160 years ago, on June 19, 1865, the Emancipation Proclamation was enforced in its final location. Today, we also recognize the amount of work that remains to be done to bring true equality to our country. While we celebrate the end of slavery, we know that it’s not truly over. Happy Juneteenth

Yesterday, more than 400 attendees gathered in downtown Gallatin for the “No Kings” rally. Hosted by Indivisible Sumner, it served as an example of the First Amendment in action. “No Kings” was both peaceful and lawful - a clear reminder that unity and civic engagement remain stronger than fear.

I’m recognized around minute 28.5 This library board is a travesty. It’s nice that some issues got tabled but we aren’t out of the woods yet. All 16 of the public speakers were against these Orwellian policies and the chair just wanted to push the hated policy through anyways.

If you have to repeatedly break the law to arrest those you claim have broken the law, you’re not enforcing the law. ICE has morphed into a terrorizing Gestapo-like goon squad. They must be held accountable.

I’m also incensed that we are seeing people being disappeared off the street and life just goes on as if they weren’t there in the first place. The things I personally enjoy are turning to ashes in my mouth. Sports and celebrity were fun distractions but our Country is all the way off the rails.

I think among the worst parts of this current administration is just seeing this bumbling jackass almost constantly. The media not pushing back on clear falsehoods. Like if this guy can be president why don’t you just make me head of NASA I kinda understood ‘Interstellar’

“The state has the capacity to help us all survive and even thrive but in its current form, it is actively opposed to doing so. We must have the will to survive in collectivity, as people who are willing to seize, defy, and upend whatever they must for the sake of life, dignity, and decency.”

ICE has begun raiding the homes of American citizens. A widely shared story out of Oklahoma describes a disturbing incident where a woman and her children were dragged into their yard half-naked. Reports are mounting across multiple states of agents targeting the wrong properties.
