This is Albie. He was so touched by his family singing happy birthday in his native language that he didn't notice the cupcakes with his face on them. 13/10 hbd Albie #SeniorPupSaturday (TT: _sallyv)

Black people are not allowed to talk amongst themselves without white people feeling its their duty to police those conversations. The response from white people to this statement by Kamala Harris is an example. Those responses to her statement are also a glowing example of hit dogs hollering.

People need to be quiet and listen to the entirety of what she said, but also take the time to listen to the entire Celebration of Life for Reverend Jackson. I was inspired and moved, and I understand via the context of the event.

"War is mankind's most tragic and stupid folly; to seek or advise its deliberate provocation is a black crime against all men. Though you follow the trade of the warrior, you do so in the spirit of Washington -- not of Genghis Khan. For Americans, only threat to our way of life justifies resort to conflict."
Graduation Exercises at the United States
Military Academy, 6/3/47
"Possibly my hatred of war blinds me so that I cannot comprehend the arguments they adduce. But, in my opinion, there is no such thing as a preventive war.
Although this suggestion is repeatedly made, none has yet explained how war prevents war. Worse than this, no one has been able to explain away the fact that war creates the conditions that beget war."
Remarks at Carnegie Institute, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, 10/19/50 [DDE's Pre-Presidential Papers, Principal File, Box

Was browsing the Eisenhower Library site this morning trying to find a quote I remembered.

President Eisenhower, WW2 military hero:

β€œIn my opinion, there is no such thing as a preventive war… none has yet explained how war prevents war.”

They should do themselves a favor and listen to her entire remarks (let alone the entire remembrance, which was inspiring). They might learn something.

If you have not had an opportunity, I highly recommend watching the service for Jesse Jackson. Not just the most well-known speakers. Is doing wonders for my mood. Thank you once again Rev. Jackson for your life and your work. What a legacy.

People who’ve never been to a Black funeral, far less a Black politician and civil rights leader’s funeral, are showing their entire asses once again, down to deep in the crack.

I'm the only Democrat who has won a statewide race β€” not once, but twice β€” in the last 20 years.

Maine people know me. They know that unlike Susan Collins, I've got the backbone to stand up to the President, and that I'll always put them first.

White House: the witness’sΒ allegations are β€œcompletely baseless” and β€œbacked by zero credible evidence.”

Fact: FBI found her credible enough to interview repeatedly, and she received a financial settlement from the Epstein estate.

Pete Hegseth makes me long for a dignified sloppy drunk like John Boehner.

If the Biden/Harris administration didn’t do anything progressive, why are there so many progressive Biden/Harris policies for Republicans to strike down or repeal?

This post of full of pissed off leftists who don’t know how we conduct Black funerals so they’re being predictably racist toward VP Harris, anti Black and standard pieces of shit.

Most are hiding behind cartoon and anime avis… of course

Our troops are dying this isn’t a video game. The White House is posting so-called β€œhype” videos that mix real footage from the war in Iran with clips from movies and video games like Call of Duty. It’s an absolute disgrace.

Were they tubas or IEDs? Drummers or suicide bombers? Conductors or terror leaders? Apparently someone passed shitty intel that convinced Hegseth and the NSC team it was the latter for all three.

Team Trump, getting us from unreliable intel to kinetic actions to war crimes. Heckuva job, Petey.

OK! Graham Platner's mother, Leslie Harlow, seems to have married (and divorced) a Jewish man named Joel Frantzman. So far, this is the most Jewish thing in Graham Platner's lineage. Joel's son with another woman, Seth Frantzman, is a journalist based in Israel.

Anna Sale: When news came out about your tattooβ€”the skull-and-crossbones design that resembles Nazi imageryβ€”you said it was fed from people researching your background who wanted to discredit you. Do you understand it to have come from national Democrats?

Graham Platner: We have our suspicions. The governor announced the campaign on a Tuesday and all of the negative stories began to drop Wednesday, Thursday, Friday of that week. You don’t have to do a lot of deep thinking to find connections there.

Here's his big "accusation:" That he "suspects" the DSCC "fed" the story about the Nazi tattoo to the media to "discredit" him.

As if the fact that HE HAD A LARGE NAZI SS TOTENKOPF TATTOO ON HIS CHEST FOR 18 YEARS was something which they should have kept mum about.

Reverend Al Sharpton has sharp, yet necessary, words for the crowd at the memorial for Rev. Jesse Jackson.

"Don't sit here so holy and sanctified and act like you have no assignment yourself."

OMG! This is our President. Our troops, as well as our country, are fucked.
I want the press to ask every single Republican congressional representative & Senator about this. Cue up the clip for them on your phone & make them watch.
