@DrHistoryBrad I have no idea on who or how the Peace prize is voted on, so no opinion. I give credit to Dylan for his songwriting but cannot stand to hear him 'sing'. A complete swing and miss on the Beatles. You may not like them but their influence is undeniable.
English

Bob Dylan is overrated as fuck. Ditto the Beatles. Great early work but the latter 2/3 of their catalogs are full of pretentious unlistenable shit gobbled up by fans too uncritical to have a serious opinion. Dylan’s Nobel Prize is worse than Obama’s or Gore’s.

@AP The President isn’t wrong. The Pope should stay out of politics. He recently met with David Axelrod, Obama’s guy

@rhm8txrs5x @AP Hope this is a parody account. If not, I don't feel sorry for you.

@AP America’s respected again because of Trump!
This is what all Americans voted for

@Joe__Bassey I never sympathize for a slave - he joined the white man to kill others thinking his reward from the white man would be recognition...
....he got the reward the devil always gives those who follow him.

He fought for his country. His own country took his eyes.
On February 12, 1946, Sergeant Isaac Woodard Jr. stepped off a military bus for the last time. After three years in the Pacific unloading ships under fire and earning medals for bravery, he was finally coming home to South Carolina, America 🇺🇸—home to his wife and the freedom he had risked everything to protect.
But in the Jim Crow South, a Black man in uniform was seen as a threat.
On a Greyhound bus in Batesburg, he asked the driver if he could use the restroom. Minutes later, the driver called the police, accusing him of "talking back."
Two white officers dragged him into the night. No questions. No justice. Just violence.
Their nightsticks came down again and again, crushing bone, splitting skin, and destroying vision.
"Let me see," Isaac begged. The officer’s response was a baton straight into Isaac’s eyes.
The man who survived war never saw light again.
The next morning, he woke up in a jail cell—blind, bloodied, and alone—still in the uniform that should have honored him.
The officer stood trial, and an all-white jury freed him in less than 30 minutes. No apology. No accountability. No justice.
But America was watching. Newspapers picked up his story. Orson Welles broadcast it to the nation. The NAACP demanded action.
When President Harry Truman heard what had been done to a Black soldier still wearing his medals, he promised, "This must never happen again."
That promise broke down racial barriers in the U.S. Army and sparked the modern Civil Rights Movement. It was born from Isaac Woodard’s stolen eyes.
He lived the rest of his life in darkness but lit a fire this nation could never put out.
Black veterans didn’t just fight overseas. They fought again the moment they came home.
Sergeant Isaac Woodard Jr., a soldier, a hero, a sacrifice that America must never forget.

@Joseph_Duarte No aggression on the offensive end. If the shots aren't falling you need to attack the basket and they didn't do that. This was depressing.
