    1. @Sarah Balcom as a matter of fact you’re posting the phone call transcript, *YOU totally proved I am right about the phone call transcript ! Thank you!* If you are able to count to 250, then you can see that *there will still be more words in between !*
      *You will see that I am right !*

    2. @Rocky Rock Dr Martin Luther King was a great man in many ways, but even he was subject to being deceived ! The Democrats have always given just enough to color people, to keep them on the plantation ! If Joe Biden is elected you won’t hear anything more for the next three years about what he’s going to do for the black people, and then he will shower you with a bunch of promises again ! And then three more years of nothing !

    3. @Sarah Balcom so now you’re mad because I *absolutely totally completely proved you wrong,* and proved that I am right !

      That must be hard liking yourself, when you are deceptive schemer ! (Liking your own comment)

    4. @Christians Pray for USA isn’t your shift almost over troll. Does your Jesus allow you to troll for a pussygrabber. Epstein’s best friend has got you brainwashed.

    1. @Peter Bills Democrat groups have been hiring operatives from Europe, to post and distort comment sections !

    2. @Art K go to a pence rally mother made covid muffins for the staff but they’re sharing with cult45!! No mask required!!

    1. @Erin Bliss the first wave of the virus, there were 12 people, plus the people that Donald Trump brought home from overseas to the military airport quarantine zones, we went all the way down to *ZERO* cases !
      A *second wave of infection came from South Korea,* under Donald Trump’s leadership that *remained relatively small *!
      And then the third wave in New York was *terribly managed by Governor Cuomo,* sending people to a death camps (nursing homes forced to take coronavirus cases, *Governor executive order !* ) So *basically Governor Cuomo is the one most responsible* for the deaths in this nation !

    2. @Erin Bliss your so-called facts are so bad *you don’t even have the right year* !

      *You have proven yourself to be a major joke !*

    3. @Erin Bliss you sound like one of those people that don’t even live in the United States, but are paid by a Democrat group ! *You’re obviously a total fraud* you make up dates on the spot, you obviously have *absolutely no consideration for the truth !*

    1. @William H Music 2020 go park your yt fragility ignorance back over to Qanon, you inbred trained trumpanzee. 😂😂😂

    2. When things were at their very worst:
      2 Suns, Cross in the sky, 2 comets will collide = don`t be afraid – repent, accept Lord`s Hand of Mercy.
      Scientists will say it was a global illusion.
      Beaware – Jesus will never walk in flesh again.
      After WW3 – rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist – the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way.
      Don`t trust „pope“ Francis = the False Prophet
      – will seem to rise from the dead
      – will unite all Christian Churches and all Religions as one.
      One World Religion = the seat of the Antichrist.
      Benedict XVI is the last true pope – will be accused of a crime of which he is totally innocent.

      – banking collapse was deliberately masterminded by the Antichrist

      – Antichrist will step in and create a false peace in the state of Israel by joining them with palestine in an unlikely alliance.

      – „He will recite extracts from My Teachings, which he will passionately proclaim from every secular stage in the world, until people sit up and take notice of him.“

  1. Democracy is in danger. Perhaps this is the main choice in our life. Let’s save democracy! Vote! Do not ignore!

    1. Are you saying let’s vote for a lifelong corrupt politician with dementia?
      tinyurl.com/yyd48zyr 😳

    2. @halalslagt en dansk panser og gør Allah glad one of CNN’s reporters that was fired for being honest about Trump, was at the Trump rally today !

    3. @Wilson Glatt I’ve always wanted to fish Portland’s rivers!!!! Beautiful place. We drove up larch mountain by way of Corbett. Bought me a shirt.

      Went to Oregon City and bought a “you have died of dysentery” oregon trail shirt. It’s epic.

      Wouldn’t ever live in Portland for obvious reasons

    4. @Art K oh Portland is horrid. I live outside of Portland. I do a lot of fishing on the coastal rivers. Big salmon and steelhead here

  2. Voting, voting, voting! Don’t ignore this election. Vote for the blue! The consequences of another 4 years of Trump’s rule will have to be raked up for many decades.

    1. @Erin Bliss You know you are watching fake news *if they did not tell you :*
      The Democrat’s version of the phone call transcript ignores more than 250 words, 6 subjects, 9 people between “I would like you to due US a favor though” and any mention of Joe Biden or his son! Absolutely NO CONNECTION ! (the whole basis of the Democrat case disproven)! *The Democrat’s/fake news version of the phone call transcript is a fraud (fraud) (FRAUD)!* Fake news will not tell you that it was *An attempt to frame the president of the United states !*

    2. @Erin Bliss You know you are watching fake news if they did not show the Devin Nunes and Jim Jordan cross-examinations, where they got *EVERY witness to admit that they have no impeachable evidence !* But yet Adam Schiff with Nancy Polosi’s help, still sent it to the senate, *an attempt to frame the president of the USA !*

    3. @Christians Pray for USA, hey you fascist bag of puke, just stfu!

      Do you know who else tried discrediting journalists?

      Lenin
      Stalin
      Hitler
      Mussolini
      Castro
      Mao
      Idi Amin
      Pol Pot
      Hussein
      Assad
      Putin
      ISIS
      Boku Haram

      Now, gtfoh, you fascist bag of puke!

      Signed,
      An Independent Warrior 🇺🇸

  3. The main feature of Trump, his life and especially his presidency is the bombardment of lies — Trump’s unceasing campaign to convince people of things that aren’t true. Deliberate, significant attempts to deceive and manipulate on a totally different level even the most political of snakes have never seen before. 😵

  4. On one hand you say… “Russians are propagating to Black American men”.
    On the other hand… You have not a thing to say about us!
    The propagating here is the same propaganda we see in Commercials, Movies, MSNBC, etc…
    We hear you.

    1. @keef davis one of CNN’s reporters fired for being honest about Trump, was at the Trump rally today !

    2. @keef davis They literally *_admitted_* that he did not have his hands up. They lied. And MSNBC helped them to lie. MSNBC spread the lie. This is exactly the same as saying that Jussie Smollett was attacked by white supremacists. No bother, that he staged it himself, doesn’t matter. YOU will believe him, because muhrace. Meaning, you are an actual racist, you are dishonest and a liar.

    3. @Hudfarvet er Dansk The physical evidence shows that coward cop ran up and shot Mike Brown in the middle of the street.

  5. Donald tRumps father”‘Fred tRump/dRumphf” was busted for attending a KKK Rally that turned riotous in NYCity. Just google to verify & prove my point that the apple doesn’t fall far from the apple tree!

    1. Barack Mc57 States obama and joe McFish fingers Biden eulogized Robert Byrd a grand wizard of the klan.

      Your point?

    2. @Art K you trained trumpanzee opioid addicts are too ignorant to realize you’re trained. No wonder you pink cretins are being replaced. 😂😂😂

  6. I feel like that time is still the reality of many people. Strides have been made for racial equality but, there’s a long way to go. Thank God for strong women!!!

  7. What a blessing to be able to trace that far back on her mother’s side. Many slaves took on their masters’ names and it was hard to trace. Great story.

  8. I was lucky enough to have spent time with my great great grandmother. She passed away when I was about 8 years old at the age of 95, and my great grandparents raised me and my great grandmother passed away at the age of 95 and my grandmother is 85 and I’m 48

    1. I grew up similar. It was not easy but now i look back and appreciate so much. Esp what immigrants go through, so many Americans don’t know.
