Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

For a large swath of the U.S. population, checkpoints on their way home are a regular part of life, where they must affirm that they are citizens or have legal residency in the U.S.
Immigration checkpoints are a way of life in areas within 100 miles from U.S. borders
Undocumented families living between the border and checkpoints are "like in a cage," said a South Texas social worker.

Trump is the third US president to pardon insurrectionists. Pardons by the previous two - Andrew Johnson in 1868 and Ulysses S. Grant in 1873 - were followed by years of violent racism and the rise of the KKK.

The US has pardoned insurrectionists twice before – and both times, years of violent racism followed
It’s not yet clear whether Trump’s pardons will herald a period of national harmony – as past presidents hoped for – or more incidents of violence, as actually resulted.
