“I want to make a special appeal to soldiers, national guardsmen, and policemen: each of you is one of us. The peasants you kill are your own brothers and sisters. When you hear a man telling you to kill, remember God’s words, ‘thou shalt not kill.’” Óscar Romero, El Salvador, March 23, 1980.

Watch as this LAPD cop takes deliberate aim at an Australian reporter, then shoots her at close range. I would fire the police chief over this. Inexcusable thuggery.

Trump keeps whining that federal judges are abusing their authority. But to what end? They don’t get anything but grief and threats from standing up to Trump. They aren’t stopping him for their own benefit. They rule against him to keep us from tumbling into autocracy. They’re modern day heroes.

I took this pic of then Vice President Joe Biden in the Oval Office back in September 2015. I’ll never forget how, during the 2020 campaign, he would make a point of saying the press is NOT the enemy of the people. Thinking of President Biden as he takes on this next battle. Godspeed Mr. President.
