Happy, inspiring Juneteenth, y'all! Americans enslaved & terrorized other Americans for centuries. A coalition of enslavers fought to maintain this power. Other Americans defeated them. It is our turn to advance liberty against forces of oppression, our turn to keep America's ideals alive.

When I tell people it's obvious Trump is trying to create a fascist dictatorship, they grow quiet and uncomfortable. They don't argue with me because they know it's true. Even so, they hate hearing it. Because it makes them feel helpless. But we're not helpless. Get active now, while you can.

Masked federal agents just illegally arrested New York City’s elected Comptroller. Outrageous. The Trump Administration went after Brad Lander for asking this simple question: “Do you have a warrant?” By asking this question, Brad was standing up for the basic rights of all Americans.

Based on how these men are dressed how would you know who they are, who they are working for, what their authority is? No badges, no uniforms, at lease some are without masks this time.

Hard to stay focused on writing a report today about how badly Trump's renegotiation of NAFTA failed when the president is stumble-tweeting us to war. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

America is one of those countries where if you host a global sporting event, inclusive messages have to be censored to so as not to anger the central government. In this case the message is “racism is bad” www.nytimes.com/athletic/643...
