RIP to Jesse Jackson. His funeral is today. I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.

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.

President Trump's Pardons: An Embarrassment of Riches At least the specter of corruption in previous presidential administrations (Clinton’s pardon of Marc Rich or Biden’s pardon of his son) appeared to be an exception to the rule. Today, however, the ev...

"Biden’s pardons eliminated roughly $680,000 in financial penalties owed to victims or the government. In contrast, Trump’s second-term pardons have forgiven criminal debts of more than $1.5 billion."

We shall not see the likes of the great Reverend Jesse Jackson again. He leaves us with a legacy our state will never forget.

Rest in my power, my friend.

Congress needs to end this illegal war.

I’m calling on all my colleagues to vote yes on the bipartisan War Powers Resolution today.

The Department of Justice has sued 30 states and DC for access to their unreacted sensitive voter data. My law firm is fighting them in all 30 cases.

We are dedicating so many resources because these are the most important legal fights and the future of free and fair elections is at stake.

I hide mine because I know Kung Fu. Which means if I’m attacked, I may not kill you, but I will put you in the hospital.

Ben Stiller is calling out the White House after it used a clip from Tropic Thunder in a video promoting the Iran war.

β€œWe never gave you permission and have no interest in being part of your propaganda machine. War is not a movie,” Stiller wrote.

So how much classified information did Putin get and is he still getting it because Trump is an office?
It seemed that Ukraine was doing better when they didn’t share any information with the United States.

So were those millionaires supposed to take all their tax savings and open up more jobs and factories and give higher pay to the employees?

My daughter did that in a parking lot when we got out to go eat at a restaurant and nearly got hit, but that was a slower moving car.

It's horrifying to see US politicians and pundits evoke the 6 US soldiers killed in their unprovoked war of aggression, while ignoring the 1000s of Iranians killed. It assumes that Americans only care about American lives. Which is evil, obviously.

Same with not voting for Hillary Clinton because of her emails and all of the shade that kept been throwing on her that got Trump nominated and then see how he turned all that around and he was 1000 times worse than whatever inpropriety he said about Hillary Clinton.

One report I heard said that that area used to hold some kind of military installation before it was converted to a girl school, but of course nobody updates their files anymore.

Even Bill Clinton admitted that Jeffrey Epstein probably used him to give an advantage of legitimacy for his β€œbusiness.”
Along with all the money, laundering and blackmail.
