By Lucius Gantt It's December 2025 and I want to wish the TGR family and friends happy holidays. I support everyone's celebratory spirit and encourage everyone to enjoy themselves and their loved ones. People who know me know that I really don't do holidays. ,My children prefer to celebrate holidays with their mothers, step-dads, and step-families. No problem. I wish everybody well. My friends invite me to holiday dinners, and I appreciate that, but

At some time in life, most Black men and women believe they are, or want to be, "Him" or "Her". We want to be the smartest, the strongest, the richest, the best, or the brightest. We want to be "The One"! When compared to other Black journalists and media professionals, I have reluctantly referred to myself as "Him", or the most versatile or the strongest Black media voice. When people say, "Lucius, you're brilliant", sometimes I agree because I know I am not.

The Gantt Report By Lucius Gantt I told you what was happening, and you read it. You called me “crazy” and now you regret it! Ukraine and Venezuela are hot topics in today’s news for the same reasons. Both countries are in the midst of military activity because of economic greed! “Oh, Ukraine is a Democratic nation that was invaded by Russia”, claims Negro podcasters, news hosts, and internet influencers. Yes, Russia is striking Ukrainian civili

By Lucius Gantt      America’s white supremacist President Donald Trump has always been opposed to Black progress in business, politics, labor, and other areas.       He has faced legal challenges for housing discrimination, he has called African nations “shit holes”, Trump has placed unfair tariffs on African commodity trading, and placed bans on some African travel to the United States.        His most recent comments about law-abiding Somali citizens residing in Minnesota

By Lucius Gantt       I practice and support freedom of speech. At the same time, Lies are not free. The people of the world need to pay for every misrepresentation that is made and every piece of information that is false.        In 2025, it appears as though most Black Americans get the information they use from social media. Our people love Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and similar platforms.   print       Back in the day, most Black people got their news from Black newspap

By Lucius Gantt       Our people love to talk about their rights. They say, “I’m an American and I have the rights of an American.     Most of us think we, like white Americans, have human rights, equal rights, voting rights, gay rights, worker rights, legal rights, and other rights.    In my opinion, the rights Black people have today are equal, in many ways, to the rights our ancestors enjoyed during slavery days, little rights, fewer rights or zero rights!        Let me ex

By Lucius Gantt There are more than a few Blacks in America have some money to spare. Some of those Black people consider themselves to be well-to-do. Well, I agree. Many Blacks can pay their bills and enjoy holidays, vacations, nice homes, luxury cars, and some of life’s better living and entertainment opportunities. I applaud my brothers and sisters in the “Negro Rich” class of Black Americans, but, in reality, most Black people with reasonable amounts

By Lucius Gantt        I don’t like to share my expertise on how to win elections, but I’ll give you a taste of information about how candidates for election to public office has been compromised by racially biased and very Incompetent highly paid political consultants.        I’ve been saying for decades, the most important question that candidates should ask is, “Who can deliver?”.        In the most recent Presidential election, consultants robbed Kamala Harris, and I imag

By Lucius Gantt       The Gantt Report is a subsidiary of All World Financial Group. “All World” is not a meme or monicker, All World has offices and staff on multiple continents.      “All World Africa” is headquartered in Lagos, Nigeria and is led by Dr. Osita Aniemeka, a Nigerian professor and a governmental consultant and advisor who has substantial expertise in agriculture and commodity trading.        Nigeria is not the world’s safest country. Osita was once kidnapped a

By Lucius Gantt The President of the United States, also called the "Babayka", or Russian boogieman, made a costly mistake by continuing to lie about his association with Jeffrey Epstein. Apparently, Attorney General Pam Bondi, was encouraged to slow walk any release of Epstein files collected or held by the Department of Injustice. When Democrats subpeoned the Epstein Family estate, they received unredacted copies of emails that the government already

By Lucius Gantt Don't believe the politricks! For over a decade, Republican elected officials in Congress, along with state and local Republicans have fought, tooth and nail, to abolish "Obamacare"! Well, there is no such legislation entitled as the Obama Care legislation. Republicans coined the "Obama Care" phrase to suggest to the supremacists, evangelicals, white nationalists, and other conservatives the Affordable Care Act was a "Black" health plan so The AC

By Lucius Gantt        I try very hard to stay in my digital lane. I write about economics and, politics but I do have considerable experience in sports reporting.        As a professional journalist, I was assigned by The Atlanta Journal, The Washington Post, The Associated Press in New York and Atlanta, and other major and minor media outlets in America and in print and broadcast companies around the world.       So, if it’s all right with the TGR family, I’d like to share

By Lucius Gantt       Black Americans are being told “Medicare for All” is the best health thing since the invention of band-aids. Democratic socialists, like Sen. Bernie Sanders, seem convinced that all United States citizens can benefit fra history of comprehensive and universal health system.        The idea is a great idea, but history is the best teacher. The “history” that I’m familiar with is a history of neglect and deprivation. The United States government has never

By Lucius Gantt Congratulations to the Democratic candidates who won monumental victories in the 2025 elections. So-called political pundits and experts suggested that the “affordability” messages were the reasons for winning races for Governor in New Jersey and Virginia, and for Mayoral wins in New York City and in Atlanta, Georgia. Well, TGR has a simpler analysis of how the elections turned out. All election night long, cable news pundits talked abo

By Lucius Gantt        President Donald Trump loves to attack Hispanics. He hits them with verbal attacks, calling them rapists and killers, and he is now literally attacking Venezuelan fishermen in international waters and falsely accusing row boats of being drug delivery vessels.         Trump, a convicted felon with a criminal history rap sheet, feels, as President, he can commit any killings or crimes he desires because America’s ultra-conservative Supreme Court justices

By Lucius Gantt       Once upon a time, I dreamed I would be a baseball player. I would walk from my Fourth Ward house on Angier Avenue to Ponce De Leon Park to watch the Atlanta Crackers play baseball.        They were a decent International League team with a few future future major league players. I wondered what kind of name was “the crackers”.         Decades passed until I realized “cracker” was what some Southern people called themselves.          Today, there is a new

By Lucius Gantt If you are a registered voter who unconditionally loves the elected officials who represent your community, today’s column is not for you. You can turn the page in your newspaper, or you can go to the next column on theganttreporttruth.com . You may not like this column. Here we go! The two major political parties are controlling your elected officials, primarily with money. Republicans need to parrot, rubber stamp and repeat every lie tol

By Lucius Gantt       United States President Donald likes to call African nations “sheet-holes”. I guess now, the “sheet” has hit the fan!       African countries are rising all across the continent. There is unity in Africa, there is harmony in Africa, there is courage in Africa, and there is money in Africa!        Inspired by Burkina Faso leader Ibrahim Traore, many African leaders are expelling the world’s colonialists, imperialists, militaries, and spies from the Mother

By Lucius Gantt        It’s October 2025, and early voting is underway for the upcoming elections in various communities and political districts in America.        There will be many Black Americans running for office, but most Blacks will continue to be running for their lives!        Let me go back a few centuries. Centuries before the days of slavery, people of African ancestry had benevolent leaders who believed in unity and harmony. We loved to live in unity and harmony.

By Lucius Gantt The United States President was recently smiling like the fox in the Israeli hen house, after he suggested that his "peace plan" would resolve a dispute that has lasted over a century. But, as I understand it, the recent "celebrations" were not about an end to hostilities, any happy faces were about the freed hostages. I have heard about the incarcerated Palestinians who were supposed to be released. I know there are teen aged Palestinians who we
