Mr. Trump would have us either forget, or never know. That the first person to lose their life in the Revolutionary War was Black.
Let that sink in. 🙏🏾💯
@Jeff_Ermann Absolutely. Our fans are the whiners! 🐢🏀The guy knows how to leverage. For the players #1. Fans next.
How many of our “sit on their ass fans are 4 digit donors. In my book, with out the 💰 shut up see what happens. Fan since the 60s. . .
We are Americans.
We are the most powerful nation on the planet.
What defines us is not our power to dominate the weak.
What demonstrates our character is not our capacity to traumatize the afflicted.
What speaks our truth is not how we taunt, deride or belittle the embattled, broken or battered.
We are:
The country of the Marshall Plan
The nation of The Berlin Airlift
The nation whose leader said, “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall.”
We are at our best when we are resolute against evil -- not when we kowtow to those who perpetrate it.
We tell our truth when we defend the weak -- not when we do it only if we get protection money.
We are America when our leaders call the dictators dictators and those who fight to defend democracy against tyranny what they are: heroes.
Donald Trump and JD Vance didn't show strength today -- they showed weakness.
They belittled a giant and showed just how small they are.
They have the most vaunted titles in the world: President and Vice President of The United States of America. But the title doesn't make the man. And today both men brought shame to their titles.
A weary warrior was before them. A beleaguered man who has lost thousands of his friends and comrades to the unjust and illegal aggression of an authoritarian leader.
They showed no grace; no magnanimity of spirit; no diplomatic acumen. They were small bullies with big titles and they disrespected the history and legacy of the nation they lead.
Today, Donald Trump acted more like Russia's Putin than America's President.
BREAKING: Trump’s new minted Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, who promised Congress he had his drinking “under control” during his confirmation is already taking swigs of bourbon at a NATO presser earlier this week. The guy is an alcoholic & shouldn’t be leading our military!
Harry Stewart Jr., a decorated World War II pilot and one of the last surviving Tuskegee Airmen, has died. He was 100 years old.
After the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor, Stewart enlisted as soon as he turned 18. He joined what was considered an experiment to train Black pilots in Tuskegee, Alabama.
Stewart went on to fly 43 combat missions. He earned the Distinguished Flying Cross for downing three German aircraft during a single dogfight. Stewart retired as a lieutenant colonel in 1950, but later returned to the skies to give rides to aspiring young pilots.
“I did not recognize at the time the gravity of what we are facing. I just felt as though it was a duty of mine at the time. I just stood up to my duty,” Stewart told CNN during an interview about World War II in 2024.

You should print out your Social Security Statement. Elon and who knows how many countless others now have access to your private information, so it'd be wise to have a record of it.
Spiked beverages are looking a lot like their regular counterparts. With more soft drink brands introducing alcohol products, it's easy to get confused. In Michigan, the legislature is taking steps to help avoid accidental consumption by nondrinkers.
