BREAKING: MAGA world erupts in rage as American hero Harriet Tubman is finally awarded the rank of One-Star Brigadier General in the Maryland National Guard.

And it gets so much better...

"Today we celebrate one of the greatest authors of the American story," said Maryland's Democratic Governor Wes Moore at a Veterans Day ceremony. Dozens of veterans and generals attended the event at the Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad State Park.

The historic bestowing of rank comes roughly 160 years after Harriet Tubman bravely led Union troops as they raided Combahee Ferry in South Carolina — resulting in the freeing of over 700 slaves.

In addition to being an abolitionist, Tubman served in the Union Army as a nurse and later as a spy and scout.

Not surprisingly, Trump supporters are flooding social media with their rage, insisting that Tubman doesn't deserve her new rank. As usual, the motivation is pure unadulterated racism.

At a time when America's future seems uncertain and racist forces are once again ascendent in our political landscape, it's important that we remember heroes like Tubman. Her belief in a better future should inspire us to fight for the same.

Please retweet and ❤️ if you fully support granting Harriet Tubman the rank of general — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a new pro-democracy social network that is exploding in popularity because Twitter and Facebook are trying to stop its growth — which is only making Tribel grow even faster.

BREAKING: Top North Carolina newspaper shreds Donald Trump for his "shameful" spreading of dangerous "falsehoods" about the federal response to Hurricane Helene to smear Kamala Harris.

This is spreading like wildfire and MAGA is furious...

"This is not a situation to capitalize on for political gain. But former President Donald Trump has politicized the situation at every turn, spreading falsehoods and conspiracies that fracture the community instead of bringing it together," wrote the editorial board of The Charlotte Observer.

"By every indication, state and federal agencies have been working to help people in need. They’ve been airlifting food and other supplies to affected areas," they added.

The Observer tore into Trump's lie that Democratic officials are "going out of their way to not help people in Republican areas" as well as his false claim that Harris "spent all her FEMA money, billions of dollars, on housing for illegal migrants."

"There’s no evidence to support any of those ridiculous claims," the newspaper stated simply.

"Let’s be clear: Western North Carolina is not a political football. This is not a campaign opportunity," the editorial board continued. "The most unhelpful thing any politician — or anyone else — can do right now is spread misinformation and tell people that their government isn’t doing anything to help them."

"Sowing the seeds of political division is always an unnecessary and tiresome endeavor," they went on. "But doing so in times of great need, when unity is paramount, is particularly shameful."

BREAKING: President Biden scores a huge surprise win as the Supreme Court rules in favor of his administration's rules that cut methane and mercury emissions fueling climate change.

MAGA is raging about this one...

While the court didn't uphold the environmental regulations outright, it ruled that the admin is allowed to enforce them while underlying legal challenges are decided — which could take years.

Republicans in some two dozen states implored the Supreme Court to block the EPA's methane rule (a wholly unsurprising move given the fact that MAGA is owned by the fossil fuel companies).

The EPA has estimated that the rule will cut methane emissions from oil and gas by close to 80% through 2038, a huge win for the planet and the future generations who will inhabit it.

The mercury rule requires some coal-fired plants to lower now only mercury emissions, but others such as arsenic and chromium.

Meanwhile, Donald Trump insists that climate change is a “hoax” and will continue shoveling money to corporations while the world burns.

@rwsimonetti X Ryan…I do agree with you but the prospects of getting something sensible done via our government are slim. Justice Scalia screwed us all with his non-sensical decision on the Heller case - bestowing an imaginary personal right to bear arms via the 2nd Am. 💔
