This achievement is not that far behind us with some States today are working hard to undermine Federal Authority so they can get back to “discrimination as we see fit”. 🙄

http://calendar.eji.org/racial-injustice/jul/16 “Under Virginia law at that time, racial segregation was mandatory on state-sponsored transportation. Ms. Morgan insisted that her presence on an interstate bus meant that Virginia law did not apply, and she refused to be removed from her seat. Police physically dragged the young Black woman from the bus, held her in the Saluda City Jail, and convicted her of violating the state segregation law.”
“Ms. Morgan appealed her conviction and, in March 1946, civil rights lawyers Thurgood Marshall and William H. Hastle argued her case before the U.S. Supreme Court. Less than three months later, in Morgan v. Commonwealth of Virginia, the Court reversed Ms. Morgan’s conviction, and held that state segregation laws were unconstitutional as applied to interstate bus travel.” #BetYouDidntKnow.
@TheOldGuy I think it’s safe to observe the damage inflicted when we allow Giant Assholes to run countries. The best example off the top of my head is the Vlad and Donny Show, with a guest appearance by Bad Boy Kim. Hopefully in the near future only to be suffered though as re-runs of historical documents as how best not to fuck up so badly. 🤔

Estonia's Defense Minister Hanno Pevkur has stated that in order to be prepared for a potential conflict, the country will be increasing its defense spending to 3 percent of GDP and will be purchasing more than 1.2 billion euros worth of ammunition over the next four years. This decision has been made in light of Russia's full-scale war against Ukraine, which has highlighted the need for increased defense capabilities.
@flexghost #AgentOrange’s dark Wonderland visions/self projections might be hilarious if not for the Koolaid drinkers and co-conspirators nodding in approval. The question as usual, how many of them are there? 🤔

@Reuters What happened? Don’t we all remember how Donny fixed this in a day during his Dog and Pony Show with a “strong man” who became a dear friend. Maybe Kim is upset that his favorite US Clown is being picked on, so it’s back to business as usual…🤔
@mguhlin A peak into the brains of the Right Wing- Public Education, what a waste of MY money! Especially when liberals are indoctrinating children about the foundation and corner stones upon which the Nation was founded. They might get some silly ideas in their heads about equality, non-discrimination, election integrity, and equal opportunity for Christ’s Sake! 🤔
@crooksandliars I wonder how the majority of Floridians feel about the need for Govt intervention when the Capitalist Insurers are fleeing the State? This might be a good parable about when the chips are down don’t look to Capitalists to help, not part of the business plan. And not said to pick on Capitalists per say, but to inject some perspective as to what you can expect from Capitalists vs from your Gov created to represent all of the people. Not happening in FL currently. 🤔

Today is my late mother's birthday -She passed away in May. I wanted to re-share the article I wrote in May remembering her. My Mom was a feisty Sicilian woman all through her 93 years! Like all who have lost loved ones, healing takes time. Sending my love and support to others who also lost a loved one this year. https://deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/the-passing-of-my-beloved-mother
@wdlindsy We were warned repeatedly but the Capitalists more worried about their bottom line and personal wealth, and the Third World was more interested in catching up with the West. This event was preordained by humanity. And for a reality check in the USA, ask yourself who was warning and who had their heads in the sand? Conservatives- usually on the wrong side of history. On the political front, Al Gore was ridiculed and lambasted as a stupid or manipulative liberal.
