“A Coming Storm” by Sanford Robinson Gifford.

“The future ain’t what it used to be.”

Yogi Berra
Pinned
“I never knew a man
Could tell so many lies
He had a different story
For every set of eyes
How can he remember
Who he's talkin' to?
'Cause I know it ain't me
And I hope it isn't you”

Neil Young/Ambulance Blues, On the Beach

Nixon Watergate-era lyric applies more perfectly to Trump!

On Juneteenth, we commemorate the news of emancipation finally reaching America's last enslaved people, and we recommit to fighting to deliver the true promise of America for all, even against right-wing backlash.

As someone raised to believe faith should make you a more compassionate human being, the saddest thing about the government-sanctioned hatred, legislated terrorism, and human rights erasures we're seeing right now is that none of them would be possible without white Christians.

Attacks on judiciary must stop, before someone is harmed for nothing more than propaganda.
One thread of a creepy campaign.

Trump doesn't have “conflicts of interest” anymore.

A “conflict of interest” sounds like an unfortunate situation where Trump might choose his own interests over the nation’s.

But Trump isn’t conflicted about anything.

He's the most corrupt president in American history.

So let me get this straight: masks are bad and un-American if worn to fight a pandemic, but good if worn by people claiming to be government agents when they kidnap people off the street

It's tough to refer to someone as a criminal if you've given them no due process to determine whether they're a criminal. Like if you get arrested and get a trial and are convicted of 34 felony counts. That's due process. You can call that guy a criminal.

If guilty people don't have Due Process rights, then innocent people don't have Due Process rights, because we don't know if they're innocent or guilty until we have a trial or hearing.

Just one more area where the Heritage Foundation wants to tell you what to think. Is there anyone at HF who has any expertise in medicine?

AOC: Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to DOJ because I’m using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections… to that I say: Come for me… Do I look like I care?

There’s nothing illegal about it and if they want to make it illegal, they can come take me.

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, the Supreme Court’s newest member, denounced on Thursday what she described as "relentless attacks" on judges, and an environment of harassment that "ultimately risks undermining our Constitution and the rule of law."
