Frederick Douglass, July 5, 1852: “There is not a nation on the earth guilty of practices, more shocking and bloody, than are the people of these United States, at this very hour.”

Frederick Douglass, July 5, 1852: “your prayers and hymns, your sermons and thanksgivings, with all your religious parade, and solemnity, are, to him, mere bombast, fraud, deception, impiety, and hypocrisy — a thin veil to cover up crimes which would disgrace a nation of savages.”

Frederick Douglass, July 5, 1852: “your boasted liberty, an unholy license; your national greatness, swelling vanity; your sounds of rejoicing are empty and heartless; your denunciations of tyrants, brass fronted impudence; your shouts of liberty and equality, hollow mockery;”

Frederick Douglass, July 5, 1852: “What, to the American slave, is your 4th of July? I answer: a day that reveals to him, more than all other days in the year, the gross injustice and cruelty to which he is the constant victim. To him, your celebration is a sham;”

My prayers are with President Joe Biden, First Lady Dr. Jill Biden and their family. God bless President Joe Biden and his family. President Biden is a fighter. Fight on, Joe. Much love to him, Jill and their entire family.

A Nightly Reid: what is America without us? As American democracy falls apart, those who aren't actively emigrating are digging in for the fight, while the maga regime deletes all but the herrenvolk

“At the same time, the anger we’re seeing among white Americans, as they begin to lose the supports, jobs and benefits that some who voted for Trump presumably thought would only be ripped away from Black and brown people, is palpable…”

A Nightly Reid: what is America without us? As American democracy falls apart, those who aren't actively emigrating are digging in for the fight, while the maga regime deletes all but the herrenvolk

“What’s change in recent years is that the resentment today isn’t just against Black people (and undocumented immigrants, whose own Latino communities can clearly be flipped against them, through the belief that their proximity to whiteness will protect them and their families from ICE)…”

A Nightly Reid: what is America without us? As American democracy falls apart, those who aren't actively emigrating are digging in for the fight, while the maga regime deletes all but the herrenvolk

“Whiteness has been the most powerful invention in the history of the Western world. Once it existed…a certain percentage of people who claimed whiteness or had it (or proximity to it) bestowed on them, could almost instantly be induced to vote against even their own benefits…”

A Saturday Reid: the Ides of March Chuck Schumer leads ten should-be opposition Senators in rendering America's most vulnerable unto Caeser.

“Schumer clearly has convinced himself that he did the right thing by the federal government … or maybe just his and Kirsten Gillibrand’s Wall Street donors … but clearly all he has really done is unify various factions of the Democratic Party, inside and outside of Washington, against him.”

A Saturday Reid: the Ides of March Chuck Schumer leads ten should-be opposition Senators in rendering America's most vulnerable unto Caeser.

“Pointedly, Schumer’s fellow Brooklynite, Rep. Jeffries, refused to throw a lifeline, responding to a reporter’s shouted question of whether there should be new Senate leadership with a clipped two word answer: “next question.””

A Saturday Reid: the Ides of March Chuck Schumer leads ten should-be opposition Senators in rendering America's most vulnerable unto Caeser.

“Defying nearly unanimous House Democrats, led by their leader, Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, Schumer led 8…Democratic Senators + independent Angus King to break his own party’s filibuster of the House-passed continuing resolution to fund the government through September, clearing the way for its passage.”

No excuses.

Stop capitulating, kowtowing and giving up the power that you have. Don’t obey in advance. Elected officials represent us and our interests and we want Dems to fight and get in some good trouble.

I don’t expect anything good from Republicans but I expect Democrats to fight fascism & autocracy at all times. I’m so disappointed in some of our Democratic elected officials that have no fight, no courage & no strength. Some have abdicated their responsibilities & are failing to meet the moment.

💯

An absolute shame.
