  2. When I lived in AR and needed to fly, even though Memphis was almost 2 hours closer, I’d hoof it down to Little Rock. It was the wild west there because…feelinz.

    Tolerating that is bullshit.

  3. Meanwhile in Chicago Mayor BRANDON has just signed an Executive Order this morning declaring “ICE Free Zones” which translated means Chicago Police are to arrest ICE Agents and National Guard that go into these areas. Reporters specifically asked this question several times of him and as usual he sidestepped it. This DUMBASS just refuses to understand that Federal Laws supersede any of the local crap he wants to sign. He also said there will be more declarations this afternoon. His Police Department may finally get fed up and tell him to go fuck himself knowing he can not flat out fire or place them all on leave at once. If he does the Great Chicago Fire of the late 19th century will seem to be like a scout campfire for toasting marshmallows compared that would take place now.

  4. Newsflash: There are a hell of a lot of black people who feel as he does and have felt that way. Until the stranglehold on who gets access to the media was broken they were kept secret.

    I don’t think that is entirely off the table. It wouldn’t surprise me one bit if The Prickster decided he could somehow pull a Gavin Newsom and burn down as much as he can… and why would that arrogant, hypocritical SOB care if Blacks suffered the most!

  6. It continues to amaze me just how much taking our attention (and resources) away from supporting the rest of the world and putting them on, ya know, our own country pays dividends. People have been dreaming about this happening for decades. I remember my father talking, griping actually, in the 80s-90s about how we were supporting the rest of the world instead of ourselves. He passed away in 2007. I smile when I think about what his reaction would be if I could tell him that the President that finally began doing it was… Donald Trump. Not sure he would believe me. Sometimes I have a difficult time believing it. 🤣

  7. I love his comment that he just does not go to Chicago. In August 1974, my 4th year Interior Design class did a week’s field trip to Chicago (great architecture, NEOCON). I made the mistake of walking in a black neighbourhood which had pimps and prostitutes with wildly colored hair. The pimp told me that “You ain’t got no tits on you” – some of the colorful diversity on display. I guess I did not make the grade to be a black prostitute.
