George Washington (February 22, 1732-December 14, 1799) was the commander-in-chief of the Army during the American Revolutionary War from 1775 to 1783. He became the first president of the United States in 1789 (he also became the world’s first head of state with the title of “President”). He won unanimous support from the electoral college in two consecutive elections and served as president until In 1797, he was the only president of the United States who has won the support of all the Electoral Colleges so far.
In the early years of the Anglo-French North American War, Washington served as a colonial officer supporting the British Empire. Later, in the American Revolutionary War, he led the Continental Army to win American independence. He rejected the proposal of some colleagues who wanted him to lead the military regime, and returned to Mount Vernon in 1783 to resume civilian life.
Because he played the most important role in the American War of Independence and the founding of the nation, Washington is often referred to as one of the "founding fathers of the United States." As a master slave owner with 317 black slaves, Washington is also a controversial historical figure. In recent years, the fate of black people has been the fate of social movements and Jefferson and other figures have been re-examined and reflected by American society.
In the voting event "The Greatest American" organized by AOL in 2005, Washington was voted the 4th greatest person in the United States.

George Washington (February 22, 1732-December 14, 1799) was the commander-in-chief of the Army during the American Revolutionary War from 1775 to 1783. He became the first president of the United States in 1789 (he also became the world’s first head of state with the title of “President”). He won unanimous support from the electoral college in two consecutive elections and served as president until In 1797, he was the only president of the United States who has won the support of all the Electoral Colleges so far.
In the early years of the Anglo-French North American War, Washington served as a colonial officer supporting the British Empire. Later, in the American Revolutionary War, he led the Continental Army to win American independence. He rejected the proposal of some colleagues who wanted him to lead the military regime, and returned to Mount Vernon in 1783 to resume civilian life.
Because he played the most important role in the American War of Independence and the founding of the nation, Washington is often referred to as one of the "founding fathers of the United States." As a master slave owner with 317 black slaves, Washington is also a controversial historical figure. In recent years, the fate of black people has been the fate of social movements and Jefferson and other figures have been re-examined and reflected by American society.
In the voting event "The Greatest American" organized by AOL in 2005, Washington was voted the 4th greatest person in the United States.

George Washington (February 22, 1732-December 14, 1799) was the commander-in-chief of the Army during the American Revolutionary War from 1775 to 1783. He became the first president of the United States in 1789 (he also became the world’s first head of state with the title of “President”). He won unanimous support from the electoral college in two consecutive elections and served as president until In 1797, he was the only president of the United States who has won the support of all the Electoral Colleges so far.
In the early years of the Anglo-French North American War, Washington served as a colonial officer supporting the British Empire. Later, in the American Revolutionary War, he led the Continental Army to win American independence. He rejected the proposal of some colleagues who wanted him to lead the military regime, and returned to Mount Vernon in 1783 to resume civilian life.
Because he played the most important role in the American War of Independence and the founding of the nation, Washington is often referred to as one of the "founding fathers of the United States." As a master slave owner with 317 black slaves, Washington is also a controversial historical figure. In recent years, the fate of black people has been the fate of social movements and Jefferson and other figures have been re-examined and reflected by American society.
In the voting event "The Greatest American" organized by AOL in 2005, Washington was voted the 4th greatest person in the United States.

NIN’s new release is the third of a trilogy that started with 2016’s “Not the Actual Events” and includes 2017’s “Add Violence,” and documents the downward spiral (if you will) of society.
Speaking to the New York Times, Reznor said the thinly veiled anti-Trump overtones of his new work comes from an obligation he feels to use his influence to address current events. He also said, “You don’t hear a lot from the Taylor Swifts of the world, and top-tier, needle-moving cultural youth, because they are concerned about their brand, their demographic and their success and career and whatnot.”
And there you have it: a celebrity beef between the 50-something industrial rocker and the 20-something pop star.
Fittingly, the easily distracted nature of a society bound for hell is key to the condition that besets the agonized central character of the spellbinding “Bad Witch,” a six-song collection that finds grim beauty in fatalism, a sonic mix of chaotic aggression and abject resignation.
Reznor is consumed by the bracing distortion of the opening track as he observes, “I’m becoming something new/It’s getting hard to recognize” – a thought further delineated in the agitated percolation of the subsequent “Ahead of Ourselves,” where he notes, “Not quite as clever as we think we are/Knuckle-dragging animal/When we could have done anything.” He shuts down higher-power salvation, too, on “God Bread Down the Door”: “You won’t find the answers here/Not the ones you came looking for.”

NIN’s new release is the third of a trilogy that started with 2016’s “Not the Actual Events” and includes 2017’s “Add Violence,” and documents the downward spiral (if you will) of society.
Speaking to the New York Times, Reznor said the thinly veiled anti-Trump overtones of his new work comes from an obligation he feels to use his influence to address current events. He also said, “You don’t hear a lot from the Taylor Swifts of the world, and top-tier, needle-moving cultural youth, because they are concerned about their brand, their demographic and their success and career and whatnot.”
And there you have it: a celebrity beef between the 50-something industrial rocker and the 20-something pop star.
Fittingly, the easily distracted nature of a society bound for hell is key to the condition that besets the agonized central character of the spellbinding “Bad Witch,” a six-song collection that finds grim beauty in fatalism, a sonic mix of chaotic aggression and abject resignation.
Reznor is consumed by the bracing distortion of the opening track as he observes, “I’m becoming something new/It’s getting hard to recognize” – a thought further delineated in the agitated percolation of the subsequent “Ahead of Ourselves,” where he notes, “Not quite as clever as we think we are/Knuckle-dragging animal/When we could have done anything.” He shuts down higher-power salvation, too, on “God Bread Down the Door”: “You won’t find the answers here/Not the ones you came looking for.”
