Anybody who has been around Jamaicans for extended periods know they
are famous for not taking anybody's shit.
Blanket statement, yes, but I love the woman in the video.
I grew up listening to a lot of stories about how bad the people of Jamaica were and then I read a book and understood the context of those conversations. Coincidentally and ironically, it’s the same reason why I never heard of Haiti: those islands stood as big ass asterisks in the Caribbean for Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade.I have a Jamaican fetish.

And what do we do of the black folks behind the confederate line? Fucking clown.

75% of Americans report soaring prices as Trump claims inflation ‘over’
Exclusive poll: Inflation remains a concern despite president’s pledge to reduce prices on ‘day one’www.theguardian.com
Nine months after Donald Trump took office, promising to reduce prices on “day one”, a clear majority of Americans say their monthly costs have risen by between $100 and $749, according to an exclusive new poll conducted for the Guardian.
The president has continued to insist that there is “virtually no inflation”. “Prices are ‘WAY DOWN’ in the USA,” Trump wrote on social media in late August.
Yet according to a new Harris poll, Americans are still reporting soaring inflation and are increasingly pessimistic about the economy...
BREAKING: NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani stuns Fox News viewers by turning to the camera during an interview to confront Donald Trump directly because he knows that he "may be watching right now."
The future of the Democratic Party is here and he's fearless...
"I just want to speak directly to the president, which is that I will not be a mayor like Mayor Adams who will call you to figure out how to stay out of jail," Mamdani said. "I won’t be a disgraced governor like Andrew Cuomo who will call you to ask how to win this election. I can do those things on my own."
"I will, however, be a mayor who is ready to speak at any time to lower the cost of living. That’s the way that I’m going to lead the city. That's the partnership that I want to build not only with Washington, D.C. but anyone across the country," he added.
Mamdani could not make it any clearer at this point that he's not afraid to stand up to Donald Trump, even as the MAGA president escalates his authoritarian rhetoric and expands his terror campaigns. Trump has repeatedly tried to smear Mamdani as a "communist," which in Republican parlance just means anyone who wants to spend money on the needs of working class Americans instead of on billionaire tax cuts.
Trump is so worried that Mamdani might become mayor of his hometown — forcefully repudiating MAGA kleptocracy and fascism in the process — that he has even threatened to withhold federal funding to the city if he wins. Under saner political conditions, a president abusing his powers to hurt a major American city for partisan purposes would be a career-destroying scandal. Under Trump, it's unfortunately just business as usual.
Thankfully, Mamdani isn't backing down. He's going to continue advocating for the needs of average Americans while exposing Republican corruption.
Please retweet and if you support Zohran!
