The Tree That Kept Voting For The Axe Because They're Of The Same Tribe; U.S. GOP & Some African Governments Are The Same . Content Warning.
Tuesday, 26 September 2023 By: TB Obwoge I’ve written about Africa for the better part of the last 2 years, no one has ever noticed the similarities of these African countries governments. The soul crushing, lack of humanity, sexism, xenophobia and lack of compassion for their citizens.

Protesters Invited Inside the White House, Fight Each Other Instead
August 7th (Washington, D.C.) – Protestors outside the White House yesterday found themselves the recipients of a unique proposition when the President of the United States invited them inside to discuss their concerns. Unfortunately for them, a lack of cohesion in the crowd made it appear that the opportunity would slip through their fingers. How this rare opportunity to meet with the President came about and the reverberations from the entire escapade has left the protestors, law enforcement officers, and members of the federal government reeling. Details are still emerging, but this is what we know so far.

May 28th (Castleton, VT) – When the undergraduate student union at Castleton University voted to have the President of the United States be their commencement speaker, no one seriously expected the invitation to be accepted and the leader of the free world to appear before them at their little-known small liberal arts college in the middle of the woods of Vermont.

Why Red means Republican and Blue means Democrat in US?
Americans think of red and blue as deeply associated with the Republican and Democratic parties, but that's only been the case since the election of 2000. That's what the election night results looked like on American television. - Kennedy's victory, sir, let me tell you this. If they ever teach this machine to talk, you and I won't work. The widespread use of color television in the late 1960s and 1970s changed everything. But it would take several more decades before the media would adapt to the current color scheme - which rooms are the hardest to change from blue to red? Which ones are easy? -President Obama won all those blue states. -He must turn the voting statuses blue. To understand where this red state, blue state business came from, let's go back to when network television first used color charts to announce election results.

Thomas Sankara - African Leader

President Decrees America is the Most Communist National on Earth
April 11th (Alabaster, AL) – This past Friday, the President of the United States sat down with the largest socialist periodical in America—one that we will refrain from naming in these prestigious pages in order not to lend them any credence and legitimacy. As established during the third day of this administration, the President brought an end to the routine of daily press briefings and regular access to the White House and replaced them with a free-for-all end-of-week one-on-one bonanza. While the leader of the free world was more than happy to spend time with socialists, I would be remiss if I did not point out that the President has still not sat down with yours truly.

For Women's History Month, President Blasts the Rest of the World
March 11th (Santa Rosa, CA) – March is Women’s History Month, which started right here in Santa Rosa as just a single week in 1978. By 1980, the week became recognized at the federal level before expanding to the whole month in 1987. It was a great surprise and honor, then, that the recently installed President of the United States requested to give a speech before the Commission on the Status of Women—which founded and administered the original celebratory week—to commemorate this year’s observances.

The Emergence of a Multipolar World
In the dynamic landscape of global politics, the 21st century has witnessed a transformative shift towards a multipolar world. Traditionally, the world order was dominated by a bipolar structure, with the United States and the Soviet Union as the primary superpowers during the Cold War. However, the collapse of the Soviet Union in the early 1990s marked the end of a bipolar system, giving rise to a unipolar world led by the United States. This unipolar moment was characterized by American hegemony, where the U.S. held unprecedented influence over global affairs.
