There was no student debt loan relief.

Slavery was abolished in Europe several hundred years ago and was officially abolished in the US in 1865.

Very few countries in the Muslim world have officially abolished slavery and those who did, did it in the late 20th century.

In Mauritania, slavery was officially criminalized as late as 2007.

I am in no way trying to undermine the horrible crime that was the Trans-Atlantic black slave trade.

All I am trying to understand, is why the Arabo-Muslim black slave trade, which lasted much longer, had a much wider scope and killed millions of blacks more than its American counterpart is a taboo and is not taught in the West, be it in America or Europe.

The silence on this horrific historical event is downright criminal.

I well understand that there is the fear of confronting the Muslim world, knowing that the “religion of peace” is usually very violent in its responses, but I do believe that the victims and their descendants need some closure.

The FSB and CIA collided to take the miney?

There might have been a pittance of money handed out, but only to say it was done.

Billions of dollars is not a "pittance."

LOS ANGELES, CA — Mainstream media outlets warned this week that if former President Trump is re-elected, he might indict his political enemies, imprison opposing journalists, and change the voting rules of future elections to favor his party.

"If none of the Democrats' 73 indictments against Trump work, Trump might gain the power to have political opponents indicted," warned MSNBC commentator Rachel Maddow. "It's terrifying to think what could happen if a President were to wield the power to bankrupt opponents with bogus charges or intimidate journalists with legal threats. We are talking a danger the likes of which we have never, ever seen."

Other outlets were reportedly quick to also sound the alarm, with CNN running a four-hour segment on how the DOJ must jail Republicans in order to keep Republicans from gaining the power to jail political opponents. CBS News, having recently seized confidential records from a journalist, called for the imprisonment of any journalist who does not write what the government tells them to write. "It's the only way to stop Trump from threatening journalists," explained CBS News President Ingrid Ciprian-Matthews. "We have to bend or break every moral and ethical rule in existence to keep Trump from breaking the rules."

AOC got heckled out of a theater last night, but hey, she said protests should make people uncomfortable!

I still don't understand why it didn't work for you before.

How do we get rid of our oppressors?

Any Never Trumper who would vote for such a screeching maniac is suicidal. The night’s nadir? Joe, of the Hunter-Biden family consortium, damned the money-grubbing “rich” who “don’t pay their fair share of taxes”—all of this when his own son is now facing multiple felony counts for not paying any income tax at all! And Joe himself has received lots of family money without paying tax on such “loan repayments”.

Not only is it utterly outrageous that a Gold Star parent was arrested and charged for an understandable (and, yes, valid) emotional outburst, it gets worse.

It gets worse when we understand that Biden was late to the State of the Union because of hoards of Palestinian activists blocking roads ... again ... without consequences. It gets worse when Joe Biden opened the speech by blithering on about January 6, saying that "political violence has absolutely no place in America" while his own Vice President bailed out BLM rioters. And it gets worse when we notice that Joe Biden ends every speech with "may God protect our troops."

Perhaps not leaving them to die in Afghanistan for no reason whatsoever would make God's job a little easier?

Thursday night proved that you can riot in the streets screaming "Black Lives Matter," or shut down the entire city with impunity if you're waving a Palestinian flag, but if you're a grieving father who yells the wrong words at the president, you'll be arrested.
