    An AL woman shot a man who’d just raped her. She shot him as he choked her brother, who’d just arrived to help. 48 hrs later, she was charged with murder. Today, she lost her Stand Your Ground Hearing. In Al, women rarely win.

    Some people say the first impeachment actually started on Feb. 8, 1864, when Charles Sumner and Thaddeus Stevens, who almost impeached Andrew Johnson, submitted a constitutional amendment that could've forever eliminated slavery, segregation & discrimination:

    This sentence STILL isn't in the Constitution but Stevens' words are actually included in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. It's why we still have to pass laws against LGBT discrimination and hate crimes, but it was proposed in 150 years ago BEFORE slavery was outlawed

    Aside from banning slavery, Steven's version of the 13th Amendment had one extra clause that scared the fuck out of the moderates and angered Johnson. He didn't think there was ANY way that those Southern States would agree to one extra sentence

    In fact, he and his boys spent the last part of their lives trying to get the word "white" removed from all federal laws. But Johnson didn't like this version of the constitutional amendment. Some people thought that this was why Stevens hated Johnson and vice versa.

    See Thaddeus Stevens didn't want to pass the 13th amendment, which banned slavery He didn't like the 14th amendment making slaves citizens. He didn't like the 15th Amendment giving people the right to vote.

    And so they saved Johnson. But Lyman's moderate homies also battled Thad n'em for something else They EACH wrote their own version of the Fourteenth Amendment Lyman and the moderates won. To be fair, Thaddeus Stevens' radical version was a lot like Lyman's except for one part

    Every Democrat acquitted Johnson but so did 10 Republicans. They were not radical republicans. They were moderates. The moderate Republicans were led by a man named Lyman Turnbull. Lyman's friends thought that Thaddeus Stevens and his squad were too radical

    You see, those people who had lynched blacks, those Klansmen, those former Confederate soldiers had become Southern heroes. And not only did Southern Blacks not get reparations, they had to live in fear.

    Johnson would serve for 2 more years, during which time the KKK ran rampant throughout the South. In 1870, and 1871, as soon as Johnson was out of office, Congress passed the Enforcement Acts, also known as the KKK acts which made racial terrorists a crime. But it was too late.

    Back then, there were 54 Senators (the old racist states hadn't rejoined yet), which meant they needed 36 votes to convict Johnson. They got 35. No senator who voted to acquit Johnson ever held an elective office again.

    ”No Senator who voted to acquit Andrew Johnson ever held an elective office again." ALL persons are equal before the law. Never, ever give up!!

    It's a sign of how crazy the news cycle is right now that the United States three days ago barred immigration from the largest economy in Africa--a quarter of the continent's population is now barred from the US--and almost nobody is talking about it.

    Mueller didn’t save us. The Senate didn’t save us. Pelosi didn’t save us. Schiff didn’t save us. Murkowski didn’t save us. Justice Roberts didn’t save us. Bolton didn’t save us. We, The People, are the only ones who can save ourselves. Register, and others to the polls.

    Just ran into Andrew Yang as he left his caucus night party. I asked him how he was feeling. He looked at me and , threw his hands in the air and yelled, "Victory!"
