OMG People! If you don't listen to any other take on what Trump said last night, and I've posted several, as have many people, you've got to listen to this one. Mitch Jackson is a trial lawyer and what he's saying makes sense and is the most frightening thing I think I've ever heard.

Okay... I love this lady. We need to amplify this video

WALKING MAGA

[MAGA Cult Slayer @MAGACult2]

MAGA politicians taking credit for Joe Biden’s legislation is lower than low. Especially when they voted against it and now try to take a victory lap.

Maria, you just got COOKED! 🔥

[Andrew—#IAmTheResistance @AmoneyResists]

This is what every MAGA who is finally done supporting Trump and wonders why we aren’t applauding them fails to grasp

The Kennedy Memorial is made of irreplaceable marble that was gifted by Italy.

Matisse tapestries found throughout were gifted from France.

The massive starburst chandelier in the Opera Hall, and lights along walkways, were a gift from Sweden.

The record-breaking stage curtains were a gift from Japan. They had to build special looms to weave them because of how big they are.

The grounds are beautiful with displays of art.

This is what Trump is destroying.

MAGA hasn’t thought this whole Islamophobia thing through

Did you know?

After 9/11, the Maasai people from a Kenyan village gave 14 cows to help and support the U.S.

This is the story behind the fact.

After the tragic events of 9/11, the Maasai community in Kenya, inspired by one of their own, Wilson Kimeli Naiyomah, who was in the U.S. at the time, decided to gift 14 cows to America. This act was not just symbolic but deeply rooted in Maasai culture where cows are considered sacred, representing life and wealth.

For the Maasai, giving cows is one of the highest forms of respect and sympathy. This gesture was not just about material aid but was a profound expression of empathy and solidarity with the American people.

The cows were handed over in a ceremony attended by William Brancick, the deputy head of the U.S. embassy in Kenya. This event took place in a remote village near the Tanzanian border, marked by traditional Maasai attire and banners expressing condolences.

Initially, there was uncertainty about how to handle the gift logistically. The idea of shipping the cows to America was considered impractical due to health regulations and the nature of the gift. Instead, it was decided that the cows would remain in Kenya, cared for by the Maasai on behalf of the U.S.

The cows were not only kept in Kenya but their care and the proceeds from any sales were used for community benefits, like education. Over time, the herd grew, symbolizing the enduring nature of the gift. This act led to a unique cultural exchange where the Maasai's gesture was commemorated through art and literature, notably in the children's book "14 Cows for America."

This event, while small in scale, has become a symbol of global unity and kindness, often cited in discussions about international relations, cultural exchange, and human solidarity in the face of tragedy.

Periodistas despedidos del histórico The Washington Post por Jeff Bezos, han creado un nuevo periódico para luchar contra la desinformación y los bulos de la era Trump.

La era donde las élites millonarias quieren controlar el mundo. No hay que rendirse.

Let’s all make someone feel human today. This is an important video to watch and sit with for a minute.

[The Recount @therecount]

Trump promised $5,000 to every American if Republicans win the House and Senate in the midterms — a proposal that would cost more than $1.3 trillion.

Since he returned to office, he has promised Americans stimulus checks at least 3 other times. None have materialized.
