JUNETEENTH
5GallonBucket and 2 others reacted to CardinalBacker for a topic
I think we’re at 15 now. We could stand for a few of them to be recognized days, but not Holidays. There’s also been talk about businesses rotating the Holidays… these four this year, those four next year, etc. I don’t think Trump spoke out of turn- I think he was whistling at a group of his supporters who aren’t happy that the last two federal holidays were gifts to the African American Community. But he’s not alone- I had a black co-worker make the argument only black people should have Juneteenth off, lol. Fanning the fires of racism never goes out of style, I guess.3 points -
JUNETEENTH
LumRaiderFan and one other reacted to CardinalBacker for a topic
I read a first hand account from a former slave who was a child when Juneteenth occurred. He said that everyone was summoned to the main residence, helped prepare a big meal, then their former owner announced that they were free. Welcome to stay, but free to go. The man said that his family left the same day and traveled as far as they could, then realized that they had no money or food… it wasn’t easy. I think it’s a very worthy day for us to celebrate.2 points -
Israel Strikes Iran

The way he handled himself in 2016 with Covid, Russia Gate, Sexual harassment charges from the 1800's, then aftermath of Jan 6th, New York, Georgia, survived two assassination attempts and the man still played golf and won the popular vote. In comparison, this is a walk in the park. While he makes the final decisions, he's got a ton of advisors and support staff. My prediction is Iran makes a deal and we don't get involved (although there is enough support to warrant it) and Russia/Ukraine is done before Christmas,2 points -
Israel Strikes Iran
Reagan reacted to LumRaiderFan for a topic
Israel has also said they could take care of the underground nuclear sites by blowing up access areas and monitoring any activity to gain access. They don’t need any help from us to handle Iran, they only need support if bigger players engage. However, I’m sure they are enjoying the support of a strong administration.1 point -

I've heard two scenarios for the "up to two weeks" decision. But first, let's not confuse some here. He said up to two weeks, could be tomorrow. Anyway... 1) He may want to take the full two weeks to possibly give the Shah's son enough time to start the movement to regain control of Iran. 2) If nothing is done by two weeks, it was stated that Israel has probably assured Trump that they will/can take care of the nuclear site. As an addition: I heard that Israel could possibly drop the 30,000 pound bunker busters by refitting a 767. So...1 point -

Some of the slaves that were treated well didn't want to leave. They had no place to go and that was the only life they knew.1 point -

It’s not just being 79 years old… it’s got to be unbelievably stressful. It would be bad if things were going smoothly, but things are anything but smooth right now. The only positive that I can see for Trump at the moment is that it seems like he isn’t fighting off the legal system for the time being. I fully expect that to kick back off if the House flips next year.1 point -

Show me where I’ve pointed to polls. My choice is now President, working out pretty well. And what’s comical and sad, is watching you guys meltdown over Trump on a daily basis.1 point -

That would never have happened if their short stop turns two instead of getting the lead runner out at third. Game would have been over.1 point -

I certainly hope the democrats continue the strategy of hating on Trump, an outgoing president, while ignoring the fact that they have no acceptable policies or candidates. 2028 looking good.1 point
