Well ask and ye shall receive, I guess. Trump has just got round to posting an “MLK jr DAY” (his grammar) Tweet, and it’s every bit as narcissistic as one might expect: > [@Our beloved President](#): > > t was exactly three years ago today, January 20, 2017, that I was sworn into office. So appropriate that today is also MLK jr DAY. African-American Unemployment is the LOWEST in the history of our Country, by far. Also, best Poverty, Youth, and Employment numbers, ever. Great! BTW, what the heck are “Youth numbers”? ---

Classic Trumpian sleight of hand. Whenever he wants to pretend that he has support among African-Americans, he trots out the black unemployment rate. (You just know that if there was a way he could have pumped up the economy without African-Americans seeing any benefit at all, he’d have been fine with that.) Similarly, whenever he tries to pretend that he cares about climate change he talks about how much he loves clean air and clean water. That’s Not. The Same. Thing. ---

He has the right to prosecute Biden… for what exactly? And he won’t- for now? That’s a fascist, through and through. If someone should be prosecuted, you prosecute them. If they shouldn’t, then you don’t. You don’t hold it over their heads. That’s what authoritarians do. They use the law as a cudgel against their political opponents, rather than for the purpose of promoting justice and order. ETA: Hmm, on edit, I see that Smapti is right. Still, no reason to waste a little bit of outrage, I’ll keep my words. Speaking of which, Smatpi, the reason that I didn’t check to see was because it sounded so much like him. You are not behind that account, are you? ---

I know a lot of you don’t “do” facebook but for those who do: What do you think of the propaganda being spewed by the official White House Facebook page? Today has been especially egregious. > **[The White House](https://www.facebook.com/pg/WhiteHouse/posts/?ref=page_internal)** > > The White House. 9,648,060 likes · 83,743 talking about this · 2,128,965 were here. Welcome to the Biden-Harris White House. (I put this here because FB is more similar to Twitter than the clusterfuck thread and I doubt it’s Trump himself running the page.) ---
