I likely first saw this when I was four years old. Now I see Reverend Jackson's impact on my soul. May his memory be a blessing.

Enforcement is a choice and we have the resources. We need the will.
“Washington made a choice. A choice to let the laws turn to rust.”
Here’s former Assistant AG for the U.S. Antitrust Division Jonathan Kanter on how Trump’s admin is failing to enforce the antitrust laws on the books. And how we can actually lower costs for Americans.

if you’re curious about understanding more about where the album and this performance come from—the gentrification of the island, the LUMA power outage reference—a good primer is his documentary film youtu.be/1TCX_Aqzoo4

This is powerful.
Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

One terrible wrong made right. So many more to go.
Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.
Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

Inundation Infrastructure: City and Community Provide New Solutions for Flooding in Providence - ecoRI News

Again with this. Trump failed twice to stop Revolution Wind, creating ridiculous delays to critically needed energy innovation. 58 of 65 wind turbines are installed, and it should have been fully operational by the 2nd half of 2026, delivering power to 350,000+ customers in CT & RI by year’s end.
