President’s Day forever oppressing Black History Month!

How Ironic that President’s Day is in the midst of Black History Month. A day to celebrate the long succession of lying old white men oppressing blacks is smack in the middle of the month to recognize black history. Nixon, Bush, Trump have carried on that tradition in recent time. And few realize that this year is the 50th anniversary of the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr, followed by the assassination of democratic candidate Robert F. Kennedy, followed by the subsequent election of lying Republican Richard Nixon and his especially cruel oppression of blacks.

So, 50 years later, this systematic war on minorities continues to come all the way from the lying Republican top.

The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people. You understand what I’m saying? We knew we couldn’t make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.

— John Ehrlichman, Nixon White House Domestic Affairs Advisor, on the War on drugs in a Harper's Magazine interview in 1994

Recall that Martin Luther King Jr was assassinated on April 4, 1968 and was followed only 2 months later by the assassination of then democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy on June 6, 1968. Kennedy had run on a platform of racial and economic justice, non-aggression in foreign policy, decentralization of power and social change. When he declared his candidacy on March 16, 1968 he said “I run because I am convinced that this country is on a perilous course and because I have such strong feelings about what must be done, and I feel that I'm obliged to do all I can.” Kennedy had attended King's funeral and was described as being the "only white politician to hear only cheers and applause."

With Kennedy out of the way, lying REPUBLICAN Nixon then became the president in 1968 and instead declared a domestic racist war on Black people using domestic police to terrorize black people and it has been going on ever since. Think of how many millions of people have been terrorized and killed here in America in the past 50 years as a result of this government sanctioned domestic terrorism.

And overseas everyone knows most recently that lying REPUBLICAN president George W. Bush lied to America to have our military police start terrorizing with Iraq and expand from there. And George W. Bush could not have been happier at the Dallas Police Memorial where he was literally dancing with joy to see that the jihad he started overseas was finally taking place in America. He could not even conceal his delight while standing by Obama thinking that soon REPUBLICAN Donald J. Trump will be in office and will finally make their dreams of a supremacist REPUBLICAN jihad in America come true.

And now Donald Trump carries on the long Republican tradition of terrorizing minorities.
