In case you didn’t know…..

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassination_threats_against_Barack_Obama

From the wikipedia page from above: “ Secret Service protection for Obama began after the Senator received a death threat in 2007, while serving as the junior Senator of Illinois and running for president. This marked the earliest time a candidate received such protection before being nominated.

In case you decided to skip reading the link. 

Also, President Obama actually works from home, since the Oval Office is in White House (The West Wing).

Their prime minister may ride a cute little bike, but their royal family rides around in a gold carriage (paid for by colonialism; just like the US, their nation owes its wealth to exploited black and brown people) decorated with pictures of slaves working to fuel the empire and bowing down to a white woman.

I think our president’s limo is just a tad less offensive.

SHOTS FIRED

the dutch were considered some of the most ruthless when it came to slavery in the americas so dont start congratulating them for hiding history better

I love this post, and it’s a pretty prime example of not taking anything at face value. Always dig a little deeper.
