A Rant for the Ages [1] ['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.'] Date: 2024-07-20 I’m pissed and I’m done beating around the bush. I had the great honor of actually meeting Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee almost exactly one year ago. She was so very kind and I got to take a picture with her. I also met President Biden and Vice President Harris as well. I don’t talk about my business because it’s my business, but due to the circumstances of these times, the gloves come off. Because I’m simply sick of this shyt. I am. I am very upset right now learning of Rep. Jackson Lee’s passing. This wonderful woman’s final tweet was to support President Biden and urge him to stay in the race. But then I also have to wake up to this BS tweet from Senator Sherrod Brown urging Biden to drop out. F you Sherrod Brown and all of the Dems playing this dangerous game. You not only are jeopardizing the White House, you are now blowing up potential House and Senate majorities and for what. To appease racist and sexist azzed oligarch donors who think that only white men can effectively run this country (as well as protect them from paying their fair share of taxes) and by the white Democratic establishment going along with this, my conclusion is that they think it too. You greedy, selfish SOBs. You care more about cock blocking a potential Harris 2028 run than you care about the ***** Party enacting Project 2025 policies. Your fake concern over whether Biden will be able to win is a cover for your real desire to avoid a possible Harris-Jeffries scenario and for you, that is too much power in the hands of black people. I said what I said. Nevermind the fffing sacrifices black folk in this country has given time and time again only to get barely nothing in return. Nevermind the fffing loyalty that black folk has shown this country despite the fact that our ancestors were brought to this country in chains. Nevermind the fact that despite slavery, black folk has willingly and patriotically signed up to serve in the military fighting for this country against her enemies. Nevermind the fact that although black folk have a clear economic and financial disadvantage in personal wealth, homeownership and business ownership, we still are unfailingly loyal to a party that at least tries to provide equality through legislation and balancing the courts. Black folk are the base of the Democratic Party full stop not only because we are loyal, but we see thru the BS antics of the ****** Party and its puppet leader, as we see through the Harris diss right now. If Biden’s VP were a white man, none of this would be happening right now. Biden could have shown up drunk to that debate and the media wouldn’t have cared. Im sick of this BS, but more importantly, this shyt still won’t work. Black folk have been through hard times and the worst of times. We’ve been lied on, cheated, talked about, rebuked and scorned but yet we still rise because we have always seen the mountaintop and we have always kept our eyes on the prize and we will hold on. That’s who black people are. Who are you? EDIT: It has come to my attention that I used a word that is not allowed to be used. I apologize for that instance as I have not been around these parts in a while and was not aware of the rule. Thanks to those who pointed it out in the comments.
