In a recent article, Jonathan Chait explores the possibility that Kamala Harris may be the reason Joe Biden is not stepping aside as the Democratic nominee for president. According to Chait, Biden allies argue that if Biden were to step down, the only viable option would be to anoint Harris as the nominee.

They fear that denying Harris the nomination would anger Black voters and potentially lead to Donald Trump's re-election. However, Chait disagrees with this reasoning, suggesting that Harris may actually be a better nominee than Biden.

He points to Biden's disastrous debate performance as evidence that Harris, despite previous criticisms, may be a more capable politician at this point. Chait suggests that if the party were to consider replacing Biden, they should choose a candidate with the political skills and confidence to take on Trump.

Georgia's Black leaders continue to display support for President Biden despite concerns about his performance during the Atlanta debate. High-profile Black leaders backed Biden, expressing confidence in his ability to win re-election.

U.S.

Rep. Nikema Williams highlighted that Biden offered a positive vision for the future, while his rival, former President Donald Trump, spread false information.

U.S.

Rep. Lucy McBath stated that giving up on Biden would be detrimental to the gains already made by Democrats and that everyone needed to work together to ensure a win for Biden in November.

Some minor friction within the Democratic Party was observed, but concerns were generally kept behind the scenes. It is evident that Biden needs significant support from Black voters to retain Georgia and win another presidential term.

After former President Donald Trump made unsubstantiated claims about migrants threatening the availability of "Black jobs" during the first presidential debate, Black Americans took to social media to share photos of their workplaces using the hashtag #BlackJobs. Trump's comments, which appeared to be an attempt to appeal to communities of color through anti-immigration rhetoric, sparked confusion and criticism.

Many people questioned the concept of a "Black job" and highlighted that Black Americans excel in various industries and professions when given the opportunity. Black leaders in Congress also joined the conversation by sharing photos of themselves working at their "Black jobs.

" The response from Black Americans across different sectors, including finance, education, healthcare, and entertainment, emphasized the diversity and talent within the Black working community. The hashtag became a platform for celebrating Black excellence and pushing back against stereotypes.

Maryland Governor Wes Moore is being seen as the key to tapping into young black voters who are essential to the Democrats’ win over President Joe Biden. Moore’s appeal comes from his passionate speeches that take inspiration from former president Barack Obama.

These speeches focus on patriotism, freedom, and investing in both law enforcement and the communities they serve. Moore is an African American who won the governor’s mansion, the third African American ever to sit as a governor.

He is an Army veteran, an author, and a Rhodes Scholar. Bau Feng, a Maryland resident, says “We supported Joe with the expectation that he was going to pass the torch,” and suggests having Moore on the ticket might have achieved this goal.

In this article, the author argues that Joe Biden's exit from the political scene would be beneficial for black families. The author criticizes Biden's performance during the recent CNN Presidential Debate, stating that he was barely audible and unable to complete his thoughts.

The author suggests that Democrats should consider replacing Biden with California Governor Gavin Newsom, despite the potential backlash from black women, who are the party's most loyal voter base. The author believes that this move could break the left's hold on the black community and emphasize the importance of loyalty to the marital covenant rather than a political party.

The author also critiques the relationship between the government, liberal politicians, and single mothers, arguing that it hinders the prioritization of the black family. The author concludes by stating that the black community would benefit from focusing on rebuilding families rather than being reliant on a political party.

According to Keisha Lance Bottoms, a Biden campaign adviser, President Joe Biden is slipping in the polls with black voters due to "misinformation" that has been circulating since January 2020. Bottoms claims that there has been a targeted effort to spread disinformation and misinformation, especially among young African Americans, through social media.

She believes that when voters pay close attention and make a comparison between Biden and former President Donald Trump, they will see the clear differences and choose Biden. Bottoms also points out that Biden's recent statements about wanting to dismantle the Constitution, go after political enemies, and the Supreme Court's decision to grant him immunity are concerning and should be factors in voters' decision-making.

She remains confident that Biden's solid base of voters, particularly among black voters, will ultimately support him.

In a recent article, the owner of a Black barbershop in Atlanta claims that he was tricked by the Trump campaign into hosting a pre-debate event for the former president. The owner of Rocky's Barbershop, Rocky Jones, stated that he was under the impression that he was renting his shop out for a roundtable discussion for Black business owners, not an impromptu Trump rally.

Jones expressed regret about allowing himself to be filmed sitting next to Trump's surrogates, Ben Carson and Rep. Byron Donalds, as Trump spoke about his supposed support in the Black community.

Jones claims that his business has suffered backlash and lost customers since the event. However, some social media users are skeptical of Jones' claim, suggesting that he knew what he was agreeing to by hosting the event.

In this article, the author discusses the Trump-Biden debate and highlights Trump's characterization of some jobs as "black jobs" and "Hispanic jobs," implying that they are less worthy of respect. The author argues that this kind of thinking goes against the principle that all men are created equal and fails to recognize the intellectual value of jobs that have a physical component.

To illustrate their point, the author shares a photo of a box made from real wood, emphasizing the craftsmanship and skill required to create it. They also mention Trump's boasting about his proficiency in golf, a game known for its cheating and manipulation.

The author concludes by suggesting that a president with compassion and respect for all individuals and labor would be preferable to one who can lie with vigor.

In a recent Supreme Court ruling, former President Donald Trump was granted some level of immunity for his alleged role in attempting to overturn the 2020 election and the subsequent Capitol insurrection. This decision has sparked concern among elected officials and advocates, who argue that it sets a dangerous precedent and undermines the principles of democracy.

NAACP President Derrick Johnson stated that the ruling poses a danger not only to the African American community but to society as a whole. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson and Justice Sonia Sotomayor, in their dissents, expressed similar concerns, with Sotomayor stating that the ruling makes the president an unchecked king above the law.

Critics see this ruling, along with other controversial decisions made by the Supreme Court this session, as a departure from the concept of checks and balances and a threat to the rule of law. They argue that the upcoming election will play a crucial role in ensuring that the conservative majority of the court is not further solidified.

Kamala Harris, the US vice president, is worried that she may be overlooked as a possible replacement for President Joe Biden by the Democratic Party. There are growing concerns about Biden's age and his ability to defeat Donald Trump in a potential rematch.

However, the Biden campaign has dismissed calls for him to step aside for a younger candidate. Harris's team argues that it would be "offensive" to black voters to ignore her qualifications and experience for the role.

The speculation about potential replacements has centered around Gavin Newsom and Gretchen Whitmer, Democratic governors of California and Michigan. Harris's team highlights her appeal to black voters, a core demographic for the Democratic Party, who have recently begun to shift away from Biden.

While Biden still has a substantial lead among black voters, a shift towards Trump could change the outcome in some swing states.

In this article, the author discusses the illusion of victory in presidential debates and the prioritization of style over substance in American politics. The author argues that winning a debate should not depend on theatrics or charisma, but rather on the actual substance of what is said.

They commend President Biden's performance in the recent debate, emphasizing his policies and achievements, particularly those benefiting Black Americans. The author criticizes the media for focusing more on Trump's theatrics and racist rhetoric rather than Biden's accomplishments.

The article also explores the possibility of Vice President Kamala Harris assuming the presidency if Biden is unable to complete his second term. The author emphasizes the importance of reflecting on what we value in our leaders and demanding more from political discourse.

They advocate for focusing on policies and records that will truly impact our lives and the lives of future generations.

In "The Best Political Cartoons on Donald Trump," the author explores the use of editorial cartoons to satirize and critique the former president. These cartoons, created by talented artists like Chris Britt, offer a humorous and engaging perspective on Trump's presidency and his impact on various issues.



The article highlights the power of political cartoons in capturing the essence of Trump's personality and policies. From his infamous tweets to his controversial immigration policies, the cartoons provide a visual commentary that is both entertaining and thought-provoking.



The author emphasizes the importance of political cartoons in a democratic society, as they serve as a form of free expression and encourage critical thinking. These cartoons offer a unique way to convey complex political ideas and allow the public to engage in political discourse.

It serves as a reminder of the power of satire in shaping public opinion and promoting dialogue in today's political climate.

In a close presidential election, analysts are paying attention to the "Black vote" and wondering if it may be slipping away from the Democrats after decades of loyalty. The question of when exactly African American voters switched their allegiance from the Republican to the Democratic Party has been a topic of debate for historians.

Some believe the shift happened during the civil rights movement in the 1960s, while others trace it back to the New Deal policies in the 1930s. However, the roots of Black Americans' move toward the Democratic Party can be traced back even further, to the first three decades of the 20th century.

The early 1900s marked a time of great change and paved the way for African American dissatisfaction with the Republican Party. The Democrats, on the other hand, offered a new vision and mobilized newly arrived Black migrants to their cause.

The Great Migration of African Americans to industrial centers also led to a change in the political landscape and the emergence of a more radical faction of African American voters. Ultimately, it would take several more decades for a clear majority of Black voters to identify as Democrats, but the groundwork for their shift had already been laid.

In this article, the author discusses the concept of "Black jobs" sparked by comments made by former President Donald Trump during a debate about immigration. Trump suggested that immigrants taking low-wage positions are "taking Black jobs.

" This comment prompted confusion and disbelief, as jobs are not typically associated with a specific race. Black Twitter united in seeking an explanation for this term.

Senator Marco Rubio attempted to clarify, suggesting that Black jobs are low-wage positions in construction and trades, which immigrants may take at an even lower wage. This implies that white jobs are high-wage positions, perpetuating racial disparities in employment.

However, Black professionals from various fields took to social media to showcase their careers and call out the offensive nature of the term "Black jobs." The article concludes that despite these challenges, Black voters are crucial in shaping the outcome of elections and their support is necessary for progress and equality.
