Pretending to be the arbiter of who treats the black community well is a bold move for a guy whose dad was arrested at a klan rally and who, along with his dad, was sued by Nixon's DOJ for systematically discriminating against prospective black tenants
The same guy who ran ads in major newspapers calling on New York to "bring back the death penalty" to execute five black and brown kids for a crime they were later proven not to have committed.

The guy who, to this day, says they were were guilty.
They guy who was, for years, the face of the birther conspiracy

Trump in 2020: Bloomberg is illegally self-funding his campaign!

Trump in 2016: "I'm the only one that's self-funding my campaign!"
Trump used to spin his own personal wealth as a plus in 2016, repeatedly claiming that he might spend $1 billion if he needed to desmoinesregister.com/story/news/ele…
By the end of the campaign, Trump was saying he had spent $100 million self-funding his campaign. In reality, he gave his campaign $66.1 million, and the campaign, in turn, paid his businesses $12.8 million. opensecrets.org/trump/trump-pr…

Reminder: The person seen here talking about "illegal campaign contributions" is the same person whose longtime personal lawyer is currently in prison for illegal campaign contributions prosecutors said he carried out "in coordination with and at the direction of Individual-1"

And for those out there thinking "Well you have to prove that he knowingly and willfully violated the law," I would remind you that Trump has a deep knowledge of campaign finance law, and he liked to brag about it on TV.

The worst lesson we could possibly learn right now about ethics and accountability is that if a president personally and flagrantly profits from his office and openly abuses his power on a daily basis, then people will get used to it and start to see it as normal.
Imagine if we learned about everything—the hush-money payments to porn stars, the solicitations of foreign assistance, the personal profiteering, security clearances for his children, the misconduct of his cabinet, and so on—all at once. Our heads would explode.
And by "our," I mean pretty much everyone. There would be so little room for any sane person to deny how dangerous and unbefitting of the office of the president this kind of conduct is.

When @realDonaldTrump says "Make America Great Again" a lot of people wonder what he's talking about. But using my detective skills and looking through history, I believe I've finally narrowed down the exact day Donald Trump thinks America was "great."
If America was ever great, it would have to be sometime between 1776 (when America was founded) and 2015, when he first started using the phrase. I know that seems like a large span of time, but you always have to start at the beginning.
From there, I had to use deductive reasoning to figure out a few things. It seems reasonable to assume that there is NO WAY America could ever be great if there were no Trump's here. So I looked up when Trump's family first arrived in the U.S.

#DOJ internal investigation reveals that an #FBI special agent—who interviewed @GenFlynn and was supervisor of #CrossfireHurricane—played key role in problematic #FISA application.

Article by Jeff Carlson @themarketswork (Thread👇) theepochtimes.com/fbi-agent-who-…
One of the special @FBI agents who interviewed Lt. @GenFlynn at the @WhiteHouse in Jan 2017 played a much bigger role in the #FBI’s #CrossfireHurricane counterintelligence investigation than previously assumed, the #HorowitzReport reveals. justice.gov/storage/120919…
@FBI @GenFlynn @WhiteHouse The agent was first introduced into the public in a May 11, 2018 letter from Sen. @ChuckGrassley, who was inquiring about the @FBI’s interview with @GenFlynn.

My 43 #goals for the #43rdParliament #canpoli #cdnpoliKeep your promises
1.Work with Opposition not in opposition
2.Change Minister for Women and Gender Equality to Minister of Women and Gender Equity. Equality and equity are not the same thing.
3. Remove the Rural Economic Development component from the Minister for Women and Gender. It should stand alone or be added to Agriculture.
4. 42nd Parliament goal=Women & Gender should stand alone. When considering intersecting identities, the Minister has plenty on her plate
5.Increase the number of Black people in Cabinet.
6.Increase the number of Black people in Governor-in-Council appointments.
7.Name an experienced Black individual to head the new Anti-Racism Secretariat within the Department of Canadian Heritage.

Oh, and would you f***ing look at that. The Kurds DID help us win World War 2. First as part of the counter-offensive to the Nazi-backed Iraqi coup of 1941. Later, some served in Albania, Italy and Greece.

Meanwhile Fred Trump apparently never got drafted en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iraq_Levi…
The Iraq Levies were an Allied WW2 force largely composed of Assyrian, Kurdish, Armenian, Turkman and Yazidi soldiers. All ethnic groups, I might add, represented in the Syrian Democratic Forces, the anti-ISIS coalition that Trump just betrayed.
There's a tremendous erased history of colonial soldiers serving in WW2. Indian, Arab, African soldiers in large numbers all contributed to the liberation of Axis territory including Europe in frontline combat.

But forgotten because they served under French & British flags.

Homosexual Pedophiles are preying on Nigerian boys , I was nearly sodomized twice as a kid , my baby brother too. Not many boys are as lucky . Men don’t tell their stories. Usually too ashamed to admit it .
Thread
Recently I posted about how I was molested by a much older female who was my Mom’s student in the early 80s. Many people thought “but you enjoyed it na “ just because I am male . I explain that my intention was just to cast our mind to ever ignored male sexual experiences
Those girls had orgies with innocent me , sometimes 3 , 4 or more of them against just me . I ended up only with a painful penis cause there nothing to ejaculate . The worst could have happened. I could have contracted STDs , there where many cases of syphilis and gonorrhea

Today is #WorldKidneyDay, so here is a thread about living on #dialysis & #OrganDonation. My name is Belinda Otas. I’m #African. I’m #Nigerian. I'm #Benin. I’m #British & I’m #Black. Beyond the nationalities or passports with my name, I also believe in our shared humanity.
I was 16, when I was diagnosed with End Stage Renal Failure (ESRF.) I had no idea what was happening to me because at the time, it made no sense. However, I remember the pain of that period like noonday. I lived on dialysis until i was 22. #dialysis #OrganDonation #renalhealth
It took over my teenage years. I don’t remember having much of a life as a teenager because dialysis was 3x a week & every session was 4hrs. Add the time it takes to recover from being exhausted by the process, my day was pretty much over. #dialysis #OrganDonation #renalhealth
