If you find yourself justifying Trump’s actions, explaining why his crimes aren’t crimes or, like almost every single Republican politician, promising to vote for him if he’s the candidate no matter his convictions, then you’re not patriots, so please stop acting like you are.

Ronald (left) and Carl McNair (right) were born 10 months apart in the Segregated South. The two were inseparable as toddlers and well into adulthood.

In 1959, 9-year-old Ronald McNair went to a public library in Lake City, South Carolina because he was looking for more advanced books on science. Carl accompanied his younger brother and described what happened next:

"So, as he was walking in there, all these folks were staring at him - because they were white folk only, and they were looking at him and saying, you know, 'Who is this Negro?' So, he politely positioned himself in line to check out his books. Well, this old librarian, she says, 'This library is not for coloreds.' He said, 'Well, I would like to check out these books.' She says, 'Young man, if you don't leave this library right now, I'm gonna call the police.' So he just propped himself up on the counter, and sat there, and said, 'I'll wait.'"

The police and their mother were called to the library. Despite the librarian's protest, the police officer allowed Ronald to borrow the books.

Ronald went on to get a PhD in Physics from MIT in 1976 and then soon after applied to join NASA. Carl supported his brother all the way, often in disbelief: "So how was a colored boy from South Carolina-wearing glasses, never flew a plane-how was he gonna become an astronaut?" Carl went on to say that "Ron was one who didn't accept societal norms as being his norm... That was for other people... he got to be aboard his own Starship Enterprise.”

Ronald became the second Black astronaut when he flew as a mission specialist from February 3rd to 11th, 1984. Ronald was then chosen to be one of the 7 astronauts onboard the space shuttle Challenger. He died along with six other crew members on January 28, 1986, at the age of 35.

Today, the library that refused to lend him books is now named after him.

DAMN. AP says that 64% of Americans say they will NOT vote for Trump in 2024! 🤣🤣🤣

Raise your hand sky high if you are the 64%! 🖐️

@EdKrassen If they watched the insurrection live on TV, and know that Trump sat for hours and did nothing, and they still support him, nothing will phase them. They don’t honor the constitution or the law. They support the man, not our country.

[LateBloomer💙🌻 @stellagershey]

@CalltoActivism Nope. Absolutely not. He is a danger to this country & our democracy. He needs to learn his lesson & spend some time in jail. He isn’t above the law that every American citizen must honor & obey.

[LateBloomer💙🌻 @stellagershey]

@marcorubio You’re a disgrace to this country. Shame on you for continuing your lies. You don’t deserve to serve this country since you are supporting one man, not the constitution you swore to protect or our country & democracy.

“Morgan Stanley is crediting President Joe Biden’s economic policies with driving an unexpected surge in the U.S. economy that is so significant that the bank was forced to make a “sizable upward revision” to its estimates for U.S. gross domestic product.” https://t.co/4uVzo0aE22

🚨🚨Anyone who is even thinking about voting for RFK Jr in the Democratic primary MUST watch this devastating video. They’ll learn how his blatantly false and totally irresponsible vaccine disinformation led to a horrific measles outbreak in American Samoa. That led directly to 83 deaths — mostly of young children.

RFK Jr never apologized to the families who lost their children.
