Right on to this man for speaking truth to power. I was just talking to my buddy about this. Let me just add: the reason Black folks need to sit this one out (for now). In large numbers, cops see us as a threat and escalate. Trust me—you don’t want to give Trump a reason to declare martial law.

A petition calling for Trump’s impeachment, run by the group Free Speech For People, has now passed 250,000 signatures. To be clear, I fully support the immediate impeachment and removal of both Trump and Vance. As should everyone.

Since they are removing all mentions of women in the military, I urge every woman in the military, veteran or have a loved one in the military, to register their names with the Military Women's Memorial in DC. womensmemorial.org It was built by donations and is non-profit.

Senator Bernie Sanders delivered a powerful speech before a packed crowd in Kenosha, Wisconsin. 4,000+ showed and 1,000 + were in the overflow area. This is the type of energy and speech we’ve been waiting for. I’m glad we could cover it youtu.be/6zSrXBg1NTU
