Black Homeownership Programs Face Scrutiny Under Trump Administration.

(ThyBlackMan.com) “Investigating a bank for following the government’s own rules to create paths to address longstanding discrimination in lending is an abuse of the agency’s investigative authority and a transparent attempt to scare every lender in the nation away from their legal obligation to serve underserved communities.” — Nikitra Bailey, executive vice president, National Fair Housing Alliance The Trump Administration’s reported investigation into Wells Fargo’s efforts to increase Black homeownership is not about fairness, equal treatment, or protecting the integrity of […]

How to Build a Practical Compliance Plan for Your Business.

(ThyBlackMan.com) A practical compliance plan is a short set of decisions about what rules apply and how we prove we follow them in daily work.

Democrats and Republicans Face Voters Frustrated With Washington.

(ThyBlackMan.com) The November midterm vote will be shaped less by party slogans than by the judgments voters make about their daily lives: whether prices feel manageable, whether their communities feel safe, and whether Washington is listening.

America’s Biggest Problem May Not Be Which Party Controls Washington.

(ThyBlackMan.com) Two years after voters tossed Democrats from power in Washington, polls show they are ready to switch sides again.

U.S. Deficit Nears $2 Trillion as Washington Faces a Spending Crisis.

(ThyBlackMan.com) The federal government just closed fiscal year 2026 with a deficit of nearly $2 trillion, according to figures the Congressional Budget Office released last Thursday.

Death Penalty Debate: Should Government Have the Power to Kill?

(ThyBlackMan.com) “It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets.” — Voltaire (1694-1778) A government that claims the authority to kill persons after they have been subdued, disarmed, tried, convicted and confined in prison has made a startling claim about the nature of political power.

(ThyBlackMan.com) A serious accident reshapes daily life in ways that stretch far beyond the emergency room. Medical treatment addresses the body, but the financial and emotional weight that follows often grows heavier in the weeks and months after, when bills accumulate and income disappears. Personal injury touches every corner of a household, reaching what a family earns, how it functions, and whether it can sustain the life it spent years building. Recognizing the full reach of that harm is where […]
