President Lyndon B. Johnson once said, "If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you."

Things don't always work out in the NFL. Sometimes there are injuries, and other times, players just have bad seasons. Those things give way to the comebacks,

Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring.

They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died.

France also gave us this land as American soil.

My campaign office unfortunately has to hire security as an individual is regularly vandalizing it.

This is in addition to a Republican calling our office the “Home of Hezbollah”.

Security is an unplanned expense but we want this to be a safe place. If you’re able, help us offset the costs below ⬇️

The Rockies have 8 wins in their first 50 games. Colorado is on pace to win less than 30 games. A travesty.

Trump wont say who will be attending his meme-coin all-access VIP dinner because it’s on his “personal time.”

He’s the “President”. He doesn’t punch a time card and magically stop having that job.
If he’s meeting with Kim Jong Un or Kanye f’ng West, the American people have a right to know.

This is dumb. And continues this bizarre trend of treating Dak Prescott like he’s Tyrod Taylor.
Give me Trubisky at 5M over Dak at 60M. You will have a better chance to win with Mitch, assuming you spend the extra money well

There was another plane crash in San Diego today.

This is why you don’t take a victory lap your first fucking day in office after firing hundreds of people responsible for aviation safety while blaming “DEI madness” in the process. 🤨

This may sound petty, but another thing I truly hate about this stupid Jake Tapper book is its title. Outside of the religious context, the term "original sin" has been used in US history to talk about chattel slavery, this nation's original sin at founding. How dare he appropriate it for this!?!?

My mother was born 54 days after the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was signed into law. My dad who’s slightly older, hadn’t even turned 2 yet. Both parents alive and well.
