SHALL WE ALLOW THIS GREAT UNION AND THE RIGHTS ENSHRINED THEREIN TO BE HELD HOSTAGE BY THE SLAVEDRIVER, WHO VAINLY BEGS THE ASSENT OF THOSE TERRITORIES WE CALL "FREE" TO RETURN TO HIM HIS "PROPERTY", WHICH IS RIGHTLY A MAN? SHALL WE SACRIFICE OUR RIGHTS AS BURNT OFFERINGS UPON THE ALTAR OF TYRANNY?

MY DEAREST ADELAIDE, I WRITE TO YOU WITH A FIRE IN MY HEART. BUT NOT ONE BURNING WITH PASSION FOR YOUR FLESH, THOUGH YOUR BEAUTY SURPASSES WORDS. NAY, I BURN WITH A RIGHTEOUS FURY TO RID THIS GODLY NATION OF THE REBEL MENACE AND BRING EMANCIPATION TO THAT SLUMBERING RACE OF MEN TRAPPED IN BONDAGE.

Why would Eric Adams agree to a Ziwe interview?? Oh, she is going to eat that man alive
