There’s my forever wise, whip-smart, gorg historic FLOTUS..
Still my absolute, absolute favorite person in the entire political, famous people realm…and beyond..
Completely adore her..
Here’s hoping she continues to be her magnificent, unspoiled greatness..
And unless it’s absolutely, absolutely necessary, here’s hoping she passes on fighting anybody else’s battles..
Nobody fought for her…and nobody staked any of their political capital, reputation, popularity, – and certainly, nobody staked their lives fighting for her…
And here’s hoping she completely passes on getting forced to chime in on anything by anyone…and more importantly, by folks who completely disrespected, demeaned and trivialized her…and only remember her when they want to exploit her brilliant, compelling voice and awesome presence and popularity for their own agenda ..but otherwise, insist she’s ‘nobody’… ‘not qualified’..and ‘irrelevant’..
She’s earned the right to enjoy her life to the fullest…and live it well ..and very happily…unencumbered by other people and their agenda..
May God continue to bless, guide, guard, defend and protect her and her family..
AMEN
Amen.

Thank you, SG2.

Y’all, it is really getting to be too much, just too damn much. Now they’re staging stunts at NFL games for their racist supporters.
Pence should be required to reimburse the taxpayers.
Black people are not going to accept injustice, racism or police brutality. We will #TakeAKnee ’til free.

The Trump-Russia dossier: why its findings grow more significant by the day
As US officials investigate potential collusion between Trump and Moscow, the series of reports by the former UK intelligence official Christopher Steele are casting an ever darker shadow over the president
Saturday 7 October 2017 09.41 EDT
Nine months after its first appearance, the set of intelligence reports known as the Steele dossier, one of the most explosive documents in modern political history, is still hanging over Washington, casting a shadow over the Trump administration that has only grown darker as time has gone by.
It was reported this week that the document’s author, former British intelligence official, Christopher Steele, has been interviewed by investigators working for the special counsel on Russian interference in the 2016 election.
The Senate and House intelligence committees are, meanwhile, asking to see Steele to make up their own mind about his findings. The ranking Democrat on the House committee, Adam Schiff, said that the dossier was “a very important and useful guide to help us figure out what we need to look into”.
The fact that Steele’s reports are being taken seriously after lengthy scrutiny by federal and congressional investigators has far-reaching implications.
Then leave, muthaphucka.

This was staged at Trump’s request.
It was a damn stunt planned to rile racial tensions at BLACK NFL PLAYERS. Beyond the pale. He knows darn well protest is about police brutality. Pence and Trump planned this ISH. The mofos were trying to stir up racial tensions. We are dealing with real evil here.

I still am thinking about Michelle Obama after listening to her interview with Shonda Rhimes. I love Michelle Obama and her caring and her wisdom. She gives so much of herself to help others!!!
Yeah, I miss having a First Lady. But it’s good to know that the Obamas intend to focus on developing young leaders in their post-presidency work.
Good Morning, Everyone 😐😐😐
Happy Birthday, Ruby Bridges. Thank you for all of your contributions and advocacy.

Definitely one of the most iconic pictures of the 20th century, little Ruby Bridges going to school with Federal marshals. And she is so adorable, all dressed up, carrying her book satchel.
A very brave little girl.
Good Morning to all of you :)
Ametia, thanks for posting Michelle Obama’s interview. It is super!
Good Morning, Yahtzee, Rikyrah & 3 Chics Family!
