Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say β€œSend me” wherever we have a chance to make an impact.

How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.

To disperse looters during 2020 unrest, Des Moines police officer, a β€œless-lethal munitions expert” who is in β€œfear for his life,” rides around in a Bearcat shooting people without warning or command. People like this plaintiff, who wasn’t rioting or looting and who suffered a broken finger. Eighth Circuit: Because the officer didn’t intend to arrest her, there’s no Fourth Amendment claim, and, because he didn’t intend to harm her, there is no Fourteenth Amendment claim.

Graves: There’s been reporting that some troops have been told that this is about starting Armageddon.

Warner: I don’t know whether that’s coming from the White House or just from specific military commanders.

Why Jasmine Crockett lost the Dem primary to James Talarico Crockett embarked on her primary bid with a makeshift operation that lacked a campaign manager, a developed fundraising strategy and comprehensive infrastructure for a ground game.

One reason Crockett lost to Talarico: She did not have a campaign manager for the entirety of her run, and while she delegated components of her campaign to trusted advisers, she largely managed operations herself. Talarico outraised her 5 to 1.

one of the finer pleasures for me in life is lying on my back in a #forest & gazing straight up at old giants, with wind in the trees & the sound of flowing water nearby. those moments when nothing else matters but the view.

Calling in the Clinton’s in for a closed-door testimony while ignoring other widely implicated individuals is no mistake. This is an active, and massive, cover-up.

Fifty years after New Zealand stopped whaling, humpback population showing signs of recovery Breeding is getting more competitive, suggesting the population is growing, a new study shows.

This is a marvelous change not only for the Humpback whale πŸ‹ population but for all of us. We need to keep our gentle giants from going extinct.

Tell the Senate what you think. If Senate Democrats don’t have the backbone to stand up to this, let them know they wil have to stand in front of us in November.

Noem is out largely due to massive public activism, especially in MN, Democrats expressing increasing interest in impeachment and investigations, and resulting media coverage.

Keep pushing. These people are not invincible or immune from public opinion.

Trump Says 'I Guess' Americans Should Worry About Iran Retaliating on U.S. Soil: 'Like I Said, Some People Will Die' In an interview with 'Time,' President Donald Trump acknowledged the possibility that Iran retaliates with attacks on U.S. soil, saying, 'We think about it all the time. We plan for it'

This is what you say after you put a 22 year old noob in charge of America's counter-terrorism unit.
