The Dodgers actions on this day mean nothing after having just gone to visit the man who's responsible for trying to erase Robinson's legacy from all government websites, and is getting the MLB to renounce diversity as well. 🖕
On this day in 1947, Jackie Robinson broke MLB'S color barrier, making him the first Black player to play in the majors.

Rubio terminated 5800 USAID contracts – more than 90% of its foreign aid programs – in defiance of the courts.
Here’s a list of just some of the lifesaving awards that were terminated. Nearly all were Congressionally mandated. They’ve saved millions of lives. 🧵

Appreciate The Marshall Project for reaching out to me. All too often, folks write about fire camps without talking to people who’ve been to fire camps. Not the case here.
