5.20.2026 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: Colo. Gov Blasted Over Tina Peters. Miss. Day of Action. Activists Target FedEx Over Voting Rights. J6 Cops Sue Trump Over Lawfare Fund √Colorado's Democratic Governor, Jared Polis, is catching hell over his decision to commute election conspiracy theorist Tina Peters' prison sentence. We'll talk to one of the State Representatives about the censure petition. Today, it was Mississippi's Day of Action, and we'll show you some of what happened there. But Tennessee is gearing up for its Fix it, FedEx campaign. Voting activists say corporations like FedEx have been too quiet about the loss of voting rights. We have one of the campaign's organizers to explain their demands. It got heated during today's House Judiciary Committee hearing examining the Southern Poverty Law Center's alleged misconduct of diverting donor funds and mislabeling conservative groups as hate organizations. And two of the Jan. 6 police officers filed a lawsuit against the Trump Administration to block the nearly $1.8B 'lawfare' fund.

Roland your vast telephone directory Is needed to call for support. It’s possible to support these athletes and their parents with decisions on schooling if they knew the Black community would share in the struggle. If most of the organizations would have their members pledge to not look at, attend or listen to NFL or NBA sports, the Nielsen ratings would fall so low their advertisers will panic. From their those powerful owners could become lobbyist for the earnings of school athletes as well as loss of voting rights. Touching the OWNERS money in the right way will get their response.This could also support professional athletes to take a stand who want to know they are taking on these causes with the support of the Black population.

I hate when they say that. Cuz preachers don’t speak in that cadence 24/7. It’s a dumb argument! All of us get a certain cadence when we’re passionate and sick and tired. Idk what they do and don’t care.
