“Not really understanding these things” never stopped Kushner or Witkoff from conducting diplomacy at the highest level, JD. I’m sure you’ll fit right in.

Here to remind you again that Juneteenth isn't the celebration of the slaves being freed. It's the celebration of enslaved Texans finding out they were free TWO years after slavery was abolished....so.....UNTIL EVERYONE IS FREE, NO ONE IS FREE.

In 2016, at age 89, Opal Lee—the "Grandmother of Juneteenth"—made a symbolic walk from Fort Worth to Washington, DC, to advocate for federal recognition of #Juneteenth. Later this year, she will celebrate her 100th birthday. More about her life and legacy: s.si.edu/3Qv2sSj

Today we mark an important day, Juneteenth. Not just because it is a federal holiday, but because it’s part of our history. Today marks the day when news of emancipation reached the last enslaved people in Texas, two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation was issued. It is a day to think about the importance of freedom and the work that still needs to be done in the name of freedom, the work that so many are working to ensure. As Opal Lee, the grandmother of this very holiday reminds us, we must learn from our history so that it never happens again. We must continue to learn the lessons of the past, so that we can be kinder, better, and more informed. We must continue to learn from what was, in order to make the future better. If we do not learn from the past, then we cannot keep moving forward! #juneteenth

For #Juneteenth: 70+ years after the Civil War, the WPA's Federal Writers' Project began interviewing elderly Americans who remembered being enslaved. These moving narratives & photos are now held here at the Library.

On Juneteenth, we honor the generations of Black New Yorkers whose struggle and determination brought us closer to justice.
At Foley Square, Lorenzo Pace's sculpture stands as a powerful tribute to that legacy. Our documentary explores Dr. Pace's life, his work, and his decades-long commitment to the ongoing fight for liberation.
This Juneteenth, let us not forget that pursuit of freedom is not buried in the past. It is the responsibility of our future.

On June 19, 1865, African American communities in Galveston, Texas, finally learned of their freedom from slavery — two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation took effect.
For 161 years, Juneteenth has been a day of remembrance for the freedom that was delayed. It is also a celebration of the joy and resilience that flourished despite that delay.
The contributions of African Americans, whose struggle for freedom shaped our nation, are immeasurable. Yet too many Black families continue to bear the brunt of an affordability crisis that has pushed them out of the neighborhoods and communities they've built.
True freedom has a tangible impact on daily life: the ability to afford housing, earn a living wage, put food on the table, support a family, and create a future for generations to come.
As we celebrate today, we must recommit ourselves to ensuring this freedom is fully realized.
Happy Juneteenth, New York City.

Shitlibs will swear up and down that their top priority is purple districts and congressional majorities and then spend all their energy making sure that D+30 districts have the most conservative representation imaginable.

I think it’s important to vote for Zohran Mamdani’s @NYCMayor slate (you can still early vote this weekend! @DarializaforNY @bradlander @claireforny) not just bc they will work as partners to his agenda here in NYC, but also bc the AIPAC candidates (like Dan Goldman and Adriano Espaillat) need to lose. There needs to be consequences for these hacks.

How is this “going to bat for Trump”?
Legitimately asking.
Because it clearly is warning for people like Schumer/Jeffries/etc to not make this a “the war was justified, just done wrong by Trump” talking point, which is going to the right of him and is idiotic.
Seriously.

Trump's greatest gift from God is the army of leftists that will go to bat for him at every turn, even through war.

Who was Rashida Tlaib primary opponent in 2024? (Hint: She ran unopposed).
So, based on this, who are you speaking of in this scenario? Because if we are talking 2024 PRESIDENTIAL primaries, Tlaib wasn’t in that either so this is just false equivalency.
Examples of it though:
Tim@trouble_man90
Did Rashida Talib commit "treason" in 2024 or is that term only reserved for Jasmine Crockett?

"“… in Lebanon, first of all, we made 200,000 residents who lived in a security zone not return. One of them is not coming back.… There is no population today. It’s just soldiers taking care of the day”.
The Cradle@TheCradleMedia
VIDEO | "We have flattened the entire first line of villages in southern Lebanon, all the houses have been destroyed. The residents will never see them standing ever again." In a stark acknowledgment of systemic ethnic cleansing, Israeli War Minister Israel Katz boasted on Friday that the Israeli military has completely obliterated the entire first tier of Lebanese border villages. Framing the mass destruction as a permanent "security zone", Katz explicitly declared that the 200,000 displaced Lebanese residents "are not returning."
