Little Black Sambo 

Contrary to popular belief, this is not just an insult.
Little Black Sambo was a series of children's books from the early- to mid-20th century. It centered around the titular character--a little African-American boy named Sambo--playing in the dirt, having a slice of watermelon, and doing many other things. As you may have guessed, this series is and was EXTREMELY racist. However, at the time it was considered very popular. If your parents or grandparents were children during the 50's or 60's, then ask them about Sambo, because chances are they'll remember him.
It can also be used as a derogatory term, which is explored to a greater length in the other definition of this word.
My grandmother gave me a book that she had as a little girl called Little Black Sambo. It was kind of racist...

Little Black Sambo 

Little Black Sambo is a dergoitory term for an african american whom one finds as weak, or physically inferior yet also of black heritage. Also was a small african child featured in a Looneytoons cartoon for when Looneytoons was still good.

Little black sambo is also one of the best comebacks to "Whiteboy" you aren't expected to say anything other than blackboy as a comeback but when you pull the LBS they have no idea what you say. Best used if followed by a British explorer accent to humor them to prevent an assault, similar to what Wild Bill said in the Green Mile.
Black guy: Hey, White boy!

White guy: Little black sambo.

Black guy: What???

White guy: (Strong english accent) Yes sir, yes sir! How do you do?!

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
