If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage. The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.” It’s about control.

While Trump calls Democrats “demented & evil people” & bitterly sows division, Washington talked of national unity:”it is of infinite moment that you should properly estimate the immense value of your national Union to your collective & individual happiness.” www.americaamerica.news/p/washington...

LA DODGERS just now: “This morning, ICE agents came to Dodger Stadium and requested permission to access the parking lots. They were denied entry to the grounds by the organization. Tonight’s game will be played as scheduled.” Right on, Dodgers! More of this, please.

“These stories [from formerly enslaved people] remind us freedom is not a given—it demands we do the hard work of making and remaking the path forward.” www.americaamerica.news/p/the-compli...

"You can't bomb away knowledge. Iran knows how to do the entire fuel cycle. They will reconstitute their program, and likely do it underground and in secret." Wendy Sherman Former U.S. Dep. Sec. of State, on the downstream effects that could be triggered if America takes an offensive role in Iran.

Remember that Juneteenth is a federal holiday because Joe Biden signed this day into law to commemorate freedom.

A couple points re: Iran: 1.) Sticking with the deal we had w/Iran on nukes would've been smarter 2.) Striking Iran's nuclear program is likely just to slow it down not stop it 3.) The risks associated with such a strike include Iranian escalation against US & allied targets
