They forgot O'Bama was Irish.

St. Patrick's Day, like Christmas and Easter, are religious holidays. Martin Luther King Day is a national holiday.

The whitest white holiday ever. If it were an actual color it’d be translucent

Supposedly because the Irish don't exclude other groups like they do.🙄

St. Patrick’s Day isn’t a national holiday.

Pete wanted to guzzle green beer with a cheer heil

I think they’ll keep Columbus Day.

It's typical...I've been black in america 46 years so I expect it 🤷🏿‍♂️

I'm sure it remains to honor folks like Shaq.

Sounds about WHITE

Hegseth loves him some beer.

Good point! But is it necessary to inject a curse? What you said is strong enough as it is.

We are beyond being prim and proper!

And probably Columbus Day.

You mean Indigenous People's Day. That's what they want to cancel.

I said what I meant. Columbus Day, along with St. Patrick’s Day, will not be canceled.

Wait till they find out the snakes driven out were really a metaphor for witches. Then it'll go bye-bye.

Gee I wonder why

They were treated and drawn as animals. In NYC the tenement museum depicts life in the 5 points in the early 20th century. There was a heavy German presence in 1 building and one Irish family. Pictures drawn of the family were monkey-like but in clothing. Racism in every form is ridiculous

that observation is white on the money.

Jesus could not be white so will Easter be ‘blacked’ out ?

🤔

A preference for western European appearances? angelicadass.com/photography/...

I'm guessing Columbus Day will be all good too... 🤔

We still had Groundhog Day. That wasn't cancelled. Punxatawnee Phil must be white, huh?

They cancelled Christmas and Easter too?

Particularly odd since these folks are descendants of people who would have been very familiar with the term “Black Irish”. It’s like they don’t know their own history..

I think I may go back to school to study America and Russian history.

Only bc alcohol

🙋🏽 I know the answer to this one, teacher! It's because the Irish are white.

But "we" added Trump's Birthday! 🐷

This must be a joke... I hope Why?!

It's very white and heavy drinking is encouraged

And Columbus day....said the EXACT same thing today.

youtu.be/OIpgrZ8yS-Q?...

When is someone going to "cancel" Tramp?

Weird, right?

🤔🤔🤔

Not weird, just racist

Well you know Hegseth needed a reason to tip a few back and get drunk with his budies at the Pentagon.

St Patrick’s day is a white holiday. It’s the minority holidays they’re trying to get rid of. Republicans have no choice but to toe the line now. They know if the people win they will have to leave the country or become a recluse because they will have no peace. I will forever help make it so.

musk is a fifth grade bully in a school yard. They don’t go down until someone outs them down.

So he can drink copious amounts of alcohol 🍺

Has he cancelled MLK Day and Juneteenth yet? If he had any idea that many schools in the northeast are closed for certain Jewish, Hindu, and Muslim holidays, he’d be throwing ketchup for sure.

They like to drink.

Pete is a Sexual Abuser and an Alcoholic Drunk.

White people and an excuse to drink. Much bigger in the US than Ireland too, ironically. We barely notice it in Britain.

Trump will celebrate the anniversary of the creation of the Klan.

No kidding. It's almost like they just want white holidays. Anyone tell them Jesus wasn't white yet? Stupid racists.

& neither was Mary, so that means God isn't (certainly isn't orange)

True

The drinking holiday

Very weird, considering they all seem to be drunks, or pill poppers, or heroine addicts, etc.

Drunkard Hegseth needs an excuse to get smashed.

no he doesn't.

White Christian nationalists love those white boy holidays

It’s in line with this administration making sure that “others” know they don’t matter! 🤬 just don’t ask Byron or Tim about that!

I think you misspelled weird. W H I T E would be the proper spelling here.

Frat boys love green beer.

Isn't it? Then again, over-consumption of alcohol has become a feature of the day, in the US, and Irish have become white, too. Both right up Pete's alley!

Do they not know about the Black Irish?

Juneteenth is coming right up. Or maybe it isn’t.

maybe if the other holidays were more about getting wasted they would have had a shot?

The real tell will be with Cinco de Mayo.

Almost like it's exactly what the confederacy would do.

@saddamscribe.bsky.social wrote a great piece about that for the San Antonio Express News. I’m going with the idea that it’s all about the alcohol, though.

That's not weird at all if you're a white Christian nationalist.

A day where people have an excuse to get shit faced? And on a Monday? My dear, you have misread the American people.

Somebody is a dique!

And by "real fking wierd," you mean "totally on-brand," right? 😐

I remind myself that not that long ago American political cartoonists depicted the Irish as ape-like in order to dehumanize them.

There is no way a MAGA administration is going to cancel a holiday that at least in America revolves almost entirely about white people day drinking in public.

For real!!

Almost like the cancellations were just about racism, misogyny, and plain old bigotry. So very odd.

Wait til they remember that Biden is of Irish descent, and Obama is too!! www.irishamerica.com/2015/03/full...

I see he waited for St Patrick’s day before he departed. Good man.

If we insult Canada AND the Irish, nobody will buy our whiskey.

Shouldn’t Presidents’ Day have been cancelled?

Not Black. Not Women [only].

Drunky McDrunkerson probably wanted to hang on to that one.

Did they cancel Xmas?

Was Patrick a dei hire ?

You mean International Irish Stereotype Day?

Can’t wait to see what happens on May 5th.

I'm wondering about Oktoberfest. On the one hand, Germany (cuz Nazis). On the other hand, also Germany (cuz anti Trump).

for the Sec of Defense that is a sacred drinking celebration.

Irish were not “white” when they showed up in America. They were the “bad” immigrants of the day. Costing “real” Americans their jobs. Now, America without the Irish wouldn’t be America. Just like America, wouldn’t be America without all of our immigrant ancestors.

He's like Dr Jones, hates the snakes.

We're an advanced drinking nation.

Because booze. Christian values and all that

No Irish Need Apply. The way we're going, someone's going to have to dust off that sign.

The Irish are special.

Drunk employee independence day. No wonder Pete likes it.

Trump will cancel Passover too. He'll say its time we passed it over.

Hey. Thought you might want to know there's a typo You seem to have typed "weird" where you obviously meant "white" I'm sure it was just #StupidAutocorrect 😉

Well, it’s a pretty white holiday, so maybe that’s the reason.

They are white.

St. Patrick's Day isn't a Federal holiday or a state holiday in any of the states. It never has been. Banks, public schools, and government offices all are open. Catholic schools might be closed because of the whole "saint" thing, maybe.

I'm pretty sure it's not a state or federal holiday.

Yep. Weird, right? 🐍

I know what you mean but it’s not a National holiday.

Another holiday promoting profit over people! Hard pass!

Wait for Columbus Day

It's about alcohol, I suspect.

Beer companies have bent the knee and donated

My Papa took a job tailoring when he came from Ireland He wasn’t “white enough” for anything else in Boston. Learned 7 languages & built his own sewing machines & became the head tailor The Irish are one of the most diverse cultures globally now… Like Italians. People see what they want for power

The irony is that the Irish immigrants were not treated well by the US or the UK. I traced my genealogy and my Irish ancestors were even jailed in the UK and then put on boats to the US and Australia. History repeats itself today sadly with different immigrants.

From a Connecticut paper in 1900 - No Irish Need Apply

The Irish Diaspora in the the UK 8 million. ONS The Irish Diaspora in the United States 35 Million. USCB. Irish still resident in Ireland 5.5 million Northern Ireland 1.889 Million. ONS CSO. 🇮🇪🇪🇺

Irish people are white

Girl, I'm still waiting on the Chucklefucks in power to declare The Purge an Official US National Holiday(U are aware of the PURGE MOVIES??? Right?)....yep,I see it coming....a nite to murder & commit attrocities with MAGAT Blessings.....

Because they’re too dumb to know that the Irish fought for Mexico in the Mexico-American War, have fully supported Palestine, and basically haven’t tried to colonize anyone. Nearly every time they stick up for the oppressed. Did write a condolence letter to 🇩🇪 after THAT guy’s death though

The drinking holiday?

Sounds about white

Hegseth needed a drink.

Because alcohol?

My thoughts exactly.

Shhh...nobody use the phrase "black Irish" or it's done for too.

FFS this what is what Black Irish is:

Yes i get that, but these are the same people who went after Enola Gay and trans genetic mice

It is that Stupidity I wont deal with any longer.

neither will I. Just trying to make a little light humor in our hellscape sister.

Thank you i am a little emotionally charged right now. I needed you right now.

I get it. I feel it too. No harm, no foul. Just another day of endless stupidity smart people have to suffer through. At least we can try using humor to dull our pain ❤️

Just because the current regime decided to cancel them doesn't mean we have to. Don't let them steal your joy

alcoholism is a disease.

It’s part of the new annual year long Caucasian Supremacy Celebration festivities.

Petey boy declared it a DUI holiday and he’s okey dokey with those.

It's so very white .... isn't it?

Wait??!!!...WHAT???!!!... They did that??? For real??? Do you have the list of hollydays they cancelled? It would be interesting to get a post about this. Fuck Trump!!

Look up Trump gets rid of women’s history month, black history month, Juneteenth etc. federally he canceled any celebration of any cultural heritage. Any groups like women engineerers or Mexican postal workers can not meet. It’s confusing because nothing is specific and groups just disbanded.

Thank you

In schools on military bases, they were not allowed to teach about black history or women’s history. A friend of my mom‘s was just going to mix in her lessons during the year instead of just during the month of Feb. Like everything I’m not really sure if he thought it through before declaring it.

I feel like employees at the local concentration camp need to start making a dent in the unemployment numbers before the Irish become non white again

catholicsaints.mobi/calendar/17-...

Don’t worry they will still have Columbus Day too!

Because if they take away drinking we’ll riot. Alcohol is the only thing holding this fucker together.

Tracks, actually.

I’m sure we will get to keep Columbus Day as well. I mean, isn’t that national celebrate a rapist day?

An Irish holiday...

www.lonelyplanet.com/articles/st-...

Maybe an attempt at erasing that Church/State feature in the Constitution?

X Suspends Dropkick Murphys After Band Calls Out Concertgoer’s MAGA Hat www.forbes.com/sites/siladi...

That's because the Irish are so friendly and get around. Everybody's Irish!

Can’t touch the alcoholics holiday. Too many high ranking officials would be mad about missing out on their favorite day to neglect their families!

Wait till they find out Notre Dame has a black leprechaun.

Or this www.lonelyplanet.com/articles/st-...

No, not really... considering all the racist, misogynistic, anti LGBTQ rhetoric... this is his jam

Haven’t seen the state of SC declare an end to recognizing Confederates Day yet. Truly shocking.

bsky.app/profile/sken...

Hmmm, white would that be?

We all know why. HIPPOcrites!

Wanna bet they don’t cancel Cinco De Mayo?!?!?

We are on the verge of having our power cut off due to an overwhelming rise in electricity costs brought about by the increased need for shelter among trans individuals. Unfortunately, we cannot afford to pay this exorbitant bill.

DOGE has declared all white people holidays to be legal and sanctioned.

Why make St Patrick's Day an exception? I'm Irish, and I don't care one way or the other. Is Christmas still a holiday? I assume it would be with all the Christo-fascists in charge.

bsky.app/profile/sken...

Ironically, the only holiday based only on offense stereotypes.

Columbus Day and Thanksgiving Day chime in.

Real fking weird how St. Patrick’s Day isn’t and never has been a national holiday. 🤷

The Irish helped build America. Indentured slave labor and all that.

This day is primarily celebrated by white people. Really white people.

Total BS.

You might want to look up the island of Montserrat and you might want to look in Mexico and a number of other countries Because you’re wrong about that

you haven't been to toronto's St. Patrick's Day parade.

And now Trump wants a day to celebrate himself!🥳🤩

It’s not the same. DEI is for anything related to people of color or women. But Saint Patty’s is a DUI holiday. For the raging alcoholic in charge it’s right up there with Christmas

Eventually they will realize our red hair is the result of a genetic mutation and it will all be over for us.

We should just ignore him like he’s ignoring the judges…that’s on paper who is gonna stop me from celebrating? Fuck Trump!

They like their booze

This is such a dictator (tiny ) BS. We have kids stealing our money. We are on the verge of war I will celebrate all the holidays. No One Bosses me around.

Pete Hegseth celebrating....

St Patrick’s Day is not a national holiday.

They don't know their history. bsky.app/profile/blue...

bsky.app/profile/sken...

19th century Irish in America were poor and disease-ridden. They threatened American's jobs and strained welfare budgets. They practiced papacy and pledged allegiance to a foreign leader. They were all criminals and rapists. There are reputably 50K undocumented Irish in the US today.

Next will be a military parade like they do in Russia,comrades✋️

Irish are white again

Can’t stop P. Hegseth from getting all liquored up.

Yup, we gotta reinforce those stereotypes…

Ain't it obvious! White your right, black is wack, Hispanic causing panic..

It's Whiskey Petes's favorite holiday so the military all for it.

Because the Irish rapist Conor McGregor was coming to party with the White House rapists.

Have you met the SecDef? 🍸

I get the feeling Columbus Day is pretty safe, too.

Big difference. The Irish are white. Oh, I get it. lol

Wrong www.lonelyplanet.com/articles/st-...

White people like it when Us Irish blasted until we start fighting agsinst them

Irish is not white

Uh what 🤷🏿‍♂️ genuinely confused 🤔

The Irish or one of the most blended cultures on the planet with the largest diversity of those who claim direct lineage to the island

Most Irish can blend and assimilate but not me so I don't get what you're saying. America is multicultural but I'm still bkack

What I’m saying is being Irish does not mean being white it never has People forget ireland is one of the most invaded islands in the world and has a long history of various cultures invading the island

Did some research 77% Irish white 10% non irish white 7% asian 1.5% black iris in 2022

Just because all Irish aren't white is doesn't mean all Irish aren't white. For instance I am american but not white despite america being mostly white. There may be diversity but the prevailing culture is white

The prevailing culture is most definitely not white travelnoire.com/black-irish-...

Shhh, don't let that guy know.

I didn’t say they all weren’t. I said they were one of the most diverse ethnic backgrounds going in the world.

Are not or

I am a dual citizen and have lived there and moving back But there is Spanish and other connections that are heavily populated for centuries on the island along with all kinds of others

Also Spanish is European/white

Don’t confuse what you see in the United States with what Irish culture is The reality is the Irish never been really celebrated St. Patrick’s Day other than when they saw the opportunity for Tourism The first major parade geared around tourism was 1997

You’re incorrect

We still have "Superior to white Christian republican males" month, we just don't invite the short dick WCRMs. They would just ruin it like they do everything.

It's hilarious because the Irish despise the orange idiot and his administration.

One public and bank holiday every month, Plus 14 days paid Annual leave. 35 to 39 maximum 48 hour work week in Europe. Average after income tax $800. What's not to like. 🇮🇪🇪🇺

That’s cos St Paddy is “all white!” 🤬

And Thanksgiving, because nothing says “Happy Holidays” like some ethnic cleansing.

The WASP’s that attacked and discriminated against the Irish are the forebears of those who attack and discriminate against anyone today who is non white.

I’m going hard on Cinco de Mayo!

I completely understand your frustration Jess. #RainbowWarrior #Scouts #BlueCrew

Funny enough though they didn’t realize how hard the Irish go for human rights.

St pats isn't a national holiday ❤️

Could it be that is because the other holidays are not devoted to drinking?

You are absolutely white about that!

Yes, also the group that can say that they "immigrated legally" because there were no barriers to immigration then. 🙄 In case anyone is unsure, my family is part of that category, so I am fully aware. ☘️🤦‍♀️

Hegspeth needs an excuse to drink.

Let's get him some cheap whiskey! And hope he doesn't stop drinking.

Does he?

What's funny is that the Irish was considered the lower-class citizen than the black man back in the times where trump wants to put America back to. The Irish are the original DEI of America.

He will cancel the Dropkick Murphys tour soon.

it's not even like they need the excuse to get drunk, it's just more performative faith bullshit.

And what color do the Irish tend to be?

Well, here's a family secret, Patrick's granny wasn't Dutch...

Once upon a time the Irish & Italians were considered undesirable immigrants. Then they found new immigrants to dump on.
