The Juneteenth flag symbolizes liberation. The star marks Texas, where the enslaved were freed in Galveston in 1865. The arc is a new horizon, and the red, white & blue colors affirm that the enslaved are American. 64 days to Slavery Remembrance Day. #CountdowntoSRD

I’m at Cumberland Gap National Park in Tennessee reading signs about how people came through here in the late 1700’s with their “African servants.” Wtf.

Seeing as ICE is evidently just deputized internet trolls in fake XXXL military/gang wear without badges or identification, it seems like it would be easy to don the gear and become one of them, on-site. What horrible confusion that would cause.

🧵The largest plantation in the South burned down this week.
And the way white folks—especially wedding vendors—are mourning “memories” and “brides who won’t get to have their special day there”?

It’s giving cognitive dissonance.

Because let’s be real...

The media doesn't want you to see that it's not a jail, it's slavery.
one of the tasks of the American left is to explain to retail and service workers that this is the future that America has planned for them

America, you f**ked up!

She warned us. She had a plan that would have benefited everyday Americans. But too many ignored her—because it was never really about the economy.

Now folks are scared, struggling—and we’re cooked.

Every time something embarrassing for Trump hits the news I get worried about what he’ll do to knock it out of the headlines. Feels like there must be some domestic analogue to this . . .

It is a sad day for the legal industry. Paul Weiss, didn't just bend a knee, it set a new standard for shameful capitulation. This is a stain on the firm, every one of its partners, and the entire legal profession.

Holy shit. This is *the* gold-standard measurement of atmospheric CO2 -- the one in all the charts.
The Trump administration is planning to cancel its lease at a government laboratory in Hawaii, a site where scientists support key observations of surging greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere, according to a list obtained by Democratic members of Congress and shared with The Post.
Trump moves to close facility that helps track planet-warming pollution
The lab is connected to the Mauna Loa Observatory, where scientists gather data to produce the Keeling Curve, a chart on the daily status of atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations.
