A quotation from Frederick Douglass
What, to the American slave, is your 4th of July? I answer: a day that reveals to him, more than all other days in the year, the gross injustice and cruelty to which he is the constant victim. To him, your celebration is a sham; your boasted liberty, an unholy license; your national greatness, swelling vanity; your sounds of rejoicing are empty and heartless; your denunciations of tyrants, brass fronted impudence; your shouts of liberty and equality, hollow mockery; your prayers and hymns, your sermons and thanksgivings, with all your religious parade, and solemnity, are, to him, mere bombast, fraud, deception, impiety, and hypocrisy — a thin veil to cover up crimes which would disgrace a nation of savages.
Frederick Douglass (1817-1895) American abolitionist, orator, writer
Speech (1852-07-05), “What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?” Corinthian Hall, Rochester, New YorkMore about this quote: wist.info/douglass-frederick/8…

When Sen. Peters criticized Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, Kegsbreath pretended that this was a criticism of our soldiers. Sen. Peters corrected this distortion by saying to Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth:
"You are the failure, not the men and women on the front line":

Sen. Susan Collins, an especially dishonest Republican, can vote against Trump, unless Trump needs her vote to win on an issue:
Matthew Yglesias: "A Collins classic here where she joins Democrats in the failed vote to block Trump’s slush fund so she can say she was against it, but when they needed her vote to get it over the top she was there for them."

Politics demands a great capacity for self-deception, which rescues the politician from hypocrisy. He can normally manage to believe what he is saying for the time it takes him to say it. This gives him a certain sincerity even when he is saying opposite things to opposite people.
