondents’ dinner but […]
