… America was not built on kindness or the Christianity of Christ. It was not built on freedom or liberty. This nation was built on white supremacy. Its founders owned human beings that they worked to death and raped at will for sexual pleasure. The indigenous people were slaughtered and terrorized for land and profit. Not for years, or decades, but for centuries, this nation exploited and victimized every single person who was not a white man — denying them all the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness — denying them all the right to vote, the right to safety, the right to dignity. …
The man who drove his car into the crowd killing one person and injuring others is only 20 years old……20…..hard to know when his radicalization started…..and his mother…(did not hear from his dad.) did not have a clue to what her son was about….
there is a woman name Chiquilla Holt who is running for commissioner in my town ship …she said …Future Leaders Begin at Home.” Parents, we need to examine what kind of leaders are we training through our words, actions, silence or inaction.
this is so true…
❤ to RT your Tweets. Your words are Value based. Precise. Poignant. Cutting through the Malarkey. Thank you Doc.
We can thank these folk ….
… for motivating GoDaddy to do what they should have done without any prompting from anyone …
OMG…..
Toddler woke up from his nap and realized that NeoNazis and their likes are bad.
Sad.
That Merck CEO guy should state publicly that he was glad that his resignation made the turd to do this.
The administration felt too much pressure to denounce the white supremacists, so he was forced to say it.
He doesn’t mean it at all.
Members of the Obama Coalition heard her message, saw Donald Trump for who he is and we’re not fooled. Question is why didn’t others see Trump. Why didn’t the media….The band plays on….
My FLOTUS
Speaking of the Confederacy…. for anyone who thinks that battle against the confederacy ended with the Civil War…i show them Trump in the WH…i show the you the Nazis marching in downtown Charlottesville, VA…in Germany….it is ILLEGAL to fly the Nazi Flag…..here..the Confederate Flag is not only enshrine in state flags…see GA…but it is couched in some kind of folklore
all this takes me to something Bob has talked about numerous time…it is #TruthAndReconciliation…i had asked 57 in a previous post…where do we go from here…this is where we go…Truth and Reconciliation…if this is not on the agenda…then all this hoopla means nothing…nothing at all
Because the White Nazi’s and Militia out-gunned them and they don’t bring out the military weapons on their own.
the statement from POTUS is insufficient and now the news media would absolve him of his racist views, Steve Bannon and company are still in the whitehouse with there white nationalist views I am not buying this pathetic
We have to hold this President responsible for the safety of all citizens he can couch his statement without adequate condemnation of the white nationalist that are within his staff, and its time we hold Republicans responsible for what is happening
yeah, right…………
GA jojo.
Guess who benefits if China lives up to their commitment?
Spoiler alert… it’s Russia (from June):
OMG, SERIOUS LAUGH BREAK!!!!

Hello TOD Village.
Congrats to Jojo on for the FURST Au ⭐ Medal in 2017 🙂
NW, Thanks!
{{{ ❤ Chip ❤ }}}
I'm so proud of all those fellow Americans who were out in the streets on Sunday ending their Voices, Bodies & Time against Hate. I ❤ them dearly.
Remember back in 2008, when Sarah Palin used to talk about the “real America”? She meant rural and small-town residents — white residents, it went without saying — who supposedly embodied the nation’s true essence.
She was harshly condemned for those remarks, and rightly so — and not just because the real, real America is a multiracial, multicultural land of great metropolitan areas as well as small towns. More fundamentally, what makes America America is that it is built around an idea: the idea that all men are created equal, and are entitled to basic human rights. Take away that idea and we’re just a giant version of a two-bit autocracy.
/// 😦 (for posting 3.25 paragraphs)
And when we fall short in our effort to live up to our ideals, as we all too often do, at least we realize and acknowledge our failure.
But the man who began his political ascent by falsely questioning Barack Obama’s place of birth — a blood-and-soil argument if ever there was one — clearly cares nothing about the openness and inclusiveness that have always been essential parts of who we are as a nation.

They moved to Google but Google says NOPE.
Dems did that.
Most progress in US n the last 100yrs came from #Dems.
They need to own their Achievements & Explain how they got it done.
originally black folks were excluded from SS..
the Social Security Act of 1935 might never have passed without support from the 141 Democrats from Southern states. And, the book strongly implies, many of those Democrats only supported the bill after it got tweaked in committee so that it excluded farm workers and maids — who represented two-thirds of black workers in the South at the time.
As a result of the change, 65 percent of the African American workforce was excluded from the initial Social Security program (as well as 27 percent of white workers). Many of these workers were covered only later on, when Social Security was expanded in 1950 and then in 1954.

The author disputes that there was any racial bias involved…..it just happened to work out that way….
Gorgeous.

Just as spectacular from another angle
Old but still AWESOME!

For real!!
The NAACP Legal Defense Fund…is still on the case…Thank God for them
I hope Trump regrets ever setting foot in NYC again.
Tell it!
It’s so sad that those children died in India, where the oxygen supply was shut off because the hospital owed the supplier 86,000 dollars.
OMG! 😳
Parents forced to watch helplessly as 64 children and babies die at an Indian hospital as oxygen supply is suddenly is cut off over an unpaid bill

I read this earlier did not know it was they were in ND… this fellow ex-NDer is amazed and proud, but also very sad for them.
UGH
This needs to be circulated - “America First” is not a new concept, and it’s being used exactly as it was when it first rolled out.
OMG. !!
Big demonstration going on in NYC
Fabulous!!
I love this, meta!! Thanks for posting it. What a role model for his son.
It’s too sweet!!
Fabulousssssssssssssss….Indeed!
No Nazis here 🙄
LOL.
Luckovich FTW again.
He never forgets the little details - Miller trying to down-low that ‘White Power’ sign. I remember when he, Cassandra Fairbanks (former Bernie or Buster) and some other white-wingers all did those fake “OK” poses in the WH press briefing room. Arrogant, racist little shits.

Ahem! White trash…😂
