Donald Trump released a plan for black Americans which included a promise to make the KKK a domestic terrorism organization…. but only if you vote for him because why act now? A big reason is that, legally, he can’t. Not now. Not if he wins re-election. And neither can congress. In the case “Holder v.…

The Trump administration negotiated a deal with the pharmaceutical industry that would have “addressed out-of-pocket consumer costs and covered the majority of the Medicare copayments that seniors pay for prescription drugs.” This would have actually been a big win for America’s senior citizens.
