October 14, 2024: On this very special edition of PSYCHOTIC BUMP SCHOOL, DJ ROME puts the spotlight on the upcoming election and VP Harris' major announcement targeting one of her most loyal voters.
PART 1: After an homage to the now annual Indigenous Peoples Day, DJ ROME puts the spotlight on VP KAMALA HARRIS' big announcement of the rollout of her agenda for black male voters. On a recent media blitz both in and outside of legacy media, HARRIS stopped by THE ROLAND MARTIN UNFILTERED show to lay out her plan in the midst of a very competitive presidential race against former occupant of the white house Donald Trump.
PART 2: Former President Barack Obama made headlines over the weekend for his pointed observations toward male voters and their somewhat lukewarm support of VP Harris. A clip from AUGUSTUS CORBETT of The Defiant Lawyers' youtube channel breaks down what some are referring to as displaced vitriol against a sometimes cautious demographic.
Indigenous Peoples Day recognizes the contributions and legacy of those who lived here long before Christopher Columbus erroneously claimed to have discovered America. President Joe Biden formally recognized Indigenous Peoples Day in 2021 by signing a proclamation stating that federal policies "systematically sought to assimilate and displace Native people and eradicate Native cultures."
Featuring music by Public Enemy and Redbone

July 1, 2024: DJ ROME brings you DIZZIATIC NATION-PSYCHOTIC BUMP SCHOOL's AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM to discuss the single-most consequential Supreme Court ruling in the nation's history
Justices give presidents immunity for official acts
Washington Post:Writing for the majority, Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. said a president “may not be prosecuted for exercising his core constitutional powers, and he is entitled, at a minimum, to a presumptive immunity from prosecution for all his official acts.” But, Roberts added, the president “enjoys no immunity for his unofficial acts, and not everything the President does is official. The President is not above the law.”
In the dissent, Justice Sonia Sotomayor stated, The majority “reshapes the institution of the presidency” and “makes a mockery of the principle” that “no man is above the law,” wrote Sotomayor, joined by Justices Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson. “With fear for our democracy, I dissent.” -
