    None of the MAGA racist movement would want to post about it.

    Well! The 14th amendment is not even about slavery, and the emancipation proclamation is illegal — federalist Society

    ROFLMAO - Racism - just repackaged as MAGA, or Daughters of the Confederacy, KKK, and numerous other silly tags over the years to mask the true intentions.

    A reminder that our freedom is defined as (1 minus the tax rate). So if the tax rate is 40%, then we are 40% slaves to the government and 60% free. Trump is seeking to LOWER THE TAX RATE. Therefore making us more free. Democrats want the tax rate higher, which enslaves us all further to the government. Republicans are the party of freedom (low taxes), Democrats are the party of slavery (high taxes).

    Happy Juneteenth to all!

    GOOD DAY

    Hey a racist responds, and he does it by sucking off his dear leader, not surprised, they can't think for themselves and are all about selfish desire instead of greater good.

    Love living in a safe society but don't want to pay for it.

    It's really cool that it has spread to other states. It really is uniquely Texas

    The 14th amendment isn't about slavery, the 13th is. The 14th amendment is about ensuring that states do not take away rights guaranteed by the federal constitution. As a lawyer who practices in state court, the 14th amendment is the most important one we deal with (because it is what makes the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th, 6th, and 8th apply in our jurisdiction).

    Trump disgusts me every day.

    President Donald Trump took to social media Thursday on Juneteenth, a federal holiday, to criticize the number of “non-working holidays” in the United States.

    “Too many non-working holidays in America. It is costing our Country $BILLIONS OF DOLLARS to keep all of these businesses closed. The workers don’t want it either! Soon we’ll end up having a holiday for every once working day of the year. It must change if we are going to, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” Trump wrote in a post on his Truth Social platform.


    He really is a racist psycho to use today to say that. Not even that, but crying and moaning because Americans get too many holidays. We are one of the few countries in the world that don't require workers to get paid on Federal Holidays, and most countries have more than us. Not only that, we are also one of a few in the world who don't even require paid annual leave. American workers get a raw deal already and that jerk b****es about it. He is so pro business owners and so screw the workers it makes by skin crawl.

    Lmao @Space Ghost is the perfect symbolism of America. Dude cosplayed as a anti war activist calling everyone a war mongering neo con for 4 years to suddenly cheering on Trump possibly bombing Iran.

    Half of America are like him just sincerely brainwashed morons.

    He goes along with whatever his Saviors say or defends what they do.

    Putting him on ignore has been awesome.

    Juneteenth was made into a federal holiday in 2021 when everyone was swept up in the racial apology tour and the pendulum swung way too far in that direction. We already have MLK Day to honor civil rights. Do we really need Juneteenth? Probably not. It doesn’t do anything to solve the issues that are currently holding back the prosperity of minorities. And I didn’t get to trade US-listed equities today because the market was closed.
