  1. Can you imagine stating, "Your Not Wanted Anymore". Absolute Nonsense, if I ever heard of it!!!! You Are Wanted! Don't forget it!!!!! Don't get out!!!! Why should you get out!!!!!Yvonne Pena, August 17, 2025.

  2. What did Al Sharpton ever do to have the money he has ? What exactly is his job?Except to degrade the White people ! He's prejudice and everything that comes out of his mouth is of no importance !

  3. Why didn't Nancy Pelosi call the National guard ! Wasn't that her job?It had nothing to Trump !Lets get realist here there are more blacks that are destroying these states and you know that's the truth !I don't see that many whites breaking and destroying stores stealing everything ! Lets take a count on that !

  4. I'm blaming black cities, and they black citizens for my relationship with Epstein. Send the national guard to black cities, send Ghislane Maxwell to a low security work release camp!!! Wow

  5. Sharpton calls himself a reverend and only preaches about racism then tells me it's a white persons belief. Usually a reverend will preach what they believe in right?

  6. Josiah Thomas Walls (December 30, 1842 – May 15, 1905) was an American farmer, lawyer, and politician who served all or some of three terms in the United States House of Representatives between 1871 and 1876. A member of the Republican Party, he was one of the first African Americans in the United States Congress elected during the Reconstruction Era, and the first black person to be elected to Congress from Florida. He also served four terms in the Florida Senate.

    Twice his election to U.S. Congress was overturned.

  7. It's time for people to stop with the race factor. AS a black woman, in NYC when it was BLACK LIFE'S MATTER IT WAS MORE BLACK ON BLACK CRIME That weekend. HUMAN LIVES MATTER. IF AS an individual you have honor for your MAYOR because that person is black, uplift. And as far as BALTIMORE IS CONCERNED, MOST OF THE CITY, HAS ROWS AND ROWS OF EMPTY HOMES. BOARDED UP FROM THE CRIME DUE TO THE LACK OF JOBS AND THE DRUG EXPLOSION. SO STOP CAPPING. MY NIECE HAD TO MOVE OUT OF BALTIMORE LAST YEAR BECAUSE SHE CAME HOME FROM WORK AND THE HOUSE WAS DESTROYED, THEY ROBBED HER OF EVERYTHING THAT WAS ANYTHING. I'M JUST SAYING 🤔

  8. He is out of control orange face clown is not a good businessman he did not finish high school so what else is there to say about this clown he's a criminal with 39 felonies the only reason why they didn't charge him with them felonies was because they knew he would have sent him to jail he would have had no hope he would have been somebody little orange cookie

  9. They need to release that book Epstein because I'm quite sure Trump name is all over the place I mean look every picture you seen of Epstein he was with Trump so what is Trump trying to hide what more is he trying to hide and get away with he needs to be impeached

  10. Why are we surprised this is typical behavior from a racist agenda. Again what you bring us here for, humiliation and hate with disrespect. It's all about jealousy
    better than obviously lack of leadership.. never never to have those qualities of a leader..🏛️🖍️ again when😢😢😢😢👁️

  12. Don't worry The Real Arm Forces of The United States of America would NOT let him serve 1 more term by changing the Construction then he becomes a Dictator, our Honorable Arm Forces wont let it happen….thats why he wants all this republican seats to change The Construction and stay in power ….he said USA would be better without Black people according to his biographer 😂

  13. If white people die as many as black people in these cities, I have a sneaky suspicion you would call it an emergency. I've heard talks about how crimes are also massive in some “red” states; first of all, there are no blue states, there are blue cities. And actually, when you look at those cities where most crimes are coming from heavily populated black neighborhoods. Take St. Louise as an example; for more than a decade, they have been #1 in terms of crimes overall, and where are those crimes coming from? Mostly the College Hill and Peabody-Darst-Webbe area. That isn't a hillbilly red neck area. To fix the problem, we first have to rectify the predicament. It is an emergency in many cities and must be treated as such. San Francisco will probably be next, would you call that racist? Smh

  14. It’s not President Trump that’s out of control, it’s these Democrat-run cities that are out of control, most of them happen to be cities with black mayors.

  15. Blacks if so criminal would have beaten the breaks off the whites, making the slave ships empty. You understand? We would have conquered, but the kings of savagery CONQUERED. Have it been written that slaves relieved themselves on each other for months in ships. Did we fight each other for that happening? No. Did the captives fight in the fields? No. From 1619 to 1930 no crimes committed by blacks. But when we commit crimes today, we are behaving like whites. Whites taught us from how they treated us. We are suffering from CLASSIC brainwashing. PTSD, no therapy ever.
