(ThyBlackMan.com) The current political environment displays an extraordinary number of significant changes which have never been seen. The Republican Party encountered increasing public scrutiny about Donald Trump’s bond with Jeffrey Epstein while the Democratic Party secured two governor positions in New Jersey and Virginia. The present political news cycle differs from previous ones because it contains more than standard partisan disagreements. It’s something deeper. The public seeks accountability because they […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Now that Zohran Mamdani is the mayor-elect of New York City, expect the slings and arrows at him to intensify.  He has been called everything but a child of God, and he gleefully claims himself as a democratic socialist, a Muslim, a progressive social justice advocate and a leader who recognizes the shoulders on which he stands, shouting out some of the workers responsible for his victory. He is […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Harriet Tubman’s life and words remain among the most inspiring in American history. She was not merely an abolitionist but a visionary whose courage helped shape the moral conscience of a divided nation.

(ThyBlackMan.com) Donald Trump’s approval numbers continue to crater. Even Republicans have cooled on the president’s performance. But the president shows no sign of noticing, nor is he changing his ways. Even his gaslighting has gone wan. He’s failed to make Americans believe that prices are going down when they’re clearly not. What gives? Why isn’t he trying to win back the public’s love? Perhaps because he no longer cares. The […]

Similar investments are underway in Pittsburgh. On the surface, these are the headlines American manufacturing needs.

The pace of manufacturing growth between 2022 and 2024 […]

(ThyBlackMan.com)  There are numerous unpleasant truths Americans of all stripes, phenotypes and colors need to confront and determine what, if anything, we can do to resolve them. What are unpleasant truths you ask? Simply put, unpleasant truths are difficult and uncomfortable facts which need to be acknowledged and addressed; by addressed, I mean confronted and resolved.

(ThyBlackMan.com) I think the Supreme Court will rule against President Donald Trump’s imposition of tariffs. That said, it’s just remarkable that the vote will not be 9-0. Trump is claiming sweeping powers to impose (and rescind and reimpose and re-rescind) tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act of 1977 (IEEPA), which was a revised version of the Trading with the Enemy Act of 1917 (TWEA).
