People of color are used to being racially profiled. Take it from me. I've been accused of stealing from stores. I've been accused of being a suspect in a crime. I've even been accused of being in the country illegally by law enforcement officers.

It happens so often that I don't even flinch anymore.

But while you can expect more of that coverage to roll out this week, we think it's time to give Elon Musk some attention.

Trump has ushered in a tornado of change that reaches just about every aspect of how our government operates.

We see you in the back with your hand raised as President Donald Trump runs wild with his agenda and Republicans sit up front, letting it happen. Today we gather to ask you, the libs, what is next for your party? What do you want to see happen in the short-term, and what do you hope will happen in the long-term?
