DHS cut this quote off one sentence early. Here’s how Roosevelt actually finished the thought, same speech, 1915:
“But if he is heartily and singly loyal to this Republic, then no matter where he was born, he is just as good an American as any one else.”
He also said he wasn’t talking about naturalized citizens (“some of the very best Americans I have ever known”) and that “any discrimination against aliens is a wrong.”
Teddy Roosevelt’s descendants asked Congress to protect his legacy. Trump’s admin answered by perverting TR’s words to push their anti-immigrant agenda.
I am officially nominating Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) for the Nobel Peace Prize.
No President in History has ended the same war so many times.
Our Dear Leader has ended the war with Iran at least 38 times by CNN’s count.
No President has ever done this before.
And he is nowhere near finished ending it.
It’s a record worthy of the Nobel committee’s recognition. Thank you for your attention to this matter!
Respectfully, the trailblazers already blazed the trail.
Danielle Lawrie, Monica Abbott, Cat Osterman, Kelly Kretschman, and others carried professional softball through years of unstable leagues, limited television exposure, modest pay, and even the loss of Olympic softball. They kept playing, kept promoting the game, and kept themselves elite long enough to bridge the sport into this new era.
Then came the next generation with the likes of Rachel Garcia, Montana Fouts, Megan Faraimo, Hannah Flippen, Sis Bates, Maya Brady, and many more. They helped drive the explosion in visibility, attendance, ratings, sponsorships, and fan engagement that made today's opportunities possible.
Nija Canady is an extraordinary talent. She may very well become one of the defining players of her generation.
But AUSL is two years old. The league is offering $25,000-$75,000 salaries for a 25-game season, backed by MLB, ESPN, ABC, and major sponsors. The #2 pick in a draft of 17 holding out while established veterans and proven stars have already signed and taken the field feels less like pioneering and more like posturing.
all of the fake Hunter Biden fans on the timeline who were bashing him 6 months ago are making me sick. I've been a believer since day 1. a true patriot, a fellow fiend, a truth seeker. he simply lived a lifestyle we all dreamed of and the Haters were envious
