Name an underrated Rob Reiner movie.

I'll start: Ghosts of Mississippi. I will never forget the scene of Whoopi Goldberg as Myrlie Evers, trying to scrub her husband's blood off the driveway. It stuck with me for years.

THE AMERICAN WORKER IS ALL OF US. Black, white, Latino, Asian, Native, immigrant, union or not. Not the “working class” stereotype.

We built this country. We keep it running. Stop dividing. Start recognizing.

She really is classless.

I’m sorry you all experienced that & now she wants to cosplay a BBC Princess Dianna moment.

And because of what happened to Princess Di, she figures, “if I’m unalived, America will think ya’ll ordered it.”

Siccing dogs on people is a slave tracker thing, a Bull Connor thing, a police brutality thing, a jackboot thug thing, an evil abuse of both dog and man which only a fully corrupted spirit could enact.
My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

NEW: Carol Loennig tells Nicoll Wallace on MSNOW that the DOJ intends to try and indict Letitia James a THIRD time.

The trouble with that is these multiple tries help James prove her vindictive and selective prosecution bid, and bolster a case to get the grand jury materials.

Trump isn’t hiding the hypocrisy: blowing up vessels and people to fight the drug war while pardoning a drug kingpin who facilitated tons upon tons of cocaine to enter the US…
Trump announces a “full and unconditional” pardon for Juan Orlando Hernandez, a former president of Honduras sentenced to 45 years for drug trafficking and weapons offenses.

My latest on Trump’s continued abuse of the presidential pardon power:

All the Afghans who risked their lives and security to help US troops? Yeah, F YOU, says the Trump Admin.
