Listen, man. I know I'm only one person, and people are going to feel the way they feel ultimately about Stephen A. Smith doing this interview. He's going to be a rich, powerful, and wealthy man regardless, but I've made HBCU advocacy and being a part of HBCU media my literal job. Seeing these lies propagated without any pushback is enraging me. 1) He did not provide a record amount of funding for HBCUs. Both Barack Obama and Joe Biden provided more money to HBCUs. He did not provide a record level of funding for HBCUs (both Obama and Biden allocated more). Trump's claim relies on the FUTURE Act of 2019, but that law just permanently renewed existing funding that had briefly lapsed—it didn't create a new, record-setting pot of money. 2) HBCUs were not failing before Donald Trump got into office and set aside that money. That's flagrantly false and disrespectful to HBCUs. Yes, HBCUs are under-resourced because many have been underfunded by state and local governments for decades, but HBCUs, as institutions across the nation, were not about to go bankrupt. Especially given the fact that Trump's administration followed the Barack Obama administration, and then this second one followed record investment by the Biden administration 3) In February 2017, Donald Trump signed an executive order to move the White House Initiative of HBCUs from under the Department of Education to directly under the White House. I know this for a fact because months later, I was a White House HBCU All Star in the 2017-2018 school year (now called White House Scholars). President Biden did move it back under the Department of Education, but it doesn't really matter what it is under if Trump isn't doing anything remotely meaningful with said initiative (outside of using it as his get-out-of-jail-free card when talking about these supposed things he's done for the Black community). 4) President Joe Biden had a board of advisors for HBCUs that featured Delaware State president Dr. Tony Allen as the leader of that board. They convened regularly. President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris also invited HBCU presidents to the White House during this same time. So saying Democrats didn't do that is patently false, but again, Stephen A. Smith isn't providing pushback. I know this will be the one tweet that doesn't go viral or get anybody to like or retweet it, and I don't really care because I'm going to say what I have to say. But I'm going to address this on my show next week. HBCU Pulse Radio. Don't worry about it.

New: Dems are plotting to put single, rifle-shot bills on the floor week-by-week and dare GOP to block them R senators already warning it’ll backfire: “I think they’re at risk of doing exactly what we did the last two years,” Tillis said washingtonsun.com/the-stakeo…

Trump says "I think my level of popularity maybe is higher now" than ever "other than what happened at the midterms"

Confession: I was the writer who didn't vote for Derek Jeter, ensuring he wouldn't be a unanimous Hall of Famer. I will be on Fox and Friends Friday morning, discussing my brave decision and my even braver decision to come forward and announce it. I covered the Yankees for years, and there are specific reasons I came to this conclusion. In fact, I feel other writers weren't as brave as I was, and many commended me for it.

Dame Dash was asked about his thoughts on monogamy and says that having only one wife is “gay.” “A one wife situation is gay. Europeans are notoriously gay. The Spartans were gay, the Greeks were gay, Alexander the Great was gay, Hitler was super-gay.” Dash continued, “If you look at history, the tradition was to have one wife to have babies and have 7 boyfriends.” (🎥Sommer Hill/YouTube)

This battle between MJ, Yung Miami, Saucy and 1take was too much lol

They should’ve never given me a day off cause now I’m just in a rabbit hole of Looze Cannon / MJ content

what’s one Jay-Z song you think is ridiculously good but hardly ever hear anyone talk about?

Re @ChuckSchumer, I think there is some sentiment in the Senate of "let him enjoy this win and go out on top." Meaning that he is likely to retire in 2028 (he soon turns 76), rather than go to war for his seat against a young, popular, formidable challenger like AOC. 1/
