Prayers for Giulliani
Timothy Birdnow
Everyone please pray for Rudy Giulliani.
A spokesman for the former mayor and prosecutor confirmed Mr. Giulliani is in the hospital and it is quite serious. He did not specify what medical condition is involved.

From Joe Pags' talk show this afternoon: Rudy Giuliani (Tim, please get the spelling right! There's one "l".) was out with the troops during 9/11 and got some pulmonary problems as a result. Currently he is suffering from that, but according to Joe (who is a personal friend of Rudy), who has been in contact with Rudy's family, he is on the mend. God bless America's mayor!

Here is a complete list of left-wing political violence that has occurred since President Trump took office again.
When you look at the scope and scale of the violence a very disturbing and frightening pattern emerges.
Democrats and their allies fully intend on ramping it up ahead of the mid-term elections because they believe the chaos works in their favor.
It is up to us to prove them wrong.
Here is the list of left-wing political violence in the United States since January 2025:
Jan 27, 2025 — Washington, DC: Riley/Ryan English arrested at Capitol with Molotov cocktails and knives, plotted to kill Treasury Secretary Bessent, Defense Secretary Hegseth, Speaker Johnson, and burn down the Heritage Foundation. Cited Luigi Mangione as inspiration.
Jan–April 2025 — Nationwide: 20+ attacks on Tesla dealerships, vehicles, and charging stations across multiple states tied to opposition to Elon Musk and the Trump administration.
March 30, 2025 — Albuquerque, NM: New Mexico Republican Party headquarters set on fire, "ICE = KKK" spray-painted nearby.
April 13, 2025 — Harrisburg, PA: Cody Balmer firebombed Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro's residence with Molotov cocktails on the first night of Passover, citing Shapiro's stance on Gaza.
May 17, 2025 — Palm Springs, CA: Guy Bartkus detonated a car bomb at the American Reproductive Centers fertility clinic, injuring four. DOJ classified motive as "anti-pro-life," antinatalist, and promortalist. Co-conspirator Daniel Park supplied 270 lbs of ammonium nitrate.
May 21, 2025 — Washington, DC: Elias Rodriguez shot and killed two Israeli Embassy staffers outside the Capital Jewish Museum, shouted "Free Palestine."
June 1, 2025 — Boulder, CO: Mohamed Soliman attacked a march for Israeli hostages with Molotov cocktails and a homemade flamethrower, killing one and injuring 14.
June 11, 2025 — Portland, OR: Trenten Barker set fire to the Portland ICE facility during an anti-ICE protest. Three arrested. Hundreds of arrests followed at the same site through 2025.
June 2025 — New York City: Eleven NYPD squad cars burned in arson attack.
July 4, 2025 — Alvarado, TX: Coordinated armed ambush at Prairieland ICE Detention Center. Eleven attackers in body armor used fireworks to lure officers out, then opened fire. Officer shot in the neck. DOJ filed terrorism charges; suspects identified as members of the "North Texas Antifa Cell."
July 7, 2025 — McAllen, TX: Ryan Mosqueda opened fire on Border Patrol annex, injured three. Killed by Border Patrol. Motive disputed (family cited mental health).
Aug 25, 2025 — Dallas, TX: Bratton Wilkinson arrested at Dallas ICE office claiming to have a bomb in his backpack.
Sept 10, 2025 — Orem, UT: Tyler Robinson assassinated Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University. Utah Gov. Cox said Robinson held "leftist ideology."
Sept 24, 2025 — Dallas, TX: Joshua Jahn opened sniper fire on Dallas ICE field office, killed two detainees, wounded a third, then killed himself. Bullets engraved "ANTI-ICE." Notes: "I want to cause terror." Had researched Kirk assassination.
Throughout 2025 — Nationwide: DHS reported 275 assaults on ICE officers (up from 19 in 2024), 66 vehicular ramming attacks, 8,000% increase in death threats. Doxxing campaigns by Portland-based Rose City Counter-Info and Crustian Daily targeted ICE agents and their families with home addresses and "NO PEACE FOR ICE" fliers.
Jan 7, 2026 — Minneapolis, MN: ICE agent shot and killed U.S. citizen Renée Good during Operation Metro Surge. Triggered nationwide protests, statewide general strike, and intensified anti-ICE confrontations across Twin Cities.
Jan 24, 2026 — Minneapolis, MN: Federal agent killed U.S. citizen Alex Pretti, 37, second fatal ICE shooting in Minneapolis in two weeks. (Note: these are shootings BY ICE, but they triggered the protest wave fueling further anti-ICE violence.)
Throughout Jan–April 2026 — Nationwide: Continued vehicular ramming attacks against ICE/CBP, ongoing Portland ICE facility breaches and arson attempts, sustained doxxing and harassment campaigns. Cumulative ICE assault numbers reached 1,347% increase per DHS.
April 7, 2026 — Ontario, CA: NFI Industries warehouse worker Chamel Abdulkarim, 29, intentionally set fire to a 1.2-million-square-foot Kimberly-Clark distribution center storing Kleenex, Huggies, and Scott products. Total facility loss; $500–600 million in damages. Anti-capitalist motive; suspect compared himself to Luigi Mangione, sent texts saying "I just cost these [expletive] billions" and "All you had to do was pay us enough to live." Federal arson charges.
April 25, 2026 — Washington, DC: Cole Allen, 31, charged with attempting to assassinate President Trump at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. Allen was a Democratic activist, attended No Kings protests, donated to Harris campaign. Wounded a Secret Service agent.

What did we miss?
End
And the liberals say TRUMP is the problem!

The Democratic Party Left Dr. King
Timothy Birdnow
Actor Nick Searcy gets it:
·
I spent 13 years, from 1986 to 1999, performing as an actor in the National Black Touring Circuit's production of I HAVE A DREAM, telling the story of Martin Luther King Jr. I played all the white characters, and was the only white member of the cast.
It wasn't a year long gig: we went out in January and February, usually, centered around MLK's birthday and black history month. When I first started doing it, it was my only paying gig, and I was so grateful for it.
But even after my film career got going, I did it whenever I could, because I loved the people I worked with and I loved the message we spread. And the audiences loved the show. It brought the right mix of emotion and message, and honored Dr. King's work. We even performed at the MLK center in Atlanta, for Coretta King herself. I will never forget meeting her.
It remains my longest and best theatrical experience. I still have a good friend from that production. Woodie King Jr. was the producer, a legendary giant of New York theatre, who just passed away within the last year.
The demand for the show dried up. Why?
Because the Democrat party no longer supports Dr. King's vision for this country as a color blind society.
Without racism as an issue, the Democrat party has nothing.
MLK's dream is not just useless to them. It is the exact opposite of what they want, which is to divide us by race and pit us against one another to increase their power through grievance, hate, and division.
The modern Democrat party no longer reveres Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
He wasn't racist enough for them.
Dr. King had a dream, but that dream no longer suits the Democrat party.
And in fact, if you look back through the history of the party -- perhaps it never did.

"86/47" in Lincoln Pool
Timothy Birdnow
See - other people knew what James Comey meant!
I suspect we'll catch these clowns; I have no doubt Washington has plenty of cameras that will allow them to be identified.
I wonder; where was Hakim Jeffries, Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, and maybe even Mitch McConnell?

Thom Tillis Defends Comey's Use of "86"
Timothy Birdnow
I wish he would return to the restaurant industry where he belongs. I'm sure he makes a much better dishwasher or busboy than a Senator.
The expression may or may not have come from the restaurant industry, but it is urban slang for murdering someone and Tillis knows it - as did everyone else, which is why Comey did it in the first place.
I doubt Comey will be convicted on this but it will force him to either admit he lied about "finding" the shells or he will have to committ perjury. The more we can get him to talk the more likely it is he will dig a hole for himself.
OH, and he has to spend money and waste time defending himself. The process is the punishment.
In a gentler time I would abhor such tactics but now we have little choice. The aggressors set the rules of engagement in any war, and they have made it plain as day we are in a war. They chose to go here; we need to adapt their tactics. For decades we said we wanted to "be the bigger man" and avoided a tit-for-tat because we didn't want it to come to this. But it vame to this years ago and we are only fighting back now in kind.
Comey is guilty, even if it isn't much of a crime, and Comey was guilty of some really bad crimes he's never had to pay for. So I have no problem with going after him here. I just wish we would have gone after him much harder earlier.
The guy needs to go to prison. Until we start handing out long prison sentences to these people they will keep doing this sort of thing.

Certainly Comey is guilty of much more than "he sells sea shells by the sea shore." I can't figure why they're going after him for this penny-ante stuff. From the start, he was a lousy FBI head, and as soon as Trump showed up, Comey had it in for him. I'm sure they could find twenty things to indict Comey on.

They are probably working on it right now. But you know Dana they want to get started with SOMETHING. I agree; this will go nowhere. But hopefully it will shake some things loose.

When, indeed -- leaving aside the current Mr. Patel -- was there a decent head of the FIB... er, excuse me, the FBI? I'm trying to think. Certainly not Fay Wray. And certainly not anybody appointed by a Democrat.
And because this is a "family blog," we'll refrain from discussing the original director, "Jedgar" Hoover, as Lily Tomlin used to call him in her hilarious telephone operator skit. My wife and I have been reading an absorbing book about code breaking during WW II and how the FBI did its best to butt into it, and caused a lot of trouble in the process. Martha's been reading the book aloud to me and always calls him Jedgar.

The SPLC and Bank Fraud
Timothy Birdnow
How the Southern Poverty Law Center committed
bank fraud.
From Bits About Money:
The financial industry understands itself to be an arm of the government. We were inducted into this service other-than-willingly through the ordinary operation of law and regulation.
This is uncontroversial and unsurprising to insiders.
A claim which will be more surprising: some regulated financial institutions have delegated authority for account- and transaction-level decisioning to a non-profit.
Another: that non-profit includes a private intelligence agency, which runs covert assets, publishes intelligence estimates, develops target lists, and communicates them to decisionmakers.
Still another: the non-profit organized a coalition of the willing as an outgrowth of its intelligence agency. The willing non-profits, that is. The coalition engaged in a years-long campaign to coerce financial infrastructure and other firms to give them the ability to direct accounts to be closed. The infrastructure built to do this against domestic terrorists was applied to an American politician’s fundraising efforts, and no one seemed to think that was odd.
Last week, the DOJ unsealed an indictment against the organizing non-profit for bank fraud. This was based, in part, on how it paid the intelligence agency’s covert assets.
They likely developed evidence for that indictment using the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) mandatory reporting regime.
We begin, as always, with the bank fraud.
This is a lengthy article but worth your time.

Democrats Come Down in Furious Wrath for they Know their Times is Short
Timothy Birdnow
The exodus of people from blue states and the recent redistricting is going to have profound impacts on who holds power and may well lead to a GOP Golden Age.
From Lifezette:
Former Trump deputy assistant and Idaho Solicitor General Theo Wold said recent developments in redistricting efforts could have long-term effects on the balance of power in the U.S. House of Representatives, with potential shifts not fully realized until the next decade.
Wold discussed the issue in the context of ongoing legal and political battles over congressional maps, noting that the immediate election cycles may not reflect the full impact of current changes.
"The other part of this story is not all of this is going to play out this year. I mean, the maximum advantage that Republicans may ultimately get out of this is going to be next year and for the 28 election, and probably for the 2030 redraw,” Wold said.
He's probably right and if the GOP doesn't blow it (something they are very, very good at doing) this could lead to a political catastrophe' for the Democrats, who are hated worse than even the Republicans by voters. It's not just immediate; it's over the long haul.
That is why the Democrats will do whatever it takes to win Congress in this next election; their very survival depends on it. They will find new and creative ways to cheat. They will use violence. They will do whatever they have to do to keep their party alive.
It's going to get coyote ugly.
If they lose and the trajectory of American politics doesn't shift considerably they will lose a great deal of power and without power they can't win. Power is what allows them to control the narrative, to control who counts the votes, to control all the levers that operate the political machines. They know this and are desperate to reverse the trends but won't be able to without gaining control of the states and Congress. If they win in November they will take steps to build a political machine unlike anything ever seen, and will make it impossible for any but the tired old Republicats to win office. MAGA will be exterminated.
That's why you see insane rantings from guys like James Carville, who always ranted a lot but made sense. Now he's completely full of rage and venom and would shoot President Trump if he had the chance. Carville didn't used to be like that. He's gotten that way because he thought, like so many Democrats, that his party were in the ascendancy and about to win the whole enchilada when Trump came along and upended everything. Now the Republicans are in the catbird seat and could wipe the Democrats out and Carville is beside himself. This wasn't the way it was supposed to happen.
That is, of course, if the Republicans don't screw it all up. Their refusal to pass the SAVE America Act and a host of other acts of cowardice could still lead to a loss in November and the return of the Sith - and with them all the nasty things come back, the impeachments, the investigations, the works.
Carvile predicted the Democrats would wind up in eternal power because of demographic changes to the U.S. Guess what? He was right but wrong about who would benefit. Demographics are going our way.
Woe unto the inhabitants of the Earth, and particularly the U.S. if the Democrats win back power. Like the Book of Revelations says "for Satan has come down to you in furious wrath for he knows his time is short".

Jeeves is Dismissed
Timothy Birdnow
This is kind of sad.
When I first got online we used Ask Jeeves all the time and my wife loved it - we never used Google or Yahoo. I think she liked the Butler mascot. Anyway, it's sad to lose another search engine, thus strengthening Google's dominance even more.
There ae so many defunct search engines - MSN, Jeeves, Alta Vista, the dog bone one (can't remember what that was called exactly), etc. Unfortunately they all started using Google to get their search results, meaning you always got the same stuff no matter which engine you used. It shut conservatives out and always Wikipedia came up on top, the corrupt and biased Wikipedia.
There were conservative efforts to make a right wing search engine but they always lacked adequate funding (while Google had been funded by the CIA and wound up on top thanks to government money). Also, Conservapedia recently failed, leaving us without a solid rebuttal to Wiki.
So even though we are starting to make headway in the culture war we are losing access to information and that will only metastasize. Facebook is back to shadow-banning and pulling dirty tricks on conservatives, I might add, even while that duplicitous weasel Zuckerberg has been pretent-cozying up to President Trump.
Be that as it may I'm still just sad to see the demise of Ask. It's the end of an era.

The Bing search engine has recently invaded my computer and I am having a hell of a time getting rid of it. It adds geegaws to and opens new tabs in my browser, and even opens whole new pages, all when I am not, and have not indicated that I am intending to search for anything. A pox on Microsoft and all its houses.

Kemp Refuses to Redistrict Georgia
Timothy Birdnow
Georgia Governor Brian "Inspector" Kemp is at it again; the Republican Governor, after rushing to redistrict Georgia based on a court ruling that required a gerrymandered majority black district three years ago is
refusing to call a special session of the legislature to redraw the state map and return to the old district scheme.
Yes, this is the same Brian Kemp who, along with the Secretary of State, cost President Trump the election of 2020 and thus started our long national nightmare by refusing to look into blatant election fraud and find a number of missing votes that would have put President Trump over the line.
Caroline Wren
@CarolineWren
After a District Judge ruled in 2023 that Georgia’s congressional map violated the Voting Rights Act, Governor Kemp immediately called a special session to ADD a new Black-majority congressional district in Atlanta.
"The court ruled; Georgia will redraw.”
Governor Kemp jumps into action when it harms Republicans and delays to act when it helps.
Quote
Greg Bluestein
@bluestein
·
May 1
Just in: Gov. Kemp won’t cancel Georgia’s May 19 primary or rush to impose new political maps for this year’s elections. But Kemp also signaled to the @ajc that he could still call lawmakers back to Atlanta this year to redraw boundaries for 2028. #gapol
https://ajc.com/politics/2026/05/brian-kemp-rules-out-canceling-primary-using-new-maps-in-2026/
Why not do it now? Why wait until '28? I would argue it is to screw over President Trump once again. Kemp wants GOP control of Congress, just not now while Trump is the President.
Brian Kemp is the guy who could barely beat STACEY ABRAMS for crying out loud and yet he's going to screw over the Republican party, the voters of Georgia, and the President of the United States.
BTW a lot of commenters on the article point out Kemp's daughter's boyfriend died under suspicious circumstances in a car accident - and Hemp, er, Kemp had been calling for an audit up until then. Suddenly he changed his tune. Coincidence? Or was it "message received and understood"? Kemp also has some shady business dealings with the People's Republic of China. Take from that what you will.

Ve Heil, Right in Graham Platner's Face
Timothy Birdnow
"A lot of these terrible groups like Code Pink and a lot of the other ones that are strongly aligned to the CCP, without a doubt, they’re being financed.
It’s ironic, these kinds of protests are being funded by billionaires against billionaires. I don’t know if they realize the irony in many of those things right now. And, now, there is kind of a small Communist takeover in Maine.
Platner, he’s already announced that he’s an avowed Communist. He’s made that statement, and he put that online. Now, he’s going to be the Democratic nominee.
So there is a [resurgence of] socialism, and that’s become more and more a part of it. And now there’s more, it’s like a marriage of the Palestinian, the anti-ICE, the abolish ICE, and now turning it into like an orgy of socialism here and that’s sad.
Because it’s supposed to be about labor, like unions. I am absolutely a proud pro-union Democrat, but the kinds of mess that are you see showing up in many of them, that is the worst impulses that our party continues, we just [can’t seem to] resist those things."
Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa on Jesse Waters Primetime
Graham Platner, the Senatorial candidate for the Democrats in Maine, also has a Nazi tattoo which he got while serving in the military.
Nazis and Communists (Platner is an avowed Communist by his own admission) are flip sides of the same coin.
In Mr. Platner's honor I give you a song by Spike Jones that appeared in a
now legendary Disney Donald Duck cartoon. (The song is at the beginning so you don't have to watch the whole cartoon.) Here are the lyrics:
When der Fuehrer says we ist de master race,
We heil (pffft) heil (pffft) right in der Fuehrer's face,
Not to love der Fuehrer is a great disgrace,
So we heil (pffft) heil (pffft) right in der Fuehrer's face.
When Herr Goebbels says we own the world and space,
We heil (pffft) heil (pffft) right in Herr Goebbels' face.
When Herr Göring says they'll never bomb dis place,
We heil (pffft) heil (pffft) right in Herr Goering's face.
Ist we not the supermen?
Aryan pure supermen?
Ja we ist the supermen,
super-duper supermen!
Is this Nazi land so good?
Would you leave it if you could?
Ja this Nazi land is good,
We would leave it if we could!
We bring to the world New Order
Heil Hitler's world New Order
Everyone of foreign race
will love der fuehrer's face,
when we bring to the world disorder!
When der Fuehrer says we ist de master race,
we heil (pffft) heil (pffft) right in der Fuehrer's face.
Not to love der Fuehrer is a great disgrace,
So we heil (pffft) heil (pffft) right in der Fuehrer's face,
So we heil (pffft) heil (pffft) right in der Fuehrer's face.

Ah, Spike Jones! Those were the days. During the war there was a disc jockey in Buffalo, NY who used to play that song every day, saying "If they win, I'm sure they'll come after me as one of the first."

Majority of Americans Blame Trump for High Gas Prices
Timothy Birdnow
I don't doubt it with the media blaming him night and day.
Granted the data guru in question is Harry Enten from CNN, so take this with a grain of salt. CNN is one of the prime accusers of President Trump.
"Seventy-seven percent of Americans blamed Trump for high gas prices following the launch of Operation Epic Fury against Iran on Feb.28, which is higher than the blame former Presidents George W. Bush, Barack Obama and Joe Biden received during their administrations.
In 2005, 71% of Americans blamed Bush for higher gas prices, while 64% and 70% blamed Obama and Biden, respectively."
Even though gas prices are still considerably lower than under Biden, who was not in a war that was driving up prices. Trump had this as a side-effect of a necessary and proper war to stop Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons - Biden purposel drove the price of oil up to appease the Climate Change kooks.
Eighty percent of Independents blame Trump for high gas prices but a majority of Republicans do as well.
We have to get gas prices back down soon or this is going to really hurt us in the midterms - something Iran is counting on, which is why they keep stalling.

Why Palestinians Reject Peace With Israel
James Doogue
Many surveys demonstrate that a large number of younger people in the West, do not know Palestinians have been offered their own independent state multiple times — on terms far more generous than the original 1947 UN Partition Plan that was supposed to take effect when Britain left Mandated Palestine.
At the Camp David Summit mediated by Bill Clinton in 2000, it is known that Israel's Prime Minister Ehud Barak had made Palestinian Authority President Yasir Arafat an unprecedented offer. This included:

Dem Congressman Calls for Death Penalty for Hegseth
Timothy Birdnow
They have actually gone there. Yes, they have.
Eric Daugherty
@EricLDaugh
WTF!? Rep. Seth Moulton (D) suggests SecWar Pete Hegseth could be EXECUTED for "WAR CRIMES"
EXPEL HIM NOW.
"In WWII, Allies tried Nazi submarine captains for doing this exact same thing. And guess what the conclusion was? They got EXECUTED. Listen to THAT, Mr. Secretary!"
Absolutely demented and insane.
Seth Moulton undoubtedly supports abortion on demand; maybe we should charge him with Crimes Against Humanity and seek the death penalty.

I'm concerned about what's gonna happen with the midterms. Different polls I see are indicating that Trump is is better shape than many believe. I think the main issue is gas prices.
I think he needs to find a way to drop something heavy -- not a nuke but something short of that -- on Tehran. Too many of the biggies in Iran still think they are running the show, and need to be disabused of that fantasy.

Jersey Vote Fraud
Timothy Birdnow
Well, why not? They got away with this in 2020 after all.
Henrilynn Ibezim pled guilty to forging a thousand fake voter registrations. He didn't do that because he needed something to keep himself busy.
Oh, and New Jersey also just saw four illegal aliens
charged with voting in multiple elections.
No vote fraud in America? Ri-ight.

Appeals Court Sides with State over Abortion Pill Ban
Timothy Birdnow
Even though this will be appealed a win's a win.
A teenage kid can't buy a pack of cigarettes without showing I.D. and proving she's of legal age but she can order an abortion pill online in violation of state law and that is supposed to be fine.
The abortion pill has all sorts of potential side-effects and could cause harm to the mother. It CLEARLY causes harm to the baby, but here you have liberals pushing for unrestricted medication to murder a child.
I needed a CPAP facemask and tried to order one online. No dice; I had to show my prescription from the doctor to just get a mask for use with my machine. But a girl can get a pill she is going to injest to kill her baby. And she can buy it with her smart phone. Crazy.
Hopefully this ban will remain in place permanently.

An Historic Opportunity: Blacks Abandoning Democrats, Moving to GOP
Timothy Birdnow
Trump and MAGA have made big inroads into the black vote before the November midterms.
FTA:
He (CNN analyst Harry Enten) noted that Trump’s approval rating among black Americans went from 12 percent in his first term to 16 percent in his second. "He’s gaining ground,” Enten pointed out.
"And you say this isn't that big of a shift but I will tell you Republicans absolutely love this shift that's going on because Democrats have had such a long-term advantage,” the analyst said. "The fact that he is actually gaining ground versus where he was in term number one, this has major implications for elections down the line.”
Enten speculated that this shift "could have major ramifications and help put Republicans over the top at a number of Southern places in midterm elections” and that this is "part of a bigger trend” because "Donald Trump’s Republican Party is absolutely gaining ground.”
He noted that the GOP itself has also gained traction in the black community. He noted that during Trump’s first term, Democrats had a 63-point advantage over Republicans. Now, that number has dropped to 51 points.
So how does the GOP gain ground to where they are essentially neck-and-neck with the Democrats but Trump only rose from 12 to 16%? I don't believe that; he's much higher, I am convinced.
Trump is the kind of guy black folks would like; he is forever being hounded "by the Man" and he is scrappy and fights back. He's also treated them like equals, with respect, something the Democrats never do, and he's seen to it they have gained a lot of jobs and done well. He's prioritized black Americans over illegal aliens. these numbers are correct about Trump they should be much higher. MUCH higher.
The Democrats wrote the black vote off sometime in the recent past and they were once the cornerstone of the Democratic voting block. Now the Dems are shooting for Hispanics and illegal aliens and simply don't care about the black community any longer.
All of this is looking to create a split between the Democrats and the black community It's going to be slow, as black folks vote Democrat as did their fathers. But we must remember the Republicans owned the black vote from the time of Lincoln until FDR, and in fact the Democrats were the ones who fought against black people in the race riots of the twenties while Republicans supported and defended them.
In 1917 a number of factories in East St. Louis hired black southerners to fill labor shortages. These blacks had been encouraged to come up by the Republican Party, who hoped to capitalize on their loyalty to the GOP and turn a strongly Democratic county Republican. Many black workers came to replace striking union workers in 1916. Then in 1917 the Aluminum Ore Company went on strike and management brought in black people as replacements.
The end result was a series of race riots, culminating in a very nasty one where a lynch mob of white predominantly Eastern European immigrants rampaged through the community. Many blacks, in fear for their lives, tried to escape by crossing bridged into Missouri but were turned back by St. Louis City police, forcing many of them to lose their lives.
The end result was between forty and a hundred and fifty black people lost their lives (the accounts vary) in one of the nastiest race riots in America.
What's the point? The point is that these blacks were almost all Republicans, which played no small part in the tragedy; local politicians whipped up anger against the blacks because they wanted to drive them out and thus retain power. Those politicians were almost all Democrats.
Back then it was the GOP who was seen as the defender of and friend to the black community.
Roosevelt changed all that buy the oldest and most direct of methods - he just bought the black vote with social welfare programs.
The black community has been in the pocket of the Democrats ever since and it is more a relligion than a political party for many black people. But nothing lasts forever.
MAGA is drawing black folks and as time goes by and their positions improve thanks to Trumpian policies we will likely draw in still more. Especially since the Democrats have made it quite clear that blacks are second class citizens to the arriving illegal aliens.
We have an historic opportunity and we must not waste it.
