Braying Jenny

“Let me explain something to white people. Our hair comes out of our head naturally in a curly pattern, so when we’re straightening it to follow your beauty standards, we are trapped by the straightness. … Braids are for y'all so we can work harder and focus on the work. … Don’t tell me how to wear my hair. Don’t wonder about it. Don’t touch it.” —Michelle Obama

“As we saw in this past election, sadly, we ain’t ready [for a woman president]. That’s why I’m like, don’t even look at me about running because you all are lying. You’re not ready for a woman.

Then and Now

“Three generations ago, a smaller, poorer, but wiser America properly solved its immigration problem at Ellis Island — welcoming in immigrants orderly and legally with health and background screenings. In contrast, during the Biden years, we, in our arrogance and affluence, engaged in a great experiment — or rather misadventure. Never in our history has the U.S. been home to roughly 53 million foreign-born residents.” —Victor Davis Hanson
