So...the current administration and its collaborators in state governments want to pretend that parts of American history that don't "uplift" are bad and pretend they didn't happen?
You're going to hear ALL about it!

Slavery wasn't bad - it was an absolute horror! No amount of stupid social media posts will erase that fact! Also, keep in mind that this is nothing more than another distraction.

Where do you think the Trump Administration (probably Stephen Miller) got the idea to separate immigrant children from their families?
If you said the destruction of Black enslaved families, you are correct!
The point of destroying the family unit is the cruelty involved.

If you support the Confederacy and all that comes with it, you couldn't possibly support whitewashing the history of enslaving Black people in America. You can't have one without the other. The right to enslave Blacks was the cornerstone of the Confederacy's existence.

Is this correct?
Trump believes that if the truth about American history is taught and discussed, it is tantamount to slandering the founders of this country and not presenting an uplifting story of America?
Uh... he's in for quite a ride. True American history is here to stay.

He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.”
This is from the Declaration of Independence. As this applied to King George III in 1776, one guess as to who this applies to in this minute?
Yes, Trump. Everything old is new again.

Trump displays a lack of knowledge by using the term "regime change."
Tell him about 1953 and U.S. and British involvement in regime change in Iran. Someone should read this to him in a way that uses simple language so that he can understand.

The U.S. helped oust an Iranian regime before. Here’s what happened in 1953.
As President Trump threatens regime change in Iran, the term evokes memories of U.S. involvement in the nation more than 70 years ago. Here's what to know.

Don’t fall for the okey-doke. Trump says he will issue a pardon to Pete Rose. What did Rose serve time for?
Tax evasion.
This has no effect on Rose’s ban from the Hall of Fame. President Musk and Trump the Caddy will still come for your social security.
Stay awake, my friends.

Today is Haitian Independence Day! Have a bowl of Soup Joumou, also known as the Freedom Bowl! Soup Joumou was a delicacy reserved only for slave owners. Once Haiti became independent, eating the soup became a symbol of celebration of the successful revolution against the French.
