Hey Argo, I just saw this on a QVC 40th anniversary promo. It was in an ad from 1986 about all the various products available on QVC when they launched their new network. Elvis is and always was everywhere!!

He understood the assignment.🔥

BREAKING: JFK's only grandson Jack Schlossberg incinerates Republicans for trying to rename the prestigious Kennedy Center's Opera House after First Lady Melania Trump, says that Trump is "obsessed with being bigger than JFK."

He refuses to stand by as MAGA tarnishes his family's legacy...

"A nation reveals itself not only by the men it produces — but also by the men it honors, the men it remembers,” Schlossberg wrote on Instagram, quoting his late grandfather.

"JFK believed the arts made our country great and could be our most effective weapon in the fight for civil rights and against authoritarian governments around the world," he continued.

"He took political heat for it at the time — for inviting black artists to the White House, like the Staples Singers. For supporting black Americans like Harry Belafonte and James Baldwin on global tours to showcase the best of our society," he went on.

"Pablo Cassals, a symbol of resistance to fascism, played for President Kennedy. Yo-yo Ma did too… when he was just 6 years old. Robert Frost performed at JFK’s inaugural. The Mona Lisa came and visited the WH," wrote Schlossberg.

"The Trump Administration stands for freedom of oppression, not expression. He uses his awesome powers to suppress free expression and instill fear. But this isn’t about the arts."

"Trump is obsessed with being bigger than JFK, with minimizing the many heroes of our past, as if that elevates him. It doesn’t," he added."

"But there’s hope — art lasts forever, and no one can change what JFK and our shared history stands for," he concluded.

Yesterday, Republicans on the House Appropriations Committee shamelessly approved an amendment to the interior, environment, and related agencies annual spending bill that would mutilate the reputation of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts' opera house by changing its name to the "First Lady Melania Trump Opera House.”

The effort is a blatant attempt on the part of Republican politicians to pander to the MAGA cult leader. It's especially pathetic given the fact that Melania has not a single real accomplishment to her name. History will remember her as the cowardly woman who enabled her husband's fascism by remaining silent as his anti-democratic abuses escalated.

Please retweet and ❤️ if you oppose the renaming!

BREAKING NEWS:

Judge John Coughenour came out with the following statement after issuing a preliminary injunction on Trumps executive order for ending birthright citizenship.

"It has become ever more apparent that to our president, the rule of law is but an impediment to his policy goals.

The rule of law is, according to him, something to navigate around or simply ignore, whether that be for political or personal gain…

There are moments in the world's history where people look back and ask, ‘Where were the lawyers, where were the judges?" Coughenour said.

"In these moments, the rule of law becomes especially vulnerable. I refuse to let that beacon go dark today."

Thank you, Judge Coughenour!

RT if you agree with him! 💙

@Andy @BravoTV please, please, please put Dr Heavenly from @MarriedToMedTV on pause. She's way too messy and the whole group would be better served if she was finally held accountable for her hateful words. She confuses shade with just behind mean.
