Kamala Harris: "The Supreme Court made the decision that the president would be immune from any of his conduct while in office. So we went into the election with this individual, Donald Trump, knowing that he would essentially be immune from any consequence for misbehavior while in office."

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

In the theme of peaceful protest- I suggest we take a page from Chile's ¡Eres Tú! method of protest- Perhaps a unifying song/anthem would be helpful. Sorry I'm not that talented to help there.

⚠️Dig safely at the beach this summer ⚠️
More people die from sand collapses than shark attacks. Keep holes shallow (no deeper than the knee height of the shortest person in your group) and remember to fill them in before you leave.

Dig safely when building sandcastles and tunnels this summer – collapsing sand holes can cause suffocation and even death
