Even though 3Chics Politico is written and curated by three women: Ametia, Rikyrah, and SouthernGirl2, I must nominate this as one of the most engaging blogs I've found. Devoted to politics and culture, these three shine a light on contemporary life with humor and spirit.

First they took President Obama’s photo from his Inauguration and used it as Trump’s background on his Twitter profile and now they’ve copied President Obama’s cake. Thieves!

It’s so creepy…they were even mimicking everything our POTUS and FLOTUS did during their inaugural dance..
The kisses, the waves..every gesture..except it was such a terrible imitation….

These stills and memes are only making the right-wingers attack her even more SG…
And some of the memes attached to the still captures are not reflective of what was in fact actually happening…
My concern is that social media is currently brimming over with different such stills of her….and even though most people in that inauguration audience have similar expressions, she’s the only one being passed around…
She’s being used and abused as cover by even those who won’t defend her from the maligning and dehumanizing attacks that have ensued..
I think she deserves a break from the mindless attacks on her, and these memes aren’t helping..
She has not been protected – not even by those eagerly passing around the memes, hiding their own agenda behind her picture..
She can’t keep being heroine and whipping boy for everyone…this black woman needs to be doted on and taken care of for a change..

Warning – those of you who unfollowed the POTUS AND FLOTUS AND Vice President Twitter accounts:
They are claiming people back as followers.
You must BLOCK THEM in order for it to be permanent.
Is Mazola stepford wife?
I remember 8 years ago when my First Couple saw the Bushes off. I recorded that whole day. Ahhhhhh what sweet memories.
Michelle & President Obama are back to using @MichelleObama and @BarackObama Twitter handles again. They’ve unveiled a new website too and tweeted about it today. Go sign up.

A presidential giant exits the stage
01/20/17 04:30 PM
By Steve Benen
Presidents are often judged by a historical shorthand that highlights their most historic achievements. Abraham Lincoln, for example, won the Civil War and signed the Emancipation Proclamation, Franklin Roosvelet created the New Deal, rescued the country from the Great Depression, created Social Security, and won World War II.
These are the kinds of successes that put a president in the pantheon of American leaders of legendary consequence.

Barack Obama departs with legacy of accomplishment
As President Obama becomes former President Obama, the debate can now begin in earnest about his tenure. When that historical shorthand is applied to his terms, what will include? How will it compare to those who came before him?
I’m reminded of a piece Paul Krugman wrote in the fall of 2014, a month before the GOP took complete control of Congress, when Obama’s standing wasn’t nearly as strong as it is now.
Amen!
This is so hard to watch :(
