I was fortunate to sit next to Bill Moyers at a 1997 League of Conservation Voters dinner in Manhattan. Here is the text of the speech he gave that night. It is my privilege to share it now. 1/2

Trump promising to rescue non-violent Iranian protesters being brutalized by their government as here at home he authorizes and condones non-violent *American* protesters being brutalized by *his* government (to include urging that they be shot in the legs) is certainly a new take on "America First"

Did you know that the homicide rate in NYC is roughly 20% the homicide rate in Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana and Tennessee? If you watch Fox News, you don't know that. Fox has been smearing the Apple with false claims about crime for a decade now.

Smith: He was getting calls from people he trusts, people he relies on—and he still refused to come to the aid of the people at the Capitol. That’s very important evidence for criminal intent in our case.

Imagine if scientists could figure out how Earth's climate has varied for hundreds of millions of years, build sophisticated computers to project how humans are now radically altering it, and warn the public, only to have greedy corporations & venal politicians ignore them. Criminal. Immoral. Evil.

If Ukraine did attack Putin's home, US Intelligence would have confirmed it to back up Trump, who indicated that he believed Putin. The fact that they have not confirmed it means that Putin is lying & Trump is backing up Putin's lie as a pretext to end all peace negotiations.

More people need to know this: In Epstein’s 2008 federal deal, prosecutors agreed not to pursue federal charges against Epstein or any unnamed “potential co-conspirators.” That functioned as protection for people involved before 2008, similar to immunity.

The Trump Admin is wantonly abusing executive power and conducting warrantless spying. But Dan Goldman handed him the ability to do it by voting against a warrant requirement for using NSA surveillance of US citizens last year.

It’s truly amazing how Zelensky is able to see up close and personal what Putin is doing to his country and its people day after day with barbarity and cruelty, then stand next to Trump without losing it while he makes asinine statements expressing sympathy for the mass murderer.

President Trump’s spiteful defamation suit against the Pulitzer Prize Board may backfire, as the latter is now demanding Trump’s psychological records, prescription medication records, and tax returns in the discovery process.
