I recommend listening to President Clinton's concerns about the ideas and sentiments expressed in Tee's speech in front of the Mount Rushmore monument. What the prez said should concern everyone who cares about democracy.

Anyone in the area of Fort Worth TX should listen up - this is a RED ALERT! For others, a cautionary tale: these "data" (surveillance?) centers are trying to spring up everywhere.

Proposed data center would pull from lake that supplies most of Fort Worth’s water

Mass deportations would be felt across hospitals and emergency rooms, which already face persistent staffing shortfalls. The long-term healthcare sector will suffer the greatest disruptions, experts say.

CEO pay is up 1,094% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 26%. Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

Clarence Thomas says the 14th Amendment should be read narrowly because it was written for formerly enslaved people. By that logic, the 2nd Amendment was written for muskets, not AR-15s. Funny how that kind of originalism only shows up when it's convenient.

Native American Tribes Came Together to Secure Their Rights to Colorado River Water. Four States Are Stalling the Deal.
Colorado, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming are resisting the deal because it would allow the Navajo and Hopi to lease water to cities downstream, likely the growing towns around Phoenix.

Additional thoughts on Slaughter: SCOTUS 6-3 gives Trump the power to fire independent agency officials in the federal government, without cause. This is a major shift in operation of federal government and expansion of presidential power. Follow

Just as the Supreme Court blocked Trump from firing the Federal Reserve Governor, it will allow him to fire the Democratic commissioner on the Federal Trade Commission. SCOTUS voted along ideological lines that the FTC “for cause” removal provision violated the separation of powers.

The Declaration of Independence should be read aloud in full (not just the preamble) and played across all social media during the week of July 4th. That would probably make Republican's heads pop off.

There are security cameras that are active 24-7 monitoring the Reflecting Pool. There is no need to deploy troops or security equipment. With what Trump described today, where is the video? Why was the vandalism allowed to happen if the security cameras were watching? Wouldn’t it have been stopped?
