Shooting From The Hip-Hop: Mass Shooting In Houston!

Mass shooting in a Houston neighborhood. This happened while a rap music video was being filmed.

So far, over 400 mass shootings in the United States and there's only 365 days in the calendar year.

Two people are killed and seven are wounded in a shooting ambush. This happened while they were filming a hip-hop music video.

This happened on Friday but word got out on Saturday and the Houston Metro Police and Harris County Boys are piecing together the motives and the terrorists responsible for this senseless tragedy.

"Basically they were ambushed, we believe by individuals in cars and or foot," said Sheriff Ed Gonzalez. "We don't know if there was a [rap] beef going on or what exactly happened."

Two were dead at the scene and others were taken to local hospitals. One victim is in critical condition.

The deaths are confirmed. A 20-year old man identified as Gonzalo Gonzalez and 22-year old Jonathan Jimenez were killed. The remaining injured are ranged between 17 and 23 years old.

There may be other victims who may have left the scene before the cops arrived.

"This is a very serious situation," the sheriff said. "This is a residential neighborhood." The area is a mixture of homes, businesses, including a mortuary, a school and churches.

There were lots of shots fired and the scene was extensive and stretched for several blocks.

Firefighters had to wash blood from the concrete. There is some evidence of it.

Mass shootings are happening in the United States. You may think it's never gonna happen to your town, your family or yourself, but I assure you it will affect you at some point.

Don't you just want to scream!?

Scream in the faces of these damn lawmakers whenever they offer their "thoughts and prayers" to every fucking mass shooting in the United States. They will offer their condolences and say a word vomit how they sympathize with the deceased. Some here will tell us that "now isn't the time to talk." Others will say that "the NRA has too much influence on gun laws."

We will talk about this for a few days and then we're off to another controversy. The next controversy would either be something done by Trump, a politician, an entertainer or we will experience another mass shooting. The next mass shooting will be even worse than the last one.

I repeat myself over and over again! I use the same old copy and paste. I hear the same trolls saying that there's nothing we can do. I keep hearing "concern" trolls telling us that it's their own fault for their own deaths. I hear the same old talking points about "good guys with guns" and "god's given rights."

I am getting really tired of dealing with mass shootings.

What will it take for Congress to do something about gun violence? (Expect the dumbest answers and responses from trolls).

Keep praying for a miracle. You know the power of GOD can help solve these senseless tragedies.

Keep registering voters and recruiting candidates who are not afraid to take on the NRA and far-right agitators. Americans should not be afraid to speak out against gun violence in the United States. Over 400 mass shootings is too much. Let's change directions now.

Keep guns out of the hands of Black and Latino criminals. This happened because of rap music. If you want to blame something, blame rap music, civil rights leaders and fatherless homes for this.

Focus on changing laws that make it easier for anyone to obtain a firearm. I mean if they can make laws that raise the age of tobacco to 21 years old, they could raise the age of purchasing firearms to 21 as well.

Other

Please Specify:

As expected, Donald J. Trump, Mike Pence, Gov. Greg Abbott, Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX), Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and the 36 U.S. Representatives will do the usual "thoughts and prayers" bullshit. They will offer phony sympathy and lackluster results.

Every time these folks offer "thoughts and prayers," "their condolences," "their hearts going out to," and "their apologies," they are not sincere. For every naming of a road, park, bench, building and holiday, it won't matter to the community. For every time they lower flags, offer moments of silence and candlelight vigils, we just offer "feel good-isms."

The website Officer Down is a memorial to those who were killed in the line of duty. Those who don't get their names mentioned in the junk food media. Also the website the National Gun Violence Memorial also keeps record of the many individuals killed by gun violence.

We are in the midst of possibly the 400+ mass shooting in the United States. Donald J. Trump, Congress, the National Rifle Association and agitators in the junk food media have moved on from dealing with this. They're too busy sniping over partisan blame games. With Trump being impeached while in office, he's unlikely to focus on gun violence.

Trump and lawmakers elected to federal office made politics extremely toxic. It's not just the fault of our dear leader and lawmakers, but relentless agitators on the 24/7 cable news channels. They are profiting off division and divisiveness. The internet is also a problem. It's is a breeding ground for potential mass shooters. Facebook, Twitter, Google and other social media outlets have been "ground zero" for disinformation, partisan threats and social activism. Incels and social outcasts find their outlets on sites that inspire them to cause harm to their fellow human beings.

GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.

THERE IS NO GOD.

Ivanka Trump Could Be On Her Way Out!

Ivanka Trump might exit the White House.

The White House advisor and first daughter of Donald J. Trump is thinking about exiting.

Ivanka Trump, the media mogul turned White House special advisor who doesn't really have a title is thinking about leaving the position if her dad win reelection.

The 38-year old celebrity agitator is married to White House counsel chief Jared Kushner. They both have struggled trying to control their dad from impulsive actions.

In an interview with Margaret Brennan of Face The Nation, Trump said her decision will be dependent on her three young children.

Trump still faithful to her father said that the impeachment has only strengthen his base.

Before the Winter Recess, the House of Representatives have formally filed the Articles of Impeachment against Trump for obstruction of Congress and abuse of power.

The Articles of Impeachment will eventually be delivered to the Senate. Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) made it clear that if Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) doesn't conduct a fair trial, the Articles of Impeachment will stay in her possession until further notice.

When asked by host Brennan about her future beyond next November, Trump said, "I am driven first and foremost by my kids and their happiness, so that's always going to be my top priority."

"My decisions will always be flexible enough to ensure that their needs are being considered first and foremost, so they will really drive that answer for me," she added.

Trump and Kushner have three children: Arabella, 8; Joseph, 6; and Theodore, 3.

The family moved from New York City to Washington, DC shortly after Trump was elected.

Trump and Kushner are progressive. The family clashes with the far-white members of the White House and are often ridiculed for supporting Trump's inhumane policies.

Don Imus Passed Away!

One less bigot in the world. Don Imus died in Texas.

Excuse me as I don't send my condolences to this guy! Yeah, I want to be left with the reminder that he called the Rutgers women's college basketball team a bunch of "nappy headed hos."

Don Imus has passed away at a College Station, Texas hospital today at the age of 79.

One of the early pioneers of "shock jock" radio, Imus paved the way for Howard Stern, Rush Limbaugh, Sean "Softball" Hannity, Glenn Beck and numerous others.

Once a stable of morning radio for decades, Imus was known for the outrageous comments about politics, sports and just about anything he could get a grip on.

His wife, conservative agitator Deirdre, his sons Wyatt and Lieutenant Zachary Don Cates were at the bedside when he passed away.

Known as the "I-man", Imus made a career off shocking his listeners with his unique style of broadcasting.

Imus had a philanthropy for children. He offered $40 million for groups including the CJ Foundation for Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. He ran a New Mexico ranch for dying children and often used his radio show for donations.

Imus, born in Riverside, California was the son of a rancher. He was the oldest of two boys --- his brother Fred later became a "Imus in the Morning" regular. He moved to Flagstaff, Arizona where Imus joined the Marines before taking jobs as a train brakeman and uranium miner.

At the age of 28, he began his job as a radio deejay. He would start his career at a local station in Stockton. It only lasted a few years. He uttered on the airwaves, "hell."

The setback didn't stop him, he maintained the controversy despite the cannon firing.

He moved a bigger market and grew. He was Billboard's "Disc Jockey of the Year" award for medium-sized markets after a stunt where he ordered 1,200 hamburgers to go from a local McDonald's.

He would move to Cleveland, Ohio and became a top-DJ for the region.

Imus was struggling through the years. He was addicted to alcohol and cocaine. The agitator would struggle through programs and was let go again. He ended on a sour note during the 1980s.

He would end up taking rehab. He checked into a Florida rehabilitation center and returned to the radio a lot stronger.

He would join MSNBC in 1996 and host the "Imus in the Morning" simulcast through its studios.

He hosted many entertainers, politicians, people in the news and commentators on the show.

He would soon get into a feud with fellow shock jock, Howard Stern. They ended up becoming biter rivals and they were competing for the number one spot. It would end up being Stern by a landslide.

Imus would carry the torch on MSNBC until 2007. When he was commenting about Rutgers University and its women's basketball team, he made the comments about the team being "nappy headed hos."

His former co-host Bernard McGuirk said the team were "jigaboos versus the wannabes."  The agitator did also call the women "hardcore hos."

Media Matter for America recorded the remarks and it took it viral.

The radio station WNBC and MSNBC were flooded with angry callers and public outrage.

Imus at first defended the remarks.

"The phrase didn't originate in the white community. That phrase originated in the Black community. Young Black women all through that society are demeaned and disparaged by their own Black men, and they are called that name in Black hip-hop."

That earned a public condemnation from the NAACP and National Action Network. The founder of NAN, Al Sharpton called the remarks repudiable and disgusting. He wanted his ass fired out the cannon.

Imus was forced to apologize and address the controversy on Keepin' It Real with Al Sharpton.

"I want to take a moment to apologize for an insensitive and ill-conceived remark we made the other morning regarding the Rutgers women's basketball team, which lost to Tennessee in the NCAA championship game on Tuesday. It was completely inappropriate and we can understand why people were offended. Our characterization was thoughtless and stupid, and we are sorry."

In a heated debate, Imus and Sharpton were at one another over how "abominable", "racist", and "sexist" the remarks were. Imus said, "Our agenda is to be funny sometimes we go too far. And this time we went way too far. Here's what I've learned: that you can't make fun of everybody, because some people don't deserve it."

Shortly after, MSNBC placed Imus in the freezer. Far-white racist Pat Buchanan said that Imus was being "railroaded" and he was a "good guy" who made a bad mistake and apologized for it.

The outcry was so massive. It forced CBS Radio, WNBC and MSNBC to fire Imus out the cannon.

Some on the far-white defended Imus. One in particular is that annoying conservative agitator Sean "Softball" Hannity. The softball found Imus was a victim of the "far-left" and "Soros-related" conspiracies. He would soon help rebuild Imus from the ground up.

Imus would secure a new deal with Citadel Broadcasting and get a spot on WABC, the leading talk radio station in the nation. He would also pick up a deal with RFD-TV to simulcast his show.

For at least five years, Imus dominated RFD-TV in the mornings. It was the softball who pressured Roger Ailes to hire Imus.

Imus would soon replace Alexis Glick and take the morning spot on Fox Business Network.

Imus would be on Fox Business for the next five years before he would hang it up for good.

Citing his health concerns and Cumulus Radio cutting staff, Imus retired from the radio for good.

Imus settled in New Mexico and Texas during his final years.

One less hatemonger on the airwaves. All that's left is Rush Limbaugh, Michael Savage, Sean "Softball" Hannity, Glenn Beck and Mark Levin. They're getting up there and sooner or later we might clear the air of that noise pollution.

Halima Aden Is A Beauty Of Essence!

The beautiful Halima Aden becomes a historical first for Essence Magazine. She is the first Muslim woman to grace the Black women's magazine.

Aden has made history as the first Black woman to grace the cover wearing a hijab just after her historical appearance in a burkini for Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit issue.

She is a Somali-American model.

"There have been several moments in model Halima Aden's life when she's broken a barrier by simply being who she is," Essence shared in a news release on its website.

Halima Aden is a beautiful example of Black achievement.

"The model and activist was the first Muslim homecoming queen at her high school; the first Somali student senator at her college; and the first hijab-wearing woman to be the face of numerous fashion magazine covers, including Allure and British Vogue."

Essence added, "In celebration of stepping into a new decade, Aden's gracing the cover of Essence's January/February 2020 issue as the first Black female cover star wearing a hijab," the statement reads.

Only 22-years old, Aden has become a beautiful example of the powers of Black women.

Aden even admitted given the environment towards women of color (especially Muslim women), she would fear being rejected and subject to harassment.

"It's scary because it's not my culture to do pageantry. It's very much an American culture. But that's always been my messaging," she said. "Don't be afraid to be the first."

Mike Pompeo's Days Are Numbered!

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo could be fired out the cannon soon.

The impeachment of Donald J. Trump has driven a lot of attention to the country. The 45th President of the United States is officially indicted on crimes and misdemeanors. His abuse of power and failure to comply to Congress will be etched in American history.

His team is scrambling. Matter of fact, his team is being replaced.

The White House is so disorganized. Turnover has never been this high. Even Barack Obama had turnover but nothing compares to what Trump is doing. I mean Trump has promised to hire the "best people" for the job.

So far, the best people have either failed or emboldened Trump into doing something that damages him and our country.

Mike Pompeo was then the CIA director before he became the current Secretary of State. Now his days are numbered and Senate Majority Leader aka The Grim Ripper, Mitch McConnell (R-KY) is hoping to recruit him to replace outgoing Sen. Pat Roberts (R-KS).

Pompeo's incompetence wasn't without its successes. I mean he's inflamed the Middle East by declaring Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. He signed off the declaration stating that Israeli settlements in the West Bank are legal. He greenlighted the controversial Israeli occupation of the West Bank and blockade of the Gaza Strip.

Pompeo has avoided talk about is job being on the line but he knows that Trump's unpredictable antics could spell disaster for him and those associated around him.

Pompeo had feuded with former National Security Advisor John Bolton. They clashed over the issue of Iran and North Korea. Trump wants to broker a peace deal with North Korea. He wants to seal his legacy with denuclearizing the secretive country. He wants to advocate his own Iranian deal.

Pompeo wanted Trump to stay in the Iranian deal. Bolton and Trump wanted to get out of the deal.

While Pompeo said he may stay on until the spring, the window to sign up for the Senate is closing.

Kansas former secretary of state Kris Kobach is reportedly running for the seat. He is a controversial figure who was ridiculed for voter purges and denying people of color a right to vote. He is too toxic and Republicans fear that Kansas could go to the Democrats.

If you put Pompeo in the mix, it's still brings controversy. His role in the Ukrainian matter could damage him as well.

Trump hasn't found a decent replacement yet but whomever gets the job will carry a lot of weight on his shoulders.

Dave Trott: [The Republicans] Should Have Never Picked Trump!

Former Republican lawmaker speaks out against Trump.

Former Republican congressman who quit in 2018 speaks out.

Dave Trott said that the Republican Party is sliding into oblivion. He cites the victory of Rep. Haley Stevens (D-MI) and the mass exodus of Republicans leaving Congress in 2020. His 11th Congressional District was a Republican stronghold with a PVI of +5. He represented Metro Detroit's suburbs and thought Republicans had a lock on the region.

They thought wrong. He chose to not seek reelection and made the Republicans scramble for a candidate. The candidate lost and it was a brutal sting that helped Democrats retake the House of Representatives.

Now as Donald J. Trump faces a test of his presidency now that the House of Representatives have formally impeached him, Trott decides to speak out.

I'm going to paraphrase the remarks. If I was Trott and had a choice words for Trump I would say:

"You got what's coming to you!"

In an interview with the junk food media, Trott remarked on the controversy between Christianity Today and Trump. The magazine founded by Billy Graham called for Trump to be removed from office because of his actions as a human being and as a leader. Graham's son Franklin slammed the editorial and fired the editor out the cannon.

Trott sat back and watched the controversy unfold.

"Mr. Trump is psychologically, morally, intellectually, and emotionally unfit for office."

Trott wrote his letter in response to a November article titled, "Top Military Officers Unload on Trump," in which The Atlantic's Mark Bowden interviewed current and former military officers and Pentagon personnel, including several officers of the highest-rank.

"In 20 years of writing about the military, I have never heard officers in high positions express such alarm about a president," Bowden noted.

"Frightening. That is the only word to describe Mark Bowden's article," Trott wrote Tuesday. "President Trump's inability or unwillingness to follow normal decision-making protocols has created chaos in our foreign policy and put our country at risk."

He added, "The article also helped me with respect to the 2020 election. I had been flummoxed. I will now have to consider voting for a Democrat: High unemployment, a stagnating economy, and massive debt for a few years are better than alienating the rest of our allies, getting into a nuclear war with Iran, or allowing 10,000 Islamist soldiers to be set free in Syria."

Trott concludes, "Trump is psychologically, morally, intellectually, and emotionally unfit for office. We can only hope Congress impeaches and removes him so we have a choice between two adults in 2020."

Trott said that he's not too keen on the Democratic presidential nominees but says he's taking a liking to Michael Bloomberg, the former mayor of New York City.

Rep. Will Hurd (R-TX), Rep. Rodney Rooney (R-FL) and Rep. John Shimkus (R-IL) have all announced they're resigning from Congress.

They have openly criticized Trump while also supporting his agenda. Matter of fact, they support not impeaching the "motherfucker" to quote Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI).

Tlaib, Rep. Justin Amash (I-MI) and Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-MI) were in the crosshairs of Trump this year and have voted to impeach.

Travis Kalanick: I See A Trainwreck Coming!

Travis Kalanick is walking away from Uber after the company got tired of his antics.

The co-founder of social media ridesharing service Uber is walking away from everything. He's no longer involved and doesn't want no part of what the rideshare company.

Travis Kalanick, the controversial media personality and business mogul has decided to "quit" the company he's founded.

Let's rewind back to the infamous video where Kalanick leaving an event gets heated by an Uber driver after a confrontation over the company lowering rates on exclusive rides.



Kalanick was the former CEO of the ride-hailing giant. He sold his last 5.8 million shares of the company, worth more than $177 million, on Dec. 20, according to a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filing out Thursday. Since Nov. 6, Kalanick has sold his entire stake, worth about $2.8 billion, a series of filings showed.

Uber and Lyft has nearly put taxi companies out of business.

He has now completely severed his ties with Uber after resigning from the company’s board of directors on Tuesday. His last day of service will be Dec. 31.

Kalanick said that he is “proud of all that Uber has achieved” and that he will “continue to cheer for its future from the sidelines.”

Uber shares debuted on the New York Stock Exchange on May 10, at a price of $45 apiece. They have fallen more than 30 percent since, lowering the company's market capitalization from about $82 billion to $52 billion.

Kalanick resigned as Uber’s chief executive in June 2017 after some of the company’s largest investors scrutinized the handling of harassment and discrimination complaints. He recently started CloudKitchens, a provider of smart kitchens for delivery-only restaurants.

What Happened To DaBaby?

Another controversy for DaBaby.

The Grammy-nominated entertainer had a controversial run-in with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg metro police. He was arrested for marijuana possession shortly after he finished his concert.

On his own home turf.



It became a public relations nightmare for the police and they're doing an internal investigation into the matter.

The CMPD is being accused of racial profiling the high profile rapper DaBaby after he finished his concert. He was charged with weed possession on Monday night. Known legally as Jonathan Kirk, the rapper told the junk food media, that cops "absolutely" targeted him and "unlawfully searched" his car once he finished performing at the Bojangles' Coliseum.

"Black excellence right her in our own city, (and) they hate it," said DaBaby on social media.

The incident has the CMPD internal affairs looking into the matter. The police have a history which driven the matter into the forefront. Many of the arrests for minor possession were harsher for Blacks than Whites.

In February 2016, the Charlotte Observer cited analysis that showed between 2014 and 2016, African American were arrested higher than non-Black citizens. There were 762 and just 64 whites.

According to the cops, they smelled a "strong odor of marijuana" coming from DaBaby's white Dodge Challenger before his concert in the city. They observed "marijuana" in plain view inside the vehicle while utilizing their flashlights.

DaBaby donated toys and clothes to Charlotte. Performed a concert shortly after. Arrested later that night.

DaBaby refused to speak with cops after the concert ended. He was detained and later cited for resisting arrest, obstruction and delay of arrest and marijuana charges.

"They pull us over for no reason....they treat us like animals," DaBaby told the junk food media after being released from lock-up.

Earlier that day, the entertainer was giving gifts to underprivileged children in the community.

The entertainer warned his crew has "high-resolution video and audio" from the incident that would document that DaBaby did not resist arrest -- thrusting the CMPD into the controversy.

Even in the spirit of the holidays, DaBaby still keeps 'em coming.

Someone died last night while the police department wasting resources and officers to harass me in attempt to make a bad example out of me. When in reality, i’m the most positive example the city of Charlotte got. Especially for anybody in the streets of Charlotte and the KIDS.

— DaBaby (@DaBabyDaBaby) December 24, 2019

We gone let the police department use the local news channels to cover their tracks then I’ll give the world our perspective. Keep in mind we have high resolution video and audio over here at the hottest label in the world. 🤓

The charges are misdemeanors punishable for up to 1 year in the iron college, plus fines and community service. In the state of North Carolina that is a class D misdemeanor.

The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Ohio Family Loses The Traffic Wars!

Ohio family loses their lives on this Christmas day.

An Ohio woman and her relatives found the losing end of a car accident on this Christmas day.

Four people are dead and three others are in critical following a single-car crash in Dayton, Ohio.

The crash happened around 11am. Three adults and one juvenile were killed in this accident.

Three other victims were taken to local hospitals.

The impact of the crash caused the car to split into two parts and catch fire, Ohio State Patrol confirms. The OSP, Dayton Police and Montgomery County boys are doing investigation into whether the driver was under the influence of alcohol.

"Oh my god. It's on fire. The car is on fire," said a witness.

The identities weren't confirmed but one family member said they think they know the victim.

The witness that say the accident said the driver was erratic. She didn't realize that the car was stuffed with individuals.

"Somebody just took a baby out of the car. There's two kids. They've taken two kids. They've got three kids out of the car."

One witness who went into the public addressed the accident.

"I just seen the car zig-zagging down the street and just hit the tree and blew up! Split in half," said Shameka Littlejohn after she made a call to 9-1-1.

The car's frame left behind was barely recognizable. A mental bench was toppled, a tree damaged and a fire hydrant knocked over.

OSP and Dayton Police conclude that the accident was on the worst crashes they've seen in awhile.

Every holiday season, folks lose their lives to vehicular accidents. At least 2,000 people die on America's roads. This incident in our community just adds on to the number.

"I was very shaken up. I was scared. I was trying to get them help as soon as possible," said Littlejohn.

Jussie Smollett Donates To Flint!

Jussie gives Flint a little hope.

Even though his career has pretty much dried up after his infamous staged attack in Chicago, Jussie Smollett is still honoring his court order to pledge to community service.

Smollett, 38 made a surprised visit on Sunday, with several stunned parents.

The disgraced entertainer went to Flint, Michigan to give out coats, toys and backpacks to children.

In recent years, thousands of children in the city were exposed to the dangerously high levels of lead in their drinking water. There is still a public health crisis in the region.

Smollett was fired from Empire after revelations about him staging a racial attack in Chicago in January. The Chicago Police determined he hired two of his personal trainers to stage an attack to help jumpstart his career. Smollett was concerned that he was being reduced in the hit drama.

Due to the antics, Smollett's role was reduced, the show's ratings sunk and Fox decided to sever ties with Lee Daniels by cancelling Star leaving it in a cliffhanger and Empire to finish its final season.

The state prosecutor Kim Foxx facing scrutiny over her role in the matter. The charges that Smollett faced were later dropped. He pled guilty to the criminal act of falsifying statements and inducing panic. He was ordered to pay $130,000 for the time rendered in the investigation. Smollett denies staging an attack and countersued the city.

Smollett was charged with 16 felony charges of lying to police but the prosecutor dropped the charges.

In exchange, Smollett did community service and paid 10,000.

Former mayor Rahm Emmanuel and former top cop Eddie Johnson slammed Smollett and Foxx for the charges being dropped. According to the junk food media, Foxx had been in contact with members of Smollett's family.

She recused herself from the investigation shortly after.

Daniels did hint that Smollett will have a part in the final season of the show. However, the haven't promised he'll return to main character as the final season of Empire wraps up.

Enjoy It!

While you're enjoying time with your family and friends, we here at Journal de la Reyna wish you a Merry Christmas, Hanukkah and Kwanzaa.

The presents are being opened.

The NBA has games on.

There's a marathon of A Christmas Story being played on TNT and TBS.

You might want to catch up on some time getting the tree and lights taken down in some parts of the country. The weather in the Dayton area is nearly 60 degrees. It's wild.

Climate change is real folks.

Anyway, while we finish out the year, I will do the Yearly Wrap Up. It will be shorter this time but it will manage to cover all the year and decade in a whole.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Yes, even Donald J. Trump is working. Even though, he's at Mar-a-Largo, he still is getting daily briefings, monitoring of issues abroad and contacting Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) by phone on the issues. Despite their gutter sniping and attacks on one another.

Enjoy this holiday and hope the best for those who don't get an opportunity to enjoy it.

You notice in this video, Melania Trump says, "The President and I....." See if this was Michelle and Barack Obama, they would say, "Me and Barack" or "Me and Michelle."
