I legit teared up. This is amazing, and for such a great moment to happen in the age of Trump truly gives me inspiration.

How the gently caress did it take so long for NATIVE American women to be represented in the House?!

I wonder how many chuds are bitching that they should go back to where they came from.

Did she suddenly act like she was in a blaxploitation movie

The stupid thing, like a typical girl (originally from South Philly, but living on the Mainline), was she was kinda bigoted and didn't appreciate comments that she looked black.

My being at PENN granted me an indulgence from her family, given that I am an MOT.

It's not about being fake in the case of Ariana Grande a it is literally Brown face. She changed how she looks how she sounds everything about herself to fit in more with a black culture because supposedly that will help her sell more records. Others have done this to like Iggy Azalea. We literally allow people walk around in Brown face because they're funking white women

Fair enough. I concede to the fact that these situations are different. How does she get away with it?

My takeaway:

"Hi, we're the Border Patrol and ICE, and we are incompetent and not capable of doing our job, and if you don't approve the wall, we won't do it even harder, and we aren't getting paid either, but gently caress you give us what we want. or we will keep telling Trump to not pay you either until you do it"

gently caress every last one of these people forever.

She wasn't always rich and famous, right? She attempted to cultivate an image that capitalized on appropriation and current trends in order to become rich and famous. Tons of women get called out and fail at this.

I never even knew she was a pale white girl, I only saw her in passing in recent music videos and figured she was Latino or something and changed her name like all celebrities do. Seeing this... I mean I knew how hosed stardom was, but this is just absurd. White people are such an embarrassment.

Constitution posted:

He shall from time to time give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient
