    Why aren't the Democrats responding to this?

    Joe Biden: “…my children are going to grow up in a jungle, the jungle being a racial jungle.”

    Safe to assume that question was rhetorical? Those buffoons are so busy tripping over their own dicks they forget once in a while and show their true colors.
    We hate Trump, anything he says or does we have to counter.
    But that means the public will know that we are stating that we hate America.
    Quickly pull it down before anybody sees we put it up in the first place.


    "The official Twitter page for the Democratic National Committee has quickly taken down a tweet that suggested President Donald Trump's rally at Mt. Rushmore would be 'glorifying white supremacy.'

    In the since deleted Tuesday morning tweet, the DNC took Trump to task for the series of grievances he has enacted against indigenous communities in the United States.

    'Trump has disrespected Native communities time and again. He’s attempted to limit their voting rights and blocked critical pandemic relief,' they said in the tweet.
    They then turned their attention to Trump's July 3rd visit to Mt. Rushmore in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, where he will host a massive rally that will include a firework display. Many Native American activists and protesters are planning on taking to the controversial monument to protest it and the president's visit.

    The DNC added in the tweet: 'Now he’s holding a rally glorifying white supremacy at Mount Rushmore — a region once sacred to tribal communities.'

    The DNC had been referencing an article from The Guardian that featured Native American activists who were upset about Trump's upcoming visit.

    The tweet was soon deleted but not before being screengrabbed and shared by conservative pundits, who speculated that the monument would be the next to be called out following the removal or statues of American leaders - many of who owned slaves or enacted genocide against indigenous communities."

    No, the democrats were trying to tie Trump and his base to the white supremacy boogyman which is just yet another of their made up fairy tails.
    Did you forget it is an election year?

    No, they added plenty of their own BS to the tweet. Why do you think they took it down? Stop trying to defend this, they didn't even try to defend it.

    Exactly. You took the words out of my mouth. There is simply no defending the tweet. Even the Democrats realized it. Even the Democrats realized it. That's saying a lot.

    Terrorists? The police are the terrorists. Just ask any black person what they experience when they see a police car with lights flashing following them and pulling them over.

    That's the BLM narrative as well, but most people support law and order.

    Defunding the police is a losing argument for the democrat party, imo.

    ~ White people were the founders of the USA. They wrote the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

    The data on police/public interactions PROVE YOU WRONG....get over it and stop pushing an agenda built on a proven lie.

    Also....'any black person'?....is that a joke? You act like every single time a black person interacts with the police they end up being assaulted. You're pushing lies. Maybe start caring about what the truth is....just a thought.

    “WE ARE WITNESSING AN INDUSTRY-WIDE NERVOUS BREAKDOWN BY FAKE NEWS:” New York Times compares America’s enduring caste system to India, Nazi Germany.

    Related: ‘Y’all have lost your minds’: New York Times gets tossed in the shredder after reminding everybody why Mt. Rushmore is problematic.

    They really did; I’m not sure why the Times’ Democrat Party operatives with bylines didn’t get the memo in time:

    Trump's their puppet master. He tosses the raw meat toward them and madly leap at it. It's Trump's fault that his enemies makle fools of themselves.


    On Wednesday, the Republican Attorneys General Association (RAGA) released a powerful new ad warning about vandals and rioters destroying a key monument in American culture — the presidents on Mount Rushmore. While the vandals are not likely to actually deface Mount Rushmore anytime soon, their iconoclastic movement has already targeted each of the four presidents on the monument — George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and Theodore Roosevelt.

    [​IMG]
    The ad, “Erasing History,” shows the presidents on Mount Rushmore disappearing, one by one, as vandals tarnish monuments to each of those presidents, and as “America the Beautiful” plays somberly in the background. The ad appears to be a tribute to an America not just under siege but actively being dismantled by roving bands of rioters set on damning the entire American project as an exercise in oppression.

    The Center WILL Hold.

    Some questions answer themselves.
    THIS IS A GOOD ELECTION-YEAR STANCE: Trump ‘glorifying white supremacy’ with July 4 fireworks at Mount Rushmore, Democrats say.

    “If you support America’s founding and our heroes throughout our history you’re now ‘glorifying white supremacy’? This is insane, historically illiterate nonsense. When will Joe Biden condemn his own party’s hatred of America?” wrote GOP spokeswoman Elizabeth Harrington.

    The New York Times sits on land owned by the Lenape people who were swindled out of it for $24. The Lenape had no idea how much the land was worth or how the Europeans intended to change it. New York Times, Give the land back!!!

    Yes! The NYT should give its building to the Lenape tribe survivors as reparations!

    Agreed. The Lenape tribe would put the land to far far better use than the New York Times. In addition, the New York Times could prove to the world that they aren't just virtue signalling sociopaths..... that they actually believe the B.S. they are shoveling. It is a win for everybody.

    DECOLONIZE the NEW YORK TIMES!!!!

    Guess accounting for people who have gone more than once, and for people who have gone but are now deceased, and also accounting for citizens of other countries who have gone, looking at the attendance records, probably 60 million living US citizens have been to Mount Rushmore which is operated by the National Park Service.

    One retired black lady we spoke with on a solo road trip from NYC had done the Blue Ridge Parkway, the big Indian mound near East St. Louis, the Badlands, and many other places on the way to Keystone, SD. She was then headed for Yellowstone, the Grand Canyon, and Joshua Tree NP. Said she had never been anywhere, just worked all the time on Wall Street back room jobs, and decided on a big bucket list -- just like a lot of people.

    Attacking this great land from down deep in the canyons to the mountain tops and knocking down the statue of white man John Muir probably isn't going to go over very well for the democrats.

    Too bad for them they can’t destroy the ideal that stands for as easily as they can the statue. They just make it stronger IMO.
