Jackie Robinson’s story remains resonant, as evidenced by both the continued celebrations and the attempts to tear it down.

With all due respect, Harvard is one of if not the wealthiest universities in the world based on size of its endowments. Standing up to authoritarian demands should not be a fund raiser. Principles and ethics are their own reward.

So far nothing from Trump about the fire bombing of Gov Shapiro’s home on Passover. The man is incapable of expressing any empathy toward a perceived enemy. So much so that he can’t even fake it.

Trump’s team is gaslighting America into accepting a steep recession as some temporary pain that’s good for them. Funny how the people responsible for inflicting this pain won’t suffer at all.

I know it’s been beat to death but it’s worth saying again; when you put an inexperienced and demonstrably unqualified former talk show host in charge of the most powerful military establishment in the world “mistakes will be made.” Really?? And let us not forget who put him there.

“Law firms refuse to represent Trump opponents in the wake of his attacks”-WAPO  The result is an extraordinary threat to constitutional rights of due process and legal representation. Trump tactics win and we are all fucked!! Do you know how to boil a frog? Well that’s us.

Though hard numbers are unavailable it’s clear that Trump voter support by veterans has fallen substantially since 2016 citing his ongoing attacks on the military. So in the true Trump fashion if you’re not loyal to him and don’t support him he doesn’t care about you. Vengeance and retribution.

“State Department halts global monitoring of air pollution ending a program that had provided data about a major global health risk.” Data. The enemy of oppressive regimes.

Trump is a schoolyard bully who only picks battles where he has a a predetermined large advantage and usually with smaller opponents. I won’t comment on why he’s abandoning our allies and siding with Russia but will say that he would never confront Putin in the manner he did Zelenskyy.

Trump’s administration has already fired: More than a dozen prosecutors who worked on criminal cases against Trump, 18 inspectors general, an FEC commissioner and the head of the Office of Government Ethics. This isn't normal, and in many cases, it’s illegal.

One thing is certain. When there’s the inevitably disaster with many more people killed or injured because there wasn’t sufficient advanced notice to prepare or evacuate Yrump will barely notice, won’t care, and unlikely to make a supporting cite visit….unless it’s close to the midterm election.

Trump is nothing more then a schoolyard bully. He’s got nothing and now the whole world sees what a coward he is. The EU and NATO will circle the wagons isolating Trump and Putin and wait to pick up the pieces when Trump is gone. And he will be gone. Damage control until then.

WATCH: Mike Myers makes a surprise “SNL” cameo as Elon Musk in a cold-open spoof of Zelenskyy’s disastrous meeting with Trump, our incompetent Bully-in-Chief. The whole country is laughing at our fucking embarrassment of a president.

“The Trump administration is considering ending all ongoing shipments of military aid to Ukraine in response to Zelensky’s Oval Office remarks and his perceived intransigence in the peace process.” Further evidence of Trump’s total lack of understanding of what’s at stake and his deference to Putin.

Trump has exposed himself in the most blatant fashion. There’s no way he can nor will he “walk back” his turn against our Eastern European and NATO allies , on 75 years of the most successful peacekeeping alliance in history to realign the country with a viscous dictatorship and our # 1 enemy.

Trump's 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭 to our ally in the Oval Office is a DAMN SHAME. Denigrating a democratic world leader while sitting next to him has not only jeopardized our work with global allies. Once again, Trump's ego just put our national security at risk.

“RFK Jr. Takes a Sledgehammer to Two Major Vaccine Developments” To all GOP Senators: You all knew this would happen; people will die because you put RFK, Jr in office. Their deaths are on you. Party loyalty isn’t worth it. Keeping your job isn’t worth it.
