1/ Happy #Juneteenth folks, it’s the day when Blacks in #Texas learned that they were free, June 19, 1865 in #Galveston.

But what does today mean?

2/ It’s the day when Blacks found out that the first Republican President had signed the Emancipation Proclamation freeing them from the physical bondage of the Democrat Party.

3/ It was two years later, on July 4th 1867, that 150 of those same Black men met in Houston and established the Republican Party of Texas. @TheDemocrats, in response, established the Ku Klux Klan.

4/ Today, the Democrats are economically enslaving Blacks and have turned inner city communities into modern plantations of welfare and economic dependence.

5/ Juneteenth is a celebration of why the Republican Party was established in 1854, the abolition of slavery. Only a flaming incompetent idiot would give the Party of the Jackass any credit for Juneteenth.
