Women's March On Washington!

Expect more.

Massive protests happened today and it's grabbed the attention of the junk food media.

This protest was huge. It may have overshadowed the fuhrer's inauguration.

The protests against Republicans and their fuhrer will be ignored. The only way this is ignored is the protesters may find no interest in getting people out to vote. If they were capable of being out after the fact, why the hell they couldn't show up at the ballot box?

I am not a concern troll, but it sure would be nice to see this type of action in 2018 and 2020.

Nonetheless hundreds of thousands attended the big cities to call out Donald J. Trump and Mike Pence for winning on the negative. Many women are vowing to oppose Republican attempts to defund Planned Parenthood, repeal Obamacare and limit access to choice.

Major entertainers and politicians came out to the DC event to rally progressives to resist the government.

The Women's March is the sign of how many American women oppose policies proposed by Republican lawmakers. It also assures that Hillary Clinton supporters aren't going away quietly.

I refuse to tolerate hate. I refuse to tolerate intolerance. I refuse to tolerate sexism, favoritism, nepotism, Islamophobia, homophobia, and xenophobia.

I reject White extremism.

I reject Donald J. Trump and Mike Pence. I reject the notion that "we should get over it!"

And for the next four or eight years, I am going to be unrepentant. I will oppose Republicans if they decide to take us back to the "good ol' days!"

I support the Women's March and I hope to see more activism during the four years of Trump.

D.L. Hughley: You Trump Supporting Negroes Ain't Right!

DL. Hughley slams Trump and those who stand next to him.

DL Hughley doesn't apologize for his downright disgust towards the fuhrer Donald J. Trump.

He said in a social media video, "Fuck you and fuck you forever."

He also took issue with Floyd Mayweather, Jim Brown, Kanye West, Steve Harvey and Martin Luther King III being in the presence of the fuhrer.




"It amazes me, to convince Black people that Donald Trump cares about them, he takes pictures with celebrities," said Hughley. "If Donald Trump cared about Black people, he wouldn't have denigrated the president with those claims of birtherism. He wouldn't have stoked fears and racist fears saying this man is less than or not one of us to become president. If Donald Trump, cared about Black people, he wouldn't have, in the debates, talked about stop and frisk."

He slammed entertainers who decided to make it their business to "lecture" Black folks about Trump.

"Donald Trump takes pictures with Black people. --- You rather have Black people be football players, comedians and rappers than the president. You rather see us run the ball than run the country. That's why you do it."

He also called King, a "Gator of the King family". He said that King tried to sell his dad's bible and Nobel Peace Prize for money.

He pointed out Trump's nominee for Attorney General, the squinty eyed bigot Jeff Sessions.

Now The Hughleys is on Bounce TV. King is the co-founder and co-chairman of the network.

Hughley may lose syndication rights to his show for that comment.

Dems Vow Unrepentant Opposition Towards The Fuhrer!

Rep. John Lewis (D-GA) isn't attending the fuhrer's ceremony.

I will be watching something else on television if possible. I will not watch any events in honor of this man.

Nearly 40 Democratic lawmakers vow to oppose the fuhrer. They refuse to give credence towards a man who engaged in the most divisive man to ever run this country.

Jennifer Holliday bows out after many of her supporters vowed to boycott her shows. She cited that she had a scheduling rearrangement. The B Street Band backed out. They said they bowed out outta of respect towards Bruce Springsteen. The pressure is on 3 Doors Down and Toby Keith.

Keith is unapologetic. He said that he's done it for the two previous presidents. He will perform for the fuhrer.

Now the inaugural tickets are being passed out for free. It's not going to be HUGE event as he once promoted.

Trump's rhetoric has turned people off. He will not respect the polls or the public opinion about his policies.

Do you miss Barack Obama already?

We've taken a step forward putting a person of color in the White House. The Democratic Party has overcome the racist past. Now it's got to get away from the corporate capitalism that keeps the rich richer and the poor poorer.

The Republican Party was then the party of change. Yet, it's only change is the color of the hair on most of the White men and women who represent the party as a whole.

The Fuhrer Tangles With John Lewis!

Rep. John Lewis (D-GA) will take the knee. He and the fuhrer are tangling with one another.

Many Democratic politicians are skipping the fuhrer's inaugural. Some are citing their frustrations with the fuhrer's decision to go after Rep. John Lewis (D-GA).

Lewis, a former civil rights activist was critical of fuhrer Donald J. Trump. He said that Trump isn't a legitimate president and it merited a response from the fuhrer on social media.

Trump took to social media to say that Lewis is all talk and no action.






Lewis took a rock to the head. Lewis felt a dog's teeth through his crotch. Lewis was arrested for peaceful resistance in 1960s and most recently 2016.

While some questioned  Lewis’s assertion, many others expressed indignation about Trump's outburst, pointing out the unseemliness of attacking a civil rights leader on the eve of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

Lewis was one of the original Freedom Riders, beaten by police officers while marching from Selma to Montgomery in Alabama.
Omarosa and Darrell Scott attacks Black leaders. 
Trump's feud with Lewis carried echoes of his attacks on Khizr and Ghazala Khan, the Pakistani-American parents of an American soldier killed in Iraq, after Khan spoke out against Trump at the Democratic National Convention. Those attacks were widely viewed to have backfired, and Trump later modulated his words about the Khans.

Trump himself has experience questioning a president's legitimacy. He was instrumental in sowing doubts about President Barack Obama's birthplace.

Lewis, who is 76 and was first elected to Congress in 1987, is one of the few genuinely historic figures on Capitol Hill, revered by Democrats and Republicans alike. Allies of Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL), and Trump's nominee for attorney general, circulated pictures of him linking arms with Lewis at the 50th anniversary of the Selma march to fend off accusations that Sessions was a racist.

Nevertheless, Lewis testified against Sessions, declaring, "We need someone as attorney general who's going to look out for all of us, and not just some of us."
