New Orleans elected a Black man, but the governor eliminated his position, denying him a seat. Where have we seen this before?
In November 1868, John Willis Menard became the first Black person elected to the U.S. House of Representatives winning Louisiana’s 2nd Congressional District. White people prevented him from taking office.
The only Black governor of Louisiana, P.B.S.. Pinchback, was elected to the U.S. Senate in 1873 but was denied his seat.
Good question, great answer.
I always say that the people who are closest to the problem are closest to the solution and that’s exactly the culture shift we’re seeing right now across Baltimore.
Democrats are smoking Donald Trump and Republican extremists throughout the country.
Enough with the premature obituaries.
The Democratic Party is back.
Tonight, Congress will vote to lower the age to prosecute minors as adults from 16 down to 14 in DC.
Let me get this straight:
Congress wants to prosecute 14 yr. olds as adults, but they don’t want to prosecute adults who sexually abuse 14 year olds?
Release the Epstein files.
Once you see the sheer scale of the genocide and horrific destruction you understand why news networks like the CBC were pressured into not airing their own footage
"But Iran says death to America"
Im sure they fucking do.. Do you know how many countries we have bombed and invaded in the last 50 years?!
Vietnam "false flag" Iraq "WMDs" Afghanistan "saudis" Syria "chemical weapons" now isis party ground.
I wonder fucking why
I’m sorry. If you don’t get paid vacation from work, you live in a third world country.
If you don’t get basic healthcare free, you live in a third world country.
If you don’t get paid maternity and paternity leave, if you don’t get paid from work and the government when you’re off sick, then you live in a third world country.
If your government doesn’t force employers to give you a contract after a trial period so your employer has certain rights to uphold when it comes to loyalty back to you as a worker, so you feel safe and secure when you work hard, then you live in a third world country.
These are the very basics we come to expect In Europe and The U.K. This is the very least we will accept.
This year I have 52 paid vacation days off from work. This would not include paid sick days, time for doctor’s appointments or paid time off for looking after my child or taking them to the doctors. Some employees like mine pay a little extra for working from home, for electric, for internet and aditional money for food for when I work. We have very good free education. Americans travel to Europe just for the free universities to study without drowning in debt whilst living in the most beautiful cities. These universities that for some subjects are the best in the world.
It is physically illegal for my employer to contact me on my day off or outside of my contracted working hours.
Some of these things which can vary country to country in Europe are the very basics of what we expect living in a European country. The very minimum.
Yet we get told by MAGA that we live wrong, and we should change our values, and that America represents freedom. And we should follow what this government administration wants.
What is it to be free? Just to be allowed to have guns? To protect what? To protect yourself from your government?
The truth is sadly, that there is no Freedom in America. I say these things above so Americans know what you should demand from your leaders, because none of the above is taught to you.
Now this is the Truth you need to hear:
For education America is 13th in reading, 18th in science, 37th in math among 79 countries.
College debt is over $1.7 trillion and average borrower owes $30,000+.
America has the highest incarceration rate in the world….
You have around 25% of the whole world’s prisoners, but only 4% of the global population….
Over 2 million people currently incarcerated in the U.S.
You have the most expensive healthcare system globally, yet it ranks #30 in overall health care.
U.S. has higher infant mortality and lower life expectancy than many developed nations by far.
1 in 7 American children live in poverty. Roughly 11 million children
90% of your wealth is with 1% of people.
America has over 40,000 gun-related deaths annually.
And even for tech… The U.S. ranks 13th–20th in internet speed globally.
Why would they tell you what you are missing?
Why would they tell you what you should demand and expect as tax paying citizens…
Seek Freedom, Seek Real Freedom. Not the Freedom They Sold You.
The one they sold to you wasn’t free.
Thank you America, thank you for your support, thank you for this visit. Thank you @POTUS, Congress, and the American people.
Ukraine needs just and lasting peace, and we are working exactly for that.
In his push for private school vouchers, Gov. Greg Abbott has repeatedly emphasized he has no intention of harming Texas public schools.
But this week, Abbott acknowledged that his priority policy would in fact result in public schools losing money. https://t.co/TkbR1Nh7Tc
