You can't understand 1776 if you don't understand 1619. July 4, 1776 when the colonists declared independence, 1/5 of the population of the 13 colonies was enslaved. They would not gain freedom for a century. This, too, is the 4th of July. This, too, is the story of America.

BREAKING: Biden Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg humiliates Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis on live television in front of million of CNN viewers.
It all started when the CNN host played a ridiculous campaign video produced by Ron DeSantis’ presidential campaign in which Ron DeSantis brags about his fascist war against LGBTQ+ Floridians as background images of DeSantis and shirtless, muscular men show in the background.
CNN asked Buttigieg to respond to it, and he didn’t disappoint, declaring that, “I’m going to leave aside the strangeness of trying to prove your manhood by putting up a video that splices images of you in between oiled-up, shirtless bodybuilders, and just get to the bigger issue that is on my mind whenever I see this stuff in the policy space, which is, again: Who are you trying to help? Who are you trying to make better off? And what public policy problems do you get up in the morning thinking about how to solve? I just don’t understand the mentality of somebody who gets up in the morning thinking that he’s going to prove his worth by competing over who can make life hardest for a hard-hit community that is already so vulnerable in America.”
Well said, Pete! Wannabe “alpha male” Ron DeSantis is a joke — and he deserves to be ridiculed. The fact remains that DeSantis will NEVER be half the man that Pete Buttigieg is.

🔥🔥🔥 HOLY SHIT: Speaker Pelosi just TORCHED Republicans on the House Floor.
Here’s what happened.👇
Speaker Pelosi accused Republicans of turning the House of Representatives “into a puppet show” during debate for a resolution to censure Rep. Adam Schiff.
“Today we are on the floor of the House, where the other side has turned this body, this chamber – where slavery was abolished, where Medicare and social security and everything were instituted – they’ve turned it into a puppet show. A puppet show,” Pelosi said on the floor of the House during debate.
“And you know what?” Pelosi added. “The puppeteer, Donald Trump, is shining a light on the strings. You look miserable.”
On the floor of the House, Pelosi called Schiff “one of the greatest members” of the body.
“The only advantage to all of this is that instead of reversing what we did on the [Inflation Reduction Act] to save the planet, or reverse what we did to reduce the cost of prescription drugs, you’re wasting time,” Pelosi said.
Speaker Pelosi isn’t playing around! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Who else loves when she takes the gloves off? 💙
These are my teammates. We are Olympic champions. Three of us tried to give birth. Two of us experienced near-death complications. One of us died. We have to, and we will do more. Tori’s death cannot and will not be in vain.

TWEEPS: Most of us have worked our entire lives with Social Security funds taken from our paychecks.
Republicans want us to have to wait until we're 69 to get those funds.
Can we get 1,000 fast RTs and replies to get #HandsOffSocialSecurity trending?
Please and thank you. 🙏 💪
BREAKING: An unhinged conservative husband and wife interrupt an elementary school track-and-field meet, accuse a 9-year old girl with short hair of being a boy, and demand that the young girl produce her birth certificate in the middle of the race or be disqualified.
But it gets worse…
After the bigoted couple was asked to leave, the wife began accusing the young girl’s lesbian mothers of being “groomers,” “pedophiles,” and “genital mutilators” in front of everyone — causing the traumatized young girl to break down sobbing in tears and shaking.
They refused to leave, and eventually the police had to be called in.
One of the young girl’s mothers filed a report with the local police about the incident, declaring that, “This is absolutely a hate crime. It is a direct result of this right-wing propaganda that has become so rampant in our media.”
In response to the incident, the Central Okanagan School District says that “the persons who accosted the student and family were not from one of our Central Okanagan Public Schools. In response, the District has worked with other local schools to identify the persons and we are taking steps to formally ban them from any District property or events.“
Please retweet and ❤️ if you think that the bigoted couple MUST be arrested immediately and charged with a hate crime — and consider joining and investing in Tribel, a “woke” new bigotry-free Twitter competitor that is currently doing a round of equity crowdfunding and just blew past $1 million raised from 2,500 of its users. The money will be used to continue to grow Tribel into a kind, accepting Twitter competitor that’s the opposite of Musk’s MAGA Twitter.

2/2 Family & friends call her Shay. They wear t-shirts with her image & wear worry on their faces. They hope someone recognizes her. @PhillyPolice hope so too. Shay was last seen at her grandmother’s home in the 4600 block of Fairmount Ave. in West Philadelphia.
