dailymemphian.com/section/arts... there was a the April 4th Foundation remembrance.Father Michal Pfleger electrified the crowd, remembering Dr. King and chastising religion for its many lapses in America. I was honored to receive the Open Door award for my civil rights efforts in spirit of MLK

As the crowd at #HandsOff Boston files into City Hall Plaza, someone got up on a barrier waving the flag, and folks started singing the Star Spangled Banner. This too is America.
www.nytimes.com/2025/04/03/u... Trump is using antisemitism to appeal to Jews and to get at his educated opposition in the Ivy schools, which his base detests. If he really wanted to go after antisemitism, he’d go after the KKK neo-Nazis proud boys but no, “They’re fine people on both sides.”
Catastrophic rain, tornadoes, flooding throughout the central US and my state of Tennessee. Trump/Musk and doge “geniuses” decimated FEMA and NOAA. And the NIH and CDC. Government is supposed to protect the people and keep them safe and healthy and Doge and Trump and Musk doing just the opposite!
Tariffs are taxes.The stock market is a measure of Trumps economic folly. Trump has wrecked our thriving economy and our social safety and health network. 47 is a monstrous out of control man-child.😫
Trump's tariff wars are making everything more expensive. And it’s about to get worse. And while we're paying more for food, medicine, appliances and car repairs, the GOP wants to slash Medicaid, Social Security, SNAP & more to give billionaires a tax cut. They do not care about working people.
First, the Trump admin started clawing back air quality funds I helped secure for Memphis. Now they’re letting companies apply for secret exemptions from the Clean Air Act—no names, no accountability. I wrote the EPA demanding the name of everyone from TN-9 on that list. We're going to find out.

Trump is lashing out with new executive orders targeted at specific law firms like Jenner&Block and WilmerHale. Why? Because they had the guts to hold him accountable. Trump can't understand and doesn't care about the Constitution, checks & balances, none of it. He wants blind loyalty and revenge

Spent 3 hours tonight in Senate chamber being inspired, uplifted, and wowed by Sen.Corey Booker Record breaking 25 hour lesson in the corruption and illegal conduct of the Trump/ Musk regime. And it was bookended and spirited with John Lewis and Good Trouble. Thank you John and Corey!

Trump isn't joking about a 3rd term. He says “a lot of people” want it—the same ones who want to see him in a robe & crown. But the Constitution doesn't allow for kings or 3rd terms. He swore an oath to the Constitution. Not to "a lot of people", or the mob that tried to overthrow it on January 6.

Musk tells Wisconsin a Democratic Supreme Court could gerrymander the Republican seats, but he doesn’t mention that the Republican court could gerrymander Democratic seats. Conveniently, he doesn’t mention that he has a case to allow the manufacturer of Tesla to have a Tesla dealership in Wisc.
